    @O2 customer service nailing it once again! Information on the website is about as useful as having a third armpit, and then you call and the automated system cuts you off. Bravo you feckless morons 👏 🙄

    @O2 Your call centre operatives are rude & your information is misleading. I’ll be paying this device off then switching my network ✨

    @simonmaroulis @O2 @ThreeUK The mast near me. Hasn’t worked in now 19months. I understand dead spots, but I struggle to get a 4g signal anywhere. Utterly ridiculous.

    Charlotte (@charlll18x) reported from Dudley, England

    Don’t know what I’m paying for as it is can’t name a place I actually get signal, now a massive price increase. Can’t wait to leave @O2

    @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!!

    @O2 what’s with the dodgey service today 🙄

  • paulberry2303
    Paul Berry (@paulberry2303) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @O2 I have today received another letter telling me the phone is blocked. I don’t have an O2 phone. I have never had an O2 phone. I don’t owe any money. I know you are looking at it but surely you can put a block on correspondence while you do?

    @paulwrightyboy @O2 @tescomobile @VodafoneUK I’ve raised this issue with both networks, collectively they don’t give a toss, this is the problem

  • Tracey_Devina
    Tracey_Devina (@Tracey_Devina) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 I’m at home for the next 5+ days with covid, my data’s gone, I followed up a text I received to say up my data… it starts on Friday - what’s the actual point. Can you help now, when it matters?!

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @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 sorry correct tag now!! 13 years+ with three and no real discount for loyalty and pushy chat op trying to get me to have a S22! Nah not a hope! #TeamPixel ftw! I hope @O2 will treat me well

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @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?

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @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...

    smudge90210 (@smudge90210) reported

    @O2 your call centre is awful! Trying to upgrade to a new O2 phone but being made to buy out of my sim only O2 contract but staying with O2. The foreign call centre can’t understand this

  • kesbyac
    Adrian Kesby (@kesbyac) reported

    @O2 I just want to change tariff to 10GB plan. I’m with Virgin Media so that becomes 20GB which is perfectly adequate. Sim Onlys are circa £15 which is fine but was told in store that I can’t port my number on the same network!

  • BMcFarlaneUK
    Brandon McFarlane (@BMcFarlaneUK) reported

    Just completed my first test on the Buffering Britain app. Not surprised to get a result of "no usable signal" in my house in Preston on @O2.

  • DLWilliams1612
    donna williams (@DLWilliams1612) reported

    Is there anyway to submit a complaint to @O2 via email? Their online form doesn’t work and I don’t have hours to sit on the phone and go over something that I have already spend hours on the phone dealing with.

  • oujibob
    kathryn green (@oujibob) reported

    ****** off now been with @O2 for years and the last two weeks I’ve had no service and things only work when I’m connected to WiFi. Can’t ring them to sort it and trying to do a complaints form and even that won’t sodding send

  • seadaisy81
    seadaisy (@seadaisy81) reported

    @O2 dealt with some truly awful members of your team today trying to now make a formal complaint via email and get my phone back and no one will give me an email address please sort this out asap

  • andrewwillough3
    Andrew willoughby (@andrewwillough3) reported

    @O2 It isn’t just my area. I travel the three counties of Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. The network coverage in all these areas are suddenly poor

  • ExNHSorthopod
    Mark Bloomfield (@ExNHSorthopod) reported

    @O2 Your agent just tried to tell me that RECEIVING International Call (I.e. from outside UK) whilst in UK (I.e. NOT roaming) on my O2 registered mobile (UK domestic customer) is chargeable. What?! No, should NOT need any ‘bolt on’! Charging me as described above is ILLEGAL!

  • cliffordh
    𝘾lifford (@cliffordh) reported

    I've been an @O2 PAYG customer for over 15years. Recently I've been getting a "New voicemail" message - why? I have purposly never enabled voicemail since it costs 35p a time to check.

    @dbcxptures O2 gone really poor, I’m in Cornwall no reception in most places, avoid @O2
