-
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?
-
George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 your customer service has gone extremely S**T
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@O2 After spending 6 hours trying to get hold of customer services, I ended up driving (and paying for parking) to go to one of your shops to get a sim swap. This apparently the only to get service working. Not the best of starts.
-
Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 Hi, please could you help me with a online store order?
-
steve beard (@steve8454) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 my son has changed network provider from o2 to ee. Waiting 5 days now for tel no to be transferred. Unable to get thru and no response to messages. Its crucial he has a working phone especially at this time. Shameful customer service.....

-

-
John McKeon (@goingabitgrey) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 Very poor, new link provided by @DriiftLive doesn’t support casting to another device there is no excuse for this awful provision.
-
Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, EnglandHi @O2 I've tried to call about a technical problem (more a frustration) regarding voicemail. Called a couple of times last week, where messages advises you were busy. Now the message says, 'Use the website' and then hangs up. Any suggestions?
-
Gracie xo (@gracielou_xx) reported from Swindon, EnglandI also had the young lad on the call say “if I cancel any of your charges today I was told my job would be effected” disgusting @O2 - instead of gas lighting your clients and threatening your staff, perhaps get a member of management to actually do their job and HELP!?
-
Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England@O2 Thanks, it was worth a try, but unfortunately I can't open the link because my connection speed is apparently too slow.
-
Teg Singh (@MrTegSingh) reported from Wolverhampton, England@wolvesclaire @O2 Never been so angry been on the phone since 8.30 cut off 3 times and been transferred to so many different departments. 😡😡😡😡
-
Dad (@RampziieTweets) reported from Walsall Wood, England@TheO2 @O2 can you sort your network in Walsall, Birmingham. I put a complaint in at the beginning of the year and it’s STILL unbearable
-
Matthew Parker-Jones Hall (@mparkerjones) reported from Walsall Wood, England@O2 hi we ever getting a fix for postcodes WS14 and WV14 terrible phone signal and data just doesn't connect mentioned in December and according to your app it would be fixed in 2 weeks ?! 4months later still exactly the same
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@O2 why does the local B90 4AJ mast go faulty EVERY week. 6 weeks in a row now, we get no service until it is repaired. You need better repair engineers as their repairs do not even last a week!!!
-
Betsy Snow (@longhairdsgtmaj) reported from Wombourne, England@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!!
-
Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 B11HQ B4 B42 B44 They are my main postcodes, they used to be fantastic, for about 3 months now signal has drilled into the ground.
-
Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England@O2 Hi, I completely appreciate the guidance there but, no, it doesn't. When I got through three weeks ago, your colleague was going to escalate my query. I never got the promised call back, hence me trying more recently.
-
Steve Jones (@StevoJones1984) reported from West Bromwich, EnglandI seriously can't wait to get off @O2. Their customer service has been top notch, but the signal is beyond a joke.

-
Ben Jackson (@BennyboyJackson) reportedHi @O2 - can you explain how with the tens of millions of pounds you charge customers a month, I still struggle for 4G signal in Hampshire?? Yet, when in the middle of a game reserve in South Africa, I manage full on 5G signal with no interruptions??
-
Quinque (@IBearhugz) reported@Happyengland79 @O2 I’m having the same **** with o2 I wanted to cancel but they convinced me to stay and its been pure **** since then
-
Stevie Brown (@SASBroons) reported@sky @O2 what are you planning to do to compensate customers who have suffered a drop in service due to "upgrades" no service to many in EH26 Penicuik. The timescale getting longer 😤
-
emze (@KerZE87) reported@O2 Patience??? I’ve lost it. I’ll be considering a move to a different network. I’ve been a loyal customer since my first phone and this is how I’m repaid.
-
DataEatsWorld (@dataeatworld) reported@maxkarpis Switched from @O2 to Revolut Mobile a few months ago and couldn't be happier. The service works flawlessly, roaming has been excellent while travelling, and the whole experience has been refreshingly simple. The only problem is that O2 is still charging me despite my number having been successfully transferred. I have proof from Revolut that the porting was completed months ago. Trying to get it resolved has been nearly impossible. Every time I contact O2 support, I end up speaking to an outsourced Indian call centre and nobody seems able to fix the issue.
-
Sunil Sharma (@isunilofficial) reported@O2 Internet service in my area has been very poor for the last 2–3 weeks. It was slow before, but now it’s become almost unusable. Could you please investigate the issue and provide an update? Or we can change to @vodafone_de @deutschetelekom ?
-
Mr J (@Mr__J_J) reported@O2 @Raphas_Angel_ You customers deserve better signal
-
Mr J (@Mr__J_J) reported@O2 @JakeMooreUK Yeah you O2, signal is so bad. My 4g speeds were faster than 5g
-
CPFC J (@cpfcjc) reportedAnyone else having issues with @O2 not responding to customer emails? Reception has been awful for months. I go into the shop & the staff say, "Yeah, we know it's the mast on top of a block of flats & don't know when it will be fixed." So I email twice and still get no answer.
-
Gale (@gaeilicgal) reported@O2 will we be reimbursed for the service outage in BT703HE and surrounding areas? A phone mast isn't working, your agent can't say when it will be fixed. Paying for a service and no communication, no ETA of service restoration and no data/coverage.
