  • 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.

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

    @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

    @O2 ok...this is ridiculous. My son is desperately trying to unlock his phone from o2 so he can use 3 network. Nobody is available from o2. Rang every day for 2 hrs, no reply. Live chat offline. No reply to tweets. Pls can somebody tell me how he can sort it. He has no phone!

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I think my mom had the same text the other day. So had to help her by marking as spam and blocking it.

  • salleechua Sally Chua (@salleechua) reported

    @O2 Your retention team is refusing to let me terminate my contract and told me to wait. This is ridiculous. So that means I am going to another to another provider to get my contract terminated.

  • jamespaul19900 JamesPaul.† (@jamespaul19900) reported

    @O2 Had the phone since September last year I think, iPhone 13 pro max, software up to date and no damage. Thanks

  • philshilling phil shilling (@philshilling) reported

    Does anyone else on @O2 have issues connect to such thing as Remote Desktop Services when they're using their phone as a hotspot?

  • CryptoBillFutur CryptoBill (@CryptoBillFutur) reported

    @O2 Hi, I've just Dm'd about requesting pac code from o2 with no credit left. Please help

  • salleechua Sally Chua (@salleechua) reported

    @O2 I have been trying to reach fraud team all morning but no success. Customer service informs me they need 30 days to investigate and in the meantime I cannot text, call or use internet. Is this for real?

  • AndrewJamesB82 Andrew (@AndrewJamesB82) reported

    @itspaulactually @MartinSLewis @O2 data signal has been poor for over a month now. Still manage to take the payment with no issues though

  • JonahHickling jönäh (@JonahHickling) reported

    @O2 two months later and you have still not solved my issue. Every time I am told to wait for a phone call and that my case is top priority, I never hear back. One word: Ombudsman

  • jd_duncalf JD (@jd_duncalf) reported

    Yet again another pointless phone call with customer service with @O2 absolute JOKE of a service, call yourself a phone company and can’t even fix a problem with calls

  • bethanhalliday bethan (@bethanhalliday) reported

    Why is @O2 the worst. Remind me never to take a contract out with them again x
