    @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?

  • 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 👍

  • 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

  • jessslee_ Jess (@jessslee_) reported from Walkden, England

  • liam0046 Liam Wright (@liam0046) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 honestly the shittest customer service I've ever come across. Absoloutely useless when you finally do get response

  • 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

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

    @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

  • 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 🙃

  • mrusmanhussain USMΛN HUSSΛIN (@mrusmanhussain) reported from Manchester, England

    Pathetic service at @O2 moving networks over 20 years

  • CherylManley14 Cheryl Manley (@CherylManley14) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 due a phone call from an engineer looking into my account at the very latest today. Rang in, lost signal, advisor had to call me back. Still nothing but yet bet you’ll take payment on time for poor service

    @actionfrauduk @HSBC_UK @O2 Thank you very much. I have never clicked on any links. I always report to O2 and block sender but messages keep coming through.

  • AbigailRennie abigail rennie (@AbigailRennie) reported

  • ThatSabrinaGirl Sabrina 🇰🇪 (@ThatSabrinaGirl) reported

    @O2 Help! My Disney+ link came through and I made an account but it keeps freezing and not logging me in 😩

  • nikkirachey21 Nikki Hardaker (@nikkirachey21) reported

    @O2 In an continuation of excellent customer service, we have now been cut off after being transferred to a new department. When does this become grounds for termination of services?

  • Chris55306077 Chris (@Chris55306077) reported

    @PhilippaJaine @O2 Ive had accounts with O2 for nearly 20 years but after renewing the contract 9 months ago never again. They are happy to take payments but no interest in providing a phone that works. An iPhoneXR costing £800 is now a paper weight. I've been conned by this company!

  • sch13 Stephen (@sch13) reported

    @O2 I received a letter on sat 3rd April, say 02 would be closing my account, "unless we hear from you by the 5 May 2021", I rang customer services straight away to say I have a Paid Up Front For Life Account and I still use it, but they didn't understand. Who should I contact?

  • Ne0nnet 🖤 Kate 💛 Ne0nnet 🖤 (@Ne0nnet) reported from Croydon, England

    Struggling with my 2 month old @SamsungMobile #s21 bought with you @O2 .... I've tried calling but my phone keeps cutting the connection off. I think the RAM is faulty as I can't run more than one app at a time (my S10 does with ease) please help!!

  • Lundqvist_dj Stuart Lundqvist (@Lundqvist_dj) reported

    Great customer service from @o2 took over 2hours and 30mins and still haven’t been upgraded! Trying to make me take a new contract to charge me more! #stayclassy

  • harvey30694171 harvey (@harvey30694171) reported

    @O2 can’t believe I’ve been cut off 3 times from customer service and still didn’t get a call back every time I call back you cut me off. I guess im lucky to be in my cooling off period oh and somehow dhl have lost the phone.

  • Chris55306077 Chris (@Chris55306077) reported

    @CFOXY5 @adz232 @O2 Your not the only one who is angry. I got an iphone XR off them 9 months ago. It doesn't connect to mobile or data & is now a paperweight. 02 refuse to even look at it let alone repair or replace the peice of junk. The customer services won't even tr me to the repairs department
