    @danboq @VodafoneUK At least @O2 only fob me off once every two weeks 🤪 And they don’t even give a reason, just knock the date back every time 🤣 As long as I have signal in time so I can send my Xmas texts I’ll be a happy chap

    @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.

    Yo why is @O2 4G network coverage so garbish lately? Sort your **** out man, I don't pay for a 1 bar signal wherever I go!

    @O2 Very poor, new link provided by @DriiftLive doesn’t support casting to another device there is no excuse for this awful provision.

  • ASWM1990

    @O2 Hi! Why is the internet in my town so **** for? Its been like this for over 3 weeks now. It takes atleast 5 minutes to get a signal when i switch my mobile internet on!

  • John10649040
    John (@John10649040) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 when are you going to fix the masts around Birmingham ( B11 ) as I’m sick of not bloody signal / data . £25 I think I’m do a refund !

  • EvanD
    Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 @virginmedia Further to this, he has now told me that as I get a £15/month discount for my 1st 6 months with O2, I need to cancel that and pay full price in order to get the extra #Volt speed boost with VM

  • MrTegSingh
    Teg Singh (@MrTegSingh) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @O2 customer services shocking after spending nearly 3 hours on the phone to them I had to go to the wolves store and sort it out myself. Massive thank you too Jeeves who works at o2 wolves for finding me a phone reserving it at merry hill I know have my new phone

  • MikeKlymko
    Mike Klymko (@MikeKlymko) reported from Dudley, England

    @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

  • emmajsaunders
    emma saunders (@emmajsaunders) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 had a called yesterday about a upgrade and the person was going to call me back at 3.00 yesterday I am still waiting....this morning I have called been on hold for 30 minutes to be cut off what a joke bad customer service...I have been a customer with you for 18 years

  • matthew_74
    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.

    @rachaelxspragg @O2 My update was via Email - BECAUSE I HAVEN’T SIGNAL SINCE MARCH 3RD 😂

    Stevie Brown (@SASBroons) reported

    @sky @O2 what are you planning to do to compensate customers who have suffered a drop in service due to "upgrades" no service to many in EH26 Penicuik. The timescale getting longer 😤

  • Mr__J_J
    Mr J (@Mr__J_J) reported

    @KerZE87 @O2 Yep, and also had the cheek to inform me that I can pay extra for O2 satellite for better signal. Now been told expect mast to be fixed in 6 months. Was told that over 1 year ago.Once out of contract I will be looking elsewhere, I dont like subsidised networks as can be throttled

  • AROE77
    Anton Roe (@AROE77) reported

    @O2 Why else would my phone be saying 5G next to the signal strength indicator!

  • Lord_Viridis
    Viridis (@Lord_Viridis) reported

    @waynetuckwell @O2 Luckily, they send me a text just before they cut off all my 7 lines threatening legal action Inc debt recovery, I use the link in the email to pay all in one go. It's literally the only way I can pay my bills unless I spend 2hrs on the phone. It's ******* shockingly bad @Ofcom

  • bigtev25
    Terry Mcconnell (@bigtev25) reported

    @O2 why is it impossible to sign in to the my O2 app now. And it keeps bouncing to virgin

  • RIngle100
    Richard ingle (@RIngle100) reported

    Is anyone else having problems with an @O2 rolling plan? It has been going on for months and they seem incapable of fixing it

  • JoeHop04
    Joe Hopkins (@JoeHop04) reported

    @O2 I switched to O2 9 days ago and have had no phone line soon after. You ported my number to a handset that was never delivered (now stuck at a depot) and locked my account for suspected fraud. I can’t receive 2FA codes, so I’m locked out of other accounts.

  • KerZE87
    emze (@KerZE87) reported

    @Mr__J_J @O2 That’s disgusting!!! I’d definitely look elsewhere that’s appalling customer service. They’ve been “fixing” a mast near me for weeks, keep giving completion dates and it’s never fixed and then they send out new alerts with new completion dates and again never fixed. I’m not asking for a complete refund just money off my bills bc why tf am I paying £73 a month for no service @O2

  • CraigHunter74
    Craig Hunter (@CraigHunter74) reported

    @O2 @JakeMooreUK I have the same issue ever since 5G came out, my Spotify never dropped out when driving but it’s like an old car radio now. Will definitely be thinking about another network soon
