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

    @O2 doorstep phone swap arranged for yesterday as sons I phone 6 days old and faulty , email confirmation saying it would be by 10.30 ! FAmily Waited in all day nothing arrived ! Tracking states phone still at depot …….. very unhappy customer 😡

  • 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

  • kathrynbaird_ Kathryn Baird (@kathrynbaird_) reported from Cramlington, England

    @O2 do you actually talk to your customers? I’ve been trying to contact you all week via the app, have called numerous times to be hung up on by an automated service and can’t get through to you at all. You’ve charged me twice for my bill & disconnected me even though I’ve paid!

  • Slesss_ JoshSlesser (@Slesss_) reported from South Shields, England

    @O2 I can’t login into my o2 app, it says I might be a bee customer and to wait 48 hours but I’ve been a member for years 🤔 it’s just randomly started doing this

  • 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!!!

  • adshill Adam Hill (@adshill) reported from Morpeth, England

    @O2 I’ve just been told that the only way I can use My O2 is to setup a new email account despite My O2 saying it’s the phone number that is the problem. Do I have to have two email accounts just for O2? Seems utterly absurd.

  • VictoriaMurtha Victoria Murtha (@VictoriaMurtha) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Currently trying to upgrade my phone. No online agents available, if I visit the store will there be someone available to help me?

  • Leggler75 Emma (@Leggler75) reported from Gateshead, England

    My husband & I have been with @O2 for 15 years plus. Can’t believe the terrible service after using them & O2 recycle. 10 phone calls later no further forward. Kept phone & no money. Disgusting 😡

  • MattKeena 🏳️‍🌈Matt Keena🏳️‍🌈 (@MattKeena) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 are you going to reduce my bill, because the signal I’m receiving for £78 a month is shocking! Not happy

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

  • DarranBlackshaw Darran Blackshaw (@DarranBlackshaw) reported from Seaton Valley, England

    @O2 rang for help and answering machine says ring back in 24hrs and hangs up -really ??

  • 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.

  • doc_drops Andros 👾👾👾 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 my sim stopped working, I can’t ring 202, can’t go to your shops and your live chat is down. Please help

  • Slesss_ JoshSlesser (@Slesss_) 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

  • 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.

  • SophieBur492 Sophie burlinson (@SophieBur492) reported from Sunderland, England

    For an iPhone 12 Pro meant to be 5G since November I’ve had this phone. Have i got any signs? Absolutely not. It’s now 3G @O2 bad crack.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TellingJasmine Jasmine Telling (@TellingJasmine) reported

    @O2 Hi, this is still a huge issue and therefore have decided to cancel my contract. I’ve tried calling numerous times but left on hold for ages and cannot move around the house when waiting as signal cuts out. Can you arrange for someone to call me please?

  • Burnside_5 Burnside (@Burnside_5) reported

    So @O2 will disable your account for no reason and without telling you, you call to get it re-enabled, raise a complaint and silence. Chase for an update on my complaint and get told that is is being dealt with internally and I will not be informed of the outcome 1/2

  • badassscotsman BigYin (@badassscotsman) reported

    oppo even sent me emails telling me this. But @O2 refuses to accept it and blames me or the phone. But they did however blame the shop assistant that sold me the contract and offered me 50% off my next bill. But I still am having the problems

  • bigwows Bigwows is elsewhere too (🦣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿)💚🤍💜 (@bigwows) reported

    @theroyalfactor @O2 Have never yet used one of those signal checkers that was remotely accurate. 5G is very spotty here too, but 4G is mostly ok so I’m not too fussed.

  • katewelburn Kate Welburn (@katewelburn) reported

    @O2 I’ve tried to contact you via phone too upgrade my airtime contract but each time I call I’m on hold for over 45mins with no answer. Can you help?

  • Soozealooze CES (@Soozealooze) reported

    @O2 7 hours over the past week spent on the phone or talking on webchat to go through the pac code process and you've made mistakes every step of the way. you've now blocked me from logging into my O2 and your solution is to buy a contract off you?! crazy. worst service ever.

  • daztroon Daz (@daztroon) reported

    @O2 any chance of some data coverage in Troon. Can’t even load a page never mind watch a video.

  • shineyshappy Malcolm Shine (@shineyshappy) reported

    @virginmedia B45 8NR has had no mobile signal for over 3 days. Virgin customers received no prior notice but neighbours on @O2 told on Friday: "To improve your local network and help keep everyone connected, we're carrying out essential work in B487DD.......06 Mar and finish on 12 Mar".

  • davepakey71 Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported

    @O2 Me hitting my phone as I don’t have a signal or at least 4 g across the uk on @o2 oh by the way nearly 3weeks still have a had a call back form customer services

  • Mistro4ndy Andy Hunter (@Mistro4ndy) reported

    Service from @O2 and #dpduk is disgusting. For someone to open my parcel from inner part, take out my new phone, take that and the cable, put it back in then deliver it looking like any other parcel and nothing is being done.
