Seems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

@O2 Thanks, it was worth a try, but unfortunately I can't open the link because my connection speed is apparently too slow.

@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.

@O2 why is your reception in the #PathaanCollection WestMidlands so bad #Willenhall #Walsall showing 4G internet buffering considering moving on to another network.

@villa4ever29 @Virgin @O2 Awful mobile coverage for the last 12 months. Shame I’m tied in to my contract for another 6 months. It’s been particularly bad the last couple of weeks. No 4G available and switching between 3G & EDGE regularly. Appalling

@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.

@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

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

@walder_louise @O2 Good luck - they don’t seem to know anything in either payments or customer ‘service’ - absolute disgrace of a company, I’m leaving after 22 years!

@O2 If o2 try to make me pay for airtime beyond the 29yj given the way I've been treated over the past 24months... Incorrectly fully disconnected for multiple months... Original higher contract downgraded to the 500 one and never allowed me to return it to normal. I will take it...

@o2 terrible customer service! I’ve been pushed around to different departments on two different times of calling and then cut off! In fact I was cut off 4 times on Friday! Upgraded phone was faulty, now left with a phone that doesn’t work

@O2 Day 69 of 365 on trying to get O2 to fix their phone customer service. 1) If you ring and ask for an e-sim for an Apple Watch then good luck with that. Staff seem very untrained. 2) Calls disconnect too much when speaking on 202. 3) The whole IVR system feels dated.

@O2 I l think I’ve made a mistake,leaving Vodaphone, and going to O2,every second call Iam getting call fail,and the reception is useless,I’ve asked them to change my phone from i phone 13 to I phone 13 pro, because I heard the signal is better but they’ve told me to get lost.

@O2 just spoke w/a man saying they were from O2, calling to help lower my bill. They ID themselves as Harry & things went downhill from there. Asked me where I’m from (none ya), said my voice was so cute, & asked my age as well (not relevant). If this is SOP at O2, I’m out asap.
