    @O2 is there a issue with the service this afternoon cuz I can't add a bolt on.

  • GriffPlays Griff™ in NYC 🗽 (@GriffPlays) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I think I made 2 or 3 phone calls all week and no, I had to rely on wifi because the data connection was so poor! 💸

  • TeeKhan84 Tariq Khan (@TeeKhan84) reported from Birmingham, England

    Absolutely awful customer service from Awais at @O2 call centre. Takes 5 days to get an unlock code so that I can use my phone on another network and my o2 line finishes tomorrow! @Ofcom @WhichUK manager was in a 'meeting' and will get back to me by 9pm tonight. #stayawayfromo2

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    I can’t call you because @ThreeUKSupport are providing a crap service and have been for 3 weeks because of a bit of rain! Time to have a chat with @virginmedia @O2 @VodafoneUK I think, neither #Sky not #Three value customers. @Three_Is_Broken

  • harryharrad HH (@harryharrad) reported from Birmingham, England

    @SkyUK why is #skymobile signal so rubbish at weekends, you give free data and then the service levels drop! #poorservice won't be renewing with you next year! @O2 that's goes for you too! #rubbish!

  • MrRichAnderson Richard Anderson (@MrRichAnderson) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @O2 Terrible customer service, AGAIN. Promised a call on Monday morning. Came whilst I was out of reception (No surprise there!) Voicemail left saying you would try again. Nothing all week. Another reason not to actually upgrade and to leave O2.

  • Massontweet Iain L Masson - Musician (@Massontweet) reported from Birmingham, England

    @natashas_notes @O2 @cafenero @O2Priority It’s not possible in Birmingham to get one after 3pm on Tue or Wed any more. Until last month we always got one every Wednesday at tea time if we wanted (sold out Tuesdays) but now they sell out on both days by 3pm. There’s no reason to be with @O2 now - no phone signal /coffee.

  • BorisJWorrall Boris Worrall (@BorisJWorrall) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Great customer service @O2 sorting refund on defunct mobile contract, quick, friendly and no hassle 👍✅

  • msetchell Matt (@msetchell) reported from Redditch, England

    Thanks to Paul @SkyUK who responded to my tweet, replied and then called me, I’ve just got 2 x 10GB sim only deals for a total of £26pm - saving me £15pm verses @o2 and giving James 10x data. And we can roll it over. @o2 just replied saying they couldn’t help!

  • Georgekafetzis George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Birmingham, England

    The guys at @O2 store lower #bullring are rude. We have as a family 5 contracts and there is a way to speak to customers. Sales adviser even manger thought it was ok. Very rude here. Will go top floor from now on.

  • GriffPlays Griff™ in NYC 🗽 (@GriffPlays) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 No I'm home now. I tried that but after several attempts of waiting 10 minutes to find a new network manually, I gave up.

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

    @O2 Not been as bad today. Also had software update. May pop into a O2 shop at the weekend.

  • iamRicardoW RICARDO WILLIAMS (@iamRicardoW) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BigJMusic @O2 @ThreeUK Did that... never looked back! Do it

  • A_J_92 Ash❗️ (@A_J_92) reported from Birmingham, England

    @jameseonline @O2 There maybe plenty of good freebies and offers with priority. Just that o2 signal is shocking where I live anyway and this is what I can a priority when choosing mobile network. Why have a mobile that you can't use!

  • ppmbecky ✨Becky Higgins✨ (@ppmbecky) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @O2 great service from Sarah and Matt in the Walsall store this morning..... #customerservice #asset toteam #safariissuesorted #qustodiotheproblem

  • MarkCook3rgj Mark cook (@MarkCook3rgj) reported from Tamworth District, England

    Absolutely poor service in Skegness this weekend @O2

  • gav_wallace1 Gavin Wallace (@gav_wallace1) reported from Wednesfield, England

    2/2 @O2 I’m currently sat at Wolverhampton station and I have 1 bar or 4G in what is a major UK city. Absolutely nonsense that these problems continue to happen. I thought it was bad enough not getting full 4G in my house in Kilmarnock but this is just amateur hour at its finiest

  • Y2JONAKERFELDT Jonathan Deavs (@Y2JONAKERFELDT) reported from Redditch, England

    @O2 Hi. I’m thinking of upgrading this month to an iPhone XR 128 GB, or an iPhone X 256 GB. I’ve been a customer for over 10 years. Could you let me know the very best price based on 1 GB or 3 GB data over 36 months. Happy to DM any additional info.

  • A_J_92 Ash❗️ (@A_J_92) reported from Birmingham, England

    The only reason I would be an @O2 customer

  • StuartCollett Stuart Collett (@StuartCollett) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    So far today: @NOWTV failed our change from @bt_uk yesterday so no broadband. @O2 signal is poor so phones are no use & our @FreeviewTV signal is terrible. So no internet, data, @NOWTV, or @FreeviewTV. Oh, and a child needs to revise online for exams on Monday. Fantastic.

  • therunningdad Alex B (@therunningdad) reported

    @O2 So I tried again today exactly at 2pm as the countdown ended. Once again already out of stock. I appreciate this is a supposedly a perk of being with o2. But it's actually making me more annoyed with o2 rather than building any customer loyalty.

  • walk_the_talk82 walk_the_talk82 (@walk_the_talk82) reported

    @O2 dear O2, is there a fault please? 4G reception in London seems very poor this week. Regards

  • FeralMother44 🫶🏼Sarah ‘Hope Is Everything’ Dalton🫶🏼 (@FeralMother44) reported

    @Jason__Watkins @O2 Goodness Jason so sorry to hear this. Glad that you weren’t hurt and sad that O2 are useless with the follow up customer service now you really need it! You must be shaken sending you hugs xx

  • EugenAvram5 Eugen Avram (@EugenAvram5) reported

    @O2 You should be worried about your customers and that signal .. West Drayton .. madness with the signal .. Heathrow as well … inside my house I need to keep my phone next to the window for signal …

  • Alokindisn Alok Kumar (@Alokindisn) reported

    @O2 i bought the device and airtime from O2 on 5th Jan. O2 is sending me separate bills for airtime and Device. While speaking to CC, they mentioned it cannot be single bill. My friends are on single bill but O2 is ready to lose the customer then do the changes.

  • roboemjay SmoothEmJay (@roboemjay) reported

    @Jason__Watkins @O2 Good to see O2 maintain the stellar quality of service they've been providing for years. This is what happens when a company balloons in size and forgets the people that got them there. Hope you sort it, Jason and that someone gets back to you as a result of this.

  • BayTreeBarry Cornwall DJ (@BayTreeBarry) reported

    @O2 Hi am unable to send DM, don't know why. It's been "sending" for a while. My problem is I'm Not able to make or receive calls for last 2days in PL266TL. Pls help. Texts seem to be ok. Have tried switching phone off and on.

  • therichgoodwin R I C H (@therichgoodwin) reported

    @Jason__Watkins @O2 Sorry to hear that. I have heard this before about @O2 customer service.

  • 1876szn JP 🏁 (@1876szn) reported

  • bluegaschris chris fear (@bluegaschris) reported
