    @O2 when are you going to fix the mobile signal in Manchester? Hardly anything in the city centre and I need to rely on Wi-Fi. Definitely not worth what I’m currently paying for it

  • lucyolix
    lucy (@lucyolix) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 is the signal down in Salford? Data isn’t working and the signal is either none or just one

    @O2 disappointing that o2 treat us like **** after 20 years as both a personal and business customer. Seems they’re happy for us to walk away. Clueless customer service. No attempt to help us.

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @O2 your network coverage across the UK is awful: there’s about one street in Manchester where I get a useable 4G signal and nowhere else. Definitely isn’t my devise as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • dtackley
    Daniel Tackley (@dtackley) reported from Bury, England

    Oh what a surprise. @O2 have yet again failed to take my direct debit payment. Every month I call and they assure me the next payment will be taken but it never has. Sheer incompetence!

    @O2 your customer service is actually the worst

  • J0eH0lmes

    @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?

  • mars_silva_
    Márcio Silva (@mars_silva_) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 just wondering about your masts in Ashton-under-Lyne which have been failing for a few days now. Data is almost never working this week, and I have no other way of accessing the internet

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @O2 I messaged earlier and you managed to help me with my query, I’ve since sent another DM but have not received any reply. I messaged as my husband lost his phone so you blocked it for me. It has now been returned by the taxi driver so he requires the phone unlocking please

    @BattyeB @EE I'm afraid I can't recommend @O2 even if they have good coverage where you are... you can't get any service from them. Been trying to get through for an hour this time #notfitforourpose

    @O2 I have done and no joy, paying 50 odd quid a month for crap signal and crap Internet signal everywhere I go, you want to help then help me cancel my contract for a service you are not providing 👍

    @O2 @o2 Your service in Bolton area has been terrible over recent weeks to the point I am considering leaving. When will this improve??? #badservice #telephone

    Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

    @mister___ran @O2 I have to speak to O2 for work purposes, we bought a business, made the old owner redundant. Called to cancel the contracts and guess what… would only speak to the old owner. Repeat anything else and you can tell they read from a script!

    Big shout out to Lewis at the @O2 store in Wakefield. I went it to try and pay for my phone repair after 202 couldn't help me and changing my weekend plans to accommodate. Whilst I couldn't get it paid he did everything he could to help me.

    @O2 mobile data coverage is absolute ******* pants. The service is getting worse and worse. Sporadic connection. Hindley, Platt Bridge basically is a ******* dead zone. Crock of ****

  • ItsMartinBrown
    Sussex Hammer (@ItsMartinBrown) reported

    @O2 Any chance someone from this county can get in contact to sort out a problem going back to May? Call centre is rubbish and never call back when promised, can’t waste an hour on the phone every time I call!

    erin p (@erin_pain666) reported

    @O2 I’m trying to make a formal complaint but your complaints process appears to be failing. Your online complaint form gives me an error and the complaints email address directed me to is not monitored. I need someone to help me register this complaint through another route.

    Just completed my first test on the Buffering Britain app. Not surprised to get a result of "no usable signal" in my house in Preston on @O2.
