  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • rebeccajadetho1 Rebecca Thorne (@rebeccajadetho1) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @O2 It’s still not working

  • _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.

  • 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

  • andyphilipson Bilbo Gubbins (@andyphilipson) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Hey I just received a text claiming to be from yourselves saying there’s been a problem processing my bill and gives me a link to update my payment details. Pretty sure it’s fishing as my details haven’t changed. Can you confirm if I DM you a screenshot? Cheers.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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 🎃👻💀🙀🧟‍♂️ #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!

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • Michael84108464 Michael (@Michael84108464) reported

    @O2 can you give me the details of a senior manager who can issue my £105 refund that the customer service team on the phone cannot. You took the money without permission and have are making me wait 23 days to maybe get it back!

  • mickirook Mick 'n' Patch (@mickirook) reported

    @O2 I've had the same problem with EE, Vodafone and 3. They managed to sort the problem out within 4 hours. Three weeks later and you lot are still sending me demanding letters. Says a lot for your customer services. USELESS.

  • EmmaBlemings Emma Blemings💙🎓🇺🇦 (@EmmaBlemings) reported

    @Apple @O2 Please help! I have the iphone 13 (Dec) it's no longer charging and stating the battery isnt a genuine part. I purchased this brand new. I am disabled and I'm stuck in my dining room on a hospital bed unable to move so I desperatly need a working phone!

  • KirsteneCoyne kirstene (@KirsteneCoyne) reported

    @O2 Had no consistent signal since August last year, a mast went down on 1st January and not been fixed yet then a 2nd mast went down on Sunday so had no signal at home for 3 days. Not good enough for a big company.

  • SarahMarkworth Sarah Markworth (@SarahMarkworth) reported

    @O2 Your customer services are hideously incompetent. I have been transferred between the U.K., India and South Africa repeating the same request to cancel my accounts. After 49 mins I receive an email to say that it’s been passed to a manager to cancel. Criminal

  • didabrera Di Dabrera (@didabrera) reported from Littlehampton, England

    @O2 Trying to lengthen ring time on Samsung J4 Core. You gave me code that didn’t work, so not impressed. Seems it’s a big problem as many people having difficulty. Not impressed! Help please!

  • SteelTaylord Andy Taylor (Socially distant since 1987) (@SteelTaylord) reported

    Wish I could afford to buy myself out of my @O2 contract so I can switch to @EE. Constantly doing work in our area but the service gets worse and worse every day. We're at tuw point where I can't make a phone call from my own house. Pathetic.

  • combat_boot 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗮𝘁 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝘁 (@combat_boot) reported

    @O2 They say I should block the number. I explain the scammers rotate and use new numbers all the time. They do not understand this. And ask, as they have ‘fixed my problem’, if there is anything else they can do for me.

  • mickirook Mick 'n' Patch (@mickirook) reported

    @O2 I have just sent you another DM with the photo you requested. I discussed this matter with you via direct chat on your website, but to no avail. Can you get a human to help me out with this fraud matter please?

  • PaulIngle4 Paul (@PaulIngle4) reported

    @O2 how do I cancel the Prime Video I have on my account please?
