    @O2 why does this ALWAYS happen?! On hold for 30 mins only to be cut off when you tried to put me through to customer services!! Do you realise how infuriating that is why haven’t you called me back?!

  • Link2076 LinkoVitch (@Link2076) reported from Mossley, England

    @develogue @O2 Offering me Footie is an almost guaranteed way to make me not use your service :) and I still don’t need that much data :)

    Crying like a baby because #o2uk have totally ****** me over big time if my depression wasn’t bad enough @O2 they done a contract completely wrong and now I’m not able to get my iPad fixed 😭😭😭 I’m so upset

  • DWATKINSON Daniel Watkinson (@DWATKINSON) reported from Urmston, England

    So @O2 take the bar off my phone at 1700 hours and nearly 6 hours later the bar is still there even tho they told me it would be removed after 10 minutes, not like I need to use my phone or anything. I’ve only been a customer for 12 years and only spent about £5000 on them

  • tinytimwild Victor Wild (@tinytimwild) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 just to give Jake at o2 Oldham store a review as I don’t know where else to do it! First class service even with technological failing in the store helped my upgrade on 01/05/2021 helped me upgrade to iPhone 12pro max best customer service I’ve received from o2 thanks Jake

  • goughy84 Mark Lister (@goughy84) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 hi. I have Disney+ free till end month, when it then becomes £5.99. I saw on o2 offers I can add it for £3.99. Do I need to cancel and re add for the discount or will the £2 off auto apply when it becomes chargeable? Thanks

  • NayJDennis Nay 🍉 (@NayJDennis) reported from Partington, England

    @JD0NOHUE @O2 Yep, and as you know he doesn’t have the best manners, so you can only imagine how bad it was

  • malllmallll Mario Alghatta (@malllmallll) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 terrible service from you guys today. Thanks for the inconvenience...

  • Julio_Afonso522 Julio Afonso 🇲🇿 🇵🇹 🇪🇺🇨🇭 (@Julio_Afonso522) reported from Manchester, England

    @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?

  • AbiClarey Abi (@AbiClarey) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 I seem to never have any internet access anywhere, even when showing 4G nothing loads and no WhatsApp’s come through

  • DAbrahamNewman Dominic Abraham-Newman (@DAbrahamNewman) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 as a last resort I am tweeting following extremely poor support from your contact centre who I am not getting anywhere with despite numerous calls. I need urgent support with a query which has left me £119 out of pocket following fraudulent activity. Please contact me asap!

  • dtackley Daniel Tackley (@dtackley) reported from Bury, England

    Oh what a surprise. @O2 have yet again failed to take my direct debit payment. Every month I call and they assure me the next payment will be taken but it never has. Sheer incompetence!

  • penny62132920 Lorraine Glover (@penny62132920) reported from Strines, England

    @O2 want to pay off my devuce but cannot get through to customer servicei

  • 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

  • NayJDennis Nay 🍉 (@NayJDennis) reported from Partington, England

    @O2 awful service. Called to pay my device plan in full, was on the phone for >1 hr spoke to 5 different people in 5 different teams that couldn’t help (Customer Service, Retentions, Payments, Billing & Upgrades). My dog would’ve give a better service than what I received today!

  • atlr Alexander Robinson (@atlr) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi. Yes, she is unable to relay the code to me. I was also told that, in order to cancel the account entirely, I’d also have to relay a code. I registered a security word when I set the account up. I’ve provided this. But I am still unable to admin/run my account. This is crazy.

  • JimGilroy Jim🔻⚫️ 💙 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@JimGilroy) reported

    @O2 The problem is, I’ll never believe it if it were a genuine call from you guys now, so I hope you aren’t doing cold hard sales calling now.

  • JoHathaway Jo Hathaway (@JoHathaway) reported

    @O2 can you please explain why after 2 weeks, still have intermittent phone signal ? Cannot make or receive calls without the line cutting off / not connecting / not being able to hear the other caller

  • 6567Julia Julia.6567@gmail.com (@6567Julia) reported

    @O2 you staff in South Africa are dodgy. Mthulisi wants to game access to my account by changing details on it sign in and password. When I ask to speak to manager he refuses even when I explain I don't feel safe. I do not give permission and never will.

  • davidaak1991 (Insert Name Here) (@davidaak1991) reported

    @O2 I’d like to make a complaint. How best do I do this?

  • VModifiedMind Vince (@VModifiedMind) reported

    @O2 is there a particular reason that almost everywhere I go your network essentially doesn't work? Data often just sits there, may work a bit if I force 3G, but usually not. End up using another network almost every day. Only place it works well is home, where I don't need it!

  • BlueJaysBrummie luke weale (@BlueJaysBrummie) reported

    @O2 your mobile network coverage in Birmingham City Centre is appalling, please get it sorted. Also please update the mast situation online, as it's been showing as not working for months and engineers are clearly not already on the case!! #Birmingham #o2

  • babsc94 barbara (@babsc94) reported

    @GeorgieTheGeek @O2 That's the same here, some from here have done a petition and sent it to ombudsmen, will phone them later and see how much I have left on my contract I was going to upgrade but their customer service is shocking

  • m13rku Mark Dixon (@m13rku) reported

    @O2 I need help ASAP can someone reply to my msgs

  • Gregory09541756 Gregory (@Gregory09541756) reported

    @O2 please confirm you can’t ‘detect my account because the online services are down’. Was told to ring back tomorrow, do yous not realise we have lives and cant ring whenever convenient FOR YOU when its YOUR COMPANIES MISTAKE that I’m ringing for…

  • raycroz ray crozier (@raycroz) reported

    @O2 shocking service, best deal on an iPhone 14 is twice the price than others online! Only offered 2 deals expected a little more considering I have 2 contracts with them #o2sucks
