    @BattyeB @EE I'm afraid I can't recommend @O2 even if they have good coverage where you are... you can't get any service from them. Been trying to get through for an hour this time #notfitforourpose

  • JonHurst15 ⚽️ Jon BWFC Hurst ⚽️ (@JonHurst15) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 I have done and no joy, paying 50 odd quid a month for crap signal and crap Internet signal everywhere I go, you want to help then help me cancel my contract for a service you are not providing 👍

  • JacquiDarling Jacqueline (@JacquiDarling) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 known issue affecting quality of calls and 4G reduced to 3 G. Spoke with your Helpdesk who are aware of issue in BL3 area but no fix date. Why am i paying for a service i cant use. Been told to use wifi or hotspot. Been happening fir weeks now.

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @O2 absolutely sick of your rubbish signal in my house. every time I complain NOTHING is done. can’t wait to leave your joke of a network. I live n greater Manchester and I get better signal at my dad’s house in rural Wales 🙃

    @O2 Why are you refusing a contract to a new customer just because they don't have a credit score? Person working full time with a good pay, bank account. Why refusing a contract?

  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 how do you get through to you for a pac code. Been ringing for an eternity and still waiting. It's as if you're ignoring the call so i'll have stay. pretty cr*p service from a main mobile provider. Let me guess #hgvshortageexcuse or #covidexcuse #notfitforourpose @Offcom

  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Too little too late @o2 it shouldn't take you 90mins to answer query and your chat was unavailable... I'll go to another provider who offers a better service #notfitforourpose

  • chrisjwsmith Chris Smith (@chrisjwsmith) reported

    I’ve been experiencing probably the worst customer experience I have EVER had from @O2 ……. Without doubt the biggest disregard for customers, rude agents that never call back, useless in every way!! Is there any mobile operator who care ?? @EE @VodafoneUK

  • Matthew_SoloMid Matthew Dames (@Matthew_SoloMid) reported

    @O2 No network outages. No long weekend. Just a regular Thursday. Yet im on hold for 30 minutes listening to"We apologise for the wait, we are extremely busy" when calling into your customer care line. In what world is it ok to make customers wait this long? Understaffed!

  • baldy984 Baldy (@baldy984) reported

    Over 2 hours on chat to @O2 just to change my phone plan Absolutely embarrassing customer service.
