  • ReissOmari Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 B11HQ B4 B42 B44 They are my main postcodes, they used to be fantastic, for about 3 months now signal has drilled into the ground.

  • Ieeshhhk ieesh (@Ieeshhhk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 what’s with the dodgey service today 🙄

  • PhilTonks2 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.

  • Bigglesdaf Andrew (@Bigglesdaf) reported from Wombourne, England

    @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @O2 Try it they seem to be willing to cancel for those who escalate to the ombudsman service

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    I can’t call you because @ThreeUKSupport are providing a crap service and have been for 3 weeks because of a bit of rain! Time to have a chat with @virginmedia @O2 @VodafoneUK I think, neither #Sky not #Three value customers. @Three_Is_Broken

  • MrRichAnderson Richard Anderson (@MrRichAnderson) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @O2 Terrible customer service, AGAIN. Promised a call on Monday morning. Came whilst I was out of reception (No surprise there!) Voicemail left saying you would try again. Nothing all week. Another reason not to actually upgrade and to leave O2.

  • JakeBox7 Jake Box (@JakeBox7) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Swear no matter what town/city I go I get no ******* signal on 02 @O2

  • ppmbecky ✨Becky Higgins✨ (@ppmbecky) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @O2 great service from Sarah and Matt in the Walsall store this morning..... #customerservice #asset toteam #safariissuesorted #qustodiotheproblem

  • BorisJWorrall Boris Worrall (@BorisJWorrall) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Great customer service @O2 sorting refund on defunct mobile contract, quick, friendly and no hassle 👍✅

  • Paul1366 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.

  • Georgekafetzis George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 your customer service has gone extremely S**T

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    Remember when @three public shamed @o2 for being down. Pot Kettle..

  • ReissOmari Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @o2 signal in birmingham, on 4g but nothing working, been like this was at least a week now, struggling to see why im playing £60 a month to use wi-fi only.

  • Wolvostu Stu Parry (@Wolvostu) reported from Dudley, England

    Is 02 down in the DY6 area @O2

  • TeeKhan84 Tariq Khan (@TeeKhan84) reported from Birmingham, England

    Absolutely awful customer service from Awais at @O2 call centre. Takes 5 days to get an unlock code so that I can use my phone on another network and my o2 line finishes tomorrow! @Ofcom @WhichUK manager was in a 'meeting' and will get back to me by 9pm tonight. #stayawayfromo2

  • gav_wallace1 Gavin Wallace (@gav_wallace1) reported from Wednesfield, England

    2/2 @O2 I’m currently sat at Wolverhampton station and I have 1 bar or 4G in what is a major UK city. Absolutely nonsense that these problems continue to happen. I thought it was bad enough not getting full 4G in my house in Kilmarnock but this is just amateur hour at its finiest

  • msetchell Matt (@msetchell) reported from Redditch, England

    Thanks to Paul @SkyUK who responded to my tweet, replied and then called me, I’ve just got 2 x 10GB sim only deals for a total of £26pm - saving me £15pm verses @o2 and giving James 10x data. And we can roll it over. @o2 just replied saying they couldn’t help!

  • _Rachele_ Rachele 🍷 (@_Rachele_) reported from Redditch, England

    @O2 It was bad all morning in Birmingham. Currently at home in Redditch and it's better but a tad slow. It's the 4G 👍

  • iamRicardoW RICARDO WILLIAMS (@iamRicardoW) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BigJMusic @O2 @ThreeUK Did that... never looked back! Do it

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

  • Tgslim Tony Green (@Tgslim) reported

    @O2 Please o2 your excuses with updating to 5g for 12 months now in Chorley is getting old . No data and poor signal in the Center of Chorley but Vodafone fantastic .

  • 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.

  • AnnaAtTheAmbler AnnaWilliams /TheAmbler 💙 (@AnnaAtTheAmbler) reported

    @MarkMowbrayNE @vodafone @O2 I think you’d be lucky to find any provider who covers Northumberland successfully. Rothbury area for example has terrible coverage. Vodafone hasn’t upgraded their coverage there in over a decade, my mother still has to stand on her driveway to get a signal.

  • crammybear Adam Burbridge #FBPE (@crammybear) reported

    @georgeblfc @EnglandRugby @O2 No chance. Been terrible in white

  • crofterbecca Rebecca Hutton (@crofterbecca) reported

    Hey @O2, your mast at HS3 3JA has been down for weeks now. Any chance somebody could come and fix it? Cheers.

  • _HopeFitzgerald Hope Fitzgerald (@_HopeFitzgerald) reported

    @O2 hi, need to cancel an account. Your phone service is shocking. Help

  • crammybear Adam Burbridge #FBPE (@crammybear) reported

    @EnglandRugby @O2 For **** sake why daly? And ewers too?

  • AshHussain_UK Ash Hussain (@AshHussain_UK) reported

    @FailedYentl @O2 O2 are bloody awful!

  • IanSherwin9 @ (@IanSherwin9) reported

    @O2 I even went to the shop they had to phone the help line they said after this months payment I would be able to log on to the app . This has not been possible. Please activate my account as you have had £75 of my money for something I can not use

  • Auzzie25 Austin (@Auzzie25) reported

    @JadeChanel94 @MATTHEWDREUITT @O2 Seems like there is quite a few of us in the same position. Let down by o2 and not a chance of a proper answer instead of vague "check your email" messages
