    @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.

    @chlo3matthewman @O2 @viagogo Tickets on there for over a £1000 now, O2 clearly weren’t experiencing issues with ticket demand unless you were an ordinary customer who wanted them at face value. Very very poor

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade.

    @O2 just some feedback - your blue Monday offering is terrible not a fan of spin the wheel. Can you change back the offering or ask your partnerships team to find better quality partnerships?

  • aliward96
    Ali (@aliward96) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 I’ve been with a few networks and O2 are easily the worst. I’ll never go anywhere near them or any network that piggy backs off them.

  • SoSoaksy
    Amelia Eberhardt-Armstrong (@SoSoaksy) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 They are reducing signal strength to save electricity costs. They even boast about how they reduce energy consumption by switching equipment off/running in lower power. Esp in non peak periods such as overnight. Doesn’t seem to be subject to regulatory measures

    Billy Randoms (@Randoms141884) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @vodafone That free market Thatcherite stuff is really working, huh? Remove the red tape, let private enterprise sort it! Just like the water, energy and rail companies! They invest in infrastructure and provide great service, be more like them!
