    @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 👍

  • 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

  • miss_scw Miss C-W (@miss_scw) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 absolutely sick of your rubbish signal in my house. every time I complain NOTHING is done. can’t wait to leave your joke of a network. I live n greater Manchester and I get better signal at my dad’s house in rural Wales 🙃

  • liam0046 Liam Wright (@liam0046) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 your customer service is actually the worst

  • jessslee_ Jess (@jessslee_) reported from Walkden, England

    @O2 hi, my mobile date isn’t working and hasn’t been for some hours. No issues in area, and everything looks normal, please help 🥱

  • BlennerK Kathryn Blennerhassett (@BlennerK) reported from Manchester, England

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

  • lucyolix lucy (@lucyolix) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 is the signal down in Salford? Data isn’t working and the signal is either none or just one

  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 how do you get through to you for a pac code. Been ringing for an eternity and still waiting. It's as if you're ignoring the call so i'll have stay. pretty cr*p service from a main mobile provider. Let me guess #hgvshortageexcuse or #covidexcuse #notfitforourpose @Offcom

  • 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

  • mrusmanhussain USMΛN HUSSΛIN (@mrusmanhussain) reported from Manchester, England

    Pathetic service at @O2 moving networks over 20 years

  • miss_scw Miss C-W (@miss_scw) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 yet more poor signal on your network in my area, really fed up now.

  • mars_silva_ Márcio Silva (@mars_silva_) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 just wondering about your masts in Ashton-under-Lyne which have been failing for a few days now. Data is almost never working this week, and I have no other way of accessing the internet

  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone got any suggestions on how to get a pac code from @O2 it's next to impossible to get through. Surely this is against @Offcom code of conduct? A comms network company that won't take customer calls!?! Anyone else having this problem? #ukmobile

  • JacquiDarling Jacqueline (@JacquiDarling) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 known issue affecting quality of calls and 4G reduced to 3 G. Spoke with your Helpdesk who are aware of issue in BL3 area but no fix date. Why am i paying for a service i cant use. Been told to use wifi or hotspot. Been happening fir weeks now.

  • tinytimwild Victor Wild (@tinytimwild) reported from Oldham, England

  • couser85 Daniel Couser (@couser85) reported from Bury, England

    @O2 why is the my o2 not working. Haven’t been able to use it for over a week!

  • Julio_Afonso522 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?

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

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

  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Too little too late @o2 it shouldn't take you 90mins to answer query and your chat was unavailable... I'll go to another provider who offers a better service #notfitforourpose

  • 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

  • kellyking1987 Kelly Sanderson (@kellyking1987) reported

    @O2 I didn’t think it was yourselves. I was quite rude to the woman 🤬

  • kyelodge kyelodge (@kyelodge) reported

    @O2 @GreggsOfficial Hi! My mother is facing troubles as she cannot cancel her contract due to the account being originally made in someone else's name and that person is unwilling to cooperate to change it to my mother's name.

  • Bevg25203909 Bevg (@Bevg25203909) reported

    @O2 Well @o2 just spoke to the payment team-totally unhelpful -they referred me to customer service and actually cut me off instead 😥. I will be taking this to the financial Ombudsman. Why send an enforcement letter for cancelling a contract-NO MISSED PAYMENT

  • gareth90 garethevansdj (@gareth90) reported

    @O2 Nothing can help if being on the phone with 4 different people didn’t solve the issue 😟

  • Hathor32563459 Hathor (@Hathor32563459) reported

    @O2 are toxic. They treat people like sewage. Cue the ‘sorry you feel that way’ dismissal.

  • bigkehoesy Mac Eochaidh (@bigkehoesy) reported

    @Chriscolson82 @O2 Awful customer service and 3 year contracts pal I have changed pal 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  • nikinkendal fraser (@nikinkendal) reported

    @O2 you are the worst company I’ve ever felt with thanks for nothing

  • gareth90 garethevansdj (@gareth90) reported

    @O2 is **** pass it on

  • GavinBooth23 Gavin Booth (@GavinBooth23) reported

    @O2 Dear o2 I have been waiting for a call back for 4 weeks from your credit file referrals team. What’s happening with your service?

  • aaronjay_b Aaron (@aaronjay_b) reported

    @O2 trying to pay off my device plan on the app and it’s not allowing me so I’ve called 202 and I’ve been on hold for 20 minutes. Do they close at 5 if so I’ll hang up now!
