    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 🤢

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

    I also had the young lad on the call say “if I cancel any of your charges today I was told my job would be effected” disgusting @O2 - instead of gas lighting your clients and threatening your staff, perhaps get a member of management to actually do their job and HELP!?

    @O2 sorry correct tag now!! 13 years+ with three and no real discount for loyalty and pushy chat op trying to get me to have a S22! Nah not a hope! #TeamPixel ftw! I hope @O2 will treat me well

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

  • Cheadle
    Hooty McOwlface (@Cheadle) reported from Birmingham, England

    @whatphilsaid @O2 It’s horrendous. Who would have thought the network could actually get worse as technology improves

    John (@John10649040) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 @jimswanstonlive That crap answer does not improve your **** network . How about Birmingham B12 again utter Shite signal ! Guess what I know the local mast is down but it has been ever since I have been with you !

    @o2. Like clockwork every week O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Sorry, a phone mast close to you isn't working as well as we would expect Our engineers are carrying out some checks to investigate issues in this area...

  • 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

  • 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

    @paulwrightyboy @O2 @TelefonicaUK @MarkEvansO2 Full signal now...

  • Tracey_Devina
    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?!

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

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

  • 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.

  • EvanD
    Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 @virginmedia Further to this, he has now told me that as I get a £15/month discount for my 1st 6 months with O2, I need to cancel that and pay full price in order to get the extra #Volt speed boost with VM

  • PhilTonks2
    Phil Tonks (@PhilTonks2) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 Just runs very slow, if at all. Advised in the past to change settings in phone to use 3G but it's hardly practical to keep doing this. 4G+ in the City Centre just seems overloaded much of the time. Other half on Vodafone no issues at all. Very frustrating.

  • Crystalcraftand
    Crystalcraft Andy (@Crystalcraftand) reported from Dudley, England

    @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)

  • 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?

  • KittykatClaire
    Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    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

  • csljohnkirby
    John Kirby (@csljohnkirby) reported

    @Alicetweets @O2 credits of £165 and £54.42 missing been on hold, cut off through security 5 times since 16.17 today, and it is now 18.14 and told that the credits have been moved, but they can not tell me where, and there is no senior person than the rude and obstructive individual I am talking to, and he has lied to me three times during this call, which is mean to be recorded.

  • ebamsky
    Skylier (@ebamsky) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 You're right. O2 should be the worst. I've used Three (more of coverage than quality problem) which was fair, I've recently ported to EE-based provider from O2.

  • fellbytheway
    fell (@fellbytheway) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE is that a government issue or the network provider lack of investment ?

  • SimonTa44447286

    @O2 @Gary_Polley I dont beleve owt o2 say anymore ..dm is rubbish .still no reply after a month ..and a bill for a service i was told 3 times had finished ..

  • paz565
    Paz DLXV (@paz565) reported

    @O2 The whole 'customer service' provided by O2 in relation to this matter has been nothing short of appalling. As O2 is now associated with Virgin Media, I will be taking the earliest opportunity available to switch the services I have with them too.

    @O2 Awful service from your chat service.

  • clairew930
    Claire Louise (@clairew930) reported

    @O2 please can you advise why your app never seems to work anymore when trying to view bills or make payments. It’s become a joke since you merged with Virgin

  • gdennigan
    Gerry D (@gdennigan) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE You’ve obviously never tried to work on the TGV from Paris to Nancy or the Deutsche-Bahn equivalent from Paris to Frankfurt?

  • EadrictheWild
    👨🏻‍💻 ⚡️ (@EadrictheWild) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE Becuase partly we don't put enough masts In (5g requires them every 300 meteres in cities) and partly because there's 10 million people more using our phone network than in the official cencus

  • CraigGodders
    Craig-David (@CraigGodders) reported

    @O2 can I legally leave my contract with you because of how poor the signal is? There’s a good mile square ld of my town I can’t get any 4g at all.
