@o2 why is your service unusable in areas that your map says has good coverage? No backhaul bandwidth? B90 4AJ poor outside nothing inside. B13 0UR poor inside. Intermittent connectivity in spite of reasonable signal. Three works perfectly onside and out.

@O2 just changing to O2 as I opted for deal with Virgin. Disappointed with how poor your coverage is locally in the B90 area. Where I had over 200mbits 5G with three, I am now lucky to get 20mbits with O2. Do you have plans to improve your network? Have I made a mistake?

@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 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 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

@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

@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.

@O2 Getting very close to the point of cancelling my order. The port has failed and I have no service. Cannot get through to your support as there are no agents available. No reply to FB message since 9 am. The clock is ticking...

I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

Thieving gits @O2 have increased my daughters mobile costs by 17% having only taken contract in Feb. How do they justify it apart from greed, exploitation and extortion. Signal isn’t even good on M42, so not being spent on infrastructure. @MartinSLewis

@O2 further to my texts yesterday about your 360 system implementation. We purchased a phone from you yesterday but were unable to pay in total. We have tried to pay today but O2 cannot take payment. Never have I had a company so reluctant to be paid.

@O2 had no signal at work for over two weeks… not ideal for receiving emails and work things and certainly not why I pay you an extortionate amount per month!

@O2 Day 137 of 365 on trying to get O2 to fix their phone customer service. 1) If you ring and ask for an e-sim for an Apple Watch then good luck with that. Staff seem very untrained. 2) Calls disconnect too much when speaking on 202. 3) The whole IVR system feels dated.

@O2 so is it OK to take money for a service you can't supply....? Trading standards issue perhaps...?

Been with @O2 for 13 consecutive years (no idea why) and I can’t believe how bad the network has become in that period of time. If you’re anywhere with even the smallest crowd you can forget about any decent signal.

@brannock59 @O2 I don’t know how they can justify charging so much more than other providers when they can’t even provide a decent service. I’ve been with them for over 10 years but will not be renewing either
