  Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported 10 seconds ago from Manchester, England

  Always good finding 3 unknown direct debits to @O2 2 months *after* reporting fraud, especially after they refused to refund the charges to gambling websites I’d never even heard of

  Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported 6 minutes ago 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

  @AndyOxon @O2 @virginmedia I've been waiting five months. Complaint gone external now!

  Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported 9 minutes ago 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.

  @O2 is the signal down in Salford? Data isn’t working and the signal is either none or just one

• 
  Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported 17 minutes ago from Urmston, England

  @O2 Hello, my data hasn’t worked since yesterday. I’ve reset the network settings and my phone. Any ideas?

  @O2 Work was meant to be completed last week! Do I move to a better mobile company or are you going to improve the service???

• 
  Cheryl Manley (@CherylManley14) reported 19 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @O2 due a phone call from an engineer looking into my account at the very latest today. Rang in, lost signal, advisor had to call me back. Still nothing but yet bet you’ll take payment on time for poor service

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 23 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @O2 I messaged earlier and you managed to help me with my query, I’ve since sent another DM but have not received any reply. I messaged as my husband lost his phone so you blocked it for me. It has now been returned by the taxi driver so he requires the phone unlocking please

  James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported 24 minutes ago 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 devise as I’ve just been aboard and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

• 
  🇬🇷Atlas Sailing🇬🇧 (@AtlasSailing) reported 29 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  @O2 @o2 Your service in Bolton area has been terrible over recent weeks to the point I am considering leaving. When will this improve??? #badservice #telephone

  ᴅᴏʙɪʀ ᴍɪᴀʜ 🐝 دوبر محمد مياه (@dobirmiah) reported 33 minutes ago from Rochdale, England

  @O2 I’ve not had access to the network all day, what’s going on? It would have been good to be notified of issues. Really not happy 😠 I’m due for an upgrade, might have to@consider switching to another network

• 
  James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported 39 minutes ago 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.

  Kurt Andrew (@kurtyoafc) reported 40 minutes ago from Middleton, England

  There are serious mobile phone signal issues in Middleton and it needs sorting and ******* properly @O2

• 
  Violet (@violetibeh) reported 43 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

• 
  Chris (@Chrisg3985) reported 43 minutes ago from Leigh, England

  Anyone else’s #O2Priority gone down? @O2 was fine an hour ago

• 
  Nick Power-Jordan (@Nickcarrick) reported 48 minutes ago from Moss Nook, England

  What's up with @O2 app just keeps.sending security links and can't login

• 
  Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported 50 minutes ago 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!

• 
  ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported 57 minutes ago 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

  Izzy_Rascal2020 (@Izzy_Rascal2020) reported 6 minutes ago

  @O2 another company with the most frustrating Customer Service system, involving heavy reliance on automated systems that send you round in circles, that don’t contribute to efficiency in solving customers problems, but that only serve to wasting customers time.

  W (@NWIWC01) reported 8 minutes ago

  Does anyone know how I can swap phone providers ASAP @O2 hasnt had signal where I work for weeks and ive 2 phones I cant ring or text anyone on constantly. Incase of a work emergency im knackered.

• 
  Shana Hendry (@Happyengland79) reported 15 minutes ago

  Looks like it's Ombudsman time this evening @O2. Two of them in fact. Can't speak to anyone at O2 as English is not their first language, totally unacceptable! No refund means the problem was never resolved! All you do is lie and I have the proof! #evidenceforombudsman

• 
  Yeo (@MissWhyOh) reported 17 minutes ago

  @O2 after 20+ years I’m waiting for my number to port to another network. It’s been one thing after the other over the years - poor signal, poor service, the issue with the iPhone XR that you dragged out for months, and the very sneaky price increase

• 
  stacey (@punksrep) reported 18 minutes ago

  please change the blue monday’s back or at least let us keep spinning until we get 3 matching prizes as this is now stupid and pointless @O2

• 
  Stevie Brown (@SASBroons) reported 21 minutes ago

  @sky @O2 what are you planning to do to compensate customers who have suffered a drop in service due to "upgrades" no service to many in EH26 Penicuik. The timescale getting longer 😤

• 
  Pete Ascroft (@ascroftpete) reported 21 minutes ago

  @EnglandRugby @O2 No Braken and Bamber is disappointing. Can see that pack getting beaten up big time, no good for an already broken T Curry who could do with a rest!

• 
  Clare Rhodes (@SmokeyBear588) reported 22 minutes ago

  @O2 No need to take any conversation offline thanks, I just wanted to call out the poor conduct. Your agent admitted the information he was pedalling was incorrect.

  Elle Louise (@ellsbells181x) reported 23 minutes ago
