    @O2 B11HQ B4 B42 B44 They are my main postcodes, they used to be fantastic, for about 3 months now signal has drilled into the ground.

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    Remember when @ThreeUK public shamed @O2 for being down. Pot Kettle..

  • TeeKhan84 Tariq Khan (@TeeKhan84) reported from Birmingham, England

    Absolutely awful customer service from Awais at @O2 call centre. Takes 5 days to get an unlock code so that I can use my phone on another network and my o2 line finishes tomorrow! @Ofcom @WhichUK manager was in a 'meeting' and will get back to me by 9pm tonight. #stayawayfromo2

  • MrRichAnderson Richard Anderson (@MrRichAnderson) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @O2 Terrible customer service, AGAIN. Promised a call on Monday morning. Came whilst I was out of reception (No surprise there!) Voicemail left saying you would try again. Nothing all week. Another reason not to actually upgrade and to leave O2.

  • ppmbecky ✨Becky Higgins✨ (@ppmbecky) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @O2 great service from Sarah and Matt in the Walsall store this morning..... #customerservice #asset toteam #safariissuesorted #qustodiotheproblem

  • Jeanybabesb j7b7 (@Jeanybabesb) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Have been with @ThreeUK since 2005...15 years and the service has just got worse...time to switch! What you got @EE @virginmedia @O2

  • ReissOmari Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @o2 signal in birmingham, on 4g but nothing working, been like this was at least a week now, struggling to see why im playing £60 a month to use wi-fi only.

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    I can’t call you because @ThreeUKSupport are providing a crap service and have been for 3 weeks because of a bit of rain! Time to have a chat with @virginmedia @O2 @VodafoneUK I think, neither #Sky not #Three value customers. @Three_Is_Broken

  • _Rachele_ Rachele 🍷 (@_Rachele_) reported from Redditch, England

    @O2 It was bad all morning in Birmingham. Currently at home in Redditch and it's better but a tad slow. It's the 4G 👍

  • Wolvostu Stu Parry (@Wolvostu) reported from Dudley, England

    Is 02 down in the DY6 area @O2

  • gav_wallace1 Gavin Wallace (@gav_wallace1) reported from Wednesfield, England

    2/2 @O2 I’m currently sat at Wolverhampton station and I have 1 bar or 4G in what is a major UK city. Absolutely nonsense that these problems continue to happen. I thought it was bad enough not getting full 4G in my house in Kilmarnock but this is just amateur hour at its finiest

  • Bigglesdaf Andrew (@Bigglesdaf) reported from Wombourne, England

    @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @O2 Try it they seem to be willing to cancel for those who escalate to the ombudsman service

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    Remember when @three public shamed @o2 for being down. Pot Kettle..

  • msetchell Matt (@msetchell) reported from Redditch, England

    Thanks to Paul @SkyUK who responded to my tweet, replied and then called me, I’ve just got 2 x 10GB sim only deals for a total of £26pm - saving me £15pm verses @o2 and giving James 10x data. And we can roll it over. @o2 just replied saying they couldn’t help!

  • Paul1366 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.

  • Georgekafetzis George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 your customer service has gone extremely S**T

  • iamRicardoW RICARDO WILLIAMS (@iamRicardoW) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BigJMusic @O2 @ThreeUK Did that... never looked back! Do it

  • Ieeshhhk ieesh (@Ieeshhhk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 what’s with the dodgey service today 🙄

  • 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.

  • JakeBox7 Jake Box (@JakeBox7) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Swear no matter what town/city I go I get no ******* signal on 02 @O2

  • mancunianbrief Ammer (@mancunianbrief) reported

    @O2 can you explain why I’ve just waited one hour and 45 minutes on your line and still nobody has answered. Pathetic customer service.

  • pickled_tinker Ian Grody (@pickled_tinker) reported

    @O2 Yea Twitter isn't my first place to get customer support. I spoke with someone just now, but had to abuse your "Emergency or Lost/Stolen" option to even get through to someone. Hopefully resolved. Thanks.

  • CharleeWharlee ♡ Charlee ♡ (@CharleeWharlee) reported

    I keep not receiving text sounds when my iPhone 12 Pro is locked but it’s not on do not disturb or anything, can anyone help? @Apple @O2

  • HBells123 Helen Phair (@HBells123) reported

    @O2 help, some of my apps crash as soon as I open them. Have deleted and reinstalled and restarted phone but still happening!

  • oakhousebusserv Oakhouse Bus. Serv. (@oakhousebusserv) reported

    @O2 The screen goes black and then back to the home screen. I've turned it off/on a few times to try and sort the problem but no luck

  • elainehopkins3 elaine hopkins (@elainehopkins3) reported

    @O2 It was an issue with a few apps, I had to uninstall android Web browser as it was the update for that which stopped them working, seems it was a worldwide issue not just uk

  • BrazenDwarf Ray (@BrazenDwarf) reported

    @O2 I don't go in for the lovey dovey Twitter posts from marketing people. What matters is customer service and a flawles experience and if I don't get either, I'm off. I've only picked up your SIM because it was the best of a bad lot.

  • Jenba590 Jenny Jones (@Jenba590) reported

    @O2 Having a stressful couple of days when ordering a new phone. You have taken the up front fee, received credit agreements by email but no order no. or confirmation & CS keep fobbing me off. Feel like been charged for a phone I am never going to receive

  • IamClaireDavis 💋 C L A I R E 💋 (@IamClaireDavis) reported

    Apps emails online banking all crashing this morning as is try to open them on my Samsung S20 ultra ? Turned phone on and off, help me please anyone? @SamsungUK @O2 #Samsung #o2 #phoneproblems

  • xoxkerry90xox Kerry (@xoxkerry90xox) reported

    @O2 my apps keep closing or not opening. Can I ask if there are any issues at the moment? I am aware of many other friends having the same issues right now. Thanks
