    @whatphilsaid @O2 It’s horrendous. Who would have thought the network could actually get worse as technology improves

    @O2 really disappointed with the service I’m getting from O2. Poor coverage, dropped calls, slow texts, no internet, been like this for 5 months, No sign of a fix, difficult call centre staff hide behind “policy” to avoid being helpful. If you need a new provider - Avoid O2

  • SophieMDrake
    Sophie Drake (@SophieMDrake) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 It’s having to be escalated due to a back office technical fault, issue on My O2 and the account behind the scenes, so I’m without data when out of the house for up to 10 days. Not ideal really!

    @CPWTweets @O2 Why is it so hard to unlock an old CPW android phone, purchased through CPW but was on o2 sim/network. O2 say its CPW that need to unlock it, CPW say its O2, back n forth for 3 hours on live chat. Can one of you just get me a SIM network unlock PIN!! FFS!!

  • 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 !

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 can you stop advising people to "reset network settings" when your network has problems. This didn't fix the problem with your network and unfortunately wipes out all WiFi and Bluetooth settings, which then need manually setting up again. Not good advice at all.

    @O2 working like clockwork? It goes faulty every week. "O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

  • StevoJones1984

    I seriously can't wait to get off @O2. Their customer service has been top notch, but the signal is beyond a joke.

    @danboq @VodafoneUK @O2 have an annual rise in April too, when I have signal, the conversation will be interesting 😂

  • 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.

  • gracielou_xx
    Gracie xo (@gracielou_xx) reported from Swindon, England

    I can’t believe I was on the phone to @O2 for a good hour and all senior members of staff refusing to come to the phone to answer queries about random, large charges on my bill. Instead leaving a less qualified member to try and help with absolutely no support or assistance 🤢

  • ChrisJSharratt_
    ChrisJSharratt_ (@ChrisJSharratt_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I ordered a phone on the train today and only found out you need ID after. I have a copy on my phone, you can check with my work and I will be getting rid of this phone in an hour!!!!!! What ******** am I meant to do?!!!!!

  • PeteVillan1981
    Carpy Villan™️ (@PeteVillan1981) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    How poor is the coverage from @virgin mobile? Since the merger with @O2 the mobile coverage is appalling. Massive price increase on all plans/ packages yet the network service is worse than ever

  • MikeKlymko
    Mike Klymko (@MikeKlymko) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 Called to complain about poor network coverage where I live and work. Battery died whilst waiting on hold forever.

  • 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

    Thanks @o2 @my_prsnt for my o2 blue monday treat #bluemondays #priority

  • 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.

    Hey @O2 could you make a SIM only deal that could be bundled onto my contract for my elderly parent? They never make calls unless it's an emergency but I always call them. A bundle on SIM for a token cost would be piece of mind and so helpful.

  • Paulc2nd
    Paul Curry (@Paulc2nd) reported

    @BillCockaCha @O2 I am having issues with it as well. They ask the same dumb questions when it's a problem with the app.

  • CharlieIDIC
    IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported

    @O2 are the worst left us with no working phones because their eSIM activation isn’t working and they said click here then logged off for the night

  • Andrewislington
    Andrew (the *****) (@Andrewislington) reported

    @JohnTillUK @O2 I’M HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE I literally do not have the time to pick up the phone every time

  • lmclells90
    Lauren McLellan (@lmclells90) reported

    @O2 I need to make a formal complaint over appalling customer service over fraudulent activity on my account. I've tried endlessly to resolve this since it first came to light to no avail. O2 confirmed they would stop my direct debit to avoid the £286 bill leaving my account

  • wise151721
    wise151721 (@wise151721) reported

    @O2 the worst service & customer service I have been receiving for the last few months - just being fobbed off - not getting a service that I’m expected to pay for NO ANSWERS!!!!!

  • craigo171981
    Craigo (@craigo171981) reported

    @O2 @friesneverdies If this is case o2 .. why is an employee of yours calling me.. then hanging up? Literally just now.. back to the drawing board with your customer service team!!

  • Paulc2nd
    Paul Curry (@Paulc2nd) reported

    @BillCockaCha @O2 I am experiencing the same issues. I don't know why @O2 have to constantly ask separate individuals what they are experiencing when multiple people are experiencing the same problem !

  • Kelbells_18

    Hi im desperately trying to get in touch with Joss/Josh in your customer service team. Its regarding the very random order relating to the Boots order lady! @O2
