  • GavCrypt0 FinTech Gav (@GavCrypt0) reported

    @O2 can you explain why in 2022 there has STILL been nothing done in Newry Northern Ireland regarding poor data. It’s scandalous the money been paid for nothing

  • JaysonDoesMusic blank (@JaysonDoesMusic) reported

    @Delibird444 @O2 Eat **** @O2

  • __sine_nomine S Esq (@__sine_nomine) reported

    @EE Hi EE. What’s the point of paying for a premium product when in Germany you have picked o2 de? It’s the third network for coverage and there’s no 5G? As an @O2 uk customer I can pay 25% of the cost of monthly line rental and obtain 5G roaming in Germany?

  • MarkSmi73567910 Mark Smith (@MarkSmi73567910) reported

    @O2 … which is obviously impossible as we don’t own the mobile number. Operator proceeded to hang up despite requests to speak to management. To compound issues @O2 are constantly hounding me for £792 that I don’t owe them (and they admit it), but can’t seem to line their……

  • PaulHan09848231 Paul Hanson (@PaulHan09848231) reported

    When you get an early upgrade call from @O2 say you are going to consider it. Then call them back to say you would like to go with the upgrade and are told sorry you need to hope that team call you back 🤔 yeah that and that they cant help!!

  • funke_dee Dan (@funke_dee) reported

    @O2 I’m pretty sure your network is getting worse. I have to rely on WiFi far too much.

  • TinkMissy Missy Tink (@TinkMissy) reported

    @AppleSupport @o2 been having problems connecting to the internet when I have no Wi-Fi. O2 are none responsive on the handset I’m hiring from them, is this something you could help me with please?

  • JimGilroy Jim🔻⚫️ 💙 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@JimGilroy) reported

    @kohima44terry @O2 That’s terrible. The guy asked for me by my first name when I answered the call. If I’d been quick enough I should have played him by asking “Jim who?” But I just said “I know you”re scammers. Don’t call me again.” And hung up and blocked the number.

  • M_Dos78 MD (@M_Dos78) reported

    @O2 @LutzSchueler Why are your staff so incompetent at basis customer service skills? Called o2 several times yesterday, was fobbed off and lied to several times and still waiting for a manager to call me back after 28 hours! #incompetant #crapservice

  • Delibird444 Dillon 🏳️‍🌈 (@Delibird444) reported

    .@O2 lost a potential customer. Was ready to throw down £1000 cash on a new phone today and they told me they couldn't take me because I haven't been in the country long enough to have credit. They will never see a penny from me. Goodbye.
