    Why does @O2 refuse to give you internet connection whenever there’s more than 4 people near you… Surely there’s enough infrastructure in Manchester to support 4G?! Every single time I’m in a city centre, my data just doesn’t work. It’s a joke

    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?

    @O2 hoping you can help. I need a replacement sim. I can’t call as I don’t have a working sim. The chat says they can’t get me a replacement unless I can receive a text. Can’t receive a text as I don’t have a sim. Can’t go to a store either so hoping you know a different route!

    Kieren Bushnell (@kbushnell1975) reported

    @O2 You utterly useless clowns. There is no option to send a messag via private message, as surely anyone in your shoddy organisation should know. You are an utter disgrace and if this is the way you treat customers of 20 years plus, you are very much going down in my esteem.
