  • matthew_74 Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Hi @O2 I've tried to call about a technical problem (more a frustration) regarding voicemail. Called a couple of times last week, where messages advises you were busy. Now the message says, 'Use the website' and then hangs up. Any suggestions?

  • goingabitgrey John McKeon (@goingabitgrey) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Very poor, new link provided by @DriiftLive doesn’t support casting to another device there is no excuse for this awful provision.

  • matthew_74 Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 Hi, I completely appreciate the guidance there but, no, it doesn't. When I got through three weeks ago, your colleague was going to escalate my query. I never got the promised call back, hence me trying more recently.

  • DirtySurti Ketan Surti (@DirtySurti) reported from Dickens Heath, England

    @O2 your service is terrible and I haven't even fully moved over from my current provider. Managed to move 2 sims across but struggling with two more. Keep getting a declined, then your customer service team call saying can see incomplete order but then cut me off !

  • _Rachele_ Rachele (@_Rachele_) reported from Birmingham, England

    Help @O2 - I want to upgrade to the Huawei P30 Pro but it says it's not in stock. Will it ever be or can we not get Huawei anymore?

  • GoGishiGoGo Gish Abeyratne (@GoGishiGoGo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 customer service nailing it once again! Information on the website is about as useful as having a third armpit, and then you call and the automated system cuts you off. Bravo you feckless morons 👏 🙄

  • adam0604 Adam Waterhouse (@adam0604) reported from Halesowen, England

    Yo why is @O2 4G network coverage so garbish lately? Sort your **** out man, I don't pay for a 1 bar signal wherever I go!

  • Martbushii Mart🌲🌻🦊🐞🎵😁 🇪🇺♂️🏳️‍🌈🌹🌊 (@Martbushii) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 @ThreeUK What on earth is happening in Dudley West midlands. Mine and my friends mobile phones have had no service. Is there something wrong?. I am doing this on his Post Office home internet

  • Lysander_16 Lysander 🦆 (@Lysander_16) reported from Wednesfield, England

    Hey @O2 is there a actually a mast issue in Wolverhampton? As I've been receiving little to no Internet while I'm at work (WV10) It's been about 2 weeks. I'm not the only one either. Checked your service status and says there's a mast issue but it hasn't been fixed. Any ideas?

  • MrTegSingh Teg Singh (@MrTegSingh) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @O2 customer services shocking after spending nearly 3 hours on the phone to them I had to go to the wolves store and sort it out myself. Massive thank you too Jeeves who works at o2 wolves for finding me a phone reserving it at merry hill I know have my new phone

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 @virginmedia Further to this, he has now told me that as I get a £15/month discount for my 1st 6 months with O2, I need to cancel that and pay full price in order to get the extra #Volt speed boost with VM

  • berniebaps101 ҍҽɾղíҽҍɑԹՏ ♏ (@berniebaps101) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I have £45 left to pay on my device, if I pay that can I then cancel the contract as I don't use the sim?

  • M5Mahmud Nas Mahmud (@M5Mahmud) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I had a issue with my billing and spoke to several of your phone assistants who did not help much at all, kept batting me off to Ariel Direct who also were useless. I finally got through to Tracy who explained the situation in 2 mins and resolved the issue, pls reward her.

  • AndyH_Official Andy Hollinson (@AndyH_Official) reported from Redditch, England

    @O2 hi there, all of our phones have lost signal in B97 Redditch. Is there a problem please?

  • AnneBaines1 Anne Baines 💙💙💙💙💙💙 (@AnneBaines1) reported from Hagley, England

    @acorbettn @O2 @metpoliceuk How awful. I hope that you are ok. Take care of yourself

  • GoGishiGoGo Gish Abeyratne (@GoGishiGoGo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Device is damaged. Your website and app are as clear as mud about repairs and replacements. I'm on hold waiting for an advisor to be available (20 minutes elapsed). Can you help me out?

  • brightonsnapper eddie mitchell (@brightonsnapper) reported

    @Eb_Merc_Boy69 @O2 Lovely guy on the phone / agreeing an 18% a price rise after 12 days is poor. Just take our money elsewhere #simple

  • JB007700007 its me maybe (@JB007700007) reported

    @365johnsonTmr @EnglandRugby @O2 I don’t dislike Farrell at 10 but he’s got into a habit of kicking in the opposition 22 even with overlaps. As a centre he’s poor. He’s not quick, certainly isn’t a carrier who’ll suck in a defence and make ground to get over the gain line. He doesn’t bring anything in that spot.

  • acereject Paul Anderson 💫🪐 (@acereject) reported

    @Ginger_Tucci @O2 Drives me mental that I have absolutely no signal around Central Station radiating out about three blocks. And signal drops out significantly on the rail route around Uddingston and Bellshill.

  • theblenderhq The Blender's Frozen February :: March(!) 4th (@theblenderhq) reported

    @nomdecuisine @O2 Yeowch! And we thought we'd had a bad day.

  • MC10589343 Matt Claxton (@MC10589343) reported

    @EnglandRugby @O2 Brave move if this translates into the match day 23. Near unanimity about the wisdom of dropping Marcus. Ignores form when so many in the team are struggling to find it, especially given the turgid showings so far. Picking those on the way down is just odd and alienates fans

  • Kelar71 Keef (@Kelar71) reported from Chippenham, England

    45 minute wait to speak to @O2 on phone then cut off. Rubbish service. Sort it out!

  • VickyPaver Vicky 💙🌈 (@VickyPaver) reported

    Wonder why it’s so easy to spend money with @O2 but you need 4 hours and a degree to return an item and change a SIM to pay as you go? Keep getting passed for pillar to post with their messaging service and sit for 25-30 mins on hold on the phone to get nowhere. 😮‍💨😡😤

  • olive_simmo Olive ❤️ (@olive_simmo) reported

    @O2 Nothing is working, my phone shows 3 bars of signal but my texts won’t send and when I try to call it just beeps and cuts out. I can receive incoming calls but data etc isn’t working

  • MarcMoletKing Marc MK (@MarcMoletKing) reported

    @O2 I paid for a SIM card and it won't work. Your support team is away for the night. This makes me want to never use your service again.

  • ultimatedoris Linda Burge (@ultimatedoris) reported

    @O2 is there a reason your 3 main masts in Bath do not work as they should? I am unable to get any decent internet signal, I have tried EVERY problem solving tactic you have given me, but it still doesn’t work - what are you going to do to stop me going to another provider?
