    @O2 Hello. I have tried to access chat but all agents busy. Since yesterday, I have had no data on my phone. I have tried to turn phone on and off and it is still not working! Can this be looked into, after all O2 are number 1 for loyalty definitely not customer service...🙄

    Trying to cancel a contract with @O2 for a 96 year old totally deaf disabled lady ..... virtually impossible. Took store staff 2 hours !!! (well done them). what a total nightmare and unnecessary worry and expense 😡

  • Futuresailorr_
    Dom (@Futuresailorr_) reported from Winchester, England

    The reasoning @O2 gives that the internet sucks at my home is "the network gets busy sometimes". How tf is that an excuse???

    @O2 why is my signal always so bad at home..I live in a city. Time to change network I think.

    @SarahLudford @O2 Would be good to get a 2G signal in many parts of the country just to be able to make a call and send and receive SMS.

    @O2 @darklilly1604 App used to work. Now you have to validate you login with virgin which I assume many people have done, it work once, then you trying opening it again and you have to go through the validation process all over again. The worst process ever. Ditch the app. At least Priority works

  • DavidPalman
    Detainment Dave (@DavidPalman) reported from Southampton, England

    @O2 @kevp1910 Same nonsense response I'm getting from @easyJet, Kev. On hold for two hours and nobody answering calls. It seems the bigger the company, the worse their customer service is.

  • SimonHeaps4
    Simon Heaps (@SimonHeaps4) reported from Lymington, England

    @O2 Where do I start. I have been having a major , major problem with your customer Service and have a bill of over £2200 outstanding. Basically the bolt on that I bought was not activated !! I have now made many many phone calls to your Customer Service number in South Africa.

  • JimDay22857614
    Jim Day (@JimDay22857614) reported from Sway, England

    @tescomobile & @O2 I understand the weather has been full on this week but I've had no signal since Wednesday. According to the website "...a nearby phone mast isn’t working... engineers are likely to be on the case already..." could you confirm that they are?! Or is it my phone?

  • MatthewCaputo_
    Matthew Caputo (@MatthewCaputo_) reported from Southampton, England

    absolutely SHOCKING service from @O2 during my time working in Southampton. Intermittent calls, terrible 4G.. all for a ‘service’ I’m paying EXTORTIONATE amounts for! I need my phone for work purposes and haven’t been able to use it!.. 😡

  • Tom_NRawlings
    Tom Nichol-Rawlings (@Tom_NRawlings) reported from Locks Heath, England

    Really feeling neglected by @O2. Shame to see their customer service drop to such poor levels - no responses to legitimate questions, no explanations for technical issues - disappointing at best

  • madonadventure
    Euan McGrath (@madonadventure) reported from Locks Heath, England

    @o2 appalling customer service. Trying to help my aged mother at a stressful time and you refused to assist. #poorCustomerservice #nohelp #mobileproviderwhodoesnotcare #nevereverusethem

  • mikecheeseman72
    Mike Cheeseman (@mikecheeseman72) reported from Locks Heath, England

    @O2 admitted mis-selling and then not actioning cancellation to my elderly Mother. Since raising a complaint on multiple occasions, over several weeks, I am yet to receive a response #ripoffBritain

  • Dive_With_Matt
    Matt Holton (@Dive_With_Matt) reported from New Milton, England

    @O2 I’m having an issue paying a phone bill and my phones been cut off ( no service unless using WiFi ) is there a number I can contact to talk to somebody vs talking to an automated machine about it?

  • dreamkatchme
    KatKat (@dreamkatchme) reported from Gosport, England

    @O2 How? The app has literally been down since 8 this morning so how? It was working for me until then and kicked me@out. I’ve been trying to get back in ever since and now the tickets are all over the resale sites at a ridiculous price. Disgraceful.

  • CharlieOake
    Charlotte Oake (@CharlieOake) reported from Fareham, England

    @O2 I have been into my local branch who have looked into this and was told ‘it does seem a bit much... you just need to pay’. Very unhelpful customer service im afraid to say

  • XMoonfall
    🌌Xantha Moonfall🌌 (@XMoonfall) reported from Southampton, England

    @O2 Yes please! I would love to update my Samsung, and I have been an O2 customer for years! Good luck everyone!

  • nikkibrown63
    Nikki Brown (@nikkibrown63) reported from Romsey, England

    @O2 No. Simply couldn’t beat the deal I got with vodaphone and iPhone 11. Shame as I never had a problem with an upgrade before but the upgrade was more expensive than a new contract.

    @O2 Hello, I’m trying to get into my o2 account to find out why my bill has gone up by £3 this month. I just keep getting sent around in circles by trying to verify my account and link it to Virgin media. Can you help please

  • DeeBrow47820756
    Dee Brown (@DeeBrow47820756) reported

    @O2 @AlanRob68902430 The merger combined O2's mobile network with Virgin Media's broadband business to create a major integrated communications provider in the UK." Must be nice to.earn so much from pensioners. £60 a month for a 2 year old phone.

  • regicfc
    Gary (@regicfc) reported

    2026 and i still have to dial the top up number to top up my phone rather than the @O2 application. Since your merger with virgin the application is actually so poor constant log jn via email it doesnt approve ur verification try again it accept but nothing happens on the app.

  • Rocky_Horror17
    Vikki (@Rocky_Horror17) reported

    @O2 Spent over an hour on the phone, can't speak to anyone in the UK. Shocking customer service.

  • mark_royle
    Mark Royle (@mark_royle) reported

    Dear @O2 I have now been without mobile broadband which is my internet connection for over a month now. I have contacted customer service 4 times, each time I have been promised that the problem is fixed #o2 #o2failing #O2nocustomerservice

  • MarcThompson2
    Thompson (@MarcThompson2) reported

    @O2 due to ongoing service issue which has caused great stress I’ve sent an email making a formal complaint and have had no acknowledgement. Who do I contact and why have I been ignored?

  • MikeModelsky
    Michael “Mecha” Modelsky (@MikeModelsky) reported

    Is anyone else on @O2 finding that since the @virginmedia team up the service is horrendous, has taken my partner seven weeks to get their account unlocked, no it’s been unlocked. They can’t pay their bill due to an insecure website issue and too many redirects.

  • Gilly2028
    Richard Giles (@Gilly2028) reported

    @O2 I’ve recently moved from Sky Mobile to O2, I can’t believe O2 actually charge you for sending MMS messages in 2026, 87p a message. Bear in mind Sky piggy back off of O2, I’ve never been charged for MMS.😳 😮 Have I made a big mistake moving to O2?

  • TheElectroFox
    ✞ ⛥ ElectroFox ⛥ ✞ (@TheElectroFox) reported

    @Joff_L @O2 They also see fit to charge existing customers upfront costs when trying to upgrade and dont budge on any of it, forcing you to customise your tariff and making it down to £10 as the lowest amount, which then raises the overall cost and then has you dropping down a tariff later.
