    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 aboard and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

    @O2 Too little too late @o2 it shouldn't take you 90mins to answer query and your chat was unavailable... I'll go to another provider who offers a better service #notfitforourpose

    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

    Pathetic service at @O2 moving networks over 20 years

  • 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.

  • RJakesEU
    Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

    haha, just had an (obviously scam) phone call from someone who claimed to be from @O2 … when they asked how the service was and I said it was poor, they hung up

  • Tiffers1973

  • liam0046
    Liam Wright (@liam0046) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 honestly the shittest customer service I've ever come across. Absoloutely useless when you finally do get response

  • RJakesEU
    Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

    Kinda wonder why I use @O2 when their mobile signal in central Manchester is barely functioning. Continually timing out, drops connection 😡

  • Gsd1Omara
    Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 why is the signal in #Middleton so poor??? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking signal. I know loads of people wanting to change supplier #notgood #sortitout

  • Josh_Deegan
    Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 has less than 20 mins to sort their app out. Come on guys, this is so bad

  • SteveVanDang
    Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported from Stockport, England

    Welp @O2 support was great tellin me no better deals,tho new customers get massively better deals & the signal in my area should be good 🤷. #Pac requested, got a @VOXI_UK Sim for half the price, better signal, more perks. 16 years brand loyalty with o2, was worth squat to o2.cya

  • MawJoe
    Joe Maw (@MawJoe) reported

    @O2 your service has been terrible since you amalgamated with Virgin I’ve had my security locked on my account despite several phone calls promising to unlock. This was caused by believe it or not, me wanting to spend money with o2z. Since then I’ve been charged twice for a bill

  • KeighleyWest
    Keighley West (@KeighleyWest) reported

    Hi @O2 I have major problems with your phone operators. They told e to go public on twitter for an hour in order to pay my bill??? @Ofcom my number is (0)7545 973056

  • boulton65
    Anne Louise Boulton (@boulton65) reported

    @O2 Case CIT-A387037 I am requesting this is escalated to a formal complaint and managerial review. While roaming in the EU I experienced a complete loss of mobile data service. There was a failure of service and of support handling resulting in significant inconvenience and concern.

  • Calh48
    Cal (@Calh48) reported

    @Lorna__xx @O2 Honest to goodness they are shocking. I was out today and my phone said I had two 5G bars. Couldn’t send a WhatsApp, search the internet, make a call or seem a Snapchat. Alls they say is service is fine. Dreadful if I’m home without WiFi I can’t do anything!

    Limey (@Limey31649474) reported

    @andrejpwalker @O2 Me too, it’s total garbage. Literally didn’t work, how TF can they not know. Once they pull their finger out and sort it I’ll be going elsewhere.

    @O2 @Ofcom can you send me the link to make a complaint? @O2 refusing me the 14 day change your mind

  • Billyhawes
    Billy Hawes (@Billyhawes) reported

    I don’t normally post but is there anything more frustrating than phone signal…. @EE @O2 2026 and in the southwest of England for 250 miles travelling up north. Not one stable phone call. #shambles

  • Lord_Viridis
    Viridis (@Lord_Viridis) reported

    @Ofcom @O2 I myself warned them about web issues on myO2 4 months ago, now the app has followed suit and is unusable. All linked to people with multiple accounts. The authentication service is riddled with errors and will loop people into a server configuration error.
