    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

    @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!

    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Also sorry - but what’s the point in telling me to use a network checker if you don’t accept the results of the checker? That’s literally your app I’m using and it’s giving me terrible results.

    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

  • sambungle
    King Bungle (@sambungle) reported

    @O2 for 18 years I’ve had phone reception whilst at work and it was always perfect, now nothing at all for the last couple of months! What is going on? Other staff menebers are having the same problem too, I use my phone for work now I can’t. Bradford area

  • csljohnkirby
    John Kirby (@csljohnkirby) reported

    Why does @O2 make it so hard to be a good customer? Yesterday, due to terrible service, and for them going to my bank for a DD I did not owe, I received compensation of £50. Today, they threatened to cut my services and report me to Debt Collection Agencies. They sent me SMS and an email, yet apparently, the £30 compensation they offered today, I can not have because I had the maximum compensation yesterday for another matter.

    @LucyProxxyfox @O2 @virginmedia Good luck with a complaint Lucy, mine is nearly 5 months old after O2 cancelled an iwatch contract incorrectly and stuck an arrangement to pay on my credit file, which stays for 6 years. About to go to the ombudsman

  • barton6435
    Craig Barton (@barton6435) reported

    @O2 The network checker is equally useless. You check it says you should have great signal but you never do.

  • markcallow10

    @fiyero @O2 They probably can’t get their own signal

  • chrishughesuk
    chris (@chrishughesuk) reported

    @O2 This is for my son, so it would be paired with my phone but he has his own number, that all good ? If so could you tell me how to sort this out if customer services can’t please?

    @joecousins89 @Dan_Roberts21 @O2 FWIW it’s not so bad in the north. I’ve had decent signal in Sheffield, Manchester and Leeds recently
