  • pherlopolus Phullup (@pherlopolus) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    Twice in 2 days I come across an epos system that isn't fit for purpose. Small cafe hadn't got bacon on the breakfast options, and @O2 not being able to sell an existing customer 4 data Sim contracts, despite proving I was a director. Needed a letterhead!

    Hi @O2 I'm happy with my service and have used you for years. But if you fund #GBNews I will take my custom elsewhere. This country doesn't need yet more media bias. #DontFundGBNews

  • Emzzoxox Emily ✗ (@Emzzoxox) reported

    @O2 new iPhone 13 delivered Friday set up just over 24 hours ago but I’ve noticed it occasionally has black lines that flash on the screen when in use. I don’t particularly want to leave it if it’s faulty and it get worse further down the line.

  • MarkA7799 Mark Adams (@MarkA7799) reported

    how do I speak to a real person in @O2 customer services?

  • Emma25411728 Emma (@Emma25411728) reported

    Switched to @virginmedia and was told because I have an @O2 phone contract I’d get double my data.. all I get told from customer services is they will investigate and nothing happens 🙃

  • m333ruu1 Umair Ahmed (@m333ruu1) reported

    @O2 don’t trust this company worst company to engage with. Advisors are liars not trained properly at all usually results in them accusing you of being something or another. 5 days I’ve waited for a call from a manager. Still not heard anything.

  • missd1311 Janine (@missd1311) reported

    @O2 been on the phone an hour went through to the right department but he’s passed me through to customer services anyway!! Absolutely shocking !!!

  • DJBazMati Barry Brett (@DJBazMati) reported

    @O2 Thanks for replying. My biggest issue is that I need to receive text messages for 2FA in order to be able to log into my work services, but I cannot receive them at the moment. Can I access my text messages some other way, that doesn't require a mobile signal?

  • JoBoakes Jo (@JoBoakes) reported

    @O2 What’s going on with the network? Both myself and husband have lost signal almost simultaneously. No known issues in the area apparently…

  • Lisa45384506 Lisa (@Lisa45384506) reported

    @O2 can you share data with another o2 customer who has ran out or data?

  • lisa_jayne_b ⚫️Lisa Britton WearAMask GetTheJab 🇨🇾🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@lisa_jayne_b) reported

    @O2 I’ve sent a couple of ***, and you are now not answering. I’m really dissatisfied with your service.

  • stevewoody99 Steve Woodward (@stevewoody99) reported

    @O2 just wanted to let you know your service and signal is the worst. Struggle to download anything if not on Wi-Fi. 4G 5G it doesn’t matter O2 is horrendous. Back to @EE I think atleast there you get the service you pay for
