    @O2 Getting very close to the point of cancelling my order. The port has failed and I have no service. Cannot get through to your support as there are no agents available. No reply to FB message since 9 am. The clock is ticking...

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

    @O2 @jimswanstonlive That crap answer does not improve your **** network . How about Birmingham B12 again utter Shite signal ! Guess what I know the local mast is down but it has been ever since I have been with you !

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 I assume free coffee is cheaper than investing in network capacity.

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

    @O2 That looks like an Apple device. #Alexa won’t help you there. #Siri might.

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 working like clockwork? It goes faulty every week. "O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

  • charlll18x Charlotte (@charlll18x) reported from Dudley, England

    Dunno what’s worse your “priority” or signal @O2

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 can you stop advising people to "reset network settings" when your network has problems. This didn't fix the problem with your network and unfortunately wipes out all WiFi and Bluetooth settings, which then need manually setting up again. Not good advice at all.

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 just changing to O2 as I opted for deal with Virgin. Disappointed with how poor your coverage is locally in the B90 area. Where I had over 200mbits 5G with three, I am now lucky to get 20mbits with O2. Do you have plans to improve your network? Have I made a mistake?

  • KittykatClaire Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

  • MuslimShamir Follow Poor Shamir Claimant Ali Entrapment (@MuslimShamir) reported from Birmingham, England

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

  • Cheadle Hooty McOwlface (@Cheadle) reported from Birmingham, England

    @whatphilsaid @O2 It’s horrendous. Who would have thought the network could actually get worse as technology improves

  • KittykatClaire Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    That, @O2 had better coverage now I'm left with all this extra stress when I'm out because my mobile doesn't work when using @O2 network.... Its not my mobile either. I have a Samsung s20.....

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

    @gazswain @O2 O2 🤝 Virgin - dog **** mobile networks

  • 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.

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @o2. Like clockwork every week O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Sorry, a phone mast close to you isn't working as well as we would expect Our engineers are carrying out some checks to investigate issues in this area...

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 After spending 6 hours trying to get hold of customer services, I ended up driving (and paying for parking) to go to one of your shops to get a sim swap. This apparently the only to get service working. Not the best of starts.

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 why does the local B90 4AJ mast go faulty EVERY week. 6 weeks in a row now, we get no service until it is repaired. You need better repair engineers as their repairs do not even last a week!!!

  • Adventure_Rach 🎢👠 Adventure Rachel 🎢👠 (She/Her) (@Adventure_Rach) reported from Perton, England

    @O2 sorry correct tag now!! 13 years+ with three and no real discount for loyalty and pushy chat op trying to get me to have a S22! Nah not a hope! #TeamPixel ftw! I hope @O2 will treat me well

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 9 hours after you reported it fixed (again). O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

  • justanotherdawn Dawn (@justanotherdawn) reported

    @PloybCG @O2 Ugh. Hope you get them in your basket soon. Also, touts can **** off. I see them circling, and I'm not even buying.

  • lolla2_uk itsme (@lolla2_uk) reported

    @O2 What a **** thing to say when your app and website are still not working, yet touts have got tickets on @viagogo for over £1k for a ticket that costs £35

  • _____natalie Natalie R Cardwell (@_____natalie) reported

    @O2 I’ve never even got on the site! Neither has my partner

  • sizorhappi1 Michelle Backhouse 💝 (@sizorhappi1) reported

    @ArnieF1 @O2 @TheO2 Can’t even log on to the app…. I’ve never been logged out in 15 years

  • theleylands leylo (@theleylands) reported

    @O2 You are a disgrace. No one is able to get on to your crappy app or website because you don’t invest anything in giving your customers a decent experience. You are without doubt the worst UK network and I’ve been on all of them

  • gas442 Dean Stockham (@gas442) reported

    @O2 Why don’t you try and login to your own servers and let us know how you get on 🤔 easier to get a ticket to Amarillo than with you 🤡

  • RosieJa36631076 Rosie James (@RosieJa36631076) reported

    @O2 @O2PriorityUK what is the point in being an o2 priority Customer if your site is shite and you can’t even get priority tickets?! Talk me through it?! #peterkaytickets

  • AdrianBishop Adrian Bishop (@AdrianBishop) reported

    @O2 Telling people to keep hitting the refresh button is not a solution. Building an application and website that can handle the demand is what you need to do #O2Priority #fail #O2NoPriority

  • perfectlysj Craig (@perfectlysj) reported

    @Christhefish86 @O2 O2 won't do a damn thing about that. They have made the money they wanted from the ticket that's all they care about. Only way to stop the touts is to not buy from them. We fans will miss out but they will be thousands out of pocket

  • MCMLXXXVII87 Lee (@MCMLXXXVII87) reported

    @O2 How is that even true? Everyone is receiving a bad gateway message and then when you finally get into the login page it takes ages for the code to be sent then the login page times out! Absolute shambles
