  • 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

  • Dan05858044 Dan (@Dan05858044) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 what’s going on with the signal in Manchester, absolutely crap. Can hardly get on @SkySportsNews

  • violetibeh Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

  • Mrs_G_Bowen Just Gem 💙 (@Mrs_G_Bowen) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 I have no issue with waiting so long as you will have it in stock? I was told next Saturday on the phone for delivery this am and then received an email to say it's not in stock. Hence the confusion 😕

    @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.

  • Dunkie5150 Paul Dunk (@Dunkie5150) reported from Glossop, England

  • NIXON26 John Nixon (@NIXON26) reported

    @O2 Hi,why does your service status says you are investigating a problem with a mast in our area, then says everything ok.But calls still dropping, cut off and can’t hear people, then have to phone back.A lot of people on o2 experiencing this in our area.

  • _Damien_W The_Damien_Show_UK (@_Damien_W) reported

    @O2 I have messaged you with further detail but I absolutely stand by this post. I’m also relieved that I do not use your services and now will never be tempted to do so.

  • Tom13146090 Tom (@Tom13146090) reported

    @O2 I'm abroad and I've just got a £125 bill for 20mb of data when I accidentally turned off aeroplane mode. Who do I need to contact to either get this cancelled of make a complaint? Due to the above, I'm obviously unable to call...

  • DanHallas Dan Hallas (@DanHallas) reported

    @Yorksims @giffgaff @O2 Sadly as GiffGaff use the O2 Network, of which O2 and Vodafone 'share' masts. GiffGaff won't be able to repair a mast and will just continuously fob people off saying the 'network is busy', when in fact it's an infrastructure issue. Fix the mast issue and the network will be fine

  • imemzie Em (@imemzie) reported

    @O2 I don’t need your network guide. I just want to stop having to drop to my 3G whenever I’m out. I’m paying for 4g and live in a very populated town.

  • Alu_Hunud Ala'addin (@Alu_Hunud) reported

    @withanisa @O2 I suggest you dm @Lytechcyber to fix your account now

  • imemzie Em (@imemzie) reported

    @O2 seriously o2 fix your god damn data coverage!!! It is getting worse and worse everyday and can’t even work properly in non peak hours when towns aren’t busy. Can’t even get decent coverage when I travel to different parts of the UK!! Your service has become a joke 🤬

  • chrisjenko Chris Jenkins (@chrisjenko) reported

    @O2 hey, I joined you guys about 6 weeks ago and migrated my number. I’ve registered the number with O2 wifi and yet the Underground wifi is still telling me that I’m not with O2. Are you able to help at all?
