  • crazysamsam Samantha Thompson (@crazysamsam) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Your customer service has been awful at this difficult time @O2. We had to call your bereavement department so many times to sort out the bill you said you’d wave, and this has caused us much stress and anxiety. To then contact us again on FATHER’S DAY is extremely cruel.

  • LittleMissCosta Tina-Louise Boyce (@LittleMissCosta) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 I've just tried this, they've said they've sent me a text with a code but I don't have any service to receive the text. So now I'm stuck..

  • DaveBennett79 Dave Bennett (@DaveBennett79) reported from Redditch, England

    @O2 I have been cut off 5 times now whilst trying to chase a refund. Guess what, not called back once by your fantastic service team!

  • macwool paul woolley (@macwool) reported from Brownhills, England

    @O2 I’m unable to remember my security question answer in order to change my password to view my a/c the system won’t accent any answers to other questions & customer care is unobtainable. It’s rubbish & unhelpful. I feel very cross!!!😡

  • SophieMDrake Sophie Drake (@SophieMDrake) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 It’s having to be escalated due to a back office technical fault, issue on My O2 and the account behind the scenes, so I’m without data when out of the house for up to 10 days. Not ideal really!

  • ASWM1990 ... (@ASWM1990) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @tenilletownes @O2 @C2Cfestival too bad it’s not free to fly to the UK

  • septemberboy73 September Boy (@septemberboy73) reported

    @O2 .and I've just been told I can't even cancel my order as - wait for this - no tracking number for the order has been created! Surely the order number is enough?! This is all shockingly bad service.

  • michaelmcguk Michael McGarrity (@michaelmcguk) reported

    @O2 Hi. My Dad is having issues with his phone network. He's in the Elvanfoot/Durisdeer area.

  • Mayurs_ Mayur Shikotra (@Mayurs_) reported

    .@virginmedia 3) someone from @O2 who had no idea why i had been transferred to him 4) He transferred me back to virgin to someone who couldn't deal with my issue 5) she put me through to Virgin mobile who had nothing to do with my issue 6) she then put me through to someone...

  • Bappi37800092 Bappi (@Bappi37800092) reported

    @O2 if they stop the priority offer of a free Caffè Nero drink every week I am leaving for a cheaper operator & take my family and friends away. The new Nero food deals are crap. Priority has been mismanaged from the start allowing low paying pay as you go customers premium offer

  • NikkiH_1984 Nikki (@NikkiH_1984) reported

    Absolutely disgusted @O2 texted them for leaving costs to cancel my husbands contact. £0. Got a pac code and transfered a couple of days later. Now they want £20? Oh and £6 for a late payment? The contract was only £16 and a tenner of that was disney plus (which we cancelled!)

  • NathFerguson Nath (@NathFerguson) reported

    @IIIdisposed @ap__76 @O2 Exactly they choose the higher one to use to increase your bill so they get more money they know there’s a rise of living issue and they still increase their prices and the service they offer is crap

  • nightboy3440 Nick Mills (@nightboy3440) reported

    @O2 Really bad experience trying to upgrade paid upfront fee, delivery charge to find out I had to pick the parcel up from a post office! DPD and o2 don’t seem concerned about keeping a long-standing customer of 16 years #SHOCKING

  • yorkonafork York on a Fork (@yorkonafork) reported

    @O2 Why. You’ll just check for faults and scheduled maintenance then tell me it’s a capacity issue, like every o2 customer in york knows already

  • Iluvtrains01 Becca (@Iluvtrains01) reported

    @O2 is there issue with Signal I seemed to have no signal suck on 3G all the time I’ve checked my settings and I should be on 5G
