  • 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

  • sammyjayne182 Sam Dugdale (@sammyjayne182) reported from Stalmine, England

    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 🌱

  • AlfMyers 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.

  • grshorwich 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.

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

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

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

    @O2 why is the mobile data signal so poor in Preston and the surrounding areas?!? Got a text to say you were improving the sigbal in our area and ever since its veen worse! #no4gor3g #20GBwasted

  • AngharadParry3 Angharad Thorp (@AngharadParry3) reported from Preston, England

    @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.

  • Baynesi83 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.

  • 23_dannyp 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

  • davepakey71 Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported from Preston, England

    @O2 I’d be winner if I could have 4g & a full signal

  • davepakey71 Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported from Preston, England

    @O2 last week had to threaten to leave after 15years as a customer to get 100gb for £20 now I see your adverts for the deal😡

  • LeeJLewis leejlewis (@LeeJLewis) reported from Preston, England

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

  • SamAspinall95 Sam (@SamAspinall95) reported from Leyland, England

    @O2 would you be able to Message me in regards to my bill, can’t seem to ring customer service just disconnects

  • davepakey71 Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported from Burscough, England

    @o2 the worst company for customer service

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

    @O2 no signal or Internet here in preston. Is service down?

  • 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...

  • Natalie_Sharpp Natalie Sharp 🇬🇧🇳🇬 🌱🌻 (@Natalie_Sharpp) reported from Preston, England

    @O2 Can somebody help me I’m trying to get a live chat up and nothing is working! My phone won’t make any calls it’s just silent when it rings and it’s the same when somebody tries ringing me !!!

  • AdnyNichols 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.

  • 6danicalifornia 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 😡😡

  • 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?

  • GOTSA_ Georgie (@GOTSA_) reported

    Can anyone help me? @TalkTalk were due to install my fibre yesterday and I’ve been without services for over 2 weeks incurring £100 in additional data charges with @O2. The engineer never turned up, @TalkTalk are stonewalling me, I’ve no idea when I’d get connected…

  • Michael_Howell Michael Evans (@Michael_Howell) reported

    @O2 Despite attempting to accept your £5.99 Disney+ offer several times, your system is not allowing me to complete the transaction. I hope that you will help me to conclude this matter satisfactorily in the New Year. Goodnight and HNY.

    @O2 Hello, O2 - please can you help me to cancel a payment plan on a tablet that can’t be used anymore? Thank you 🙏🏻

  • MarcHasNoFilter Marc (@MarcHasNoFilter) reported

    @O2 I’ve just upgraded my phone and need to choose my extra. I’d like to use the 6 months of free Disney+, but I already had it as a discounted add on with my old tariff. Can I still use this as my new extra, and do I need to cancel the current subscription (1/2)

  • JessPacker5 Jess Packer (@JessPacker5) reported

    @O2 Thanks for the number @O2 I called for the 6th time. 56 minutes on the phone. Customer service will e-mail the fraud team for the 4th time and we are still no further. Happy New Year!!
