    @O2 2/2 both occasions the call centres were noisy. Call centre operative didn’t speak very god English. Both operatives complaining their systems were slow or not working at all and putting me on hold for long periods.

    @O2 why is the signal strength in #Middleton?? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking!! There’s loads of people wanting to change supplier

  • JMcKnighty
    ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported from Manchester, England

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

    @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

    Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi, my 4G signal over the last few months has been dreadful. I’m currently sitting with 3 bars of 4G and waiting about 10-20 seconds for a picture to download. I thought it was just me but seen plenty others complaining.

  • 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?

  • Mrs_G_Bowen
    Just Gem 💙 (@Mrs_G_Bowen) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 I have no issue with waiting so long as you will have it in stock? I was told next Saturday on the phone for delivery this am and then received an email to say it's not in stock. Hence the confusion 😕

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

  • 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!

    Hey @O2, even Pitbull cancelled his concert in Riga last minute due to "technical issues", but somehow your roaming network is putting on an even worse performance. Stuck on 'No Service' in Latvia with a fully paid contract. Can a human DM me to fix this backend glitch?

  • davidlondon92
    David (@davidlondon92) reported

    @O2 I’m roaming in the US on my ultimate plan and the 5G is painfully slow. I just realised you cap the speed at 2 mbps, which renders it pretty useless. Can I even buy a bolt on to remove the throttle? Not sure why I pay for an ultimate plan if your speed is so abysmal

  • Rez1362510
    Rez (@Rez1362510) reported

    Hey @O2 why is your network really bad in the south west? It’s brilliant up north, however Burnham on Sea, Bridgwater Shockingly bad.

    @O2 had a call from what appeared to be an actual number from o2 stating that you’re shutting my sim down in a so many days due to the merge with virgin it’ll be deactivated I’ve contacted you and made you aware just want to share it for others and see if you are

  • SarahWM45
    Sarah H (@SarahWM45) reported

    Been trying to talk to @o2 for over a week about releasing us from a £189 early termination charge, as had no service or signal from O2 for near 2 years. No call from them. Yet today we received an enforcement notice. Awful customer service @MartinSLewis

  • andyps1275
    Andy Sherratt (@andyps1275) reported

    @Osprey0 @O2 Used to be that Virgin were the go-to for being the customer champion, since they merged with O2 that isn't the case. Puts me off moving home internet to them.

  • JohnnyFocal
    Jon Thompson (@JohnnyFocal) reported

    Let’s tell the tale of @O2 “Ultimate” package, supposedly its ultimate offer. I took O2 up on it and received precisely zero mobile data. I asked them to fix the problem. They assured me they would investigate and sort it out. What happened next? They cut my phone off completely. I have gone from having no mobile data to having no service at all. What on earth is O2 doing? This is not an “Ultimate” service. It is an ultimate shambles. Sort it out, O2.

    @JamesBlatch @O2 Wifi in Hinch is terrible and not just in the hopsital!

  • CraiginKent
    Craig (@CraiginKent) reported

    @O2 does anyone want a free @iphone 17 Pro because I have tried to return this new handset to O2 four times and they completely screw up the collection of handset. I’ve also tried calling 02 to discuss four times and their customer services are inept. I’m giving it away now.
