    @O2 I’ve not had access to the network all day, what’s going on? It would have been good to be notified of issues. Really not happy 😠 I’m due for an upgrade, might have to@consider switching to another network

  • ZackHallam
    Zack Hallam 🐝 (@ZackHallam) reported from Manchester, England

    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

  • chrisrogan
    Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, England

    Pee'd off at @GreggsOfficial and @O2 three weeks in a row with priority debacle. One week over charged, last week paid for my own this week walked out. Staff not trained in the offer and Greggs not responding to customer service emails. More Greggs issue than o2.

    Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

    This Christmas, @O2 is donating data to those who need it. For every tweet using #O2DataPledge this Giving Tuesday, they'll donate even more data to the National Databank. Tap below to tweet your support 👇

    @Allan2111272 @O2 It was so atrocious that their own network app couldn’t work

  • 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?

  • dtackley
    Daniel Tackley (@dtackley) reported from Bury, England

    Oh what a surprise. @O2 have yet again failed to take my direct debit payment. Every month I call and they assure me the next payment will be taken but it never has. Sheer incompetence!

    @O2 hi guys, I've not had a signal for 2 weeks, got a sick relative and a signal, please help!! Post code BL52LF

  • Gsd1Omara
    Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 why is the signal in #Middleton so poor??? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking signal. I know loads of people wanting to change supplier #notgood #sortitout

    There are serious mobile phone signal issues in Middleton and it needs sorting and ******* properly @O2

  • BlennerK

    Hello @O2 is there a problem with the network? My calls aren’t going through.

  • DAbrahamNewman
    Dominic Abraham-Newman (@DAbrahamNewman) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 as a last resort I am tweeting following extremely poor support from your contact centre who I am not getting anywhere with despite numerous calls. I need urgent support with a query which has left me £119 out of pocket following fraudulent activity. Please contact me asap!

  • 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 👍

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

    @O2 Also sorry - but what’s the point in telling me to use a network checker if you don’t accept the results of the checker? That’s literally your app I’m using and it’s giving me terrible results.

    @O2 Hi, since Dec all my incoming calls show as UNKNOWN in caller ID & call history. I've tried resetting my phone, swapping the SIM to another phone - issue persists. Seems like a network/account issue. Can you look into this or reset my account settings? Thanks.

  • JPBOLDY
    JonTheJoker76 (@JPBOLDY) reported

    @O2 so prices have increased and I've got absolutely rubbish service, supposed to he on 5g plus service max speed mobile data 0.5meg and 1 bar on mobile for voice, time to go to another provider when contract ends in june

  • Colin_H1972
    Colin H (@Colin_H1972) reported

    @Joff_L @O2 Upgrade offers are never good. Was cheaper for me to go to PAYG than upgrade to the deal they offered me on my SIMO plan.

  • SoccerSportvas
    Selahattin Karaman (@SoccerSportvas) reported

    I regret switching to O2. Despite showing full 5G signal across London, my internet barely works. Pages won’t load, WhatsApp just keeps buffering, and basic browsing is almost impossible. I’ve contacted customer support multiple times. @O2

  • cambridgebarber
    Seán Lawlor (Cambridge Barbershop) (@cambridgebarber) reported

    Last message from @O2 was March 27th with still no call back, still no resolution and still MORE problems arising. What the hell is going on? Can't upgrade or can't get a new subscription as pending problems from O2 still blocking me from doing so.

    Sn✴wy 💬 (@snowy_1982) reported

    @O2 Why is your company so difficult to work with? Your customer service is a joke, you are an embarrassment and you should be ashamed, the mistreatment of my wife I've just heard is abhorrent and you are a bunch of con men.
