    @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!

    I’ve just been in to the @O2 store to get a new sim, fantastic service in store, however, I was shocked to find my contract has gone up £6 since October? How does that work??

    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

  • 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.

    @O2 my son has changed network provider from o2 to ee. Waiting 5 days now for tel no to be transferred. Unable to get thru and no response to messages. Its crucial he has a working phone especially at this time. Shameful customer service.....

    @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

    @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

    Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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.

    @O2 ME19 and ME20 areas are shocking their seems to be no point being with o2 if you can’t make and receive calls or get online it’s 2026 ffs you report it and it’s the same excuse we aware of a problem and we are trying to fix it but it never seems to happen !!!!!

  • LucieRimmer
    Lucie Rimmer (@LucieRimmer) reported

    @O2 please can you sort out the signal on the @MiddlebrookRLP Retail part. It’s always been bad. You’re the only network that has a shop on there now and it’s ironic you can’t use your O2 phone when shopping on there. So frustrating 🙄 Even Peter Kay joked about it in his show!

  • anthonychilvers
    anthony chilvers (@anthonychilvers) reported

    @O2 why is it taking over a month to sort out a issue with one of your masts you just keep sending out notifications saying update in seven days

  • Mcurley40Curley
    Michael Curley (@Mcurley40Curley) reported

    @KinkygroovyHez @EE @O2 are a nightmare as well nine weeks to cancel a sim only contact!!

  • Veleta2000

    @O2 My roaming uk-spain is not working.

  • KopiteinPoland
    KopiteinPoland (@KopiteinPoland) reported

    Before @O2 say call customer service, why do I want to waste my time stuck in your queues, waiting to speak to someone about something I should be able to check online and pay if your website worked properly. #timeismoney

  • Andy_charman
    Andy charman (@Andy_charman) reported

    @O2 Yes and new SIM card network reset phone reset tickets open by o2 to raise issue for last 3 months then tickets being closed when issue not fixed

  • mclarnonc
    Christopher McLarnon (@mclarnonc) reported

    So it will take @O2 up to 28 days to answer my complaint, all the while I am without a working phone. Just not remotely good enough.

  • MrJonnyDuncan
    Jonny duncan (@MrJonnyDuncan) reported

    @O2 how do you allow all these touts and scammers to buy all the tickets to your shows at the o2 and let them re sell them for 5 times the value when there's children lose out. What a **** show

  • DavidButler34
    𝐃𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐝 𝐁𝐮𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐫 🇺🇦 (@DavidButler34) reported

    @wheat_daddy @O2 Government should start imposing meaty fines on all network providers not providing reasonable rural coverage! Plenty of masts around here but they’re basically all dialed down to save on energy costs!
