    Only me would buy a new sim for a network provider who doesn’t seem to have signal in my house 🙈 @O2 doesn’t seem to do rural addresses 🌱

  • AlexHamer1 Alex Hamer (@AlexHamer1) reported from Blackburn, England

    @O2 why has my 4G mysteriously stopped working just as my 2 year contract expires? I’m currently on a rolling contract at reduced rate. Seems very odd it would all of a sudden cut out completely?

  • grshorwich Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England

    @psychomania666 @O2 And of course on 3G you do get a reasonable signal but no actual data throughput...

  • Filthy_McTurner Filthy_McTurner (@Filthy_McTurner) reported from Preston, England

    @O2 Next time is next year, I barred from Caffe Nero after a 'incident' over Summer.

  • grshorwich Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England

    @psychomania666 @O2 Brace yourself for a string of promises that will never actually materialise...

  • SourEnvy Elliot ⚽️🏈🎮 (@SourEnvy) reported from Preston, England

    @O2 I was just advised it would arrive after my phone. I'll sort the claim out tonight, thanks for the help. 👍🏻

  • TheFootyTog Pete Burns (@TheFootyTog) reported from Much Hoole, England

    @AJPNEFC @PNEPhil @O2 @pnefc Problem is so many people in one place trying to access at the same time

  • emmabirdy Em (@emmabirdy) reported from Blackburn, England

    @O2 what’s going on with your network around the Bb2 area of blackburn? Had poor signal for several days but according to you you’ve either fixed it or there is no issues. #rubbish #needsignal

  • mcainey88 McAiney Ⓜ️ (@mcainey88) reported from Preston, England

O2 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • AFrancisPhoto Andrew Francis (@AFrancisPhoto) reported

    @O2 your Star Trader was down last month and no commission payment made. The site is now running, but no payment made. You prioritised rectifying the site but not the payment. Please tell me when payments will resume? I don’t want to go another year to two years with no payment.

  • Jimbobthon James Richards (@Jimbobthon) reported

    @O2 Option 5 - Having staff in your own store call me a liar because I report an issue with your network, then attempt to report me for breaching terms because they saw a EE PAYG SIM in my phone also. Or your support team not wanting to listen. List carries on

  • Jimbobthon James Richards (@Jimbobthon) reported

    @O2 Option 4 - Consistently losing signal even though you say everything is ok

  • nick_murrell Nick Murrell (@nick_murrell) reported

    My tariff includes USA roaming but the service is next to useless as its throttled to 0.5mbps. Why do you do that @O2 ? All apps including maps are effectively useless. Your customer call centre operators also didn't seem to know this. #o2

  • wanderin_jules WanderinJules (@wanderin_jules) reported

    Day 2 of no phone signal from o2. Mast still being repaired? Time for compensation. @o2 @ofcom

  • Supa_Nico Nick Watts (@Supa_Nico) reported

    @scottbezza @O2 Never understood this.

  • Mrsfab9 Mrsfab (@Mrsfab9) reported

    @O2 I am trying to book and the code is not working

  • soup_gravy Bri Bri (@soup_gravy) reported

    It's like @o2 and @virginmedia are battling for top spot on who can provide the worst services. 2+ weeks it's been daily issues with both companies

  • Troubz_Char Troubz (@Troubz_Char) reported

    Big up Dan in @o2 Stratford. Excellent customer service and very accommodating. It goes to show why he is the store manager

  • Vicki_Scotty Vicki (@Vicki_Scotty) reported

    @ladytarasimone @O2 Since I’ve moved to O2 I’ve genuinely not had a single day without a spam call. Never once had this issue on EE so unsure why the sudden surge but can only put it down to the network.
