    Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

    @O2 It's always the same at work. Terrible service in a lot of places in Oldham.

    @O2 why is it IMPOSSIBLE to speak yo somebody about your crappy service & non existent network????? £50 per month for NO SERVICE AT ALL for almost 12 months ! That's £600 shocking company!!

    @O2 Hello, my data hasn’t worked since yesterday. I’ve reset the network settings and my phone. Any ideas?

    @O2 I’ve not had access to the network all day, what’s going on? It would have been good to be notified of issues. Really not happy 😠 I’m due for an upgrade, might have to@consider switching to another network

    Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Stockport, England

    @joe_fush @O2 I've been trying to log into my @O2 account and you keep sending me text messages with codes on to log me in, but with absolutely zero signal I can not receive the codes to access my account 🥴

    @O2 why is your signal in Manchester so, so ****?!

  • kjgreigy
    Karen Greig (@kjgreigy) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 hi i live in the postcode area OL9 , for the last 3/4 months the signal has been horrendous!! Lucky if I get 1 bar of 4G and once I can make a call I’m lucky if it doesn’t disconnect or if I move it cuts off… not great when paying a fair bit for a contract! #help

  • ZackHallam
    Zack Hallam 🐝 (@ZackHallam) reported from Manchester, England

    Why does @O2 refuse to give you internet connection whenever there’s more than 4 people near you… Surely there’s enough infrastructure in Manchester to support 4G?! Every single time I’m in a city centre, my data just doesn’t work. It’s a joke

  • GoaterBilly
    Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England

    @O2 beware of what you get told and sold by o2, they’ve ripped us off in a big way. Customer loyalty counts for nothing. After over 20 years with them, we can’t wait to go elsewhere. As unhelpful as it gets

    @Allan2111272 @O2 It was so atrocious that their own network app couldn’t work

    @O2 really poor customer service today when trying to open a new account #exasperated

  • 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!

    @kokeshimum @O2 I read the first two sentences and thought you were talking about drugs. Bed-time for me. Hope your service improves.

    Whats happened to the signal on fones in this country? Its shocking now isnt it ? @O2 @apple whats happened? #Signal

  • MrsP1001
    MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported

    @scampaboy @kokeshimum @O2 I was in Scotland a couple of years ago, full signal of 4g on remote roads without a house in sight. At home I'm 3 miles from a city and signal is pathetic

  • wakeyrule
    Grendel (@wakeyrule) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Because big companies care more about servicing their manager bonuses and shareholders dividends than providing a reasonable service.

  • squigly1971
    Squigly (@squigly1971) reported

    Try dealing with @O2 when something goes wrong abroad. They failed to provide the service I renewed my contracts for, then turned it into a catalogue of poor advice, broken promises, endless delays and a complaints process that doesn’t even work. Completely unacceptable.

  • mitchhirsty
    Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported

    @Frugal_ways @O2 @virginmedia Frustrating isn’t it? Now imagine that’s the only way you can actually pay the bill and O2 force you onto a promise to pay to restore service, tell you that you must pay, and it’s still not fixed! (Long story. Disabled, only method I can use is via the app or website) thanks O2🙄

  • Watch_n_Wait
    Martin Lee (@Watch_n_Wait) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Listen to any talk radio show and the regularity with which they "lose" guests and callers is embarrassing, and nearly all down to dodgy mobile connections. Sadly Brits gave up a really decent landline system for the "convenience" of mobile without thinking about quality.

    @kokeshimum @O2 I live in Norfolk the signal is terrible here. I use EE and Vodafone (work and own phone) neither are great. Travel in Europe the phone signal is much better !

    @kokeshimum @O2 Agreed, garbage!
