  • howierice Howard Rice (@howierice) reported from Sale, England

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

  • tadhg50 Tim O'Ryan (@tadhg50) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 Yep-didn’t work and then tried via help centre- still no luck . I’ll DM the number

  • kea11y 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.

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

    @O2 No 4G barely works! I never get through a phone call without it cutting out

  • 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

  • leannt1984 Leann (@leannt1984) reported from Salford, England

    Hi @O2 I’m both a virgin media customer and have a pay monthly sim with O2 and i am struggling to sign up to Volt! Help!

  • 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?

    @O2 - when phoning people asking why they're leaving your network, it may not help your cause if you hang up abruptly as you don't like the answers you're getting...
