    @O2 asked for a SIMPLE change to be made in August and 5 phonecalls later you still can't get it right! Customer service is a joke!!!

  • LuckyTony72
    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.

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

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

    @2bard @intueldonsquare @northumbriapol You're right in normal circumstances, however my phone signal keeps cutting out while @O2 are upgrading to 5G, last week a man had a seizure in front of me and I was getting repeatedly disconnected from the emergency services while trying to get an ambulance.

  • Donna_xx

    @O2 is it the normal that I STILL can’t get onto my priority app after it being down for maintenance??

  • Slesss_
    JoshSlesser (@Slesss_) reported from South Shields, England

    @O2 I can’t login into my o2 app, it says I might be a bee customer and to wait 48 hours but I’ve been a member for years 🤔 it’s just randomly started doing this

  • 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!

  • stobbsmeister
    Paddy (@stobbsmeister) reported from Seaham, England

    @ThreeUK counting down the days until I'm able to leave. I've overlooked the poor CS and data dead spots however the reintroduction of roaming charges (after banging the go roam drum for years) is the final straw. I'm sure I won't be the first or the last to jump to @O2

  • SgawShaw
    Muriel Sgaw (@SgawShaw) reported from Seaham, England

    @O2 @EleanorRylance And sack the poor employee?

  • chellehewison
    Michelle Hewison (@chellehewison) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Any issues in the Whitley Bay (NE26) area with mobile signal this weekend? I’ve barely been able to get 3G at times let alone anything else!

  • doc_drops

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

  • 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?

  • luketerenceb
    Luke Terence Batten (@luketerenceb) reported from Washington, England

    @O2 I’m really not happy with my phone contract it’s far to expensive would like to cancel free of charge !!!!! Fed up of this bad customer service

    @O2 hello. Do you have a link for the “keep my number” form. Website isn’t helping and store said they couldn’t help as already had the SIM card

    @O2 Hi! Just wondering I have damage insurance on my phone and I’m aware it covers accessories aswell, can you claim for accessories by its self or does it have to be as part of a phone claim too?

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE I’m in Dulwich too. Wasn’t it Boris and his cycling Czar who gave us cycle lanes and closed roads? What did your party do in government to improve mobile service?

  • silestanix
    Mr H (@silestanix) reported

    @O2 I've got a formal complaint pending at the moment so I doubt online team could push it any further but appreciate you guys wanting to look into this, will DM you the complaint reference number. And yes, PAC code would be good too, will send my number in that same dm.

    @Chriswa19691781 @O2 That’s not the only thing that can’t be done with O2 at the moment! Are you able to pay your bills on the app or website? I’m not and quite a few others aren’t either. There is something broken on their end and no one is looking into it

  • Lord_Viridis
    Viridis (@Lord_Viridis) reported

    @O2 @rraanes Youve been looking at it for over 6 months now so I doubt you're actually going to fix it. @ofcom need to look into the shoddy security on o2s site that causes customers to not be able to access accounts

  • Jaxstad
    ᗪᗩᐯE (@Jaxstad) reported

    @O2 Why have an automated service that doesn't work?! Puts customers right off

  • leeroyruddell
    leeruddell (@leeroyruddell) reported

    @O2 Done. I look forward to your response about no issues in the area and to turn my phone on and off again 👍🏻

    Appalling service from @O2 - on phone for nearly an hour only to be cut off and not called back

  • MaryxSSS
    Mary ✌🏿🇺🇬 (@MaryxSSS) reported

    @O2 just some feedback - your blue Monday offering is terrible not a fan of spin the wheel. Can you change back the offering or ask your partnerships team to find better quality partnerships?
