    @joe_fush @O2 I've been trying to log into my @O2 account and you keep sending me text messages with codes on to log me in, but with absolutely zero signal I can not receive the codes to access my account 🥴

    Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes the original problem is still not resolved. Can you DM me please to sort it out as I’m not wasting any more time with your shocking overseas call centres. Have you not realised by now they are a false economy?

    @O2 why is the signal in #Middleton so poor??? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking signal. I know loads of people wanting to change supplier #notgood #sortitout

    @O2 Why are you refusing a contract to a new customer just because they don't have a credit score? Person working full time with a good pay, bank account. Why refusing a contract?

  • kingpak93
    Paul King (Kingy) (@kingpak93) reported from Glossop, England

    @O2 Have changed phones and need a micro sim card. Have PAYG with credit so want to keep same number and credit I have. Ordered a sim card online a week ago and nothing has arrived. Can you help please? New phone sat unused as can’t put standard size sim card in it.

    @O2 your customer service is actually the worst

  • 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

  • BlennerK
    Kathryn Blennerhassett (@BlennerK) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @O2 is there a problem with the network? My calls aren’t going through.

  • SteveVanDang
    Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported from Stockport, England

    Welp @O2 support was great tellin me no better deals,tho new customers get massively better deals & the signal in my area should be good 🤷. #Pac requested, got a @VOXI_UK Sim for half the price, better signal, more perks. 16 years brand loyalty with o2, was worth squat to o2.cya

  • Gsd1Omara
    Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 why is the signal strength in #Middleton?? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking!! There’s loads of people wanting to change supplier

  • kea11y
    Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

    𝐀𝐃𝐙 (@ad_moran4) reported

    Very frustrating that after being a loyal customer of @EE for over 25 years the best deal they can do me is £73 a month for the new iPhone 17 when @O2 can me the same deal for £57 a month. Loyalty means nothing these days ! 😡

  • larrythehook
    Riemenschneider’s Horse (@larrythehook) reported

    @O2 I’ve had to rejoin EE. Number porting as we speak. O2 customer service an absolute embarrassment. Cost me £20 + having to drive 40 mins each way to nearest O2 store to be told nothing could be done to help me. I will be posting on a daily basis to AVOID O2 until I get refunded 👎

  • alslhvc

    @O2 you charged me x2 for my bill this month and I can’t access my account or your website for contact support?

  • XxSammie_89xX
    Samantha♥️ (@XxSammie_89xX) reported

    @O2 No service what so ever, WiFi at home sadly that's useless when your child's school can't even phone you! No 4g...no one can call, you need to reimburse your customers for 10 days when they are paying for a service they arent even receiving

  • ad_moran4
    𝐀𝐃𝐙 (@ad_moran4) reported

    @gethinbach @O2 Gethin thank you so much for your comment I really do appreciate it and I can’t be doing with bad service / reception it drives me mad. I think I will end up staying with EE to be honest.

  • JordanP__25

    @ad_moran4 @EE @O2 O2 is absolutely awful , I had so many issues with them , I’ve finally moved too EE much better. There customer service is atrocious

    @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!

  • Mandygriffin

    @O2 weeks of dropped calls, poor data and your 5 days fix a week ago is now 5 June. Not good enough

  • 95Humaad

    Can't wait to get out of this @O2 contract. The signal is **** and it don't even work at all in one town

  • SophiePrestonHa
    Cllr Sophie Preston-Hall ECC Rochford North (@SophiePrestonHa) reported

    Is anyone else getting absolutely inundated with calls from an @O2 call centre lately? I’m getting 5–10 calls a week at this point and it’s beyond frustrating. I’ve politely asked to be removed from their list around 9 or 10 times now and today, when I pointed out that I’ve repeatedly asked them to stop calling me, they simply slammed the phone down on me. How on earth do you actually get yourself removed from whatever ridiculous list these companies seem to have you on? Surely I can’t be the only one dealing with this nonsense?
