    @O2 Hi! Just wondering I have damage insurance on my phone and I’m aware it covers accessories aswell, can you claim for accessories by its self or does it have to be as part of a phone claim too?

  • chellehewison Michelle Hewison (@chellehewison) reported from Whitley Bay, England

  • everstlover200 everstlover200 (@everstlover200) reported

    @GarethBattersby @boxofnumbers @O2 Phone is upside down you cant see who's calling lol and if your busy your phones going to be on mute or vibrate so you will know who's phoned or who's texted without having to check the phone itself with dnd on your screen stays off on most phones when calls come in

  • RosieJa36631076 Rosie James (@RosieJa36631076) reported

    @O2 I should have to keep switching my phone on airplane mode, or off and on, to get signal. My friends and family have no problems without having to do this. Is it because I now have a 5G phone but my simcard is a bit dated and not 5G? Do I need to upgrade my simcard?

  • Ktbeevo ktbee (@Ktbeevo) reported

    Trying to decide who has the worst customer services. @TalkTalk or @O2 Absolute **** show trying to get anything sorted. The standard dm us isn’t washing with me. You still don’t do anything…. Shame on you

  • OliviaACleary Olivia-Anne Cleary (@OliviaACleary) reported

    @O2 It's been two months and I still can't access wifi on the London underground. Always could before I got a new phone. Have followed all suggested steps. Have also tried (and failed) to get help on the app via the chat with an agent option. Can you offer any assistance? Thanks.

  • veiledevolution Arousa Naqvi (@veiledevolution) reported

    @O2 Been there done that. I've spoke to the network team many times to no resolve. I've asked for a replacement sim myself! Its beyond a joke now.

  • TuckeyUK Tuckey (@TuckeyUK) reported

    @O2 So I ordered a sim only contract with you around 3-4 weeks ago, then found I had no reception at work so spoke to an advisor who said it was ok to give me a PAC code and cancel as it was within 14 days. Then you go and Debit my bank account £260. Idiots.

  • everstlover200 everstlover200 (@everstlover200) reported

    @GarethBattersby @boxofnumbers @O2 Everyone calls it innovative yet they really aren't the iPhone 11 to 14 are basically the same phone small minor upgrades and if their phones are supposed to last a long time why's most upgrading to the latest ones all the time and having problems with previous when new are out

  • JackParkerNo1 Jack Parker (@JackParkerNo1) reported

    @O2 I see you don't read your fb dms. Is there a reason I'm not getting the signal I'm paying for???
