    @O2 literally tried for 3 days to get through to you to see if my address change had gone through. 3 f*cking days. What a heap of crap this service is.

    Hey @O2! 👋👋👋 You are really starting to make me angry. Why is my internet connection very slow, even when on 4G. I cannot deal with the pausing videos, apps and webpages not loading. Sort it out!

  • JonnaAnderson Jonathan Anderson (@JonnaAnderson) reported from Beamish, England

    @O2 I’m having issues with my calls connecting at the moment - every time someone is calling me when I’m answering the call is failing. I’m having to use WhatsApp to make and receive calls! Any idea how I can fix it?

  • craig_donnison Craig Donnison (@craig_donnison) reported from Ashington, England

    This issue has been happening intermittently again over the last week or so. Beyond infuriating. Sort it out, @O2.

    @O2 why is the priority app down? Not good when you have priority tickets on sale at 10am !!!
