  • owengmusic Eoghan (@owengmusic) reported from Bracknell, England

    @o2 Ive transferred over to another network but I cant use my phone because you wont unlock it after 2 store visits (Wandsworth and Bracknell) very frustrating

  • carboncoach Dave Hampton 🌍 (@carboncoach) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    @O2 Tried everything. (Apart from trying SIM in another phone). Previously if ever ‘SIM not working’ flashed up all I had to do was switch phone on/off. Not this time. Help!

  • HarryRobertson5 Harry Robertson (@HarryRobertson5) reported from Bracknell, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I want the note 20 4g but was told for 30gb £58 a month with a upfront cost, where as my "customer exclusive offer" was £55 a month. Or I can can to @O2 and get 90gb for £51 a month with a less up front cost. Talk about customer loyalty!!!

  • Daftblonde64 STEELEY (@Daftblonde64) reported from Reading, England

    @O2 please help. Loyal customer trying to cancel contract belonging to misplaced / unused phone. Waited in queue for 1 hour and 8 minutes. Music stopped, phone rang then cut out. Back to square one. How do I cancel ?

  • aamer74 aamer habib (@aamer74) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @O2 @England My ba p2 priority codes for the cinema are not working

  • natejrogers Nate Rogers (@natejrogers) reported from Wokingham, England

    So my @O2 contract has now gone back to its normal price (which is double). Does that mean I’m now going to get double the service? I bloody hope so, cos it’s pretty sucky at the moment.

  • Jenzy84 Jenna Christie (@Jenzy84) reported from Wokingham, England

    @O2 sort out your customer services ! Waited ages and because the operator didn’t like me saying how ridiculous the service was he cut me off!!! #disgusted

  • carboncoach Dave Hampton 🌍 (@carboncoach) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    If I was a shareholder in @O2 rather than a loyal customer today would be the day I sold.

  • carboncoach Dave Hampton 🌍 (@carboncoach) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    My SIM only service with @O2 has packed up inexplicably today; and O2 slow to respond. Anyway I am without phone. So please DM if you need me.

  • KellyMSanders kelly marie sanders (@KellyMSanders) reported from Bracknell, England

    @O2 hi I waited until the pro max was saying next day delivery to order - it says it right now so I paid my last phone off to order it and ten mins later got an out of stock email. Can you tell me how to cancel everything I just did please?

  • HarryRobertson5 Harry Robertson (@HarryRobertson5) reported from Bracknell, England

    @ThreeUK been a loyal customer for 6 years, recently brought a new contract through you, yet my upgrade price is far from being a loyal customer, I cant even get an existing customer deal unless I take out a third contract, what a joke! Even @O2 are cheaper than what I was told

  • chlooedenise chloë (@chlooedenise) reported from Reading, England

    @O2 my data hasnt been working in Europe now for months, any help thanks

  • SaintGeorgie Georgie Tongue (@SaintGeorgie) reported from Wokingham, England

    @O2 I spent hours on chat to your advisers trying to cancel my phone contract and was told it was all done. I started a new contract with another provider and now suddenly I have been started on a new o2 tariff??? Help!

  • GeorgeGower_ George Gower (@GeorgeGower_) reported from Blackwater, England

    @O2 unable to log into my o2 online to upgrade. Password etc is correct, but it’s not loading the page on numerous devices. Is there any known issues?

  • SarahScogley Sarah cogley (@SarahScogley) reported from Bracknell, England

    @O2 your customer service is an absolute joke.

  • akasha303 Greg Meeres (@akasha303) reported from Twyford, England

    @O2 Your web chat support team advised I ‘needed’ to call Equifax, rather than Experian, even when I queried (as I have an Experian account). Might want to check the process playbooks! (Issue is now resolved through a work around).

  • JonLeePButler Jon-Lee Paul Butler (@JonLeePButler) reported from Fleet, England

    @O2 if a mast in the area is not working, and service checker gives message of 'taking longer than expected' to fix. Would ALL O2 mobiles be affected in the area? Just asking, as mine is without signal but flatmates is with. Odd that. Don't you think?

  • gonnella Pete (@gonnella) reported from Woodley, England

    @O2 frustrating deal with you guys, 6 months of poor service. Now dealing with your networks team, you quite obviously have a coverage issue in my area. Please just let me leave my sim only contract early thanks.

  • Ricardo_7united 🔻ᏒᎥፈᏂᏗᏒᎴ ᏕᏗᏁᎴᏋᏒᏕ/Ⓡⓔⓓ ⚽️🥅🎮🍪🍻 🔻 (@Ricardo_7united) reported from High Wycombe, England

    @sophdefoe92 I had that problem on @O2 but managed to sort it out

  • doncmccall Don McCall (@doncmccall) reported from Reading, England

    @O2 absolutely appalled by your customer service! And refund that has not arrived after waiting the requested time. Customer service agent was rude at the very end.

  • neenakoshal Neena Koshal (@neenakoshal) reported

    @O2 please can someone call me! Enough is enough! I can’t believe how incompetent o2 have been and I’ve had enough! And if this is how you treat your new customers it’s a definite no no for me

  • Ben1988Harvey Ben Harvey (@Ben1988Harvey) reported

    @wwfcscott I have exactly the same issue mate. I’m with @O2 and unless I’m on Wi-Fi or 5G ( sometimes 4G ) my phone may as well be turned off.

  • Harjieeee ਹਰਜ (@Harjieeee) reported

    @O2 Is the signal going to improve with a new phone? I think not!

  • MillieFiore 🐀🌻🌻🌻😷💖 Millie Fiore 🌺🐄🕷️🌳 (@MillieFiore) reported

    @O2 status checker says signal is fine: but no signal, E, and 3G are constants on my phone. Continually needing to reboot in order to get 4G. Multiple times in minutes, sometimes. Is this a wider network issue ? It has been happening since before the New Year.

  • ESNYSOFIA fia ♡ ‘s laura (@ESNYSOFIA) reported

    @O2 I need help. My services are off and the lines are out until tomorrow!!!! I need my phone to be available

  • 2ducksva 2ducksva 🦆🦆 (@2ducksva) reported

    .@WeAreOpenreach please get this fixed. We are still without broadband in SG1, and now have an updated fix date of the 18th January. Sort it out. @O2 and chance of some free data please? I wfh and its been so difficult and I'm close to running out.

  • BerryandEmmett Berry (@BerryandEmmett) reported

    @O2 No problem! Can I just check, am I okay to keep using my phone until it loses signal or should I not be using it?

  • d4vef1965 David French (@d4vef1965) reported

    @O2 I'm trying to enable wi-fi calling on my phone but it seems it needs to be enabled on the account first. I've tried tech support but they don't seem to have a clue. The website implies you can do it yourself but you can't...

    It actually says, Statute,. No matter the debt amount, leave people with an emergency line @3 @o2
