    @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?

    @o2. Like clockwork every week O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Sorry, a phone mast close to you isn't working as well as we would expect Our engineers are carrying out some checks to investigate issues in this area...

  • RefinedSavage
    Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England

    Seems 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.

    That, @O2 had better coverage now I'm left with all this extra stress when I'm out because my mobile doesn't work when using @O2 network.... Its not my mobile either. I have a Samsung s20.....

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

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

    @O2 After spending 6 hours trying to get hold of customer services, I ended up driving (and paying for parking) to go to one of your shops to get a sim swap. This apparently the only to get service working. Not the best of starts.

    Why has #o2 gone crap since they merged with #Virgin time to move @o2

  • 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)

  • 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.

    @kokeshimum @O2 Just spent 10 days in Cyprus. Perfect 5g the whole time. At home I struggle to get a 5G signal and 4G now useless

  • PUNKSQUADcom
    PUNK SQUAD (@PUNKSQUADcom) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Left them for Smarty earlier in year. Bill went from £24 and shite service to £8 20 Years A Customer and nothing from them.

  • Watch_n_Wait
    Martin Lee (@Watch_n_Wait) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Listen to any talk radio show and the regularity with which they "lose" guests and callers is embarrassing, and nearly all down to dodgy mobile connections. Sadly Brits gave up a really decent landline system for the "convenience" of mobile without thinking about quality.

  • Onlywayisyork
    Loving York (@Onlywayisyork) reported

    @O2 possibly the worse company ever, ordered tablet, paid upfront cost, passed credit check yet try to checkout and get whoops! Contact @o2 support and their solution is to place a new further despite paying with a new credit check! #poorcustomerservice #avoido2 #o2

  • CliffNixon
    Cliff 🧩🇬🇧 (@CliffNixon) reported

    I'm on @O2 When I leave the house I expect zero signal until I next get to Wifi. They appear to have given up maintaining their cell infrastructure.
