    haha, just had an (obviously scam) phone call from someone who claimed to be from @O2 … when they asked how the service was and I said it was poor, they hung up

    @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?

  • LukeAMarsden
    Luke Marsden (@LukeAMarsden) reported from Oldham, England

    @angelak2271 @O2 I've clicked the link they gave me and it said there's a mast nearby that's not working. But it seems to be a problem across the country

  • grantmathieson

    @BruceDevlin @O2 Has she maybe assumed data protection issue

    @O2 It's always the same at work. Terrible service in a lot of places in Oldham.

    @O2 I seem to never have any internet access anywhere, even when showing 4G nothing loads and no WhatsApp’s come through

    Is it just me or is @O2 signal getting worse and worse.

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

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

    @O2 3/3 only conclusion I could reach is that your call centre staff are under pressure to make more calls and now routinely disconnect customer calls after a period of making no progress. What do you think??

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

    Kinda wonder why I use @O2 when their mobile signal in central Manchester is barely functioning. Continually timing out, drops connection 😡

  • jasonpeachey1
    Jason peachey (@jasonpeachey1) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    What is goin on with @O2 phone signal constantly dropping an 4G\5G practically non existent!!! 😳

    @EuropeanBob7 @O2 Gone right down hill o2, used to be decent. ******* hard work now.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • ShanRebec94
    Shannon (@ShanRebec94) reported from Sale, England

    @chlo3matthewman @O2 @viagogo Tickets on there for over a £1000 now, O2 clearly weren’t experiencing issues with ticket demand unless you were an ordinary customer who wanted them at face value. Very very poor

  • 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

  • anthonyewbank

    I'd like to make a complaint @O2

    @O2 my daughter, stranded abroad with no phone after a theft, has received terrible service from you. Unless you can actually support her we will be cancelling our DD and making a complaint to @Ofcom. Good customer service is not rocket science!

    Rob Baker-Johnson (@RobBakerJohnson) reported

    @O2 you are a disgrace. You failed to provide a service and charge me over £600 as you forced me to move supplier. You help or support from you at all. Didn’t even send a bill went straight to dept recovery company. Over 30 years loyal custom from me and this is how you treat us

  • Loatesy95
    STEVEN LOATES (@Loatesy95) reported

    @O2 I’ve travelled all over the place this year and I’ve just started noticing how frequent it drops off. Motorways, town centres, the whole area around my house. Not something I had issues with before but this year it seems to be getting worse

  • mclarnonc
    Christopher McLarnon (@mclarnonc) reported

    @O2 dreadful service today and yesterday as I tried to resolve a faulty iPhone 17 bought on 19 July. This phone, one of 4 on my account, has a H/W problem but you are refusing to send me a replacement device. Why?

    Shoukat Ali Kharal (@ShoukatAliKhar2) reported

    @O2 @giffgaff I kindly request you not to deactivate my SIM +44 7935 828383. I’m currently in Pakistan, but this UK number is very important to me because several of my official accounts are linked to it. Please help me keep the number active. I would really appreciate your suppo
