    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

    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 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

    @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!

  • 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.

    @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!

  • 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 😡

  • TommyWinter23
    Tommy Winter (@TommyWinter23) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @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

    Nigel Jones (@planetf1) reported

    @ajgbarnes @O2 don’t they have a price-cap anyway (certainly ee and voda do) so you could set that to 0,or low. So at worst would just stop working. You could get an esim to top up if needed. that being said crazy to not have a way of checking

  • Frugal_ways
    Deano... (@Frugal_ways) reported

    @O2 Website crashing - after displaying payment screen - tried on three browsers now. Thought it was the authorisation issue, default email opening a browser that no longer works with website. Changed default browser on email, it worked, but payment confirmation screen crashed.

  • lloydoh17
    LH_88 (@lloydoh17) reported

    @O2 @NotSoP3ng Signal is appalling these days as well.

  • matthewwright17

    Have I accidentally signed up for the 0 internet or signal plan @O2

  • EerikBeeton
    Eerik Beeton, MCIM Cmktr (@EerikBeeton) reported

    Hey @O2, even Pitbull cancelled his concert in Riga last minute due to "technical issues", but somehow your roaming network is putting on an even worse performance. Stuck on 'No Service' in Latvia with a fully paid contract. Can a human DM me to fix this backend glitch?

  • Lewis_1417
    Lewis (@Lewis_1417) reported

    Hey @O2. You have the worst account management system of any phone provider I have ever had the displeasure of using. Why is there no way to change the default payment method. Instead you just send threatening texts saying I’m going to be cut off.

  • Rickyroaster1
    RICKY (@Rickyroaster1) reported

    Today I received a txt stating my rolling plan had been cancelled and I was put on a PAYG tariff.This is so unprofessional, to change a customers plan without basic communication on WHY?if a card expires O2 should tell customer not change tariff, WTF O2 @O2

    @O2 The issue is that when you google the number it’s coming up as legitimate o2 insurance. The thing that made me suspicious was that insurance department wouldn’t call to tell me my sim was getting disconnected as there’s different departments.

  • MyApocalypse_
    Natalie Mc (@MyApocalypse_) reported

    @O2 wtf is going on with the signal recently? Status checker says nothing wrong anywhere, but my 1-2 bars of 4G that is useless say otherwise, sick of paying money to get no signal
