Gish Abeyratne (@GoGishiGoGo) reported from Birmingham, England@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 👏 🙄

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.

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?

-
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.

paul woolley (@macwool) reported from Brownhills, England@O2 I’m unable to remember my security question answer in order to change my password to view my a/c the system won’t accent any answers to other questions & customer care is unobtainable. It’s rubbish & unhelpful. I feel very cross!!!😡

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?

MUFC Chatter (@mufcchatter) reported@O2 PLEASE HELP! I found out today that I have a CCJ on my file from O2 from 2024. This relates to a bundled SIM with a Virgin Broadband contract which was cancelled before it was set up due to credit. The O2 sim was supposed to be cancelled to but it wasn't!
-
JCB (@Plsdoright) reported@O2 Another worrying call for someone claiming to be from O2 advising my sim is no longer usable and anew one would be delivered tomorrow. Have had about 10 similar calls! However previous callers didn’t call me a M….F…..when I declined. Please help @O2
-
Ikram ⚡️ (@Ikram_hhh) reportedThis is a serious question @O2 but why is your signal coverage so ****** shite I get better signal coverage in the Balkans for just basic cellular coverage never mind 4/5G Meanwhile here in the UK it is 💩
-
Naz Rahimi (@NazRahimi) reported@O2 you won’t let me log in to cancel my account, you are fraudulently taking my money while not letting me log in on desktop or my phone. You said you’d call me to allow me to cancel and it’s been a month. Now you say you can’t call me. I do not live in England. LET ME CANCEL.
-
Karen McCormick (@MrsMac1412) reported@O2 is it possible to find out why the o2 signal in RG45 area is still so bad, missing calls left right and centre over here!! Needs sorting sooner rather than later 🙄
-
ShinP3ngy (@NotSoP3ng) reported@lloydoh17 @O2 I’ve been with them a very long time and never had issues like I have each month I’m looking at other networks coz the constant price increases and the drop in service it’s not worth it tbh
-
david taylor (@dt297) reportedThe good thing about being on @O2 is that I didn’t get that emergency message about BBQs because as usual I have no ******* phone signal in my house!
-
Neil Lilly (@NeilLilly) reported@O2 No signal at all in Aberdaron. No signal in Porthmadog and no signal in Beddgelert. What am I paying for with this rubbish service?
-
Neil G (@granth1974) reportedIs it worth actually playing Spin to Win? Never win anything and makes me depressed on a Monday. What a shite "game". Fire whoever came up with the concept. @O2

Deano... (@Frugal_ways) reported@humantorch1036 @O2 @Ofcom Unless an issue is happening to a certain number of people, watchdogs, official bodies, etc. Do nothing. So they just plod along, counting numbers, with little to offer. Also, there is no such thing as, "An independent watchdog/official body" - they are in each other's pockets.
