    Top tip - don’t join @O2 - incompetent and useless! First no 4G, now no signal or data at all 🤯

  • gingio Shane (@gingio) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @jgfoxy @O2 @ThreeUK Good choice! I love being with 3 and find my signal is much better than that on my work phone which is o2.

  • jamcole88 🇬🇧Jamie🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@jamcole88) reported from Panteg, Wales

    Currently with @EE with no/very low signal at home address! Who wants to send me sim cards so I can see what network to change to! @O2 @o2 @ThreeUKSupport @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK

  • LisardoVivas Lisardo Vivas (@LisardoVivas) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 @tig1985 I’m in cardiff with same issue

  • Statto1927 Simon Hiscocks (@Statto1927) reported from Barry, Wales

    @O2 It’s CF11 8AZ. ardiff City Stadium. My point is that I can hardly get any connectiveity with a 4G signal showing. Someone sat next to me with EE can connect. Granted it’s a sports stadium but this was 60m before kick off with barley anyone in there. Happens every match 1/2

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @teamIPSE Without a doubt! And phone signal! It is appalling how bad the signal is in parts of the UK outside of London! I am 4 minutes from the Cardiff city centre with no signal! #howareyoumeanttorunabusiness @o2networks @O2 @giffgaff

  • gavinlew Gavin Lewandowski (@gavinlew) reported from Butetown Community, Wales

    @ee need to kick a few cells around the Cardiff arena tonight very poor 4g coverage had to switch to your neighbours at @o2 for connectivity

  • jamieriddell Jamie Riddell (@jamieriddell) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hey @O2 who can I talk to about unlocking a phone. I've paid up and out of contact. Online form says no because of too many attempts ( no idea what my customer service code was) but I have all my account details.

  • callumcrowley Callum Crowley (@callumcrowley) reported from Liswerry, Wales

    @O2 customer service are an absolute joke - can’t wait to change my provider #pathetic

  • lelebodenham leanne bodenham (@lelebodenham) reported from Magor, Wales

    @BLapham_8 @O2 All day yesterday and today I’ve had problems x

  • Welsh_PA Mark Edwards (@Welsh_PA) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @PA_Stacey Oh yes @O2 love to go OTT on bill notification. It’s a shame they don’t put more emphasis on sorting out their weak/phantom 4G signal 📡 #priorities

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @RobBruceK @ThreeUK @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK No awful. Just spent 5 days with no data/calls due ti Insufficient bandwidth. My family and friends who were with O2/BT/Vodaphone had no problems. Worst ever. So regret leaving previous provider last month. Their coverage checker is inaccurate too

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 This has always been an issue. We are with giffgaff whom I believe use your signal. I have tried everything. I have even bought a booster, but the reception coming into the booster isn’t enough to even make the booster work. Very frustrating. I have to sit in a window 4 reception

  • pwilliamsevents Paul Williams Events (@pwilliamsevents) reported from Tongwynlais, Wales

    Totally disappointed with @O2 customer service. A number transfer from a consumer account to business took 8 days when I was told it would take 24 hours. 3 phone calls to customer service and still not 100% sorted. #totallycrapexperience

  • StephenADwyer The Dwyer Identify (F) (@StephenADwyer) reported from Caerleon, Wales

    @O2 No signal for two , now on the third day , all your help lines etc are busy , no support or help , not the best customer service but you will still take my money , not impressed at all

  • CJLittlemore Callum James Littlemore 🔶 (@CJLittlemore) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 I woke up this morning to find I’ve been totally cut off. I can’t make calls, send texts or use my mobile data. All of this is kinda important for my work as I’m self employed - I can’t call your customer service line to see what the issue is. Can you look into it please.

  • pwilliamsevents Paul Williams Events (@pwilliamsevents) reported from Tongwynlais, Wales

    @jolilford @O2 Your kidding me!!! I have contacted customer services 3 or 4 times. Shocking service

  • Rhian1975 Rhian Langham (@Rhian1975) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 shocking attitude of customer service rep. Please get in touch.

  • Simonthesmoggie Smoggie till i die (@Simonthesmoggie) reported

    @O2 Virgin media has by far the worst customer care ever, cancelled the tv and they still charged for 2 months and took 3 months for refund.

  • LloydChrxs Chris (@LloydChrxs) reported

    .@O2 I’ve noticed my network connection (5G) has significantly dropped, ever since switching to sim-only from contract. Why is this? I’m still paying for a service here.

  • jayrocks_666 Jay (@jayrocks_666) reported

    @O2 Couldn't give a **** about Miley Cyrus. I pay you for a phone signal and you can't provide that. Can't be bothered to answer messages or the phone and lie to me via text message.
