    @O2 Hi there - I’ve been unable to make calls all week as I’ve one or zero bars of reception. Can someone help? Your site says no network problems in the area (nw London)

  • sarahbarloww Sarahhh (@sarahbarloww) reported

    Curious.. @O2 .. I have a 5G contract yet I never see 5G on my network, only ever 4G?? What’s the reason for this???

  • alilouherts Alison D (@alilouherts) reported

    @Shireen_5 @O2 I’m jealous! @O2 have never given me any treats and I’ve been with them since they were BT Cellnet!!!

  • boredwithgaming Boredwithgaming (@boredwithgaming) reported

    @O2 Way to go o2 the stupidity is unrivaled as your answer to why I can't talk to a person on the phone is to use my o2 app which doesn't solve my issue, the great detective work there is amazing and purely the dumbest one I have seen yet

  • jimmyll04218854 jimmy lloyd (@jimmyll04218854) reported

    @O2 I’m using an iPhone 12 on a monthly contract - done every diagnostic / sim swap etc and nothing works. It’s not specific to my handset - other users on our work account have some issues, handset replaced - your network, it’s sub standard. I get 3G at best approx 70% of the time

  • andyhall2171 Andy Hall (@andyhall2171) reported

    @O2 possibly the worse phone network to try and leave/ contact and maybe thinking just cancel the direct debit #CustomerService

  • chriis1993 Chris Cox (@chriis1993) reported

    @hughedens @Shireen_5 @O2 I've just recently join O2 at the start of the year and had nothing but issues with service/slow internet. Was told this morning they don't promise a fault free service so they won't do anything about it. its pathetic

  • Christi08670213 Christian Novak (@Christi08670213) reported

    The third party terms state that they buy data about you when they get info from @O2 . They also collect location data, and anything else they can get from your device. Including recordings of videos. I have tried to report this to o2, but they either hang up on me or do nothing.
