    @O2 had a called yesterday about a upgrade and the person was going to call me back at 3.00 yesterday I am still waiting....this morning I have called been on hold for 30 minutes to be cut off what a joke bad customer service...I have been a customer with you for 18 years

  • 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.

  • LittleMissCosta Tina-Louise Boyce (@LittleMissCosta) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 I've just tried this, they've said they've sent me a text with a code but I don't have any service to receive the text. So now I'm stuck..

  • SophieMDrake Sophie Drake (@SophieMDrake) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 It’s having to be escalated due to a back office technical fault, issue on My O2 and the account behind the scenes, so I’m without data when out of the house for up to 10 days. Not ideal really!

  • ChrisSammons_ Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @paulwrightyboy @O2 @TelefonicaUK @MarkEvansO2 Full signal now...

  • Kay70466920 Kay (@Kay70466920) reported

    @O2 @O2 + I was asked for the card number of my account of which I declined to share. THIS IS NOT THE WAY TO TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS. I WANT MY £151.00 BACK IMMEDIATELY AS TOLD BY O2. THIS IS NOT GOOD BUSINESS TO GO BACK ON YOUR WORD IN GOOD FAITH.

  • magsfoxyloxy Maggie (@magsfoxyloxy) reported

    @O2 Only. Sorry. Typo!! We are middle of Orlando and have always have 4g before. Let me try connecting to a different network. Should we have had a roaming text?

  • SPG8250978 S P G (@SPG8250978) reported

    @Extinguisherman @O2 Service has been good so far till 7 or so days ago, might have been longer. If there is a cell issue around here - then these things happen, but if it goes on much longer then I will be looking for more information or compensation. Hope you get your issue resolved.

  • eledoina1 Ev Li (@eledoina1) reported

    @O2 switched to O2 from Vodafone, seven days down the line the number has still not been ported, meaning I have no mobile service with any of the networks!!! If I knew O2 would take ages to transfer the number I would have never switched. 'Great' start O2..

  • Extinguisherman Dale Watts (@Extinguisherman) reported

    @KyleighFisher10 @O2 Hi, I am sure o2 have issues with their network, if you don’t feel satisfied with the response from o2 maybe retweet your complaint using BBCWatchdog and Which magazine tags. I fed up with o2 network and customer service. Need to get something done

  • jamesoll James Ollerenshaw (@jamesoll) reported

    Hey @O2, I'm trying to call you to cancel a contract for a broadband dongle. No one is answering the phone. How else can I cancel this?

  • magsfoxyloxy Maggie (@magsfoxyloxy) reported

    @O2 Tried rebooting my phone. Tried manually selecting network but didn’t want to connect to them. Just so unusual as we always get a text and we always have 4g here
