Stephen Pickup (@StevePickupTM) reported from Lower Darwen, England
20 years with @O2 and this will be my last contract with them come September the staff in the Blackburn store need a lesson in salesmanship when sat in front of a customer looking down at their phone texting is not a great way of convincing people to stay with the network

Chris Thompson (@Chris_Mr_T) reported from Chorley, England
Hi @O2 we’ve been in Blackpool most of the day and have little or no signal until we were leaving. Do you have a known issue, a lack of cell towers or something? We’ve been half a dozen times this year and it’s always the same on 3 different phones.

Ian Gee (@laticsian) reported from Chorley, England
@O2 You've had a ****** stinker there haven't you. Website down all day for your #O2Priority. Gigs and Tours have allowed people to buy their tickets while your shitshow has allowed 1000's to miss out on tickets. Bravo!
-
Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, England
Absolute shambles from @O2 with the pre sale of Peter Kay tickets. I managed to get some through gigs & tours but no checks so could have bought them even if I wasn't an O2 customer. Pointless having a pre sale if its open to all #peterkay #O2Priority

Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, England
@carolyn_keenan @O2 @peterkay_co_uk Go directly through gigs and tours. Some more dates added later in 2023. I've just manged 2 get 2 for Sept 2023 in Manchester no problem.

@O2 If the sites down how tickets already on resale over £250 Another example of f@ck the public & as long as we get our money who cares who buys them, ordinary punters or touts Disgraceful, @peterkay_co_uk should step in seeing as the strapline is low prices in these difficult times

@O2 where do I even start? What a waste of space time money and oxygen this company is. Jokers. Still waiting for a reply to complaint 2 weeks ago. 4 months (less a couple of days) I’ve been waiting for you to update my name following marriage.

Dannyp#23 (@23_dannyp) reported from Lea Town, England
@o2 network is non existent in the Clifton village area. Hope this gets sorted soon as this is the 4th day that people at work can’t use their phones properly
-
Dani Tomlinson 🎶 (@6danicalifornia) reported from Horwich, England
I really wish @O2 can sort out the issues in Horwich. Trying to contact your insurance and police etc after a break in is extremely frustrating when there's no bloody signal 😡😡
-
Alf Myers (@AlfMyers) reported from Preston, England
@O2 How can I stop receiving letters from you for someone how has never lived at my address? After 4 attempts of using your help desk. I've had 4 different responses and I'm still getting mail.

@O2 It's not my postcode, it's one I'm regularly in where the issue seems to be consistent..

bay (@Baynesi83) reported from Mellor, England
@NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Here she is again that glam Nan spouting bollocks that is instantly shot down by ordinary people who seem to actually know facts. She really needs to shut up or just read factual information instead of coming across as an incompetent muppet.

Andy Nichols (@AdnyNichols) reported from Horwich, England
@O2 Hi i changed my contract with you last Wednesday and have been waiting for a delivery order reference KMM2134901340I15977L0KM. It has not arrived yet can you help please.
-
Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England
@psychomania666 @O2 At least it was on 3G. Most of the time it falls back to 2G round here. Plenty of boilerplate "we're always striving to improve the network" and "stay tuned" from @O2 but no actual improvement. At this point I'm sure there won't be any except in affluent areas down south.
-
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...
-
Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England
@psychomania666 @O2 Brace yourself for a string of promises that will never actually materialise...

Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported from Preston, England
@O2 I’d be winner if I could have 4g & a full signal
-
Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported from Burscough, England
@o2 the worst company for customer service

Two years down the line from becoming a widow, O2 is affecting my credit score you never noted missed payment from my late husband’s account as he lay in hospital, dying. Shame @O2 @virginmedia @o2breavementsupport Bereavement & Critical illness Team (KMM134555427V81287L0KM

Rango (@RangoTheGrump) reported
@O2 @Brian_McLachlan So it’s busy for data where he is? So why are you not increasing the bandwidth? This increase in demand can’t have magically happened, this is over time. So why do you continually fail to adapt to these demands? Your coverage everywhere is increasingly getting worse.
-
Rango (@RangoTheGrump) reported
@dshensmith @ThreeUK - I’ve been considering leaving @O2 due to their continually declining network coverage in towns and cities, so looking for an alternative. However what you’ve been doing here is a massive red flag, so you’re off my list for sure.
-
kirst-123 (@princessmurray) reported
@O2 2 hours on hold to try and pay you money, pushed from pillow to post because of your system errors. Waited 6 weeks for a manager to call. Absolutely shocking. Might as well buy a pay as you go chip 😡
-
Darin Halifax (@darinhalifax) reported
@O2 is your live chat not working?

@O2 I have made 2 complaints you where meant to remove my amazon subscription that your advisor added to my account without my consent in Feb and refund me. But instead you have put a complete closure on my account from 06/07/25 and no one knows how to fix this. #poorservice
