James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, EnglandHello @O2 your network coverage across the UK is awful: there’s about one street in Manchester where I get a useable 4G signal and nowhere else. Definitely isn’t my device as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

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.
-
Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England@O2 3/3 only conclusion I could reach is that your call centre staff are under pressure to make more calls and now routinely disconnect customer calls after a period of making no progress. What do you think??

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.
