@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?

@O2 I assume free coffee is cheaper than investing in network capacity.

@O2 can you stop advising people to "reset network settings" when your network has problems. This didn't fix the problem with your network and unfortunately wipes out all WiFi and Bluetooth settings, which then need manually setting up again. Not good advice at all.

@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...

@O2 I haven’t had any signal in my own home for 2 weeks and when I check online it says there won’t be an update until the 10th of June. How is that acceptable for a paying customer? I’ve missed an extremely important medical call back because they can’t get through to me

@O2 have still not processed a refund from March/April (despite being promised at the time I wouldn’t even be overcharged and my account had already been credited) Two weeks ago I was told payment would be with me in 5 days but I’m chasing ONCE AGAIN Atrocious customer service

I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

@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.

I’ve just been in to the @O2 store to get a new sim, fantastic service in store, however, I was shocked to find my contract has gone up £6 since October? How does that work??

@O2 so Im looking to upgrade my phone. Problem is, the elements of my pay monthly plan are now split and out of sync. Virgin Handset is now mine but 20 months left on O2 airtime plan. I cant cancel my O2 plan in order to start again (it wont let me change tariffs for 20 months)

@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 partner quoted £90 for recycling his phone to find out that an issue that is technically a fault (screen burn) will result in only receiving £18. Clearly a trick used by o2 to get customers to stay. He's now tied in to a 3yr contract but will be leaving ASAP. As will I.

@O2 Restarting doesn’t work! Network checker says “Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry. Our engineers are likely to be on the case already, and your service might come and go until we fix it.” N12 7AS. I’m literally at my wits end, it’s been 4 days!😤

Ordered the iPhone 14 Pro Max 3 weeks ago from O2 outlet and was due to collect it yesterday but still hasn’t arrived. Apple and/or O2 should be compensating anyone who is experiencing supplier issues. Not good enough! @O2

@O2 tomorrow will be 4 weeks since ordering my iPhone pro max, which one of your customer service ladies rang me to upgrade about I might add! She told me up to 4 weeks for delivery. Any chance I’ll get it soon? This is ridiculous!!!

Hey @O2 !! How can you just justify charging me £7.20 per MB without notifying me of the charges on my arrival onto the Singapore network - my account is now suspended until I clear the bill but can not receive the pw reset code as my 3G is suspended!!! This is a joke!!!

@O2 Your colleague stated they would send me out a new SIM - and has CANCELLED my current Sim. The were not meant to do that. I went into my closest store and was told they should not have deactivated me current one and they can't do anything. I was without any signal yesterday.....

@O2 No online chat available for PAYG! Twitter handle ignores the tweets for help. On calling cust care they are least bothered and try to sell the products! They can’t even get a sim delivered. Bad experience even before starting with O2! I’m done ❌

My phone seems to have stopped functioning properly since my most recent iOS updates. Network connection rubbish. Apps not working. I now have a mobile phone that is useless while mobile. Is this an @o2 problem or an @Apple problem?
