    Welp @O2 support was great tellin me no better deals,tho new customers get massively better deals & the signal in my area should be good 🤷. #Pac requested, got a @VOXI_UK Sim for half the price, better signal, more perks. 16 years brand loyalty with o2, was worth squat to o2.cya

  • sonnisamosa Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes it says 4G, I have no idea what’s going on. Is there an issue certain areas possibly?

  • sonnisamosa Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Hello, my data hasn’t worked since yesterday. I’ve reset the network settings and my phone. Any ideas?

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

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

  • Dan05858044 Dan (@Dan05858044) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 what’s going on with the signal in Manchester, absolutely crap. Can hardly get on @SkySportsNews

  • 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

  • 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 ?!

  • kingpak93 Paul King (Kingy) (@kingpak93) reported from Glossop, England

    @O2 Have changed phones and need a micro sim card. Have PAYG with credit so want to keep same number and credit I have. Ordered a sim card online a week ago and nothing has arrived. Can you help please? New phone sat unused as can’t put standard size sim card in it.

  • Mrs_G_Bowen Just Gem 💙 (@Mrs_G_Bowen) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 I have no issue with waiting so long as you will have it in stock? I was told next Saturday on the phone for delivery this am and then received an email to say it's not in stock. Hence the confusion 😕

  • 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.

  • miss_scw Miss C-W (@miss_scw) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 hi I have reason to believe that my phone number has been ‘spoofed’ can you help?

    @O2 having problems With my signal Keeps blocking out

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

    @O2 which idiot authorises sending out texts at 4 o’clock in the morning to update me about my phone order? Get real.The person needs punching or sacking or both!

  • 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?

  • ronkisha Me Myself & I ✨ (@ronkisha) reported

    @O2 think they are smart always trying to overcharge me and think I won’t notice. They’re the worst company ever. DO NOT USE THEM !

  • mikedsouzamusic Mike D'Souza (@mikedsouzamusic) reported

    @O2 I have an iPhone XS where the charging port is broken with intermittent charging. Thanks to a 3 year contract I’m locked with it. Are there any repair options?

  • Oh_Em_Z Z (@Oh_Em_Z) reported

    @O2 it's been 16 working days since I redeemed the guiness I won on priority, the email states it will be dispatched within 10 working days, I've had no update can you help?

  • MaryNT16 Mary N-T (@MaryNT16) reported

    @O2 I note that you have quietly updated the website to say the price includes the saving. At least future customers won't be duped. Don't worry. I took a screenshot of the original page & included it in my @ASA_UK complaint.

  • Miss_Grundy94 Miss Grundy (@Miss_Grundy94) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @O2 I upgraded my phone today with o2. I have the same number and I was with o2 previously. The man in the shop said it would transfer over everything immediately but I have had no signal since. This was at 12pm today. Will it take 24 hours for my network to reconnect?

  • LouLou31880280 LouLou (@LouLou31880280) reported

    @O2 BYE BYE YOUR SERVICE IS STRESSFUL AND WORSE THAN SHOCKING I'M PAYING MONEY FOR ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE WORST INTERNET SPEED EVER AND CANT GET ONLINE AND YOUR CHARGING ME EXTRA FOR THESE ISSUES

  • LexTheHuman LexTheHuman 🌸 (@LexTheHuman) reported

    @O2 "We can understand your frustrations" but yet we won't actually respond to them or acknowledge any criticism of our systems, we will just send you the exact same bullshit response we send every customer so someone else can deal with it. Belter custom service that 👏🏻

  • res20stupid Oisin Hawkins (@res20stupid) reported

    @O2 Thank god. I've needed a new phone for months (microphones are broken so I can't speak on it) and every time I go to order a new one, it's out of stock on your site. At least in-store, I can choose alternatives.

  • mslukeba XT. (@mslukeba) reported

    @O2 why’s my network been cut off so suddenly?

  • matthewclucas Clucasmw (@matthewclucas) reported

    @O2 have the worst signal ever, can’t wait for my contract to end so I can **** use off
