    @O2 Thanks, it was worth a try, but unfortunately I can't open the link because my connection speed is apparently too slow.

    Chris Sammons (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I appreciate theres obviously a serious issue, I’ve never known signal to be down for so long at one time. There needs to be a conversation at some stage regarding a substantial reimbursement on this months tariff, because to not have any signal whatsoever for this long is a pain

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

    @O2 Device is damaged. Your website and app are as clear as mud about repairs and replacements. I'm on hold waiting for an advisor to be available (20 minutes elapsed). Can you help me out?

    @O2 Very poor, new link provided by @DriiftLive doesn’t support casting to another device there is no excuse for this awful provision.

    @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.

  • RefinedSavage
    Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England

    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.

  • amy_bradwell

    Queenofhearts ♥️♥️♥️ (@nsibbs1) reported

    @O2 I honestly do not understand why you continuously bar my phone without giving a reason or even putting a note on your system as I can’t make or receive calls !! This is the 3rd time it’s happened and I have been with you since 2005 !!! Just absolutely diabolical service !!

  • TakeThatClouds
    Take That, Clouds (@TakeThatClouds) reported

    How daft is @O2 customer services? "I need a new eSIM for my replacement phone" "OK, to verify your identity we need to text a code to the phone number linked to your account." "But that's the phone that isn't working. That's why I need a SIM." "Sorry sir, I cannot help you."

    @O2 Nah.. it’s ok.. I’ve had enough! Today I switched to @EE after being your customer for around 20 years! Your customers deserve MUCH MUCH better and it’s not just the signal! It’s just about everything! While in the store two more people switched over as well.. I’d say you guys are in big trouble!

  • NikiLemon1

    @O2 our ddr didn’t go out at the beginning of the month. You have sent a letter and email to the business but the named person doesn’t work for us anymore and you won’t talk to any of us.. need help

  • TakeThatClouds
    Take That, Clouds (@TakeThatClouds) reported

    @O2 Apparently to transfer your eSIM from a phone that doesn't work to a new phone you can also get your new phone and place it next to the phone that doesn't work. But make sure the phone that doesn't work is switched on and Bluetooth is on.
