    @O2 Im pleased 😊 scammers are awful!

  • 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!

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

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

    I’m curious how my number for sold ... I think @O2 sold it. Was only 3 for 4 years. Zero issue. Was on o2 for 4 months and this happened. Bullshit.

  • 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.

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

    @O2 Your service in NE2 is shocking

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @christe1 @O2 It’s identical but @O2 claims they never heard of it. It’s on their website. 🐍

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • mcresswell75 matt (@mcresswell75) reported

    @O2 why is there always an outage in Derby when its heavy rain 😩

  • jgbgt jon g (@jgbgt) reported

    @O2 why can you not comply with requirement to send a text- have messaged PAC several times with no reply. Also no reply to INFO. @Ofcom - I’m within cooling off and unable to leave just transferred between departs and PAC text doesn’t work. Please help.

  • badassscotsman BigYin (@badassscotsman) reported

    WELCOME TO @O2 where DM,S NEVER ANSWERED. Phone calls never answered or they hang up on you and divert your call to @virginmedia????. They provided you with the same copy@paste excuses...

  • michelle_moomin Michelle Annie (@michelle_moomin) reported

    @O2 Absolutely shocking service at your Cribbs Causeway branch. So much so, a lady followed me from the store to say she had the same issues with them.

  • stefanpoole87 Stefan Poole (@stefanpoole87) reported

    Great work @O2 Cut my wife’s phone off when renewing contract. Has taken 3 hours to try and get reconnected and then you hung up on her and you are now closed. Now 33 weeks pregnant lady is now without a phone with network.

  • iD_Mobile_UK iD Mobile (@iD_Mobile_UK) reported

    @OllyFT @O2 @giffgaff The call would be from a Sales Team. If you like I can take details of your complaint here? - Siân

  • join4te Jay (@join4te) reported

    @O2 Day 130 of 365 on trying to get O2 to fix their phone customer service. 1) If you ring and ask for an e-sim for an Apple Watch then good luck with that. Staff seem very untrained. 2) Calls disconnect too much when speaking on 202. 3) The whole IVR system feels dated.

  • OllyFT Oliver Fytche-Taylor (@OllyFT) reported

    @iD_Mobile_UK @O2 @giffgaff I don't know what the glitch is, it just fails to process. Your own cust service team don't know either - I tried twice both, times they promised a call back because they were unable to identify the issue. Both times you failed to contact me so why should I stick with you?

  • RanKotobukiii 👸🏿 (@RanKotobukiii) reported

    @O2 I don't know who needs to hear this but whatever happens NEVER EVER EVER use o2 as a service. I pay 30£ a month for unlimited Internet and the service is not working!!! Customer service will gaslight you or not respond at all!!! Probably this comment will be uploaded tomorrow...

  • OllyFT Oliver Fytche-Taylor (@OllyFT) reported

    @iD_Mobile_UK @O2 @giffgaff Yes, they match exactly. This has been checked by me, by two separate Cust serves advisors and then by the online sales team. They couldnt see a problem so promised call back. All lied, nobody tried to call which is why I had to contact you again, and go through it a 2nd time.
