  • shuttsi77 Richard Shuttleworth (@shuttsi77) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @O2 shocking service from o2 in Wilmslow. 5 new handsets through business and a few can’t be processed due to error. Assured error would be corrected today, it was but then it wasn’t. Messed up my morning yesterday, afternoon today and still two missing handsets.

    @o2 Do NOT use #o2recycle it’s an absolute CON! I sent my perfect condition iPhone 7 to them on an offer of £115, only to recieve a revised offer today of £57 because they claim the screen is now cracked. It’s not their problem though apparently, I should speak to Royal Mail...

  • suemcgran Sue McGranaghan (@suemcgran) reported from Manchester, England

    @oneladyshow @O2 That’s true - friends I have who are on other networks don’t have this problem so not sure it’s because it’s busy x

    @JudgeDewie @O2 Thats messed up man. My brother has the issue and they are telling him its his sim thats not working.. very strange.

  • dantheman19970 dan (@dantheman19970) reported

    @O2 So it’s not a problem as long I keep up with my payments correct

  • EdTodd Todd Dalton (@EdTodd) reported

    @O2 please tell me how I can complain about the terrible customer service I’m receiving: I just need my number moving from PAYG to PM but multiple times I’ve been faced with incompetence.

  • taruncp tarun paul (@taruncp) reported

    @O2 Pathetic customer service. Trying to add insurance to my phone and it has been 3 days and over 2 hours on call.

  • mrchrisfloyd chris floyd (@mrchrisfloyd) reported

    @jem_jem_13 @O2 Problem is they don’t get right training, most of them cannot speak English so communication is poor, between O2 and Virgin Media, probably two worse in customers service and care, without a doubt x

  • leesdecor Lee (@leesdecor) reported

    @EE Just make sure you check their signal strength in the area you're in 1st though. Ideally from someone who has the network in that area you know. Mine was absolutely useless, couldn't wait to change. Went with @O2 which is far superior👌 Do your homework 1st peeps

  • DJDaymos Damian® Daymos™ (@DJDaymos) reported

    @JudgeDewie @O2 Where are you based? Similar issues in West London

  • JudgeDewie Alex (@JudgeDewie) reported

    @DJDaymos @O2 Literally get no texts or phone calls and have to go up the road almost a mile to get my messages. Have had to buy a PAYG sim on another network as I am working from home and have to give telephone legal advice to clients 6 days a week. Absolute joke.

  • jem_jem_13 Jemma (@jem_jem_13) reported

    Seriously @O2 have been the worst customer service I've ever experienced! Literally no words for how shocking it has been

  • JudgeDewie Alex (@JudgeDewie) reported

    @DJDaymos @O2 Warwickshire/West Midlands border. I have been told that they “took a mast down” and “will be putting another one up”. Clearly haven’t put the new one up in 10 days and, call me old fashioned, I would have the new one ready to go before removing the old one. Zero coverage at all.
