  • paulberry2303 Paul Berry (@paulberry2303) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @O2 I have today received another letter telling me the phone is blocked. I don’t have an O2 phone. I have never had an O2 phone. I don’t owe any money. I know you are looking at it but surely you can put a block on correspondence while you do?

  • EvanD 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

  • 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 !

  • adam0604 Adam Waterhouse (@adam0604) reported from Halesowen, England

    Yo 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!

  • hijabiexplorer Mimii Hatun |Y| aka Ms Begum (@hijabiexplorer) reported from Birmingham, England

    Typical of @o2 for not cancelling my line when I a called in during the cooling off period to cancel the contract. #Thieves

  • mparkerjones 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

  • IyaazMatadar Iyaaz Matadar (@IyaazMatadar) reported from Redditch, England

    Anyone on @O2 having problems sending @WhatsApp messages?

  • amanmarway batgirl (@amanmarway) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 have still not processed a refund from March/April (despite being promised at the time I wouldn’t even be overcharged and my account had already been credited) Two weeks ago I was told payment would be with me in 5 days but I’m chasing ONCE AGAIN Atrocious customer service

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

    I’ve just been in to the @O2 store to get a new sim, fantastic service in store, however, I was shocked to find my contract has gone up £6 since October? How does that work??

  • Tracey_Devina Tracey_Devina (@Tracey_Devina) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 I’m at home for the next 5+ days with covid, my data’s gone, I followed up a text I received to say up my data… it starts on Friday - what’s the actual point. Can you help now, when it matters?!

  • berniebaps101 ҍҽɾղíҽҍɑԹՏ ♏ (@berniebaps101) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I have £45 left to pay on my device, if I pay that can I then cancel the contract as I don't use the sim?

  • Hannahbreenx han (@Hannahbreenx) reported from Bromsgrove, England

    @O2 I haven’t had any signal in my own home for 2 weeks and when I check online it says there won’t be an update until the 10th of June. How is that acceptable for a paying customer? I’ve missed an extremely important medical call back because they can’t get through to me

  • _Rachele_ Rachele (@_Rachele_) reported from Birmingham, England

    Help @O2 - I want to upgrade to the Huawei P30 Pro but it says it's not in stock. Will it ever be or can we not get Huawei anymore?

  • c_booth1990 Chris Booth (@c_booth1990) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @O2 please can you get the signal sorted in The Walsall area West Midlands the signal is horrendous keeps dropping out! Thanks

  • matthew_74 Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 Hi, I completely appreciate the guidance there but, no, it doesn't. When I got through three weeks ago, your colleague was going to escalate my query. I never got the promised call back, hence me trying more recently.

  • matthew_74 Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Hi @O2 I've tried to call about a technical problem (more a frustration) regarding voicemail. Called a couple of times last week, where messages advises you were busy. Now the message says, 'Use the website' and then hangs up. Any suggestions?

  • Crystalcraftand Crystalcraft Andy (@Crystalcraftand) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 so Im looking to upgrade my phone. Problem is, the elements of my pay monthly plan are now split and out of sync. Virgin Handset is now mine but 20 months left on O2 airtime plan.  I cant cancel my O2 plan in order to start again (it wont let me change tariffs for 20 months)

  • GoGishiGoGo Gish Abeyratne (@GoGishiGoGo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 customer service nailing it once again! Information on the website is about as useful as having a third armpit, and then you call and the automated system cuts you off. Bravo you feckless morons 👏 🙄

  • GoGishiGoGo Gish Abeyratne (@GoGishiGoGo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Device is damaged. Your website and app are as clear as mud about repairs and replacements. I'm on hold waiting for an advisor to be available (20 minutes elapsed). Can you help me out?

  • StevoJones1984 Steve Jones (@StevoJones1984) reported from West Bromwich, England

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

  • RobinMoseley2 Robin Moseley (@RobinMoseley2) reported

    @O2 As soon as you knew there was a problem with the site you should have suspended sales until it was fixed. Shambolic

  • Mikey_Gales Mike Gales (@Mikey_Gales) reported

    @O2 Absolute Joke. Are you going to cancel all the tickets people have bought to sell on @viagogo then ?

  • Gemlb1983 Gemma Burns (@Gemlb1983) reported

    @O2 What a load of crap!!! Haven’t been able to access anything all day I don’t see one person on here that has and now they are being sold for hundreds if not thousands of pounds. You haven’t responded to anyone’s messages all day and then post this!!! 🤬

  • chelseaalouise5 chelsea holland (@chelseaalouise5) reported

    Shocking service from @O2 what’s the point in priority when you give out the url for none customers to use also. Joke! Refreshed the app and website since 9 this morning and it still doesn’t work! Shite

  • katie_louise_b Katie Louise Barlow (@katie_louise_b) reported

    @O2 Been thinking of leaving O2 for a while after 21 years of being a loyal customer… 4G is awful, calls constantly fail, mast always down in area. So not even getting a single chance of Peter Kay tickets, after 8 hours of constant refreshing, has confirmed… i’m changing provider!!

  • wardinouk1 ᴍᴀʀᴛɪɴ ᴡᴀʀᴅ (@wardinouk1) reported

    @O2 You cant sell out when ya website is a pile of ****....how difficult was it to set up a queue system like three mobile/ticketmaster had going on? Fairly simple process in the grand scheme of things

  • theatrelover214 Claire Blackburn (@theatrelover214) reported

    @O2 Care to explain how this is possible when your app has been down all day and so has your website? 😡 It’s a joke.

  • dsparks83 Dave Sparks (@dsparks83) reported

    The downtime is almost forgivable but a company the size of @o2 should have sorted it out much quicker - #o2priority still not working correctly. All in all a lot of a farce

  • sx_saj SxSaj (@sx_saj) reported

    @O2 absolute disgrace! And if your constant **** signal wasnt already a reason to leave then todays #peterkay 'priority' access carry on really did put the final nail in the coffin. #o2priorityshambles #peterkaytickets

  • jodiean05961920 jodie andrews (@jodiean05961920) reported

    @O2 It would have helped if your app had not gone down at 10am! So unfair to loyal o2 customers!
