Benjamin Forster (@beyondmach5) reported@FrankFWJH @O2 Looks like a satellite render to me, which cause angle distortion if it’s tilted view of Earth and not top-down

Drew Grant (@drewsy92) reportedEvery single month I have trouble accessing the my o2 app, since it’s became virgin media! Absolute joke can never pay my bill in time because of it, doesn’t let me sign in even though the details are correct!! Shouldn’t have to phone up every month to sort it! @O2 @virginmedia
-
jess (@pussyisgvd) reported@O2 It’s been almost 24 hours and this still isn’t resolved. Please fix this before I issue a chargeback with my bank
-
Akin Mizrak (@aknmzrk) reported@O2 Then could you please help me with requesting a back‑end change to re‑associate the My O2 profile with my number instead please? Best regards,Akin.
-
Ronnie (@ronak_malde) reported@O2 I am writing to urgently seek clarification regarding a refund that was due to be credited to my bank account. The refund was initiated on May 9, 2026, and I was informed that the funds would arrive within 3-5 business days. As of today, the money has still not been returned to my account. My experience with your customer service channels thus far has been incredibly frustrating. The primary reason I chose to migrate to another carrier was due to poor service, and this current delay only confirms that I made the right decision. Given the lack of flexibility and the difficulties I have faced, I can no longer recommend your services to others. If you feel that you have it in your heart to give me back my refund, please reach out. If not, have a meal at Wagamamas on me!

🇬🇧 Andy🇬🇧 (@4peterborough) reported@O2 Like I said I have made a formal complaint 02 directly. They have a set amount of time to respond before I take it to @Ofcom if you have call centers overseas make sure the we can understand them. Refusing the 14 day change of mind is illegal fortunately, this is gonna cost £££££
