  • DaveWrigh Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

    This Christmas, @O2 is donating data to those who need it. For every tweet using #O2DataPledge this Giving Tuesday, they'll donate even more data to the National Databank. Tap below to tweet your support 👇

  • SawdayJames James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @O2 your network coverage across the UK is awful: there’s about one street in Manchester where I get a useable 4G signal and nowhere else. Definitely isn’t my devise as I’ve just been aboard and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • OliverBanks Oliver Banks 🇺🇦 (@OliverBanks) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 hi, how do I cancel a contract within the 14 day cooling off period please?

  • greenbhoy1 Paolo Mac (@greenbhoy1) reported from Prescot, England

    Thread: Twitter people I need some help. I’ve had my broadband with @SkyHelpTeam in excess of 15 years & my mobile with @O2 for not far off. I used up my data early this month, only happened a couple of times that. Topped up for 1GB on Wednesday for £10 & already it has gone.

    @O2 Hey - I have checked the guide. It’s not my device as it worked 100% better on a recent trip to France. It’s not the environment as this is something I experience everywhere (in Leicester, in Manchester, on trains, at festivals) - but your signal checker says I have good 4G.

  • chrisrogan Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, England

    Pee'd off at @GreggsOfficial and @O2 three weeks in a row with priority debacle. One week over charged, last week paid for my own this week walked out. Staff not trained in the offer and Greggs not responding to customer service emails. More Greggs issue than o2.

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 @purpledolphins7 They didn't help me. They didn't apply the increase in speed. In fact they said I could have 1gig for £30 extraper month. False advertising and liars!

  • SteveyAsp Steve Aspinall (@SteveyAsp) reported from Runcorn, England

    Wow @O2 Customer Service is the worst I’ve come across

  • grantmathieson Grant Griffiths-Mathieson (@grantmathieson) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @O2 Has she maybe assumed data protection issue

  • SawdayJames James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Also sorry - but what’s the point in telling me to use a network checker if you don’t accept the results of the checker? That’s literally your app I’m using and it’s giving me terrible results.

  • JMcKnighty ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported from Manchester, England

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

  • AWorkOfStuART STUasaurus Rex 🦖 © (@AWorkOfStuART) reported from Kidsgrove, England

    @JamesGLA90 @O2 Yup. F*cking awful

  • nuttyhill Patrick Veale (@nuttyhill) reported from Warrington, England

    @O2 why does your signal seem to be terrible everywhere now? Even in town centres. I know you've partnered with @virginmedia but you didn't have to share their service quality

  • violetibeh Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

  • howierice Howard Rice (@howierice) reported from Sale, England

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

  • SawdayJames James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Well I said I am having problems with my 4g, you told me to follow the guide which told me to use the network checker, I showed you the results of the network checker and you said 4G isn’t about speeds. So what’s the point in telling me to use the network checker?

    @O2 @O2 can a O2 customer cancel their account without termination fees if they are having signal issues? Is this possible?

  • SandyyRobertson Sandy Robertson (@SandyyRobertson) reported

    @O2 any chance of some help? Spoken to 4 people so far and getting nowhere

  • dave_fincham Dave Fincham Photography (@dave_fincham) reported

    @O2 Thank you for contacting me. I have a terrible experience dealing with your team and to be treated this way as a veteran dealing with CPTSD is appalling. You have details to this effect on file yet ignore these when talking to me. Your whole system needs attention.

  • LScarland Lyn Scarland💙 (@LScarland) reported

    @O2 You’re online chat is not available and I’ve tried to email to be told it’s now shut down Very disappointed in o2

  • anaissxo Anais (@anaissxo) reported

    @O2 so disappointed with your service I’ve called about three times today for me to just be kept on hold for 2 hours. My service has been cut off completely and my bill isn’t due until next week! This is why I’m leaving you guys your service is ridiculous

  • TelefonicaUK Telefónica in the UK (@TelefonicaUK) reported

    📢 We're pleased to announce that we’ll be zero rating online learning site @OakNational, so home schooling families can access it for free on our @O2 network 📲 We're working very closely with the Oak National Academy to make this happen asap - more details to follow 👀

  • JeremyAdamsNI Jeremy Adams (@JeremyAdamsNI) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Kudos to @O2 for customer service today. Recommend going via app ‘Start a Conversation’ section.

  • A_Garner88 Adam (@A_Garner88) reported

    @O2 hi my wife is having a major issue with her phone which started in October and has now culminated in her having no phone at all. I’ve been in contact with customer services today and was assured a callback this has not happened. Is there anything that can be done via Twitter.

  • nellarosexo G (@nellarosexo) reported

    @O2 hello, my lines been completely cut off way before my bill date. I can’t even call the payment management team because I can’t make calls nor can I receive calls can something be done because I need my service back

  • MarkPM_MSFT Mark Pryce-Maher (@MarkPM_MSFT) reported

    @O2 Hay, 40 mins of looping through your phone system, does not make anyone happy... plus do not print out of service phone numbers on your letters!! Simple stuff...I have given up for today... #o2fail
