  • 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

  • ReissOmari Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 B11HQ B4 B42 B44 They are my main postcodes, they used to be fantastic, for about 3 months now signal has drilled into the ground.

  • PhilTonks2 Phil Tonks (@PhilTonks2) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 Just runs very slow, if at all. Advised in the past to change settings in phone to use 3G but it's hardly practical to keep doing this. 4G+ in the City Centre just seems overloaded much of the time. Other half on Vodafone no issues at all. Very frustrating.

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    Remember when @three public shamed @o2 for being down. Pot Kettle..

  • Jeanybabesb j7b7 (@Jeanybabesb) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Have been with @ThreeUK since 2005...15 years and the service has just got worse...time to switch! What you got @EE @virginmedia @O2

  • 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

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

  • Ieeshhhk ieesh (@Ieeshhhk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 what’s with the dodgey service today 🙄

  • _Rachele_ Rachele 🍷 (@_Rachele_) reported from Redditch, England

    @O2 It was bad all morning in Birmingham. Currently at home in Redditch and it's better but a tad slow. It's the 4G 👍

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

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

  • Wolvostu Stu Parry (@Wolvostu) reported from Dudley, England

    Is 02 down in the DY6 area @O2

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

    @O2 your customer service has gone extremely S**T

  • Bigglesdaf Andrew (@Bigglesdaf) reported from Wombourne, England

    @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @O2 Try it they seem to be willing to cancel for those who escalate to the ombudsman service

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

    @O2 Thats the answer I expected to be honest, to a customer of 18 years 👍🏼

  • Paul1366 The McFugget (@Paul1366) reported from Tamworth District, England

    @O2 Any known issues with the phone service in Tamworth and Lichfield. I can barely make phone calls and it shows I have 4g but the Internet is awfully slow.

  • 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

  • JakeBox7 Jake Box (@JakeBox7) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Swear no matter what town/city I go I get no ******* signal on 02 @O2

  • ReissOmari Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @o2 signal in birmingham, on 4g but nothing working, been like this was at least a week now, struggling to see why im playing £60 a month to use wi-fi only.

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

    @danboq @VodafoneUK @O2 have an annual rise in April too, when I have signal, the conversation will be interesting 😂

  • ChrisSammons_ 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

  • SaintlyChild 🏆Auld Yin🏆 (@SaintlyChild) reported

    @O2 Just had a fraudulent call from someone trying to pay me compensation from your poor customer service via LemFi app. What are you doing about this?

  • teejwxm TJ (@teejwxm) reported

    Hi @O2. Why have I got absolutely no signal? Not even 1 bar. Your service gets worse every day.

  • teamhill888 Lee Hill 8️⃣ (@teamhill888) reported

    @O2 We are just being passed around - hence the ofcom complaint and now being charged for new contract and phone - store can’t help either - cannot believe that no one in o2 can help

  • teejwxm TJ (@teejwxm) reported

    @bennybroadbean @O2 They never do anything, particularly in rural areas. They go on about using wifi calling, but that only works if you actually have internet, are at home or not in a powercut.

  • teejwxm TJ (@teejwxm) reported

    @O2 Yes, I’ll just call you with no signal 🙄

  • NoCroppedOK 🔥Cropped🔥🇩🇪 (@NoCroppedOK) reported

    @O2 pls don't outsource your service anymore and add an option for ds lite and dual stack for private customers and maybe we can talk about being sorry again

  • GTouple GreenTouple (@GTouple) reported

    @O2 Yeh I ported a number over, and it was fully functioning other than I just couldn't receive calls. It has started working now. the customer service agent wasn't really responding to me and just kept saying it would take up to 24 hours, so it wasn't very reassuring.

  • SEAMAC_VALET SEA-MAC VALET (@SEAMAC_VALET) reported

    @O2 NO I haven't. And I am not that in place with your customer service either at O2. It is not existent from online to phone calls to instore. I used to sing your praises. It has gotten to the stage that I will not be renewing my contract in November and I have better conversation

  • simonexmccabe simone🖤 (@simonexmccabe) reported

    @O2 Hii, I took out a new contract with yous yesterday and I clicked to get the Disney plus for 6 months for free added but it’s not sent me anything, can yous help please

  • NFFC69Will William Smith (@NFFC69Will) reported

    @O2 Not interested at all in looking into the matter to see where the failings in your customer service are happening? What’s happened at O2 you used to be the best service and provider. Just a “oh sorry bye”. You have a 1.2 rating on trustpilot for a reason, Vodafone has 4.6
