    @O2 9 hours after you reported it fixed (again). O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

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

  • 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.

    Don’t know what I’m paying for as it is can’t name a place I actually get signal, now a massive price increase. Can’t wait to leave @O2

    @O2 what’s with the dodgey service today 🙄

    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?

    Swear no matter what town/city I go I get no ******* signal on 02 @O2

    @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

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

    @o2 signal in birmingham, on 4g but nothing working, been like this was at least a week now, struggling to see why im playing £60 a month to use wi-fi only.

    @O2 That looks like an Apple device. #Alexa won’t help you there. #Siri might.

    hey @O2, I’m trying to enter my IMEI number on the Recycle site to start the process of trade in for my new contract but it’s not accepting it? Pretty sure my iPhone is genuine after all these years haha. Could you help?

  • 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

  • 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?

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

    @O2 why does the local B90 4AJ mast go faulty EVERY week. 6 weeks in a row now, we get no service until it is repaired. You need better repair engineers as their repairs do not even last a week!!!

    Remember when @ThreeUK public shamed @O2 for being down. Pot Kettle..

    @EnglandRugby @SixNationsRugby @O2 Hate seeing Marchant out the 23, feels like he never gets a run of games… but a strong team, and a hell of a bench!

  • 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

  • Georgekafetzis
    George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 your customer service has gone extremely S**T

  • 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)

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

    Kieran (@kierangpim) reported

    @O2 I have been trying for about a fortnight to sort out a new SIM only contract and each time I am met with the attached. I've tried multiple cards, different browsers and I can't do anything. I can't log in and talk through the app as well because I'm not a customer.

  • londonlaraine
    Laraine Kempster (@londonlaraine) reported

    @DavidMacG1972 @O2 @davehpayne They're disgraceful. I am 70 disabled and live alone and I have had no DATA service and can't make calls for 3 days now and their answer? Phone our Support team....

  • Leanne07Leanne
    Leanne (@Leanne07Leanne) reported

    @O2 hello, for 2 weeks now signal and 4g has hardly been working in Southport. My battery is drained within 5 hours because 4g is trying to find the network to connect. This is happening to a few people. Are there any works in progress? Thanks

    @O2 @O2 i already sent formal complaints by email to the access team and the arena, over a week ago, and they never replied.

    🎗️Turnbull and Proud 🍉💚🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@Dgooch66) reported

    Not only does @O2 advertise items falsely, when. You complain they don't even have the decency to have a person deal with the complaint, how far this company has fallen in standards is unreal!

  • jmcconville710

    @O2 morning , need help with an invoice/bill I have received which is strange as I’m not an o2 customer.

  • TWeller96
    Tom Weller (@TWeller96) reported

    Avoid using @O2 for your phone! Issue raised over 5 months ago and still not sorted. So much for O2 Priority. Look elsewhere!

  • JohnTillUK
    John Till (@JohnTillUK) reported

    My saga with @o2 just gets better and better. Raise a complaint and asked to be contacted by email, receive an acknowledgement of my preference… So what do they do, try calling me instead. Getting sick of it now.

  • teejwxm
    TJ (@teejwxm) reported

    @O2 There obviously is, I don’t need to check. Nobody is able to get a signal.
