    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??

  • gracielou_xx
    Gracie xo (@gracielou_xx) reported from Swindon, England

    I can’t believe I was on the phone to @O2 for a good hour and all senior members of staff refusing to come to the phone to answer queries about random, large charges on my bill. Instead leaving a less qualified member to try and help with absolutely no support or assistance 🤢

    steve beard (@steve8454) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 ok...this is ridiculous. My son is desperately trying to unlock his phone from o2 so he can use 3 network. Nobody is available from o2. Rang every day for 2 hrs, no reply. Live chat offline. No reply to tweets. Pls can somebody tell me how he can sort it. He has no phone!

    @paulwrightyboy @O2 @tescomobile @VodafoneUK I’ve raised this issue with both networks, collectively they don’t give a toss, this is the problem

    @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 .

  • MikeKlymko
    Mike Klymko (@MikeKlymko) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 really disappointed with the service I’m getting from O2. Poor coverage, dropped calls, slow texts, no internet, been like this for 5 months, No sign of a fix, difficult call centre staff hide behind “policy” to avoid being helpful. If you need a new provider - Avoid O2

  • charlll18x
    Charlotte (@charlll18x) reported from Dudley, England

    Don’t know what I’m paying for as it is can’t name a place I actually get signal, now a massive price increase. Can’t wait to leave @O2

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 9 hours after you reported it fixed (again). O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

    @BigJMusic @O2 @ThreeUK Did that... never looked back! Do it

  • LittleMissCosta
    Tina-Louise Boyce (@LittleMissCosta) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 I've tried this just now, they've said they've sent a code to my number but I've got no service to receive the text..

  • goingabitgrey
    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.

  • notdodgy
    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.

  • MikeKlymko
    Mike Klymko (@MikeKlymko) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 Called to complain about poor network coverage where I live and work. Battery died whilst waiting on hold forever.

  • PeteVillan1981
    Carpy Villan™️ (@PeteVillan1981) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    How 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

  • sabphotos69
    SAB Photography (@sabphotos69) reported from Woodside, England

    @simonmaroulis @O2 @ThreeUK The mast near me. Hasn’t worked in now 19months. I understand dead spots, but I struggle to get a 4g signal anywhere. Utterly ridiculous.

  • DeanMSimons
    Dean but festive (@DeanMSimons) reported from Birmingham, England

    hey @O2, I’m trying to enter my IMEI number on the Recycle site to start the process of trade in for my new contract but it’s not accepting it? Pretty sure my iPhone is genuine after all these years haha. Could you help?

  • StevoJones1984
    Steve Jones (@StevoJones1984) reported from West Bromwich, England

    I seriously can't wait to get off @O2. Their customer service has been top notch, but the signal is beyond a joke.

  • ellrbrown
    Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I think my mom had the same text the other day. So had to help her by marking as spam and blocking it.

  • auspices

    anyone else I know have @O2 as a mobile phone network? I may as well not have a phone it’s straight up awful coverage

    Sarah Loughran (@SarahDruscilla) reported

    @O2 in this day & age, why do we still have to settle for a signal that is “patchy indoors”. Got a text today saying our network issue has been fixed. Zero improvement. Still only 1 bar indoors. I had a better signal with O2, 20 years ago!!

  • KopiteinPoland
    KopiteinPoland (@KopiteinPoland) reported

    I never had issue with @o2 until they merged with virgin media. Now I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone. You try and use the website, pages don’t load. Information isn’t available. How do you keep on top of your account. #awfulservice #neveragain

  • ItsWelford
    Josh W (@ItsWelford) reported

    @TakeThatClouds @O2 They all do the same thing. They know you don’t have service but can’t help you until you give them a code text to the phone with no service. ******* idiots all of them.

    @o2 @virginmedia CEO LUTZ SCHUELER seems rather that sending the DEADLOCK letter your team actually want to CANCEL my COMPLAINT!!!!

    @O2 I have inboxed you guys regarding my complaint can you please respond

  • NoemieN22

    @O2 why is your signal so poor in Cambridgeshire

  • _lliesl_
    Liesl_ (@_lliesl_) reported

    @O2 Stop using Indian call centers. You bastards are making plenty of money The people you are employing do not give a ****. They are lying to your customers

  • Dgooch66
    🎗️Turnbull and Proud 🍉💚🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@Dgooch66) reported

    Still more AI drivel from @o2 instead of actual customer service, I will not deal with AI to sort out a problem of your making, advertise goods how your prepared to sell them don't try and flimflam customers or you'll end up losing them like you have in our case.

  • sadelta99
    Andy (@sadelta99) reported

    @O2 yet again signal issues in CB24 area - only one bar signal and 5G dropping out to 4g which is practically useless here

  • _njwebster
    Nicola Webster (@_njwebster) reported

    @O2 why is the signal in so21 2DD non-existent? My phone powers my business and the unreliability of signal is becoming untenable.
