    @virginmedia @O2 your volt supercharge is a con! Why has my virgin media bill doubled and I’m being charged for making changes to my bill, none of this was mentioned to me this is a breach of contract im not paying almost £100 just cancel my package if that’s the case

  • MattKeena

    @O2 are you going to reduce my bill, because the signal I’m receiving for £78 a month is shocking! Not happy

  • 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.

  • NTF_Ian

    Hey @O2 have been waiting almost two hours now to collect my new phone from your metrocentre store. This is not ideal customer service.

    @ODEONCinemas hello, I have a voucher code from @O2 priority for a free cinema ticket on 9th May but it’s keep saying “there was a problem adding the voucher” when I put it into the odeon app

    @O2 spent an hour to try and sort out and cancel an account and have been cut off 6 times now #not happy

  • ilovefluffy
    🎃👻💀🙀🧟‍♂️ #booToYou (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    So to be straight: because @O2 have been terrible for over a year, I can’t refresh my phone until after I get back from my Christmas trip! You’re very VERY quickly losing a customer here and I’ve been with o2 for nearly 15 years.

    I am hoping that @O2 sort out their barring problem as I am not used to sending passive aggressive tweets @o2

    Lucky Tony (@LuckyTony72) reported from Hebburn, England

    @O2 Got a call bar today. Absolutely shoddy customer service. Also I've waited a minimum of 20 minutes to speak to your alleged customer service agents who appear to be utterly inept to make a simple change.

    @O2 Hi. I’ve left O2 in September when my contract expired and switched to another provider. I was billed in September in error and I spoke to someone who refunded the difference from when my contract expired. I have today received a debt recovery letter???? Can someone help!

    @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.

  • ScottSChristie
    Scott Christie (@ScottSChristie) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Is there an issue with signal in NE29 just now? Mine has been pretty bad for a couple of weeks now. Many Thanks.

  • JonnaAnderson
    Jonathan Anderson (@JonnaAnderson) reported from Beamish, England

    @O2 I’m having issues with my calls connecting at the moment - every time someone is calling me when I’m answering the call is failing. I’m having to use WhatsApp to make and receive calls! Any idea how I can fix it?

  • Donna_xx
    Donna_xx (@Donna_xx) reported from Sunderland, England

    @O2 why is the priority app down? Not good when you have priority tickets on sale at 10am !!!

    Samantha♥️ (@XxSammie_89xX) reported

    @O2 No service what so ever, WiFi at home sadly that's useless when your child's school can't even phone you! No 4g...no one can call, you need to reimburse your customers for 10 days when they are paying for a service they arent even receiving

  • Happyengland79
    Shana Hendry (@Happyengland79) reported

    Where's my refund @O2? Absolutely disgusting that you tell me I'm getting a refund and 14days later I still don't have it. Also you are going to owe me for this month too as you still haven't replaced the mast so it still doesn't work most of the time! #evidenceforombudsman

  • GraemeNason
    Graeme Nason (@GraemeNason) reported

    @O2 please can you DM me or explain why I’ve been waiting 3 weeks for my online account to be unlocked ? I’ve only called 3 times to fix and each time promised it’ll be fixed within a couple of days

  • coomerdarren
    Darren Coomer (@coomerdarren) reported

    @O2 Since virgin media came along ive been unable to use the O2 app to look at my account after a few phone calls to raise this issue & told the issue will resolved yet nothing also i don't have virgin media please can you get on with resolving this issue ?

  • xlilyyrobinson
    L🍒 (@xlilyyrobinson) reported

    Disappointed with @O2. I’ve spent 4hrs on calls this week trying to resolve an issue. I’ve had contradictory information, multiple transfers & promised callbacks that never happened. Due to the repeated failures, the only reasonable option now is to allow me to leave penalty-free

    @kbushnell1975 @O2 They never call back

  • 1ts_r0ry
    M☆lls🎀 (@1ts_r0ry) reported

    I genuinely hate the O2 app so much wdym I paid my phone bills on the 15th and it takes the money (THAT I DON’T HAVE) out again TODAY. I ain’t paying for 2 phone twice 🫩 need to wait till 8AM to call them and sort this **** out. @O2

  • essceeeff
    Ess Cee Eff ™ (@essceeeff) reported

    @O2 any chance someone can assist in activating my free extra that was dangled as a carrot to sign a new deal but your app, website, vip support cannot help? Phenomenally bad customer experience

  • cryptoesim
    CryptoeSIM.io (@cryptoesim) reported

    @ungodlywheesa @O2 That's a bummer! What phone are you using? Most phones from 2020+ support eSIMs. If yours doesn't, it might be time for an upgrade — your future traveling self will thank you.

  • SophiePrestonHa
    Cllr Sophie Preston-Hall ECC Rochford North (@SophiePrestonHa) reported

    Is anyone else getting absolutely inundated with calls from an @O2 call centre lately? I’m getting 5–10 calls a week at this point and it’s beyond frustrating. I’ve politely asked to be removed from their list around 9 or 10 times now and today, when I pointed out that I’ve repeatedly asked them to stop calling me, they simply slammed the phone down on me. How on earth do you actually get yourself removed from whatever ridiculous list these companies seem to have you on? Surely I can’t be the only one dealing with this nonsense?
