  • 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?

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @saoirse_22 @SamsungUK @O2 @virginmedia It appears to be a security certificate issue but I can actually access the certificate details on my phone. So, stumped but learned how to do something I didn't know I didn't know... #JoHari

  • PhillyG_83 Philip Gordon (@PhillyG_83) reported from Southport, England

    @O2 your customer service is awful. Staff hanging up on me all day. Need a senior manager to look into my issue!

  • 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

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

  • 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...

    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 🌱

  • Treaders1984 Michael Treadwell (@Treaders1984) reported from Penwortham, England

  • mgtd76 Mark Davis (@mgtd76) reported

    @virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 My WiFi needs a defib. Been down all week (with the occasional false hope). SM1. Any ideas?

  • londondines london (@londondines) reported

    @sphesx @O2 It’s unnacceptable that @O2 reply instantly publicly to make it look like they care but then they don’t reply to the DM so yet again we wait for help that won’t come. Customer service here has gone down hill so much. I am totally shocked and appalled

  • londondines london (@londondines) reported

    @AbbieRoseSmith @O2 I’d like to hear what the complaint email is as I can’t get any help from o2 either

  • londondines london (@londondines) reported

    @Gogger16 @O2 Yeah I’m having similar issue but worse as I’m stuck. They can’t transfer my old esim to my new phone and they can’t activate my physical sim. 2 weeks I’ve been without a sim but paying for their diabolical customer service. I one @O2 cares about helping. Change network.

  • BostanAbid abid bostan (@BostanAbid) reported

    @O2 I’ve rang three times to resolve this.. waited endlessly on hold, a simple procedure has led to me having a poor lads mobile number. Somebody has mine also. #poorcustomerservice #02

  • ShukranAli16 Shukran Ali (@ShukranAli16) reported

    @O2 Stop lying to your customers and fix your reps

  • DWNLacey Dave Lacey (@DWNLacey) reported

    @O2 your service coverage is dire, you used to be the best around Wellington TA21 9 but it is now pretty much unusable! Time to change I think 🤔

  • Gogger16 Gogger (@Gogger16) reported

    @O2 OK, just had the worst customer service. Spoke to two people and they had NO CLUE whatsoever. They sounded like children on the phone. Apparently O2 cannot sell me an eSIM at moment due to "issues" and this has been the case for 2 months???

  • londondines london (@londondines) reported

    @lemoche_kr @O2 Be careful - @O2 eSIms are NOT working. I can’t use my new phone because of this but they don’t tell you. They can’t transfer esim over to a new phone and then you get stuck so you can’t even activate a physical sim. Shocking customer service better to change companies

  • londondines london (@londondines) reported

    @GadenKalel1983 @O2 No one has replied to my message either from @O2 But be careful their eSIms are NOT working at the moment. I’m stuck and can’t use my phone because the new esim has been pending for two weeks and they also can’t activate physical sim so I can’t use anything.
