  • 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

  • CraigSi64474606 nufc4life (@CraigSi64474606) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 @O2 fone now completely off and can’t even login to my o2 account online to pay it that way

  • stuarturquhart1 stuart urquhart (@stuarturquhart1) reported from Whickham, England

    @O2 website and app not working 😕

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    Does anyone use @vodafone in the Northumberland area? Is it any good? I'm currently on @O2 but looking to switch networks as O2 are being extremely greedy with large price hikes on their already expensive network.

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

    @O2 could someone help?

  • 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

  • Danford2013 John McCarthy (@Danford2013) reported from Whickham, England

    @O2 I was spammed. Then defrauded. Went to O2 shop and reported issue. Told Fraud Dept would contact within 2 days. Three further calls to O2 (2O2) and one month later still no Fraud contact and no resolution. Today notice to take another payment. @O2 any chance of sorting?

  • gavwells77 gavin wells (@gavwells77) reported from South Shields, England

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

  • smiling_cyclist Dean (@smiling_cyclist) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @segawhore @O2 Took 2 calls, nearly 3 hours and a messed up weekend but I got there in the end although no new phone yet. I can’t believe the service in store and the lies too.

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

  • CBrackenArtist Catherine Bracken (@CBrackenArtist) reported

    @O2 I cannot even call my 02 because of this issue! It's been weeks now and still nothing sorted.

  • TheNeensSpeech Nina Salome✨ (@TheNeensSpeech) reported

    @O2 why have I had no service or 4G all day? Was fine yesterday.

  • dean_marchmont dean marchmont (@dean_marchmont) reported

    @O2 after 15+ years of being one of your customers i have decided to take my custom elsewhere!!! Your decision to merge with Virgin and move your callcentres to whereever they now are has been the worst decision ever made by your business I have never received such awful service!

  • davidng68 David Ng (@davidng68) reported

    @O2 Phoned yesterday and was told to wait 24 hours for the email with invoice to arrive. Still nothing. Can anyone help?

  • neilwallace403 Neilwallace403@gmail.com (@neilwallace403) reported

    @ezzeeegooner @O2 @SkyUK I live in the middle of nowhere and Vodafone Wi-Fi calling is excellent at home. I don’t have too many problems with the signal as a lorry driver I’m all over the country and very rarely suffer signal problems

  • emzlewie Emma Lewington (@emzlewie) reported

    @O2 been a customer for 15 years absolutely appalling customer service today being pushed for pillar to post hung up on 3rimes wrong advice from your agents and taking money I have not authorised you to take. Absolutely ridiculous

  • CBrackenArtist Catherine Bracken (@CBrackenArtist) reported

    @O2 You have got to be kidding? Handy tips? I don't want to be faffing around when I pay enough for my 02! I am still having intermittent network. I want this sorted and some sort of compensation! I missed important doctors calls because of this! Please get back to me. Thank you.

  • Jewel_Crush_Axe EnviroComms Jewel, PhD 👩🏽‍🎓🧪⚗🌍🌎🌏 (@Jewel_Crush_Axe) reported

    @lskains @ThreeUK @O2 They are pretty horrible. I'm changing too

  • tomnixon Tom Nixon (@tomnixon) reported

    @patrickandr @O2 Thanks for the recommendation. Contrast that level of service to @o2 not even bothering to acknowledge this tweet. I’ll check out phonecoop. Which network do they run on?

  • CamillaLatham30 Camilla Sally Louise Latham (@CamillaLatham30) reported

    @O2 as much as love being a customer with #o2 there is a downside especially when you have to phone up to ask to pay off remaining contract. Would be easier especially if you’re disabled like me. And sometimes it’s easier to pay on the app/website. Please take this on board.
