  • crazysamsam Samantha Thompson (@crazysamsam) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Your customer service has been awful at this difficult time @O2. We had to call your bereavement department so many times to sort out the bill you said you’d wave, and this has caused us much stress and anxiety. To then contact us again on FATHER’S DAY is extremely cruel.

  • longhairdsgtmaj Betsy Snow (@longhairdsgtmaj) reported from Wombourne, England

    @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!!

  • macwool paul woolley (@macwool) reported from Brownhills, England

    @O2 I’m unable to remember my security question answer in order to change my password to view my a/c the system won’t accent any answers to other questions & customer care is unobtainable. It’s rubbish & unhelpful. I feel very cross!!!😡

  • GeorgievaEV Elena Georgieva (@GeorgievaEV) reported

    @O2 What happens exactly when you try to use your services? - When I try and ring a number (0300) one, it gives like a "busy" signal, I've tried several times including your 0344 helpline, same result. When I dial a normal number, it seems to be working. 1/

  • bazc1982 Barry (@bazc1982) reported

    @Omeran3 @O2 What they don’t do is beat @EE for 4G never mind 5G coverage which incase you didn’t realise is their main job not dishing out wee daft freebies
