    Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 my phone is saying no sim so I have zero signal or data to call or text you. Any chance of getting someone to give me a ring to sort out a new sim card?

  • kjgreigy
    Karen Greig (@kjgreigy) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 No 4G barely works! I never get through a phone call without it cutting out

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

    Kinda wonder why I use @O2 when their mobile signal in central Manchester is barely functioning. Continually timing out, drops connection 😡

    @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???

  • 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 devise as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • eagleeyedferret
    Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 3/3 only conclusion I could reach is that your call centre staff are under pressure to make more calls and now routinely disconnect customer calls after a period of making no progress. What do you think??

  • jasonpeachey1

    What is goin on with @O2 phone signal constantly dropping an 4G\5G practically non existent!!! 😳

    Hi @O2 I’m both a virgin media customer and have a pay monthly sim with O2 and i am struggling to sign up to Volt! Help!

  • sonnisamosa
    Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes it says 4G, I have no idea what’s going on. Is there an issue certain areas possibly?

    @O2 what’s going on with the signal in Manchester, absolutely crap. Can hardly get on @SkySportsNews

  • clare_jeffs
    Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, England

    They told her they are affiliated with @O2 and apparently do not offer cooling off periods. How can they miss-sell to a vulnerable lady with a brain injury and not cancel it. @plandotcom DISGUSTING.

  • liammcdon97
    Liam McDonald (@liammcdon97) reported from Stockport, England

    £40 a month for @O2 and can't even get any signal majority of the time. Absolute jokers.

    Luke Marsden (@LukeAMarsden) reported from Oldham, England

    @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

  • mars_silva_
    Márcio Silva (@mars_silva_) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 just wondering about your masts in Ashton-under-Lyne which have been failing for a few days now. Data is almost never working this week, and I have no other way of accessing the internet

  • kurtyoafc
    Kurt Andrew (@kurtyoafc) reported from Middleton, England

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

    Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported 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

  • BlennerK

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

    @kokeshimum @O2 It's terrible all over the North, O2 have got gradually worse now all the help moved abroad. After 25 yrs I'm leaving going to Movistar in Canaries.

  • SimonRPoulton
    Simon Poulton (@SimonRPoulton) reported

    Absolutely horrendous treatment of my wife by @O2 . This isn’t even a post to get something moving, already raised to the complaints team, and they’re doubling down on trapping her in a new contract while not supplying her the service she ordered. Terrible customer service!

  • Ned_Zep
    Ned Zeppelin (@Ned_Zep) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 I live in Bolton but support Huddersfield. I've stopped taking my phone to matches because the signal is so bad. The DAB signal for Radio Leeds is appalling as well.

  • joeeast96
    Joe (@joeeast96) reported

    @O2 hello, I’m trying to sign in to my account/update password but I’m not receiving any emails to update password after I select “forgot password”! Can I have some assistance please

  • synceduk
    Steven (@synceduk) reported

    Hi, I have recently joined @O2 on PAYG and topped up and ported my number in. Why am I getting an error when trying to log in to Priority followed by a text message telling me to top up to continue enjoying Priority? I am a new customer.

  • sargeant_gail
    beijinggail (@sargeant_gail) reported

    @O2 Well you’ve taken 8 hrs to respond to this - absolutely appalling customer service!!!

  • Kez_FAAFO
    Kerri (@Kez_FAAFO) reported

    @O2 my phon3 has been saying emergency calls only for the last 2 days ! I've reset the handset multiple times & taken the sim card out its still not working! I put the sim in my partners phone & it said the same thing, its a pay as you go sim card it has no credit. Never had this

  • Brexit_Refugee
    Brexit Refugee (@Brexit_Refugee) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 One thing that bugs me in UK is the terrible signal. Next thing is if you have an “open reach” router it reserves 30% of your bandwidth for broadcasting a public 5G hotspot onto the street for Open Reach customers using the WiFi hotspot app…. Utter con.

  • Watch_n_Wait
    Martin Lee (@Watch_n_Wait) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Listen to any talk radio show and the regularity with which they "lose" guests and callers is embarrassing, and nearly all down to dodgy mobile connections. Sadly Brits gave up a really decent landline system for the "convenience" of mobile without thinking about quality.
