  • michelle2570 Michelle❤#TeamChester❤#TeamLinkinPark (@michelle2570) reported from Walkden, England

    @chrisstyles44 @O2 I honestly feel truly sorry for all the 02 customers who haven't heard anything about their new mobile phone delivery, that should arrive today! It's so UNFAIR! The 02 Purchase Team have totally messed up! They never checked the phones' actually stocks for reordering in time! 😠

  • yannickmcosta Yannick McCabe-Costa (@yannickmcosta) reported from Stockport, England

    @NatWest_Help @Scott_Helme Sure. Problem is there is no MSISDN associated to this text, it's just a string with "BankAlert"so without help from @O2 to trace the originator, not much to do. Same with calls from unallocated numbers. You could contact @Equinix / Telecity to whom that IP range is allocated.

  • oneladyshow Charlie (@oneladyshow) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 I have asked you guys to sort it repeatedly and it’s never fixed. Your advice was ‘use 3g’ but even that doesn’t work. :( I have been with you guys for 14 years and im disappointed you haven’t fixed my problem

  • Hoiskiez Matt (@Hoiskiez) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Chris_Stroud @O2 Oh god please don’t start me on this!! I’m glad it’s not just me that has issues! It is totally shocking & they never have an answer on how and when they are going to make it work! Terrible! I call them #NO2

  • thejimirving Jim Irving (@thejimirving) reported from Manchester, England

    Oh, of course, I’m in the middle of a major city, it makes sense that my @O2 service would be completely useless.

  • bluegail1 Gail Price 💯🏆💙⚽️ CHAMPIONS!🐝🦈 (@bluegail1) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 @o2 You don’t want to help enough unfortunately! Started off well, then ended up worse than the telephone customer services! Hope no one needs a refund anytime soon, if you do, good luck with that!

  • pathookway patricia hookway (@pathookway) reported from Walkden, England

    @O2 please can you help not happy at all

  • _chris_a Chris (@_chris_a) reported from Manchester, England

    As if the network congestion issues in many parts of the country weren't bad enough @O2 have excelled themselves with dire customer service agents. I'm named on my husband's account but one agent shouted at me you only deal with the account holder and then hung up.

  • planesmad2016 Aviation News ✈️ (@planesmad2016) reported from Bury, England

    @O2 as a victim of domestic abuse I would thought O2 would be more understanding and helping customers who experienced financial abuse as well if domestic abuse! I haven’t received any of that from you! Horrible nasty network! #Poorcustomerservice @bbcthree @MarkEvansO2

  • Hoiskiez Matt (@Hoiskiez) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Chris_Stroud @O2 I really don’t blame you! I’ll be doing the same! Always had problems with o2 in Manchester ... I have no idea why!

  • jordanbuckley92 Jordan Tui Lolahea (@jordanbuckley92) reported from Manchester, England

    Sick of never getting service with @o2 didn’t move to these to deal with this shite daily!! Pissed off

  • bluegail1 Gail Price 💯🏆💙⚽️ CHAMPIONS!🐝🦈 (@bluegail1) reported from Middleton, England

    Well my opinion of @O2 has just (to quote a word used so many times by O2) “escalated” from bad to absolutely useless!

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @carleyjones1 @O2 No! I never use all my data or minutes. The bill for May- which comes out on 11th June, was only £38 something. I checked the app and I’m up to date. There is no reason to take such a large amount. I can’t even talk after having my tonsils out, it’s a pain in the arse x

  • 305WA12 WESLEY D WOOLFALL ⭐⭐⭐🌟🌟 (@305WA12) reported from Lymm, England

  • planesmad2016 Aviation News ✈️ (@planesmad2016) reported from Bury, England

    Day 2 of Trying to get @O2 to understand what domestic abuse and financial abuse is! @MarkEvansO2 Mark I think you need to pull your finger out your ass and look at the state of your company your running! All your contact centres are run by shitty capita! Your a horrible company

  • MDOG_Manchester Manchester Dining Offers (@MDOG_Manchester) reported from Manchester, England

    @hellofawaytodie @O2 There’s a mast down though

  • franclayton58 Fran Clayton (@franclayton58) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @O2 incompetent at sorting out a query despite our attempts#gdpr issue set up more than one direct debit without authority

  • bluegail1 Gail Price 💯🏆💙⚽️ CHAMPIONS!🐝🦈 (@bluegail1) reported from Salford, England

  • pammie02 Pam Nunn (@pammie02) reported from Manchester, England

O2 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • SeriousShortbrd PARODY of Davies Tom, who is himself a PARODY (@SeriousShortbrd) reported

    My wife had her phone stolen last week. Both @Apple & @O2 support have asked her to confirm a security code that has been sent to her mobile. Honestly, the logic in this is baffling.

  • RichTheArcane kukulkan (@RichTheArcane) reported

    Soon I’ll transfer from @VodafoneUK to @O2 because there benefits are ****!!

  • YASUKESANS YASUKE-SAN (@YASUKESANS) reported

    If you’re based in the UK please stay away from @virginmedia and @O2 Both don’t know their arse from their elbow. Virgin incorrectly creates my account, 02 loses the sim and I’m left unable to access my account but expected to pay for a service I didn’t ask for.

  • chris_roarty Chris Roarty (@chris_roarty) reported

    @O2 noticed over the past year or so that this service has gone extremely downhill. Can’t get a signal anywhere anymore, calls drop out all of the time. So disappointing considering I’ve been a customer for almost 15 years! Thought upgrading my phone would sort it, just worse.

  • ZackBerry10 Zack Berry (@ZackBerry10) reported

    @hannah25959597 @O2 Poor from such a big company

  • jimnimmo60 oor Jim (@jimnimmo60) reported from Airdrie, Scotland

    @O2 @virginmedia probably the worst mobile phone company to deal with. Customer service is a joke. Trying to resolve fraudulent activity on my account and no understanding. Abysmal. Please go anywhere else except them. Just cut me off now.

  • rudybanjo Rudy Banjo (@rudybanjo) reported

    @O2 Hi, been on the phone over an hour trying to cancel my contract with o2, no answer. Not the greatest business plan or PR , to trap your customers on the phone for over an hour hoping they'll give up. No online option either. Dreadful service

  • hannah25959597 hannah (@hannah25959597) reported

    @O2 disgusted that one of your team members has taken a contract out with my Dads name without even his consent and then to make it worse, it is being delivered to a flat in London??? This fraud issue you have is appalling and we will be changing networks after this stress

  • koolmacher K B (@koolmacher) reported

    @O2 I'm a virgin media volt customer as part of that I had to take an O2 sim, virgin are increasing prices mid contract and say I can leave charge free including the O2 sim but when contacting O2 they say there are early termination charges. Please update your staff

  • winterangeI J (@winterangeI) reported

    How can @o2 mess up so badly that my new phone gets my mums texts and my calls and my old phone gets my mums calls and my texts and my mums phone gets wiped? How the hell do I even sort this **** out?
