  • thejimirving Jim Irving (@thejimirving) reported from Manchester, England

    Oh, of course, I’m in the middle of a major city, it makes sense that my @O2 service would be completely useless.

  • bolgamy sarcastic bastard (@bolgamy) reported from Manchester, England

    For months I have been complaining about @O2 network. Central Manchester, Bolton Town Centre, Liverpool Town Centre, Edinburgh, Glasgow, etc... I pay over £300 for that privilege. And now you want to reducing the customer loyalty discount...this customer won’t be loyal!!

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @carleyjones1 @O2 No! I never use all my data or minutes. The bill for May- which comes out on 11th June, was only £38 something. I checked the app and I’m up to date. There is no reason to take such a large amount. I can’t even talk after having my tonsils out, it’s a pain in the arse x

  • kml1959 Kevin Lewis (@kml1959) reported from Stockport, England

    You just have to love @O2 one of the most grasping dishonest companies on the planet...they overcharge my business by £80. (their own error) .never apologise but expect you to pay the bill in full and then wait for a credit...what a joke outfit, cancelling all contracts Monday

  • JonNutten Jon Nutten (@JonNutten) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 Not what your customer service staff offered. 😕 typical of @o2businessuk

  • Hoiskiez Matt (@Hoiskiez) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Chris_Stroud @O2 Oh god please don’t start me on this!! I’m glad it’s not just me that has issues! It is totally shocking & they never have an answer on how and when they are going to make it work! Terrible! I call them #NO2

  • Hoiskiez Matt (@Hoiskiez) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Chris_Stroud @O2 I really don’t blame you! I’ll be doing the same! Always had problems with o2 in Manchester ... I have no idea why!

  • VivienneNewt0n Vivienne Newton (@VivienneNewt0n) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 £38 for an iPhone 7 handset only in store at Bolton. MyO2 offer is £38 phone and handset. I’m disabled & would have liked support face2face but the assistant said they can’t compete with online deals!! That’s ridiculous! @PiratePaul2705

  • _chris_a Chris (@_chris_a) reported from Manchester, England

    As if the network congestion issues in many parts of the country weren't bad enough @O2 have excelled themselves with dire customer service agents. I'm named on my husband's account but one agent shouted at me you only deal with the account holder and then hung up.

  • yannickmcosta Yannick McCabe-Costa (@yannickmcosta) reported from Stockport, England

    @NatWest_Help @Scott_Helme Sure. Problem is there is no MSISDN associated to this text, it's just a string with "BankAlert"so without help from @O2 to trace the originator, not much to do. Same with calls from unallocated numbers. You could contact @Equinix / Telecity to whom that IP range is allocated.

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @EE Hi JT. Not yet I’m focussed on having my £742 back from @O2 then I will have a look and start a contract. The customer service and signal is appalling from O2 so I’m looking forward to changing to a reputable service provider.

  • bsdesigned Brent Starling (BS) (@bsdesigned) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Constant drop out in the centre of Manchester due to congestion. Got told by a representative that: After speaking with our Network Service Team, the level of service you’re receiving is the expected level within that area. And it's part of T's and C's.. So tough luck.

  • cicismith81 Careen 'Cici' Smith (@cicismith81) reported from Manchester, England

    Message to @O2 There is NO need for any CSA to hang up on me because I corrected you. I’m now having to pay extra money because a CSA ****** up. And you won’t do a damm thing about it.

  • oneladyshow Charlie (@oneladyshow) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 I have asked you guys to sort it repeatedly and it’s never fixed. Your advice was ‘use 3g’ but even that doesn’t work. :( I have been with you guys for 14 years and im disappointed you haven’t fixed my problem

  • VivienneNewt0n Vivienne Newton (@VivienneNewt0n) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 yet again I’m let down by you - ordered an upgrade & chose a phone in stock. Then told the phone was out of stock - but I can’t change my order!! Disabled, going on holiday & needed the phone 😡@PiratePaul2705

  • JennaHorridge_x Jenna Horridge ☮ (@JennaHorridge_x) reported from Manchester, England

    Why is the signal for @O2 in @manairport shocking & has been for days! 😠

  • phorenzik Stu (@phorenzik) reported

    @O2 I need to cancel a phone contract, but the number you say to cal (202) has massive queues. Is there any other way I can cancel, or do you make it hard on purpose in order to deter people from leaving? Thanks

  • se3john John (@se3john) reported

    Dodgy phone signal in @sainsburys today, "use the @O2 WiFi" the smartshop app says. I click through to register. "Now enter the code we've just sent you via SMS"... Surely someone understands why this is stupid?

  • TheReal_DJHammy Hammy (@TheReal_DJHammy) reported

    @VodafoneUK been a customer for 30 years ! left today due to Vodafone being uncompetive and unwilling to keep customers ! loyalty is a 2 way street and Vodafone clearly do not value its customer base @O2 much better value !

  • wood2307 woody2307 (@wood2307) reported

    @O2 Any idea why your live chat is so poor? Currently 4 hours into a disjointed chat conversation. Infuriating and pretty shocking customer service.
