    @O2 I’m unable to remember my security question answer in order to change my password to view my a/c the system won’t accent any answers to other questions & customer care is unobtainable. It’s rubbish & unhelpful. I feel very cross!!!😡

  • areeyoushaw Harris (@areeyoushaw) reported from Dudley, England

    Signals dog **** today lads, lasses, (other) @O2

  • conorcole Conor (@conorcole) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Your call centre operatives are rude & your information is misleading. I’ll be paying this device off then switching my network ✨

  • crazysamsam Samantha Thompson (@crazysamsam) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Your customer service has been awful at this difficult time @O2. We had to call your bereavement department so many times to sort out the bill you said you’d wave, and this has caused us much stress and anxiety. To then contact us again on FATHER’S DAY is extremely cruel.

  • devilwoman1975 Alison Hadley 🛵 (@devilwoman1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @O2 losing signal on walsall area

  • ChrisSammons_ Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @rachaelxspragg @O2 My update was via Email - BECAUSE I HAVEN’T SIGNAL SINCE MARCH 3RD 😂

  • ChrisSammons_ 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

  • cleggy12 Amanda & Julie 🏳️‍🌈 (@cleggy12) reported from Halifax, England

    @o2 FRUSTRATED is not the word!! How hard is it to request a god damn pac number?????? You ordered my daughter a contract the sim@has arrived but we can’t use it because you won’t help to get a pac number

  • AbiWill46100208 Abi Williams (@AbiWill46100208) reported

    @O2 just arrived in france and my mobile data isn’t working despite it being turned on and having 4 bars of service. Why is this? I have just come back from Spain earlier this month and it was working perfectly fine.

  • weefirecracker_ ✨Karen✨ (@weefirecracker_) reported

    @O2 Hi, the 4G coverage in St Andrews KY16 has been terrible recently when there used to be no issues. Can you check why this is? Thanks

  • AgeingLock68 Cris Samways (@AgeingLock68) reported from Yeovilton, England

    Awful @O2 4G coverage in Yeovil town centre. Again. Funnily enough my parents have no issue, in the same supermarket and cafe, at the same time. They are with @tescomobile - who, funnily enough, use the @o2 network as their carrier. 🤔 how come I’m losing out then?

  • devils50 Simon Devlin (@devils50) reported

    Hi @O2 ! Why is you service ******* shite!

  • PatMasterman pat masterman🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@PatMasterman) reported

    @VodafoneUK @O2 on the 29th of July I set in motion a change from Vodaphone to O2 , today after more calls than I can remember I actually have a service. Seriously rubbish service from both companies.

  • AgeingLock68 Cris Samways (@AgeingLock68) reported from Yeovilton, England

    @O2 Not really helpful because, as I said, if there was s general network issue then, surely, as my parent’s provider uses O2 as their network carrier then they should have the same issues as me. No?

  • tayssharpie fearless (@tayssharpie) reported

    @O2 hi my data isn’t working, is the network down?

  • ryan_da_lion ₲₳ⱤɎ (@ryan_da_lion) reported

    @O2 suggestion for improvement. The mobile signal along the rail line between Derby and London st Pancras is dire. Trying to listen to the football on the radio…. No hope 😞 also the mobile signal between Sheerness and sittingbourne (Kent) is just as bad, if not worse

  • bexbalboa Becky Birks (@bexbalboa) reported

    @O2 I’m not an o2 mobile customer and never will be after this, I was purchasing an accessory from your website I will never switch from Vida phone to u now after this awful debacle costing me £49.68
