    @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.

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

    What a waste of space @o2 Now the site has crashed after giving me a code finally, totally unacceptable customer service #PeterKayLive

  • 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

    @O2 is the signal down in Salford? Data isn’t working and the signal is either none or just one

    @joe_fush @O2 I've been trying to log into my @O2 account and you keep sending me text messages with codes on to log me in, but with absolutely zero signal I can not receive the codes to access my account 🥴

    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?

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @O2 I messaged earlier and you managed to help me with my query, I’ve since sent another DM but have not received any reply. I messaged as my husband lost his phone so you blocked it for me. It has now been returned by the taxi driver so he requires the phone unlocking please

    Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported from Manchester, England

    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

  • AbiClarey
    Abi (@AbiClarey) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 I seem to never have any internet access anywhere, even when showing 4G nothing loads and no WhatsApp’s come through

    @TakeThatClouds @O2 They all do the same thing. They know you don’t have service but can’t help you until you give them a code text to the phone with no service. ******* idiots all of them.

  • SarahWM45
    Sarah H (@SarahWM45) reported

    Two years of no service from @O2. Two years of paying two contracts to them despite this. And still they want £189 early exit fee. Have been waiting 2 weeks for a call back!! Lots of promises, no call. Yet have received an enforcement notice!! Intentional possibly?@MartinSLewis?

  • Jade66755388
    Jade (@Jade66755388) reported

    @O2 Avoid at all costs! Put in a complaint about the non existent signal at home to be told a ridiculous response time. When I finally get a response they want to call me but can’t tell me when… I HAVE NO SIGNAL! Told me it’s resolved now, but my 1 bar says otherwise..! Sort it!

    in honour of ariana’s london shows starting can we talk about how @O2 encourages overnight camping by making the priority queue only the first 100 people? it’s advertised as “skip the queues” yet you’re encouraging camping with this stupid rule. shame on you

  • ChrisUK1980
    Chris Hammond (@ChrisUK1980) reported

    @TakeThatClouds @O2 When it was BT / cellnet it was great and since sold out have been crap. Example : A mast replacement was needed as it was broken/ vandalized and cause their system said nothing wrong with it (literally) they wouldn't send anyone. Took a year and still not done **** it goodbye

  • Sc077as
    Scott (@Sc077as) reported

    @O2 your phone coverage is absolutely diabolical!!! Sat in Bristol airport and have 4g and it’s about as much use as a chocolate fire guard. Pay for a 5g service and get nothing anywhere. Shambolic. #nO2

    @O2 maybe you should hire more staff that can answer the phones for customer service
