  • ilovefluffy 🎃👻💀🙀🧟‍♂️ #booToYou (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 so… appalling service, no signal abroad, no signal at home… thought I might try to refresh my phone but it turns out that I can’t because last year there was a delay in getting my phone to me so my usual refresh date in October has been pushed back til November!

  • doc_drops Santa Drops is coming to Toon 🎅🎅 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    You’re rolling out 5G when Newcastle doesn’t even have basic coverage, I have a 50GB contract with you and barely manage to use 2GB a month due to lack of signal/searching for free Wifi @O2

  • daveyK1234 Dave (@daveyK1234) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @Blyth_Spartans @O2 It was bad enough live I don’t need to see it again 😏.

  • engg_rky Raj (@engg_rky) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    As expected @EE never cares about customer relationship and thus had not replied. @VodafoneUK @O2 if you have better options for me with 500 min India calls per month then please contact me I will port my number

  • petern280 peter nixon (@petern280) reported from Springwell, England

    @O2 is there an issue with the app data counter, mines said unavailable for the last few days

  • sheilavictoriaR Sheila Robson (@sheilavictoriaR) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @O2 Im pleased 😊 scammers are awful!

  • _RebeccaJT Rebecca (@_RebeccaJT) reported from Sunderland, England

    @O2 can someone please give me a response to a query, I have had an automated reply in dm which not helpful in anyway. I have tried my o2 app and it doesn’t help. I have also tried ringing o2 just keep getting cut off.

  • DarrenMorgan Darren (@DarrenMorgan) reported from Washington, England

    @BootneckShuffle @O2 @EE Never had a problem with O2 untill I switched my DD date. They're hopeless

  • ilovefluffy 🎃👻💀🙀🧟‍♂️ #booToYou (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    So to be straight: because @O2 have been terrible for over a year, I can’t refresh my phone until after I get back from my Christmas trip! You’re very VERY quickly losing a customer here and I’ve been with o2 for nearly 15 years.

  • simonkeenan007 simon keenan (@simonkeenan007) reported from South Shields, England

    @O2 Ignore me I'm being stupid lol, now let's move alone and ignore what I said have a great day and thank you

  • ilovefluffy andrew 🎃 (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I was supposed to get a free upgrade every 12 months but your "problems with supply" last year meant that I didn't get my new phone for over a month after I requested it, so my refresh date is a month later, which pushes it past my annual christmas trip. It's a farce.

  • AngieOrrick Angie Orrick (@AngieOrrick) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @O2 you have the worst customer service ever encountered! If I could stop paying you I would! That’s your shop and by telephone

  • doc_drops Spooky Scary Skeledrops🎃🎃🎃 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Your service in NE2 is shocking

  • ilovefluffy andrew 🎃 (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @2bard @intueldonsquare @northumbriapol You're right in normal circumstances, however my phone signal keeps cutting out while @O2 are upgrading to 5G, last week a man had a seizure in front of me and I was getting repeatedly disconnected from the emergency services while trying to get an ambulance.

  • KyleMarleau Kyle Marleau (@KyleMarleau) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @LukeSwinden @O2 I’m in the same battle with them. I claim they never heard of it. Can’t block that number. It’s not their fault. I signed up. I didn’t. Never heard of that before. I think @O2 sold my number or something. Shady

  • doc_drops Spooky Scary Skeledrops🎃🎃🎃 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Your coverage in most of Newcastle is shocking, I live in NE2 and the best signal I get is 1 bar of 3G in my iPhone 7

  • craigblundred Craig Blundred (@craigblundred) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 hi - my wife has been trying to resolve issue with SMS settings - have disappeared yet again. Spent over an hour on live chat but keeps getting passed to different teams then cut off. Has happened before we know what needs to be done but very poor service now.

  • RuxanaNargol Ruxana Nargolwala (@RuxanaNargol) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @hellyarrj @O2 Having the same problem. #o2 should deal with this. Totally unacceptable.

  • Lauras95 Lauraaaa (@Lauras95) reported from Gateshead, England

    @O2 I'll try one of these out. I've never had this problem before so hopefully it was just a one off mishap.

  • fredspoon philip (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    Lots of companies doing their bit to help. I got an email from @O2 this morning and how they are helping is allowing people to access the @NHSuk websites without using your data. Whoopy ******* doodle do. I can’t wait it’s like Christmas all over again.

  • KevinBeckley7 Kevin Beckley (@KevinBeckley7) reported

    @O2 @Reellie70 I'm in exactly the same situation @O2 I have messaged you now via FB messenger regarding the problem. The issue is ridiculous, the call centre can't seem to remove the number either. Just upgraded today also and wondering if I've made a mistake

  • chrisday2016 Chris Day (@chrisday2016) reported

    @O2 why is it so hard to speak to a human being instead of a machine? You guys are restricting my service due to an unplayed bill yet all I kept getting when calling is a machine!! Can a human please help.

  • jaerobinson2702 Jae Robinson #CeasefireInGazaNow (@jaerobinson2702) reported

    @O2 DONT USE O2 THEY MESS UP YOUR DATA AND THEN TRY TO BULLY YOU INTO CONTRACTS AS ONLY SOLUTION & START TRANSFERRING YOU AROUND. TRIED TO COMPLAIN BUT NOW THEY MAY BE WRONG DEPT & BEING TRANSFERRED AGAIN & AGAIN & AGAIN &AGAIN

  • RubenDogliani Ruben D (@RubenDogliani) reported

    @O2 please sort out your customer service chats and allow people to log in O2 to get our invoices. I’m not interested in signing up to virgin media. I have an o2 account

  • Benn_Sanderson Benn Sanderson (@Benn_Sanderson) reported

    @O2 All I can get is the AI and it doesn’t help much

  • silvercupra Richard Varney (@silvercupra) reported

    @tom1408 @O2 @VirginMediaO2 I agree with you Tom we are paying for a service all the onus of linking accounts placed on the customer hence to say as of yesterday I can't login!

  • GemSwanz Gem Swanson© (@GemSwanz) reported

    @O2 Why have it in there if you can’t use it? Why can you communicate to messages via insta and not here? Joining forces with VM appears to have been a poor move. Crap signal and palmed off when trying to contact. Sounds exactly like VM. Very annoying.

  • jaerobinson2702 Jae Robinson #CeasefireInGazaNow (@jaerobinson2702) reported

    @O2 Spent the entire day being messed around over a PAYG data issue, latest quick transfer "because I'm disabled" has gone to somebody who can't help. Now victimisation I am getting really upset now over how I am being treated. I have been an O2 customer with various No's over 20yrs

  • J_Batters JayEnnBee (@J_Batters) reported

    @O2 hey O2. Your customer service is the most shocking I’ve ever dealt with. I’ve had 3 lines dead for over 3 weeks and your support keep telling me to “rest assured” they will fix it. No confidence in your ability to deliver a service.
