    @O2 @purpledolphins7 They didn't help me. They didn't apply the increase in speed. In fact they said I could have 1gig for £30 extraper month. False advertising and liars!

    Always good finding 3 unknown direct debits to @O2 2 months *after* reporting fraud, especially after they refused to refund the charges to gambling websites I’d never even heard of

  • kellyvmckeown
    Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Manchester, England

    Avoid @o2 at all costs they are the worst company I’ve ever had to deal with absolutely zero customer service no choice other than to cancel

    Is it just me or is @O2 signal getting worse and worse.

  • liammcdon97
    Liam McDonald (@liammcdon97) reported from Stockport, England

    £40 a month for @O2 and can't even get any signal majority of the time. Absolute jokers.

  • clare_jeffs
    Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, England

    They told her they are affiliated with @O2 and apparently do not offer cooling off periods. How can they miss-sell to a vulnerable lady with a brain injury and not cancel it. @plandotcom DISGUSTING.

  • RJakesEU
    Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 when are you going to fix the mobile signal in Manchester? Hardly anything in the city centre and I need to rely on Wi-Fi. Definitely not worth what I’m currently paying for it

  • Dan05858044

  • 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!

  • DAbrahamNewman
    Dominic Abraham-Newman (@DAbrahamNewman) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 as a last resort I am tweeting following extremely poor support from your contact centre who I am not getting anywhere with despite numerous calls. I need urgent support with a query which has left me £119 out of pocket following fraudulent activity. Please contact me asap!

  • Thelurch
    Chris TheLurch Saunders 🌶 (@Thelurch) reported

    @cpfcjc Wow! Such denial! Unbelievable. Go to @EE like we did. The @O2 staff in that shop are encouraging everyone to defect to EE as they are so fed up with people complaining about no signal in the town.

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE Don’t come to Shropshire. In some areas like my parish signal is next to nothing. Lucky to get 3 bars on a good day!

  • clairew930
    Claire Louise (@clairew930) reported

    @O2 please can you advise why your app never seems to work anymore when trying to view bills or make payments. It’s become a joke since you merged with Virgin

  • CraigGodders
    Craig-David (@CraigGodders) reported

    @O2 can I legally leave my contract with you because of how poor the signal is? There’s a good mile square ld of my town I can’t get any 4g at all.

  • silestanix
    Mr H (@silestanix) reported

    @O2 I've already submitted a formal complaint, I'll be asking for my PAC Code when I'm back in the UK next week. Enough is enough. I will also be withholding payment of line rental for this billing period, as the service has been non existent, I still cannot make phone calls.

    Will Goodhand (@GoodhandWill) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 It also seems to be getting worse - v poor on 5G often
