Tom Bradshaw (@_tombradshaw) reported from Birmingham, England@EnglandRugby @SixNationsRugby @O2 Hate seeing Marchant out the 23, feels like he never gets a run of games… but a strong team, and a hell of a bench!
-
SAB Photography (@sabphotos69) reported from Dudley, England@TheOldDear @O2 @EnglandRugby You’d think it would be easy to provide a service considering they charge me……….. wait for it £67 a month. I get no signal at all most of the time. Yet apparently engineers are working on it.

Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England@rachaelxspragg @O2 My update was via Email - BECAUSE I HAVEN’T SIGNAL SINCE MARCH 3RD 😂
-
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.
-
Chris Sammons (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 I appreciate theres obviously a serious issue, I’ve never known signal to be down for so long at one time. There needs to be a conversation at some stage regarding a substantial reimbursement on this months tariff, because to not have any signal whatsoever for this long is a pain
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@O2 working like clockwork? It goes faulty every week. "O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England@paulwrightyboy @O2 @TelefonicaUK @MarkEvansO2 I have full signal...and 4G
-
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 !
-
Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England@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.
-
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!
-
Suki Randhawa (@sukirandhawa4x4) reported from Walsall Wood, England@O2 why is your reception in the #WestMidlands so bad #Willenhall #Walsall showing 4G internet buffering all the time, considering moving on to another network after 20 plus years with you.
-
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 why is your service unusable in areas that your map says has good coverage? No backhaul bandwidth? B90 4AJ poor outside nothing inside. B13 0UR poor inside. Intermittent connectivity in spite of reasonable signal. Three works perfectly onside and out.
-
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.
-
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.

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)
-
batgirl (@amanmarway) reported from West Bromwich, England@O2 have still not processed a refund from March/April (despite being promised at the time I wouldn’t even be overcharged and my account had already been credited) Two weeks ago I was told payment would be with me in 5 days but I’m chasing ONCE AGAIN Atrocious customer service
