    @O2 my sim stopped working, I can’t ring 202, can’t go to your shops and your live chat is down. Please help

  • kathrynbaird_ Kathryn Baird (@kathrynbaird_) reported from Cramlington, England

    @O2 do you actually talk to your customers? I’ve been trying to contact you all week via the app, have called numerous times to be hung up on by an automated service and can’t get through to you at all. You’ve charged me twice for my bill & disconnected me even though I’ve paid!

  • andyphilipson Bilbo Gubbins (@andyphilipson) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Hey I just received a text claiming to be from yourselves saying there’s been a problem processing my bill and gives me a link to update my payment details. Pretty sure it’s fishing as my details haven’t changed. Can you confirm if I DM you a screenshot? Cheers.

  • sheilavictoriaR Sheila Robson (@sheilavictoriaR) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @O2 Im pleased 😊 scammers are awful!

  • VictoriaMurtha Victoria Murtha (@VictoriaMurtha) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Currently trying to upgrade my phone. No online agents available, if I visit the store will there be someone available to help me?

  • engg_rky Raj (@engg_rky) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    As expected @EE never cares about customer relationship and thus had not replied. @VodafoneUK @O2 if you have better options for me with 500 min India calls per month then please contact me I will port my number

  • nossy1996 Gracie (@nossy1996) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @MyUNiDAYS @O2 I am trying to activate the JBL discount but no money seems to get deducted at checkout... plz help, I’m desperate for a new speaker

  • DarranBlackshaw Darran Blackshaw (@DarranBlackshaw) reported from Seaton Valley, England

    @O2 rang for help and answering machine says ring back in 24hrs and hangs up -really ??

  • SophieBur492 Sophie burlinson (@SophieBur492) reported from Sunderland, England

    For an iPhone 12 Pro meant to be 5G since November I’ve had this phone. Have i got any signs? Absolutely not. It’s now 3G @O2 bad crack.

  • _RebeccaJT Rebecca (@_RebeccaJT) reported from Sunderland, England

    @O2 can someone please give me a response to a query, I have had an automated reply in dm which not helpful in anyway. I have tried my o2 app and it doesn’t help. I have also tried ringing o2 just keep getting cut off.

  • adshill Adam Hill (@adshill) reported from Morpeth, England

    @O2 I’ve just been told that the only way I can use My O2 is to setup a new email account despite My O2 saying it’s the phone number that is the problem. Do I have to have two email accounts just for O2? Seems utterly absurd.

  • Leggler75 Emma (@Leggler75) reported from Gateshead, England

    My husband & I have been with @O2 for 15 years plus. Can’t believe the terrible service after using them & O2 recycle. 10 phone calls later no further forward. Kept phone & no money. Disgusting 😡

  • fredspoon philip (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    Lots of companies doing their bit to help. I got an email from @O2 this morning and how they are helping is allowing people to access the @NHSuk websites without using your data. Whoopy ******* doodle do. I can’t wait it’s like Christmas all over again.

  • RuxanaNargol Ruxana Nargolwala (@RuxanaNargol) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @hellyarrj @O2 Having the same problem. #o2 should deal with this. Totally unacceptable.

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

  • AngieOrrick Angie Orrick (@AngieOrrick) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @O2 you have the worst customer service ever encountered! If I could stop paying you I would! That’s your shop and by telephone

  • doc_drops Santa Drops is coming to Toon 🎅🎅 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    You’re rolling out 5G when Newcastle doesn’t even have basic coverage, I have a 50GB contract with you and barely manage to use 2GB a month due to lack of signal/searching for free Wifi @O2

  • craigblundred Craig Blundred (@craigblundred) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 hi - my wife has been trying to resolve issue with SMS settings - have disappeared yet again. Spent over an hour on live chat but keeps getting passed to different teams then cut off. Has happened before we know what needs to be done but very poor service now.

  • rebeccajadetho1 Rebecca Thorne (@rebeccajadetho1) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @O2 It’s still not working

  • Lornamedia Lorna (@Lornamedia) reported

    @O2 hi. Would you know why WiFi calling on my A50 has just disappeared? I have no signal at my house so it is a real lifeline. Has worked for 2 years but the option seems to have gone after last update.

  • LADY_WANDA_WHY WANDA WHY (@LADY_WANDA_WHY) reported

    How is it we can land a man on the moon, make life saving treatment but can I hell get a internet signal whilst on a train with @O2 Chester- Birmingham NAH Chester-Shrewsbury NAH Chester-North Wales DON'T BE SILLY not even around most parts of Chester these days(usin WiFi 2 post)

  • Jackcorky Jackcorky (@Jackcorky) reported

    @O2 Yes I have seen this and O2 states roaming fees are £3.50 per gb over 25gb. I used 30gb in august and 22gb in September. But was charged an extra £60 and £40? I have O2 travel. But I have still not been able to get through to support on the phone.

  • babymable Jen (@babymable) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 No broadband, no TV and no phone line. I work from home so this is unacceptable especially for the price we pay. When will service be back in the BT16 area.

  • Lornamedia Lorna (@Lornamedia) reported

    @Ceri_Roberts @O2 It's a nightmare as I have no phone signal at home which is really unsafe. Any ideas @O2

  • alyshiawalker7 ɹǝʞlɐʍ ɐᴉɥsʎl∀ (@alyshiawalker7) reported from Blackburn, Scotland

    Without a service on my phone since Friday and @O2 don’t even know how to fix their own issue 😴

  • Lornamedia Lorna (@Lornamedia) reported

    Does anyone on @O2 know why Wifi calling would suddenly disappear? I live in a signal vortex and it doesn't seem to be on the phone anymore....

  • davieska95 Katie Davies (@davieska95) reported

    Hi @O2 I purchased a new contract phone on Saturday and within an hour I received an email to say the product was out of stock. The website is still showing in stock. Can you give me an idea as to when I should be expecting delivery of the phone and whether I need to cancel?

  • tigafan01 Rachael Cowley (@tigafan01) reported

    @O2 your customer service is awful! 5 days chasing an order which you can’t do… until you get your order arghhhhhhh

  • panoramerdj panoramer (@panoramerdj) reported

    @DJPAULETTE @O2 Customer service of some very well known companies is shocking atm. Of course they have the Covid get out clause
