    Loosing the will to live with @O2 and the appalling lack of customer service!! Nearly 4 weeks and still no refund received!!

  • SnapperSandwell
    SandwellSnapper (@SnapperSandwell) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 Why when I click on the priority app for tickets, does it then not allow me to buy priority tickets on Ticketmaster? Why is it not working, it used to.

  • 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.

  • 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..

  • 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

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

    @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

    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 🤢

  • ChrisSammons_
    Chris Sammons (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Thats the answer I expected to be honest, to a customer of 18 years 👍🏼

  • RefinedSavage
    Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England

    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.

    Thanks @o2 @my_prsnt for my o2 blue monday treat #bluemondays #priority

  • notdodgy
    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.

  • 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

  • ChrisSammons_

    @paulwrightyboy @O2 @TelefonicaUK @MarkEvansO2 I have full signal...and 4G

    @O2 Answer the phone. Is your phone not working ? Is it a desk phone or mobile you using ?

  • shaikhycwu
    Sajid Shaikh (@shaikhycwu) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Why are customers so unreliable in what they tell to resolve your issue. That was cause by o2 customer services yet customer suffer and pay the bill

  • Joynayyar

    @O2 outgoing and incoming call issues all over westmidlands.

  • _tombradshaw
    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!

  • MikeKlymko

    @O2 You’re having a laugh !! Can’t get a decent signal at home - let alone elsewhere.

  • 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!?

  • berniebaps101

    @O2 I have £45 left to pay on my device, if I pay that can I then cancel the contract as I don't use the sim?

  • boulton65
    Anne Louise Boulton (@boulton65) reported

    @O2 Case CIT-A387037 I am requesting this is escalated to a formal complaint and managerial review. While roaming in the EU I experienced a complete loss of mobile data service. There was a failure of service and of support handling resulting in significant inconvenience and concern.

  • JRY1998__
    Jen (@JRY1998__) reported

    @Calh48 @mhewson_MCH @O2 Omg same. Once I head towards my local town centre there’s no signal

  • lifeiz2short4lv
    romy (@lifeiz2short4lv) reported

    @O2 I’m disappointed with your service. I paid for my order and ported my number to O2, but I’ve had no proper support at all.I’ve called customer service multiple times and even messaged here on X still no response. This iscompletely unacceptable #O2 #CustomerService #Complaint

  • fgz176
    Freddiefrazer (@fgz176) reported

    @O2 my account was locked for unknown reasons 2 months ago. 6 calls and 6 promises to sort later it is still locked. You have the worst customer services of any company I’ve dealt with

  • joewalshrocks
    Jo ❯❯❯❯ (@joewalshrocks) reported

    @huckleberrydan @mhewson_MCH @O2 So do I! I'll be leaving O2 once my contract is up. Too expensive and my phone is useless most of the time because of the lack of signal.

  • Melaniebrowder1
    Melanie browder (@Melaniebrowder1) reported

    @andrejpwalker @O2 It’s a nightmare, they haven’t updated my address from 20 years ago, even though I have moved and informed 4 times to different address’s. The virgin hook up is a joke.. app and website both terrible

  • angry_corner
    Mr Angry (@angry_corner) reported

    @O2 Always seems to be an issue accessing my account, using either of your apps..... you really just need to simplify this!!! I remember when customer perception was a huge focus at O2, but they don't seem to care any more!!!

  • gawa_tyrone
    Tyronegirl (@gawa_tyrone) reported

    @O2 please fix the payment issue !!! Keep getting ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS on app and website!!!

  • LesPiggypics
    Les Pigg (@LesPiggypics) reported

    @O2 Just got an email £1 for a Greggs Chicken roll. They are disgusting and Gregg 30 years ago were better than the current food they serve. Plus the network in some area of NE9 are very poor week signals and dose not work underground on the Tyne & Wear Metro system.

  • Calh48
    Cal (@Calh48) reported

    @Lorna__xx @O2 Honest to goodness they are shocking. I was out today and my phone said I had two 5G bars. Couldn’t send a WhatsApp, search the internet, make a call or seem a Snapchat. Alls they say is service is fine. Dreadful if I’m home without WiFi I can’t do anything!
