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

@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

@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.

@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.

@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

@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.

Seems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

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

@O2 Hello, just a quick one. By default do most/all pay monthly sims have access to 5G or is this a paid upgrade? Is there any way I can check if its included with my service plan or through the My O2 app? Thanks!

@O2 I’ve got no issue doing ‘security’ publicly. My account will be of no use to anyone as I’m taking my custom elsewhere. Don’t want anything hidden behind DM’s. Just want my hard earned money back! You was quick enough to take it. 4 months is beyond a joke!

@O2 messaged a few weeks back, local mast has been faulty since the 31st of May, I just got another message to say it's still broken and you're hurrying to fix it. So for about 6 weeks I have had no phone service at home, it's getting beyond a joke, if my internet goes off and it

@O2 trying desperately to report some form of fraud, for a cancelled account. Going round in circles. Had everything from being cut off, transferred to 4 depts, transferred to recorded msg and everything in between. Your service is appalling and I'm no further along
