    @EuropeanBob7 @O2 Gone right down hill o2, used to be decent. ******* hard work now.

    Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

    This Christmas, @O2 is donating data to those who need it. For every tweet using #O2DataPledge this Giving Tuesday, they'll donate even more data to the National Databank. Tap below to tweet your support 👇

    @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.

    As soon as my contracts up @o2 it’ll be the last day you’ll ever get any money from me been with you guys for 10 years and you kick people down when they’re on their knees.

    @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

  • 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

  • JonnyGravel

  • 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!

  • 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

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

    @O2 disappointing that o2 treat us like **** after 20 years as both a personal and business customer. Seems they’re happy for us to walk away. Clueless customer service. No attempt to help us.

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

    haha, just had an (obviously scam) phone call from someone who claimed to be from @O2 … when they asked how the service was and I said it was poor, they hung up

    @TomTugendhat @O2 Seems like you should switch, even if mid contract because they're unable to provide the service contracted.

  • waynetuckwell
    Wayne Tuckwell 💚🖤 (@waynetuckwell) reported

    @O2 so when am I going to get an update to ticket number: CIT-A408955. Or you hoping I’ll just go away and not bother you again? I will not be renewing with O2 as your customer service is poor to say the least.

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE is that a government issue or the network provider lack of investment ?

  • Andrewislington
    Andrew (the *****) (@Andrewislington) reported

    @JohnTillUK @O2 Back in 2021 I experienced o2. Battled my way to networks, got them to do a total site unwind and fixed the local service. Promptly left as it didn’t work anywhere else!!!! O2 has been starved of investment.
