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.

Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England@O2 That looks like an Apple device. #Alexa won’t help you there. #Siri might.
-
Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, EnglandSeems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

-
Ellie Winters (@N104AP) reported@Marooned_Sailor @O2 @Ofcom the issue with mmwave is whilst the bands were recently auctioned, theres another thing stopping the mmwave rollout which doesnt even have anything to do with the carriers, device manufacturers keep making it US exclusive, with international models not having it, so then the carriers dont build the infrastructure, so then the companies dont ship mmwave hardware, and it just goes in circles i dont think we'll ever have mmwave in this country at this rate
-
blueowl9 (@blueowl9) reported@O2 any idea how Im expected to sign into my O2 account when strangely I cant scan the QR code on the phone Im trying to sign in with, nothing like making it easy to access your own account
-
Petr N (@nemgp) reported@O2 roaming data still doesn't work after porting to O2. Countless call to O2 didn't help.
-
Paz DLXV (@paz565) reported@O2 The whole 'customer service' provided by O2 in relation to this matter has been nothing short of appalling. As O2 is now associated with Virgin Media, I will be taking the earliest opportunity available to switch the services I have with them too.
-
𝙀𝙢𝙢𝙖𝘾𝙝𝙡𝙤𝙚𝙚 (@emmachloee) reportedImagine living in 2026 and never having any 5G signal with @O2
-
Tim (@UpperBullen) reported@O2 trying to purchase in your sales. Clearly your systems have problems.
-
itsjustme (@LouiseDarbyshir) reported@O2 ya ****!!! Just saying
-
Mitul Chauhan (@themoogler) reported@O2 Thank you for getting back to me. After nearly a week of trying (and failing) to get anywhere she eventually managed to buy a new phone in an O2 store and have her cards unblocked. All very stressful and unnecessary so she will make an official complaint when she has time!
-
Jon Thompson (@JohnnyFocal) reportedQuestion for @O2 : how can I be on your Ultimate package in central London and still have literally no usable data? The phone shows signal, but data traffic is effectively zero. I’ve tested the other three UK networks in the same locations and they all work perfectly. What exactly is wrong with your service? As you can see it connected to you do no data traffic? Why?
-
SolovAeh (@Aehnen_) reportedHonestly, @O2 continue to prove to me that they are worst company. They sent me an email to say they tried to contact me to discuss my complaint. My phone never rang but my iPad received a text saying they were going to call me.
