-
Iraoladdict (@PJH1974) reported@O2 I am tired of using your My Network app to report no service, only to get a "Our network monitoring system hasn’t currently identified any issues at this location" SMS back. There is NO DATA in AL5 2RU - the centre of Harpenden town - for several months. It needs fixing!!!
-
CRoM (@romeocln) reportedI moved from @ThreeUK to @O2 and nothing has improved on signal. Blind spots alll over the places. What I really don't get why you don't get anything on 4 antena bars? And could be anywhere in London
-
Andrew Pease (@Andy_pease) reported@O2 Reception in our area GL54 is appalling with only an E service available all to often You dismiss our feedback saying there is no problem when clearly there is . Stop ignoring the problem and fix it
-
Shaun Hammonds (@hammo196159) reported@kokeshimum @O2 Because O2 don’t invest enough into infrastructure. Such poor coverage in many areas
-
Robert Keith (@rl_keith) reported@kokeshimum @O2 All service in the UK is bad. The providers occasionally say they'll build a few more cell towers. Then the village NIMBY will object, and the provider will use the excuse to save money and not build the tower.
-
Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported@Frugal_ways @O2 @virginmedia Frustrating isn’t it? Now imagine that’s the only way you can actually pay the bill and O2 force you onto a promise to pay to restore service, tell you that you must pay, and it’s still not fixed! (Long story. Disabled, only method I can use is via the app or website) thanks O2🙄
-
Mighty Tinman (@Mighty_Tinman) reported@kokeshimum @O2 Why on earth have you stayed with O2 for 15 years? Of the 4 (now 3) operators, they are easily the worst.
-
Darth Wader (@LordoftheSplash) reported@kokeshimum @O2 02 are ****, we’ve moved to Smarty this week as it happens, just fed up with the terrible service and constant price rises.
-
iz (@iz__zy) reported@lynne_lil_devil @O2 I’ve had the same issue and no one can help and I’ve topped up again and still nothing it’s just annoying now

Martin 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇫🇷🤿🐝🔶 a true European (@mls4711) reported@kokeshimum @O2 I was in Thailand last year. Even at sea, and away from the coast, I was so surprised to notice that I had a strong signal!
