    @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.

  • matthew_74 Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Hi @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?

  • _Rachele_ Rachele (@_Rachele_) reported from Birmingham, England

    Help @O2 - I want to upgrade to the Huawei P30 Pro but it says it's not in stock. Will it ever be or can we not get Huawei anymore?

  • M5Mahmud 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.

  • adam0604 Adam Waterhouse (@adam0604) reported from Halesowen, England

  • paulberry2303 Paul Berry (@paulberry2303) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @O2 I have today received another letter telling me the phone is blocked. I don’t have an O2 phone. I have never had an O2 phone. I don’t owe any money. I know you are looking at it but surely you can put a block on correspondence while you do?

  • 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.

  • GoGishiGoGo 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 👏 🙄

  • berniebaps101 ҍҽɾղíҽҍɑԹՏ ♏ (@berniebaps101) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 It’s ok now thank you. It was down for about 25 mins across a number of phones

  • GoGishiGoGo Gish Abeyratne (@GoGishiGoGo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Device is damaged. Your website and app are as clear as mud about repairs and replacements. I'm on hold waiting for an advisor to be available (20 minutes elapsed). Can you help me out?

  • Lysander_16 Lysander 🦆 (@Lysander_16) reported from Wednesfield, England

    Hey @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?

  • DirtySurti Ketan Surti (@DirtySurti) reported from Dickens Heath, England

    @O2 your service is terrible and I haven't even fully moved over from my current provider. Managed to move 2 sims across but struggling with two more. Keep getting a declined, then your customer service team call saying can see incomplete order but then cut me off !

    @O2 Do not go anywhere near this company . Been on hold over an hr to cancel a sim, passed from pillar to post . 3rd day in a row I’ve tried to cancel this . Customer service is non existent

  • wonder_girlx Stacie-Jaynee Darton (@wonder_girlx) reported

    @sealteamsix22 @O2 I had the call, asked how my service was o2 was. They wanted to give me 45% off then sent exactly the same texts as you. Googled the number and it came up as a scam centre. Just a shame @O2 never replied to me

  • NicholasFawcet5 Nicholas Fawcett (@NicholasFawcet5) reported

    @O2 1hr 24 minutes on hold and counting listening to mind numbing god awful music .

  • Suw Suw (@Suw) reported

    @paulm844 @O2 @Ofcom Mine's gone from £12 to £14 in 10 months. OK, it's only a couple of quid, but everything's going up. They're blaming increased data use, though the data service here is rubbish. Half the time I can only get 3G.

  • Syedofficial90 Sy Ahmed (@Syedofficial90) reported

    @O2 Can someone from customer service call me? I’ve been on the line for 45 minutes at a time for the past few days but no luck!!! Ridiculous!

  • Jackerlus_ Jackerlus (@Jackerlus_) reported

    @TheTacticalBrit @O2 fyi, tesco mobile use the O2 network infrastructure and aren't including annual CPI increases in contracts until 27th march. if you want a locked price pick up a contract with them before that date.

  • hariderwisch Hari Derwisch (@hariderwisch) reported

    @O2 why do you have the “lines are unusually busy and there will be a long wait” announcement? It’s not unusual, it’s your modus operandi. The hold time is bad enough without you insulting my intelligence.
