    @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 😜

    Is a cellular Apple Watch looked to the network provider you get it from? I have a Stainless Steel Series 6 that I got from @O2 that I no longer need since I got my Ultra from O2.

  • cimota
    Matt Johnston (@cimota) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @O2 Which was apparent from my first tweet. I’m not asking for you to intervene. I was asking when are you going to develop some principles and stop selling your customers details to bad players like @Aerial_Direct

  • cimota
    Matt Johnston (@cimota) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @O2 2) They’ve endured under this contract for 30 months (exploited by salesmen) and it finally ends in April so they’ve asked me to help them. I went into our local O2 store and they told me it was a 33 month contract, wasn’t actually with them and there would be a termination fee

  • internetsense
    Philip I Wilson (@internetsense) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @LauraJ2803 @SarahSherry1 @O2 This is criminal activity I was charged £2 per day by #Three Which is bad enough Truth is like petrol/oil/electric/tv you can't change as they're all at it!

  • 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!!

    @O2 Don't care about Peter Kay tickets but I can't even get my Friday Greggs treat 🙈🙈🙈

  • 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?

  • cimota
    Matt Johnston (@cimota) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @Aerial_Direct @O2 I’ve been onto your customer services. They refused to tell me how much it would cost to buy out this awful contract. Threatened termination fees from @o2. A retentions team will be in contact. 🙄 My family member *thought* she was with @o2 - misdirection from you of course. 🤮

  • liznangel3
    Liz Cullinane (@liznangel3) reported from Balmoral, Northern Ireland

    @EmmandJDeSouza Burnfoot, Donegal house in Derry UK Workshop Donegal, Irl @O2 flicking from roaming to home constantly, useless turning it off roaming I'd never get any work done👿

    Kudos to @O2 for customer service today. Recommend going via app ‘Start a Conversation’ section.

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

    Is it just me or has @O2 phone signal went to the absolute dogs?

  • Utter_Dil_Emma

    I assume my bus home crashed and I died because hell is surely dealing with @O2 customer service chat for a ******* hour and a half.

    So I've been trying to top up my my phone via voucher for the last 2hrs on @O2 via the 4444 number but that's saying "they have a fault and are fixing the problem", so now I can't top up my phone to renew my bundle

  • rebeccaann1989
    rebecca ann jarvis (@rebeccaann1989) reported

    @O2 I've tried but it still won't let me use my rewards as that's all I want to do is to use the rewards I have without having to set up several ID and keep trying to sign in, it was way simpler when I could just go into the app and redeem my rewards

  • HarrietSergeant
    Harriet Sergeant (@HarrietSergeant) reported

    .What’s happened @O2? Since merging with Virgin, topping up data has gone from two taps to a Kafkaesque ordeal. App requires an email that never arrives. Phone numbers unrecognised. Anyone found a workaround - carrier pigeon perhaps?

  • nikiloveshexie
    nikiloveshexie (@nikiloveshexie) reported

    @O2 can you help? I’ve tried a few times to swap my SIM card from o2 to virgin Megvolt deal and it’s so complicated. I’ve followed the instructions and called a few times but now it’s locked me out for 30 mins! Help!

  • DBposer
    tom (@DBposer) reported

    @O2 ever since you merged with @virginmedia your service is ******* shite, sort it out

    @O2 @virginmedia has anyone else experienced a further decline in customer care since O2 was taken over by the dreadful Virgin Group?

  • cryptoesim
    CryptoeSIM.io (@cryptoesim) reported

    @ungodlywheesa @O2 That's a bummer! What phone are you using? Most phones from 2020+ support eSIM now. If yours doesn't, it might be time for an upgrade — and when you do, we've got you covered in 190+ countries

  • kbushnell1975
    Kieren Bushnell (@kbushnell1975) reported

    @O2 Waste of time doing so, and you sending me a copy and paste apology every time doesn't cut it anymore. I need everyone to know how awful you truly are.

  • faheem_mira
    Faheem Mira (@faheem_mira) reported

    @O2 why is it so difficult to add an international bolt on with you? O2 app doesn’t seem to give it as an option. 2202 says it’s for bolt ons but then just gives options for different things. I’ve required this service a few times for business and each time it’s a headache
