    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 😡

    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.

  • gazza_d

    @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.

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

    @O2 Shouldn't need a DM for you to check you're replying correctly to the relevant posts. Don't insinuate I'm to blame for your poor customer service.

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

    @O2 I know you have a status & outage checker you're missing the point. RE O2 Priority app issue - last time it happened, you advised it was a known issue at your end also effecting other customers. I want you to thoroughly check to see if it's a known issue at your end again.

    @O2 I need to cancel 2 expired phone contracts on my account before my new o2 phone contracts become active but can't get to use the contact o2 online chat. Can you sort this for me?

  • luketerenceb
    Luke Terence Batten (@luketerenceb) reported from Washington, England

    @O2 I’m really not happy with my phone contract it’s far to expensive would like to cancel free of charge !!!!! Fed up of this bad customer service

  • 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.

  • scoobyhugh8

    @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

  • 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.

  • MarkMowbrayNE
    Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    Does anyone use @vodafone in the Northumberland area? Is it any good? I'm currently on @O2 but looking to switch networks as O2 are being extremely greedy with large price hikes on their already expensive network.

  • 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.

    @O2 You’re joking…right?! It’s not a handset issue - it’s a rubbish network and infrastructure issue!!

    Why is the link to the pre sale for Thomas Rhett not working on priority @O2

    Deano... (@Frugal_ways) reported

    @humantorch1036 @O2 @Ofcom Unless an issue is happening to a certain number of people, watchdogs, official bodies, etc. Do nothing. So they just plod along, counting numbers, with little to offer. Also, there is no such thing as, "An independent watchdog/official body" - they are in each other's pockets.

    Is it worth actually playing Spin to Win? Never win anything and makes me depressed on a Monday. What a shite "game". Fire whoever came up with the concept. @O2

  • garynetchells
    𝕁𝕠𝕣𝕕𝕪 (@garynetchells) reported

    What is it with the infrastructure of mobile networks in the UK when you can get a signal - at all on a train?! Why is that? Why in 2026 with a digital generation can I not access an email on a train? It’s ridiculous @O2 @VodafoneUK @EE

  • Lewis_1417
    Lewis (@Lewis_1417) reported

    Hey @O2. You have the worst account management system of any phone provider I have ever had the displeasure of using. Why is there no way to change the default payment method. Instead you just send threatening texts saying I’m going to be cut off.

  • circuit_k
    Circfruit (@circuit_k) reported

    @willmcgugan @O2 when they have too many customers, they stop caring. not only mobile operators, all of them service providers.

    @O2 trying to cancel my mums phone contract who has gone into a nursing home with dementia to be told you need to speak to mum. I explained again my mum has dementia to be told will need power of attorney. Your staff are so insensitive at such a difficult traumatic time.

  • xxxxminniex
    Minnie (@xxxxminniex) reported

    @Christo44671940 @O2 Thank you, O2 did they put a £5 cap on but it still continued to charge lots over this. Not sure how or why but it’s bad because they told her it was her sending picture messages off the WiFi and didn’t tell her it’s a scam. They even have an link to check premium numbers on the bill so I’m almost positive the call handlers knew it wasn’t my mum doing this herself and it says received texts and not ones she had sent!
