-

-
Sophie Drake (@SophieMDrake) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 It’s having to be escalated due to a back office technical fault, issue on My O2 and the account behind the scenes, so I’m without data when out of the house for up to 10 days. Not ideal really!
-
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.
-
The McFugget (@Paul1366) reported from Tamworth District, England@O2 Any known issues with the phone service in Tamworth and Lichfield. I can barely make phone calls and it shows I have 4g but the Internet is awfully slow.
-
Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, EnglandSeems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.
-
Lysander 🦆 (@Lysander_16) reported from Wednesfield, EnglandHey @O2 is there a actually a mast issue in Wolverhampton? As I've been receiving little to no Internet while I'm at work (WV10) It's been about 2 weeks. I'm not the only one either. Checked your service status and says there's a mast issue but it hasn't been fixed. Any ideas?
-
richard (@auspices) reported from Birmingham, Englandanyone else I know have @O2 as a mobile phone network? I may as well not have a phone it’s straight up awful coverage
-
Jackie (@UKHarvick_Fan) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 is there a issue with a website ? I’ve paid for a phone twice now online and it still says unpaid …. And you’ve got my money !! Plus the phone is needed to employer to call me !!
-
Mike Klymko (@MikeKlymko) reported from Dudley, England@O2 You’re having a laugh !! Can’t get a decent signal at home - let alone elsewhere.
-
han (@Hannahbreenx) reported from Bromsgrove, England@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
-
Nas Mahmud (@M5Mahmud) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 I had a issue with my billing and spoke to several of your phone assistants who did not help much at all, kept batting me off to Ariel Direct who also were useless. I finally got through to Tracy who explained the situation in 2 mins and resolved the issue, pls reward her.
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@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.
-
Andrew Horton (@Villandrew) reported from Solihull, England@villa19799 @O2 My mrs Is with @O2 and signal and 4G has been horrific lately, I’m on @virginmedia and have had no issues whatsoever .
-
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.
-
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.
-
Carpy Villan™️ (@PeteVillan1981) reported from Wolverhampton, EnglandHow poor is the coverage from @virgin mobile? Since the merger with @O2 the mobile coverage is appalling. Massive price increase on all plans/ packages yet the network service is worse than ever
-
ChrisJSharratt_ (@ChrisJSharratt_) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 I ordered a phone on the train today and only found out you need ID after. I have a copy on my phone, you can check with my work and I will be getting rid of this phone in an hour!!!!!! What ******** am I meant to do?!!!!!
-
Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England@paulwrightyboy @O2 @TelefonicaUK @MarkEvansO2 Full signal now...
-
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?!

-
Paul ▶️ (@customerchamp1) reportedWho remembers when @O2 customer service was good? Since the merger with the appalling @virginmedia it's been absolutely diabolical. Trying to help a vulnerable relative, been on hold for 45 minutes 🤮🤮🤮 to reset his password. Shameful.
-
Ham (@Jonny_Ham) reported25+ years with @O2 BT Cellnet, finally had enough, signal absolutely shocking, totally gone down the pan.
-
Andy Furnival (@AndyFurnival2) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 EE are just as bad. All networks believe the utter bollocks they peddle that coverage is fantastic. It was better when it was 3G. If only there was a regulator that could put an end to theoretical coverage maps 🤔
-
Emma - Cymru am Byth 🏴🐋💜 (@spot5) reported@O2 seventh day without a signal at work. No phone, no Internet, nothing, due to a problem with a mast. Please get it sorted, we are really fed up
-
Snow&Fairways (@IcyFairways) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 @EE Sane with three. Garbage.
-
Gwen (@GwenSauce) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 OMG … you’re on O2 too? EE was bad so moved to O2 and they are bad too
-
Chris Langsford (@chris_langsford) reported@EnglandRugby @O2 Just give the poor guys a break, Jesus Christ.
-
Stuart Maun (@MAUNConsulting) reported@O2 Hi there. Was there any resolution to this? I never actually received my email for the Greggs Sweet Treat I won last week, and nothing showing. Have I gone from a 'winner' to a 'loser' :o( - Hopefully there will be some way you can track it - sent my details last week on DM
-
James (@James62876216) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 @EE 14 years in power and it wasn't a problem then?
-
Jo Harrington (@1joharrington) reported@TomTugendhat @O2 UK 5G is dreadful. Third-party user testing from Opensignal and Ookla showed that the everyday user experience in the UK is among the worst in the developed world. 40% of the time your phone shows the "5G" icon in the UK, it is actually running on older 4G infrastructure.
