  • RJakesEU
    Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 when are you going to fix the mobile signal in Manchester? Hardly anything in the city centre and I need to rely on Wi-Fi. Definitely not worth what I’m currently paying for it

  • Josh_Deegan
    Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 has less than 20 mins to sort their app out. Come on guys, this is so bad

    Julio Afonso 🇲🇿 🇵🇹 🇪🇺🇨🇭 (@Julio_Afonso522) reported from Manchester, England

    @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?

  • 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

  • PerryClaire27
    Claire 🖤 (@PerryClaire27) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 sort your **** signal out, £70 a month for this bullshit

  • kjgreigy
    Karen Greig (@kjgreigy) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 hi i live in the postcode area OL9 , for the last 3/4 months the signal has been horrendous!! Lucky if I get 1 bar of 4G and once I can make a call I’m lucky if it doesn’t disconnect or if I move it cuts off… not great when paying a fair bit for a contract! #help

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Well I said I am having problems with my 4g, you told me to follow the guide which told me to use the network checker, I showed you the results of the network checker and you said 4G isn’t about speeds. So what’s the point in telling me to use the network checker?

  • SimpaticoGem
    Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • 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

  • eagleeyedferret
    Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes the original problem is still not resolved. Can you DM me please to sort it out as I’m not wasting any more time with your shocking overseas call centres. Have you not realised by now they are a false economy?

    @O2 Some third parties are permanently able to run cheaper deals than @O2 can - make it make sense… I was promised a call back in relation to my complaint which remains outstanding. I was meant to be called yesterday

  • KimmyMurray1982
    Kimmy Murray (@KimmyMurray1982) reported

    So I sent my phone back to @O2 & surprise they said no fault. Had it back & surprise still faulty. Can someone please give me contact information of where to make a complaint regarding this?

  • Uptowndiscos
    Uptown entertainment discos (@Uptowndiscos) reported

    @O2 Thank you. However after spending two and a half hours on the phone to a call centre from India and I could not understand a word and they kept interrupting me, I got absolutely nowhere. Just thought business customers paid extra and got a better service.?

  • Chris_L95
    Chris (@Chris_L95) reported

  • sar0dev
    Sarah Devlin (@sar0dev) reported

    @O2 So when will your service be at an acceptable level?

  • yallsop
    Dr Yasemin Allsop MBE (@yallsop) reported

    @O2 I wasn’t either. I was locked out of my account and I contacted your customer service, that’s what they told me, surely you would have recording of the conversation.

  • jameshullfc

    @O2 @paultownsend81 Zero signal on newland ave Hull for 20 years. Your coverage checker lies

  • Waxlyricist
    Chris (@Waxlyricist) reported

    @O2 you should be totally ashamed of providing a so called 5G service in Brighton - it’s ******* shambolic - 3G was better! Charging extra for this is just a total rip off!

  • SaulCorrigan
    Saul Corrigan (@SaulCorrigan) reported

  • SiobheanG
    Siobhean 🖤 (@SiobheanG) reported

    @StevieDee710 @O2 Unless you're paying up a phone on a contract...(something I'd never do tbh) you should only be paying around a tenner a month...we're all usually £5/£12 a month each for our phones
