    @O2 incompetent at sorting out a query despite our attempts#gdpr issue set up more than one direct debit without authority

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • pammie02 Pam Nunn (@pammie02) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 How is the quickest ans easiest way to make a complaint!! 😡

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • _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.

  • 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!!

  • 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

  • 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!

  • TrickyLad Richard Kirkham (@TrickyLad) reported from Manchester, England

    just seen there’s something called #O2Surprise, been with @O2 and their previous incarnations since 2003 and all I’ve ever had is sh*tty reception and bad service, or is that the surprise 🤔

  • 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

  • 305WA12 WESLEY D WOOLFALL ⭐⭐⭐🌟🌟 (@305WA12) reported from Lymm, England

    I seem at times the network not found in Parts in Lymm head out EE not Work ok at times around Warrington in it not weather what make Mobiles that away @EE @O2 it Good you both work side of each over =)) looking forward to 5G

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

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

  • 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.

  • sarahhunter25 sarah hunter (@sarahhunter25) reported from Durham, England

    .@O2 customer services are no help at all. I can't pay my bill over the app or online as it says payment being processed when no payment has been made despite attempts. Now getting emails saying I'll be charged of no payment is received. I'm trying to make a payment but no help.

  • sl0wrush liv (@sl0wrush) reported

    @O2 been in Italy since last night and still no service. have tried every troubleshooting step online and no luck. shouldn’t have any roaming bars on the account but can’t call as no service nor is the web chat working

  • johnemangan1 John mangan (@johnemangan1) reported from Atherstone, England

    @O2 Ok, I cannot check service when I’m driving, A5 and M42 are main roads, similar places every time, surely you know where your own network is poor and what are you doing to address it?

  • arc_marine ARC Marine (@arc_marine) reported

    @O2 Hi how is the area TQ1 2DD? No signal is apparent

  • femmebop jes she/her (@femmebop) reported

    @O2 is the service down? No calls and no customer service?

  • NMatinier Nicolas Matinier (@NMatinier) reported

    @O2 @_southhh Same here. I'm experiencing the same issue, haven't had signal for days now. Because its my main number, I am now locked out of many things requiring security checks (bank etc...) via sms. The fact that you are not even willing to give a ETA is crazy. This is totally unacceptable

  • KennyStephenson Kenny Stephenson (@KennyStephenson) reported

    @O2 there’s been no signal in the bucks area for hours! What’s going on?

  • maggiemoo1977 maggie smith (@maggiemoo1977) reported

    @O2 i have been on hold to your customer services number for 45 mins now! Trying to resolve the fact that my nee service hasn’t yet been in use and its almost 2 weeks since I took the contract! Looks like I will be cancelling and taking my business elsewhere !

  • _southhh Alisha Soufflé (@_southhh) reported

    @O2 I purchased a new phone, I’ve had no signal for 2 days. I went into the O2 shop who couldn’t help me and called your customer care line on a friends phone, who promised me a call back (I’m not sure how, I don’t have a working number) - can someone help me?

  • johnemangan1 John mangan (@johnemangan1) reported from Atherstone, England

    @O2 good afternoon, frustration is too much , can you update me on why I cannot make a simple call without it dropping off more than once driving from work in CV9 to B31 down major roads A5 and M42
