    @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!

    @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.

    @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.

    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.

    @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.

    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.

    Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I’m in Newcastle for the weekend and could hardly get a service, keeping jumping from 1 bar on 5G onto 3G, couldn’t get into social media or online due to it buffering. What a waste of time moving to you from EE

    @matthewpearce12 @O2 @O2 fail to realise how many people will walk away and never return. It might take a few years but I bet they'll lose a lot of customers.

    @O2 @Aumz So we never get the benefit of a negative RPI, all take and no give isn’t it?

  • Vanessabooty1
    Vanessa Booty (@Vanessabooty1) reported

    @jodielouiseart @O2 This? I told them my data was unusable in places it was normally absolutely fine, and they said ‘connect to wifi’? I was like ‘how about give me the service I pay for’! Now I have to pay more for a service that has done nothing but get worse! Um no!

  • Otapanakara
    Dani Kaja (@Otapanakara) reported

    Hello @O2, I sent the request to migrate to you and attached the PAC code at the same time I registered, but I received my SIM and it is not my old mobile number. How can I now get my old mobile number with your SIM/Network? I already started a DM to see how can we progress
