  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Too little too late @o2 it shouldn't take you 90mins to answer query and your chat was unavailable... I'll go to another provider who offers a better service #notfitforourpose

  • CherylManley14 Cheryl Manley (@CherylManley14) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 due a phone call from an engineer looking into my account at the very latest today. Rang in, lost signal, advisor had to call me back. Still nothing but yet bet you’ll take payment on time for poor service

  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @BattyeB @EE I'm afraid I can't recommend @O2 even if they have good coverage where you are... you can't get any service from them. Been trying to get through for an hour this time #notfitforourpose

  • JonHurst15 ⚽️ Jon BWFC Hurst ⚽️ (@JonHurst15) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 I have done and no joy, paying 50 odd quid a month for crap signal and crap Internet signal everywhere I go, you want to help then help me cancel my contract for a service you are not providing 👍

  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone got any suggestions on how to get a pac code from @O2 it's next to impossible to get through. Surely this is against @Offcom code of conduct? A comms network company that won't take customer calls!?! Anyone else having this problem? #ukmobile

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • LaurenJThomas93 Lauren Thomas (@LaurenJThomas93) reported

    @O2 I have not. Would it be wise to try in another phone to see if still a problem then? I am using a Samsung Galaxy S21. It has been in there since having the phone, so the only phone it has been inserted in. Calls, texts are phone. Seems just Internet / Data.

  • ascotsquine Christina 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🌍 (@ascotsquine) reported

    @VodafoneUK Not working consistently. Another example of unsatisfactory customer service experience. Wonder if @O2 or @EE or any other provider is better for me in the FK11 area?

  • Lilposh5 Lilposh of London (@Lilposh5) reported

    @O2 @AyoShonaiya WTF 😳 @O2 we are told they sold out

  • phillcollins08 TheOriginalPhillCollins (@phillcollins08) reported

    @O2 I have a complaint to make about one of your store staff members. How would I go about doing this? I don't want to contact the store about it.

  • hyland1980 Claire Hyland (@hyland1980) reported

    @O2 @DrAlexGeorge @canopyandstars Nothing but problems with o2

    Hey @O2 who can I speak to in order to get some help with the name on my account? It’s now failing credit checks due to this issue

  • TheTyChapman Tyler Chapman (@TheTyChapman) reported

    Why is @O2 signal so bad in my area constantly!! So close to changing providers, please improve in YO12! #rubbish

  • madcow42 Sarah 🌼 & Jasper 🐾 (@madcow42) reported

    @tweetstrong91 @ShitChester @O2 Problem is so many other companies use their network too so you are pretty much stuck for choice.

  • ppnd84 H (@ppnd84) reported

    @O2 Finally spoke to a human, he said he'd put me through to the relevant dept, and my call was disconnected again. This is really unsatisfactory, especially as my problem arises from a mistake made by O2, which I'm now wasting my time chasing. Let me know if you'd like to help.
