  • Richard_Y1 Richard (@Richard_Y1) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2, any particular reason why signal for mobile data is so poor/pretty much non-existent in the NE30 area?

  • LuckyTony72 Lucky Tony (@LuckyTony72) reported from Hebburn, England

    @O2 Got a call bar today. Absolutely shoddy customer service. Also I've waited a minimum of 20 minutes to speak to your alleged customer service agents who appear to be utterly inept to make a simple change.

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I need to cancel 2 expired phone contracts on my account before my new o2 phone contracts become active but can't get to use the contact o2 online chat. Can you sort this for me?

  • LuckyTony72 🎃 🎃 Lucky Tony 🎃 🎃 (@LuckyTony72) reported from Hebburn, England

    @O2 asked for a SIMPLE change to be made in August and 5 phonecalls later you still can't get it right! Customer service is a joke!!!

  • sharonhunter72 Sharon Hunter (@sharonhunter72) reported from Ashington, England

    Disgraceful service yet again with @O2 3 separate staff sorting refund within 7 days it’s now two weeks and guess what both call handlers HAVE NOT processed the refund 😡this is a phone was meant to have been cancelled in January but again this wasn’t done either hence refund😡

  • ScottSChristie Scott Christie (@ScottSChristie) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Is there an issue with signal in NE29 just now? Mine has been pretty bad for a couple of weeks now. Many Thanks.

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    Does anyone use @vodafone in the Northumberland area? Is it any good? I'm currently on @O2 but looking to switch networks as O2 are being extremely greedy with large price hikes on their already expensive network.

  • A11RNX Amran Ashraf (@A11RNX) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Hi. I’ve left O2 in September when my contract expired and switched to another provider. I was billed in September in error and I spoke to someone who refunded the difference from when my contract expired. I have today received a debt recovery letter???? Can someone help!

  • gavwells77 gavin wells (@gavwells77) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia @O2 your volt supercharge is a con! Why has my virgin media bill doubled and I’m being charged for making changes to my bill, none of this was mentioned to me this is a breach of contract im not paying almost £100 just cancel my package if that’s the case

  • chellehewison Michelle Hewison (@chellehewison) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Any issues in the Whitley Bay (NE26) area with mobile signal this weekend? I’ve barely been able to get 3G at times let alone anything else!

  • scoobyhugh8 Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I’m in Newcastle for the weekend and could hardly get a service, keeping jumping from 1 bar on 5G onto 3G, couldn’t get into social media or online due to it buffering. What a waste of time moving to you from EE

  • Danford2013 John McCarthy (@Danford2013) reported from Whickham, England

    @O2 I was spammed. Then defrauded. Went to O2 shop and reported issue. Told Fraud Dept would contact within 2 days. Three further calls to O2 (2O2) and one month later still no Fraud contact and no resolution. Today notice to take another payment. @O2 any chance of sorting?

  • Mckenna_Turner FMT (@Mckenna_Turner) reported

    @O2 how difficult is it to close an account? You know I don't owe you any money. I closed my account in Nov & handset sent back within 14 days because of unusable signal. Every time I call you say sorry & promise to sort this then you do nothing! Maybe public shaming will work 🤷

  • BlackCatJack101 Black Cat Jack 😺 (@BlackCatJack101) reported

    @Cc14935702 @Doctor7979 @O2 Never see him these days

  • kateab Kate C (@kateab) reported

    @o2 exactly when will you be rolling out 5G in the north west of England? Half the locations I’ve visited in the last two weeks I’ve had no signal despite you saying good coverage and every time I’ve reported you say the network is busy in that area. One of them is a college!

  • Harbiodun27 aajohnson (@Harbiodun27) reported

    @O2 I have tried to make payment for my bills and not going through. Customer care agent advised that I transferred to your bank account but the payment is still yet to be confirmed

  • HAALAND_ERA Tom (@HAALAND_ERA) reported

    @O2 is o2 down ?

  • jeremymutter Jeremy Mutter (@jeremymutter) reported

    @O2 Have tried all of the self help through the app

  • Lucidavis86 Lucinda (@Lucidavis86) reported

    Hi @O2 - have you changed the software you use for your online chat? It's awful and a bit of a step backwards 🙄

  • nicolakezia86 Nicola (@nicolakezia86) reported

    @o2 I am so disappointed with your service. After upgrading in October, I was over charged £68, I was charged for Disney which should’ve been free, I was fobbed off when I queried, I requested the money owed was refunded to my bank and it’s taken off my bill. Terrible service.

  • RyanFurse Öhana (@RyanFurse) reported

    @O2 customer communication comes second to taking there money.

  • ManLikeMarss Mars (@ManLikeMarss) reported

    @O2 Gotta be the worst network for coverage. How can it be worse than spin-off Giffgaff
