    @Girlzmum Very poor service from @O2 especially to a front line worker in the NHS #NHS who needs her phone.

  • StephenScarth Stephen Scarth (@StephenScarth) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @O2 Hi having problems making and receiving phone calls on a IPhone SE #O2

  • AskkeithInfo askkeith.info (@AskkeithInfo) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @O2 Reece in your forestside store was a legend I ran through door cut off from world and all sorted for phone and lap top in 12 mins a credit to public service he’ll be snapped up by someone soon give him a pay rise and pat on back

  • Deadandgone70 Joel Ferguson (@Deadandgone70) reported from Newtownards, Northern Ireland

    Glad I’m leaving @O2. Trying to recycle my phone and according to CEX, TescoMobile and Game the small mark on my phone wouldn’t be a problem. But send my phone off and they say they’d give 50% of the value. Jokers like. Even in store they said it wouldn’t be a problem

  • BrendanB2 Brendan Bonner (@BrendanB2) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 I wouldn’t recommend anyone buying online and redeeming your phone. Go to the store, you can’t trust any of the online and virtual services. Was a handling getting phone set up, getting help and they only give you 50% of the value they say (no matter how good your phone is).

  • McGuinnessKevin Kevin McGuinness (@McGuinnessKevin) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @o2 any chance you can sort out the masts in Belfast.. really slow connections and dropped connections, I’m even with o2 (was with you when it was BT Cellnet) I’m with sky who use your network but I know of o2 customers having the same issues. #o2network

  • leannereid1988 leane reid (@leannereid1988) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @O2 in o2 shop in newtownards the 3 fellas in the shop couldn't have bin any nicer and very helpful even when the problem was my own fault! Saved me a trip to Samsung! Def need a pay rise!! Thank you =)

  • JeremyAdamsNI Jeremy Adams (@JeremyAdamsNI) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Great customer service @O2. Placed an online order at 6.30pm last night and arrived 4.45pm in Belfast.

  • columcoyle Colum Coyle (@columcoyle) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @angelcosta78 @DPDgroup_news @O2 @AppleSupport I’ve sent a complaint to O2 asking for a refund of the three days I’m missing out on my device plan. They’ve already charged me!

  • columcoyle Colum Coyle (@columcoyle) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @angelcosta78 @DPDgroup_news @O2 @AppleSupport Just checked and its now saying the same for me! Apparently it takes a full 26 hours to get from Birmingham to Down 🙄

  • JeremyAdamsNI Jeremy Adams (@JeremyAdamsNI) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 AirPods and 🎅 is looking after them! Again fantastic service.

  • thebaldfather Hugh Pollock (@thebaldfather) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 I am amazed by the lack of support from your network. Trying for a week now to get help and your help and advice is pathetic when you eventually answer.

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 you guys got a number to your payments team? I need to speak to someone. Automated IVR is poor.

  • UberGeekFanboy Fanboy (@UberGeekFanboy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 trying to phone through to return a phone and keep getting cut off? Wtf.

  • Jay_McB Jason Brown (@Jay_McB) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia come on I have 4 Sims with VM. Even put something together online. Will @virgin customers be getting any rewards or paybacks like @O2 had to do when they kept getting network problems 😜

  • DAVIDBUZZ2904 DAVIDBUZZ2904 (@DAVIDBUZZ2904) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @TalkTalk No the @TalkTalk number was 03451720088 And @O2 give me 03451720091 The email number was 03451720032 No success at all very bad customer service so far !!!

  • salexander835 Stuart A (@salexander835) reported from Holywood, Northern Ireland

    @O2 I can't get logged into my account through the app or via the Web. Is there an issue?

  • EmGymMum Em (@EmGymMum) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 @KLogan1977 Update: So @O2 asked me to DM details of the issue. I sent it hours ago, yet still no response. I wonder if there is an intention to help or it is an illusion of good customer service. Nor have I got promised call back after 22 hours from the CS phoneline. Not good!!

  • kkanecelt kierankane (@kkanecelt) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @o2 is the worst shittiest network I've ever been on in my life

  • MrInnesSmith MrInnesSmith (@MrInnesSmith) reported

    @O2 I am. And I'm assuming this is an automated message as tonally, and in content, it fails to respond appropriately to my tweet. So again, what's @O2 's policy on cancelling contracts when a customer dies? Can you do better than Vodaphone? Do you do better than Vodaphone? Curious.

  • codeine_od Craig (@codeine_od) reported

    @O2 Currently abroad, and my O2 device isn’t connecting to any of the local networks. Support keeps asking me to remove my eSIM and try it in my partners device 🙈. Any help here please?

  • Casual_Aces Cormac (@Casual_Aces) reported

    @O2 My number hasn't moved over to O2 but I've lost signal on my old sim. Any ideas?

  • mhoney1234 Producer (@mhoney1234) reported

    thinking about getting a contract with @O2 ? DONT! Placed an order on Friday. 5 hours of phone calls later telling me to “stay in” your phone will be delivered despite the tracking saying DPD didn’t have the item - I’m still no further forward. Taken my money no issue though.

  • EmmaTaylerPro Emma Tayler (@EmmaTaylerPro) reported

    @O2 Not helped I’m afraid, still slow 😔

  • JoJo_P_87 ˜”*°•.˜”*°• JoJo •°*”˜.•°*”˜ (@JoJo_P_87) reported

    @O2 anyone going to help?

  • elenab6121 Elena (@elenab6121) reported

    @O2 why is the net work so bad I can’t even use my phone at all and nothing loads paying for something I can’t even use ?

  • SimonAlexxx Simon (@SimonAlexxx) reported

    @EE recommended upgrade is £20 more expensive than my current plan… looking after customers as always 🙄 @O2 or @VodafoneUK might be getting a new customer shortly! EE have zero loyalty benefits for its customers.

  • ben_is_god Ben Exotic (@ben_is_god) reported

    What grinds my gears is we went on a rural villa holiday to spain, middle of nowhere in the mountains. Full 4G & superfast internet. I live just outside a large town and can’t even make a call because of such poor signal. @O2 don’t even get me started on broadband! @OpenreachHelp

  • Kiszcat Kisz (@Kiszcat) reported

    Hey @O2 I need to ask a question but I can't get the chat function to work. It's taking me round in circles between the My O2 app and browser. Can anyone help me?
