-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@O2 why does the local B90 4AJ mast go faulty EVERY week. 6 weeks in a row now, we get no service until it is repaired. You need better repair engineers as their repairs do not even last a week!!!
-
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
-
Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England@danboq @VodafoneUK At least @O2 only fob me off once every two weeks 🤪 And they don’t even give a reason, just knock the date back every time 🤣 As long as I have signal in time so I can send my Xmas texts I’ll be a happy chap
-
PongoVilla (@PongoVilla) reported from Birmingham, EnglandWhy has #o2 gone crap since they merged with #Virgin time to move @o2
-
Adam Waterhouse (@adam0604) reported from Halesowen, EnglandYo 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!
-
Amy Bradwell (@amy_bradwell) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 I want to cancel my order with yourselves as the iPhone 12 pros are not included in the open discount.
-
steve beard (@steve8454) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 my son has changed network provider from o2 to ee. Waiting 5 days now for tel no to be transferred. Unable to get thru and no response to messages. Its crucial he has a working phone especially at this time. Shameful customer service.....
-
Tina-Louise Boyce (@LittleMissCosta) reported from Solihull, England@O2 I've just tried this, they've said they've sent me a text with a code but I don't have any service to receive the text. So now I'm stuck..
-
The McFugget (@Paul1366) reported from Tamworth District, England@O2 Any known issues with the phone service in Tamworth and Lichfield. I can barely make phone calls and it shows I have 4g but the Internet is awfully slow.
-
SAB Photography (@sabphotos69) reported from Dudley, England@TheOldDear @O2 @EnglandRugby You’d think it would be easy to provide a service considering they charge me……….. wait for it £67 a month. I get no signal at all most of the time. Yet apparently engineers are working on it.
-
Suki Randhawa (@sukirandhawa4x4) reported from Walsall Wood, England@O2 why is your reception in the #WestMidlands so bad #Willenhall #Walsall showing 4G internet buffering all the time, considering moving on to another network after 20 plus years with you.

Claire B🐈⬛🐈⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, EnglandThat, @O2 had better coverage now I'm left with all this extra stress when I'm out because my mobile doesn't work when using @O2 network.... Its not my mobile either. I have a Samsung s20.....

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.
-
Hooty McOwlface (@Cheadle) reported from Birmingham, England@whatphilsaid @O2 It’s horrendous. Who would have thought the network could actually get worse as technology improves
-
Matthew Parker-Jones Hall (@mparkerjones) reported from Walsall Wood, England@O2 hi we ever getting a fix for postcodes WS14 and WV14 terrible phone signal and data just doesn't connect mentioned in December and according to your app it would be fixed in 2 weeks ?! 4months later still exactly the same
-
Jake Box (@JakeBox7) reported from Walsall Wood, EnglandSwear no matter what town/city I go I get no ******* signal on 02 @O2
-
Phil Tonks (@PhilTonks2) reported from Dudley, England@O2 Just runs very slow, if at all. Advised in the past to change settings in phone to use 3G but it's hardly practical to keep doing this. 4G+ in the City Centre just seems overloaded much of the time. Other half on Vodafone no issues at all. Very frustrating.

Teg Singh (@MrTegSingh) reported from Wolverhampton, England@wolvesclaire @O2 Never been so angry been on the phone since 8.30 cut off 3 times and been transferred to so many different departments. 😡😡😡😡

-
Felix Lowe (@saddleblaze) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 @EE It’s quite a leap to blame your poor phone reception on cyclists, Tom. Be better.
-
Snow&Fairways (@IcyFairways) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 @EE Sane with three. Garbage.
-
Jo Harrington (@1joharrington) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 UK 5G is dreadful. Third-party user testing from Opensignal and Ookla showed that the everyday user experience in the UK is among the worst in the developed world. 40% of the time your phone shows the "5G" icon in the UK, it is actually running on older 4G infrastructure.
-
RichardAngell (@Groundhopperno1) reported@O2 hi O2 can you help me with an issue on my account? 3 lines customer for over 20 years and I’m struggling to get the loyalty discount and also the local 5g mast has been out of action since December and I’ve been paying for an airtime contract that hasn’t given me a service
-
Christopher (NOT Chris) (@puncharama) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 @vodafone Try speaking to the regulator about it then you can really see why uk services are so poor
-
Ben (@Ben91530293) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 Thought it was just me.. Kent is like a black hole when it comes to phone signal.
-
Amelia Eberhardt-Armstrong (@SoSoaksy) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 They are reducing signal strength to save electricity costs. They even boast about how they reduce energy consumption by switching equipment off/running in lower power. Esp in non peak periods such as overnight. Doesn’t seem to be subject to regulatory measures
-
James (@James62876216) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 @EE 14 years in power and it wasn't a problem then?
-
Colwyn00 (@colwyn0077668) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 @EE mobile networks have been **** for ages. we have agents out up and down the uk and difference contracts with different providers and over different handsets have all been garbage.

Kevin Thomas FINSTR 🏴 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 (@kevinxt) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 Hi we had issues with O2 which was our Business Mobile supplier. There are coverage maps available, we checked them and found better coverage with EE. We tried a spare mobile first which was better, then changed to EE. Works well as we have two locations Wales and Southwest.
