  • 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.

  • Joynayyar Joy nayyar (@Joynayyar) reported from Coleshill, England

    @O2 outgoing and incoming call issues all over westmidlands.

  • GedNeilAlex #boredinafactoryupddated (@GedNeilAlex) reported from Walsall Wood, England

  • ChrisSammons_ Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I think my mom had the same text the other day. So had to help her by marking as spam and blocking it.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • mdcalver Matthew Calver (@mdcalver) reported

    @o2 reported fraud on my account yesterday, but still no sign of the fraud team contacting me. No direct number! Would never happen if reported to a bank!

  • verbatimpara Jamie Green (@verbatimpara) reported

    @O2 help me out. Can't connect to your network on a new sim card. Been on and off for the phone and on hold. One of your agents put the phone down on me also.

  • AvantiWestCoast Avanti West Coast (@AvantiWestCoast) reported

    @stavros_mike @O2 Hello Stav. Sorry to hear you are experiencing some issues getting online this eve! What service are you on please and have you spoke with any staff about this onboard? - Laura

  • choccieclare Emma (@choccieclare) reported

    @RachelOrr @O2 I am sim only. I am not fussed about handsets. I just need to be able to get phone calls and voice mails ! #o2 will never know how much stress they caused as the calls to try and get my voicemail failed

  • JStanBacs Superman (@JStanBacs) reported

    @O2 have now had a manager hang up on me because I’ve proven advisors have lied and hung up on me when I’ve asked questions or expressed I’m disgusted with their service. Does @MarkEvansO2 know his company is a disgrace with 0 compassion for customers with critically ill parents?

  • mussarat0 m (@mussarat0) reported

    @VodafoneUK worse thing I ever did was join Voda network I should have never let @o2 was with them for years and been with you guys since January and I wanna pull my hair out now. Always having problems with 3G well I want out now

    Don’t you just love @O2 customer service, you wait on hold for 20 mins or more then they cut you off 🤬🤬🤬

  • bailey72 Brian Bailey (@bailey72) reported

    Another afternoon of lost money due to @O2 poor / non existent data signal in the TQ12 area. Been weeks like this! 😡

  • ChrisProbert11 Chris Probert (@ChrisProbert11) reported

    @O2 Appalling customer service. Hours to get through, can’t help, departments closed, call back, go to store, try sim in another phone. Can’t return - #customerexperience shocking.

  • Krissyoung14 Kriss Young (@Krissyoung14) reported

    @O2 is bar far the worst company I have ever tried to resolve an issue with. Complaints team said they’d phone back but haven’t. Stay away!
