O2 Issues Reports Near Manchester, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Manchester and nearby locations:

  • clare_jeffs Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, England

    They told her they are affiliated with @O2 and apparently do not offer cooling off periods. How can they miss-sell to a vulnerable lady with a brain injury and not cancel it. @plandotcom DISGUSTING.

  • bodsy0 Mike Bowden (@bodsy0) reported from Stockport, England

    @o2 you really need to change your 'on-hold' music #terrible 😎

  • eagleeyedferret Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes the original problem is still not resolved. Can you DM me please to sort it out as I’m not wasting any more time with your shocking overseas call centres. Have you not realised by now they are a false economy?

  • chrisrogan Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, England

    Pee'd off at @GreggsOfficial and @O2 three weeks in a row with priority debacle. One week over charged, last week paid for my own this week walked out. Staff not trained in the offer and Greggs not responding to customer service emails. More Greggs issue than o2.

  • elgobsucram Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported from Manchester, England

    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

  • StevenB93941279 Steven Burns (@StevenB93941279) reported from Ramsbottom, England

    Is it just me or is @O2 signal getting worse and worse.

  • SimpaticoGem Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SOGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • Tiffers1973 Tiffers (@Tiffers1973) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @o2 any idea when your advisors will be able to help ? Been waiting since last night for advice with roaming

  • SawdayJames 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?

  • J0eH0lmes Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 my phone is saying no sim so I have zero signal or data to call or text you. Any chance of getting someone to give me a ring to sort out a new sim card?

  • OliverBanks Oliver Banks 🇺🇦 (@OliverBanks) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 hi, how do I cancel a contract within the 14 day cooling off period please?

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported from Manchester, England

    @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!

  • Dr_Bass Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi, my 4G signal over the last few months has been dreadful. I’m currently sitting with 3 bars of 4G and waiting about 10-20 seconds for a picture to download. I thought it was just me but seen plenty others complaining.

  • SawdayJames 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.

  • grantmathieson Grant Griffiths-Mathieson (@grantmathieson) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @O2 Has she maybe assumed data protection issue

  • DaveWrigh Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

  • eagleeyedferret Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 3/3 only conclusion I could reach is that your call centre staff are under pressure to make more calls and now routinely disconnect customer calls after a period of making no progress. What do you think??

  • J0eH0lmes Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Stockport, England

    @joe_fush @O2 I've been trying to log into my @O2 account and you keep sending me text messages with codes on to log me in, but with absolutely zero signal I can not receive the codes to access my account 🥴

  • SawdayJames James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hey - I have checked the guide. It’s not my device as it worked 100% better on a recent trip to France. It’s not the environment as this is something I experience everywhere (in Leicester, in Manchester, on trains, at festivals) - but your signal checker says I have good 4G.

  • eagleeyedferret Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 2/2 both occasions the call centres were noisy. Call centre operative didn’t speak very god English. Both operatives complaining their systems were slow or not working at all and putting me on hold for long periods.

  • bennettk1988 Kayleigh Bennett (@bennettk1988) reported

    Absolutely appalling customer service from @O2 conned into getting a tablet I didn’t want/need it has upped my monthly bill, even though he said it would come down, try & apply my NHS discount, doesn’t get done, book call for today at 10.30, no call & online help is diabolical!

  • xeon_tuts Shaun Mather (@xeon_tuts) reported

    @O2 what the hell you playing at now have a major default on my credit record cause your payment and accounts system is ****. Made payments via mobile and they constantly go into the either to return back 7 days later. When the system finally works it's ok tho.

  • Annaburrington Anna Lockyer (@Annaburrington) reported

    @O2 I also rang this morning and they said dpd would be here with the phone before 11…. Still nothing and when I track it says it’s on its way back to o2. Please help! I’m due to give birth any day now and urgently need someone to help!

  • RanKotobukiii 👸🏿 (@RanKotobukiii) reported

    Why ******** is @O2 connection always ****???????? #THIEVES

  • nutellandchill Nutellandchill (@nutellandchill) reported

    Word to the wise : @O2 WILL NEVER contact you to convince you to move your near ending phone plan to a new fancy "business" plan, never, ever. Be aware of companies pretending to be you service provider. Remember : O2 don't do cold calling. Pass the word 📣

  • Matolski Matt Olley (@Matolski) reported

    @O2 hey, can someone tell me why I have zero signal here in Thelwall in Cheshire? Usually I get full signal but it’s been off all morning…

  • ReissOmari Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Hi, please could you help me with a online store order?

  • alex_BRoden Alex Roden 🔰 (@alex_BRoden) reported

    @O2 day 4 of having no network in my area! What is being done about it?!

  • RJS_DUX RJ (@RJS_DUX) reported

    @O2 I ordered a SIM for a no-commitment "Rolling Plan" - then got a call about 1-year minimum SIM-only deals. And it doesn't allow me to connect to the MyO2 app to activate the rolling plan. Then customer service say they can't do anything about it, but try and push SIM-only...

  • TheCripsonChin Spooder-Punk 🇬🇧 (@TheCripsonChin) reported

    @O2 you useless ***** hav3 been giving me the run around. I want my service on now, the bill has been paid yet i still can't call, text or use my data. You're by far shittest network provider of 2023 🖕🏿
