  • 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

  • UKHarvick_Fan Jackie (@UKHarvick_Fan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 is there a issue with a website ? I’ve paid for a phone twice now online and it still says unpaid …. And you’ve got my money !! Plus the phone is needed to employer to call me !!

  • 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!?

  • gracielou_xx 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 🤢

  • 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

  • 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

  • sabphotos69 SAB Photography (@sabphotos69) reported from Woodside, England

    @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.

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

    @O2 Hi, please could you help me with a online store order?

  • PongoVilla PongoVilla (@PongoVilla) reported from Birmingham, England

    Why has #o2 gone crap since they merged with #Virgin time to move @o2

  • sabphotos69 SAB Photography (@sabphotos69) reported from Dudley, England

    @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.

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

    @O2 Called to complain about poor network coverage where I live and work. Battery died whilst waiting on hold forever.

  • ChrisJSharratt_ ChrisJSharratt_ (@ChrisJSharratt_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I ordered a phone on the train today and only found out you need ID after. I have a copy on my phone, you can check with my work and I will be getting rid of this phone in an hour!!!!!! What ******** am I meant to do?!!!!!

  • 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

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

    @O2 yet again unable to charge my car because the signal from isn’t good enough.

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

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

  • 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

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

    @O2 Priority down!!!!!

  • sukirandhawa4x4 Suki Randhawa (@sukirandhawa4x4) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @O2 why is your reception in the #WestMidlands so bad #Willenhall #Walsall showing 4G internet buffering all the time, considering moving on to another network after 20 plus years with you.

  • sukirandhawa4x4 Suki Randhawa (@sukirandhawa4x4) reported from Walsall Wood, England

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

  • olimar99 Alistair Rattray (@olimar99) reported

    @ddphotograph @O2 I was with them for years and couldn't work out why I couldn't get signal whilst others could, even on same network. Switched to EE and now it's the other way around.

  • ddphotograph Dominic DEAN 📸 (@ddphotograph) reported

    So i have been with @O2 for over 30 years and the signal now is worse than ever. Recommendations please for mobile provider?

  • liammjwhite Liam White (@liammjwhite) reported

    @O2 you sent me an email saying i 'd get a free welcome gift (worth up to £89.99) if i downloaded the priority app. I've done so and am not getting anything relating to a free goft. Can you help advise what I need to do to claim my gift please 🙏

  • V_D_Onofrio Vincenzo D'Onofrio (@V_D_Onofrio) reported

    @O2 I have a business account. No voice or data service for 2 hours. Over the past month, your service has been increasingly unreliable. Is there any compensation for this? Can I terminate the contract early without penalties? #O2down

  • Clairejadex Claire Marsh (@Clairejadex) reported

    @O2 hi currently abroad and suddenly have no service ??

  • RachT234 RachT234 (@RachT234) reported

    I’ve since moved to @O2, who responded helpfully, respectfully, and actually listened — even when I had no service and had to rely on a family member’s phone (without Relay UK, and with encouragement). This outage was caused by Three failing to provide porting info, leaving me without service for around 10 hours. In contrast, Three left me feeling ignored.

  • dickieGT dickieGT 🐒🏳️‍🌈 (@dickieGT) reported

    Anyone tried calling @O2 recently? THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. #Wankers

  • AWKrey Andy (@AWKrey) reported

    @O2 what the hell is going on? Full 4G signal and can barely refresh my Twitter let alone watch the F1 qualifying.

  • Unofficial_Phil Phil (@Unofficial_Phil) reported

    @O2 ran out of data - didn’t receive a warning, couldn’t check my allowance. Had to spend £5 to connect to EE WiFi just to see my account. Awful service

  • therealsmorgan smo (@therealsmorgan) reported

    What is going on with O2????? No signal bars for days… No calls in or out! @O2
