James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England@O2 Well I said I am having problems with my 4g, you told me to follow the guide which told me to use the network checker, I showed you the results of the network checker and you said 4G isn’t about speeds. So what’s the point in telling me to use the network checker?
-

Markandtfe (@Mark_ElderEmo) reported@Sean_Bahamut @O2 I had the same issue, called and they were like we can't offer any discount on it. Tried to explain I wasn't after a discount and the price had been dropped by Microsoft themselves. Did you get anywhere with this with @O2 ?
-
Misha Hoo (@MishehooA) reported@arokorol @O2 Receiving a "Welcome to Palestinian Authority" message at Ben Gurion Airport happens bc your phone connects to the strongest available signal, which can sometimes be a Palestinian network tower located in the nearby West Bank, rather than an Israeli one. NothiNothing malicious.
-
Martin Renel (@RogerR4BBIT) reported@O2 have a multi SIM contract & it is impossible to get a PAC code for one of them despite you being legally required to do so. Text doesn't work for multi SIM and website gets stuck in a loop back to main account page every time. No one has picked up the phone in 3 lengthy calls
-
Chairman (@youtube1519565) reported@arokorol @abierkhatib @O2 Switch network, to something Israeli like: pedophone network.
-
Devs (@Destr0yT0Create) reported@O2 Yes They said its been an issue with your codes for the last week. They've had a lot of people come in and unable to use it on the Pizzas. As in it just doesnt accept the codes. Greggs - Hounslow both stores on the highstreet and Heston Greggs - High street Whitton

Marc (@marcleigh) reported@o2 @virginmedia your new sign in method is ridiculous this is 2026 get proper security not this stupid email link to verify
-
Cal (@Calh48) reported@Lorna__xx @O2 Honest to goodness they are shocking. I was out today and my phone said I had two 5G bars. Couldn’t send a WhatsApp, search the internet, make a call or seem a Snapchat. Alls they say is service is fine. Dreadful if I’m home without WiFi I can’t do anything!
-
antiscam (@delays83570704) reported@O2 dealing with a scam call which is obviously not you, one of the benefits from having an old O2 number but not being a customer you can be confident its not genuine
-

-
Viridis (@Lord_Viridis) reported@Ofcom @O2 I myself warned them about web issues on myO2 4 months ago, now the app has followed suit and is unusable. All linked to people with multiple accounts. The authentication service is riddled with errors and will loop people into a server configuration error.
