  • scoobyhugh8 Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I’m in Newcastle for the weekend and could hardly get a service, keeping jumping from 1 bar on 5G onto 3G, couldn’t get into social media or online due to it buffering. What a waste of time moving to you from EE

  • stobbsmeister Paddy (@stobbsmeister) reported from Seaham, England

    @ThreeUK counting down the days until I'm able to leave. I've overlooked the poor CS and data dead spots however the reintroduction of roaming charges (after banging the go roam drum for years) is the final straw. I'm sure I won't be the first or the last to jump to @O2

  • Slesss_ JoshSlesser (@Slesss_) reported from South Shields, England

    @O2 I can’t login into my o2 app, it says I might be a bee customer and to wait 48 hours but I’ve been a member for years 🤔 it’s just randomly started doing this

  • SgawShaw Muriel Sgaw (@SgawShaw) reported from Seaham, England

    @O2 @EleanorRylance And sack the poor employee?

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

  • CraigSi64474606 nufc4life (@CraigSi64474606) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 and can’t even login to my o2 account online to pay it that way

  • LuckyTony72 Lucky Tony (@LuckyTony72) reported from Hebburn, England

    @O2 Got a call bar today. Absolutely shoddy customer service. Also I've waited a minimum of 20 minutes to speak to your alleged customer service agents who appear to be utterly inept to make a simple change.

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I need to cancel 2 expired phone contracts on my account before my new o2 phone contracts become active but can't get to use the contact o2 online chat. Can you sort this for me?

  • A11RNX Amran Ashraf (@A11RNX) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Hi. I’ve left O2 in September when my contract expired and switched to another provider. I was billed in September in error and I spoke to someone who refunded the difference from when my contract expired. I have today received a debt recovery letter???? Can someone help!

  • Slesss_ JoshSlesser (@Slesss_) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia @O2 your volt supercharge is a con! Why has my virgin media bill doubled and I’m being charged for making changes to my bill, none of this was mentioned to me this is a breach of contract im not paying almost £100 just cancel my package if that’s the case

  • scoobyhugh8 Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 how can your service be so poor in a city centre.

    @O2 are you going to reduce my bill, because the signal I’m receiving for £78 a month is shocking! Not happy

  • ackoftheclones Matt Hardman (@ackoftheclones) reported

    @O2 @O2 I will continue to post about your awful customer service until you resolve this . Just saying you will get back to me isn’t good enough. How are you going to get back to me ? On my wife’s mobile number ? You might struggle ….

  • oflahertyevents OF Events (@oflahertyevents) reported

    @myrandomjukebox @O2 I know. I've seen Smarty unlimited for £15 a month with no annual price increase, however it's piggy backed on 3, and I don't think their signal is great where I am.

  • hold_pete Pete hold (@hold_pete) reported

    @O2 rpi + 3.9% is probably one the largest increases I have seen. companies that care would adjust to cpi or reduce the 3.9 and squeeze their profit margin for the benefit of their customer. Rather short sighted… do you think we don’t understand the compound impact of this.

  • ackoftheclones Matt Hardman (@ackoftheclones) reported

    @O2 Has some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced. So please vote / retweet/like Please vote on how you think @o2 is most likely to help resolve my wife’s phone issue will it be by…

  • m333ruu1 Umair Ahmed (@m333ruu1) reported

    @SammyPaynex @O2 @o2 someone is claiming fraud and you tell them to wait. Pathetic customer service

  • kayleighmqu KayIeigh Quinn (@kayleighmqu) reported

    Me as a union rep: I only believe in RPI Me as a customer when my phone company raises my cost by RPI: 😭 Hope @O2 are passing that RPI rise onto their staff’s pay @CWUnews

  • Sam_McK_88 Sam M (@Sam_McK_88) reported

    @Haggisman04 @O2 @virginmedia I'm going to guess the fee free cancellation only applies if you cancel the full package - VM and O2 - as VM allow you to leave penalty free but O2 don't. If you are just trying to cancel O2 on its own the usual early termination fees will probs apply

  • join4te Jay (@join4te) reported

    @O2 Day 100 of 365 on trying to get O2 to fix their phone customer service. 1) If you ring and ask for an e-sim for an Apple Watch then good luck with that. Staff seem very untrained. 2) Calls disconnect too much when speaking on 202. 3) The whole IVR system feels dated.

  • Mark29071823 Mark (@Mark29071823) reported

    @horseygin @O2 Exactly prices going up is never a good thing but doesn't feel as bad when you are getting the service you are paying for. Wouldn't be as bad if o2 was putting the profits into the network but the money is going right into ceo's pockets

  • valscholz Val Scholz (@valscholz) reported

    @t_hambrett @virginmedia @O2 Had a different but similar experience trying to cancel my contract as Virgin didn’t offer their services at the new flat. Took me 4 months and 2 formal complaints to finally cancel it as it’s impossible to do that online.
