    Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 when are you going to fix the mobile signal in Manchester? Hardly anything in the city centre and I need to rely on Wi-Fi. Definitely not worth what I’m currently paying for it

  • jessslee_
    Jess (@jessslee_) reported from Walkden, England

    @O2 hi, my mobile date isn’t working and hasn’t been for some hours. No issues in area, and everything looks normal, please help 🥱

    @O2 are there any issues currently in the Oldham area? Can't connect to the internet

    @O2 sort your **** signal out, £70 a month for this bullshit

  • GoaterBilly
    Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England

    @O2 disappointing that o2 treat us like **** after 20 years as both a personal and business customer. Seems they’re happy for us to walk away. Clueless customer service. No attempt to help us.

  • JMcKnighty
    ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported from Manchester, England

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

    Why does @O2 refuse to give you internet connection whenever there’s more than 4 people near you… Surely there’s enough infrastructure in Manchester to support 4G?! Every single time I’m in a city centre, my data just doesn’t work. It’s a joke

  • kellyvmckeown
    Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 when are you gonna allow people to get back into the priority app this tickets thing has been a right **** show

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @O2 your network coverage across the UK is awful: there’s about one street in Manchester where I get a useable 4G signal and nowhere else. Definitely isn’t my device as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hey - I have checked the guide. It’s not my device as it worked 100% better on a recent trip to France. It’s not the environment as this is something I experience everywhere (in Leicester, in Manchester, on trains, at festivals) - but your signal checker says I have good 4G.

    @O2 @purpledolphins7 They didn't help me. They didn't apply the increase in speed. In fact they said I could have 1gig for £30 extraper month. False advertising and liars!

  • GoaterBilly
    Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England

    @O2 which idiot authorises sending out texts at 4 o’clock in the morning to update me about my phone order? Get real.The person needs punching or sacking or both!

    @O2 your customer service is actually the worst

  • Dr_Bass
    Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi, my 4G signal over the last few months has been dreadful. I’m currently sitting with 3 bars of 4G and waiting about 10-20 seconds for a picture to download. I thought it was just me but seen plenty others complaining.

    @angelak2271 @O2 I've clicked the link they gave me and it said there's a mast nearby that's not working. But it seems to be a problem across the country

  • JacquiDarling
    Jacqueline (@JacquiDarling) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 known issue affecting quality of calls and 4G reduced to 3 G. Spoke with your Helpdesk who are aware of issue in BL3 area but no fix date. Why am i paying for a service i cant use. Been told to use wifi or hotspot. Been happening fir weeks now.

    Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported

    @BluesnJazzxx @O2 They have known about this issue for a few months now but don’t want to take responsibility and actually fix it. It’s the same on the website too. Someone seriously messed up and it would seem that O2 don’t care. They have become prawns. No backbone and full of shite

  • kath_moonlight
    Kath Moonlight (@kath_moonlight) reported

    @O2 @O2 It’s the MyO2 app/account. I’m currently in Mexico with my UK O2 Pay As You Go SIM. my mobile number appears to be linked to a different email address, so I can’t link it to my Virgin Media O2 ID or top up. I can’t sign in because the O2 website/app blocks access from Mexico.

    @o2 @virgin @virginmedia CEO LUTZ SCHUELER received a call from your office regarding my complaint and when I asked a direct question rather than answer your representative went silent before abruptly disconnected the call with no warning. Great customer service.

  • lmclells90
    Lauren McLellan (@lmclells90) reported

    @O2 I need to make a formal complaint over appalling customer service over fraudulent activity on my account. I've tried endlessly to resolve this since it first came to light to no avail. O2 confirmed they would stop my direct debit to avoid the £286 bill leaving my account

    @wheat_daddy @O2 EE shocking signal here in IP 22, dropped off at the beginning of harvest and not come back. Maybe now children back at school it will but not holding my breath!

  • Loatesy95
    STEVEN LOATES (@Loatesy95) reported

    @O2 I’ve travelled all over the place this year and I’ve just started noticing how frequent it drops off. Motorways, town centres, the whole area around my house. Not something I had issues with before but this year it seems to be getting worse
