    @O2 your service line is actual cancer, never felt so frustrated from such a little thing in my life. Why can’t i get through to an operator?

  • Mr_Ricker79 Ricky Gwilliam (@Mr_Ricker79) reported from Manchester, England

    @lmjwoww @O2 Exactly... their response didn’t help at all as I had already been on their website. I would say they don’t currently have 5G in Manchester. Contradicting the info on the website. 😡

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 when will the 4G signal be back to normal working order? Is COVID still a factor in this? I'm sure the signal strength was cut short due to more people working at home etc.

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Stockport, England

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Mottram in Longdendale, England

    @O2 hi, how can a serious look at serious lack of 4G signal strength be looked into? I've been advised to use the O2 signal checker which I have done and it always says that my area is at FULL signal strength. This just isn't the case. 4G since covid is atrocious :0(

  • abbeyfx2 Abiodun T. Tewogbade (@abbeyfx2) reported

    @O2 I did a phone contract for an iPhone and also port my sim from Giffgaff to O2. I need to change to your cheapest plan or move back my line to my old arrangement. Your customer service lines have not been reachable and this is very frustrating.

  • GroundedTech Dan - GroundedTech (@GroundedTech) reported

    @PaulRankinYT @O2 You're a bad influence

  • RobertBalaam Robert Balaam (@RobertBalaam) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @O2 I've just waited 45 minutes for someone to tell me they can't do anything regarding #insurance, then I immediately get a voicemail saying call the same number. PLEASE SORT THIS ASAP !!!! #CustomerService #awful

  • Artyoem Artyom Popov (@Artyoem) reported

    @O2 paid my bill on Wednesday, today I've had messages to tell me my number has been cut off. When calling support it is physically impossible to get through to an agent to help as the automated line defaults to making me try to pay and goes no further. What do I do?

  • RobertBalaam Robert Balaam (@RobertBalaam) reported from Southall, England

    @O2 I've tried twice. 45 minutes each time. Absolutely horrific service!!!!!

  • maggiemoomoo24 Margaret (@maggiemoomoo24) reported

  • Kimlouise01 Kim Louise! (@Kimlouise01) reported

    @O2 why is it so hard to speak to someone at your company? I have been trying all week and nobody will answer at customer services.

  • abbeyfx2 Abiodun T. Tewogbade (@abbeyfx2) reported

    @O2 I have been calling customer service for weeks, when I got through, I was told you had network and system difficulties and I should call another time. I need to change this sim contract, it does not work for me.
