    @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 👍

  • 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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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!

  • LastMinuteLeese Leese 🇬🇧 (@LastMinuteLeese) reported from Mossley, England

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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 🙃

  • 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 🥱

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

    @O2 Why do they have my details to begin with??? Also can you fix the 3G/4G issues please while we’re vaguely on the subject. Thanks 🙏🏻

  • david4charnock David charnock (@david4charnock) reported

    @usukgoose @O2 Or any signal anywhere

  • usukgoose Ian Brown - New Town Independent. (@usukgoose) reported

    @O2 And never recieve any actual customer service from o2

  • mattdenchfield Matt Denchfield (@mattdenchfield) reported

    Even @O2 retention team admit the charges are higher than they should be and it’s odd they cannot be explained by customer services…I’ve seen no evidence of where this data usage has come from @Ofcom

  • RealTilfsworld Gemma 'Dun an Doras' Tarr (@RealTilfsworld) reported

    @O2 I hate to break it to you, but when a customer is already listed as vulnerable, her bill is overdue and you make it so she can't even call your customer service, maybe don't send threatening texts? I've tried every other way of getting in touch, this is my last hope. Help me.

  • Hayley_M_jones Hayley hughes (@Hayley_M_jones) reported

    @O2 seriously need to sort your service out. Pay a fortune and nebr works says I have 4g when I clearly don't not like I'm in the middle of nowhere been with you 20+ years 4 phones looks like I'll be looking to someone who can provide what I actually pay for no 4g never mind 5g

  • simplychloe_ chloé 🥀 (@simplychloe_) reported

    @O2 Missing having data signal in my area like I miss it working 4 months ago 💔

  • usukgoose Ian Brown - New Town Independent. (@usukgoose) reported

    11 days ago a technical issue affected my @o2 accounts. I've made 5 hours worth of calls. Been referred to IT 5 times. Been requesting a manager call back 5 times. And nothing ever happens. No callbacks. No IT sorting it. I use this phone to work....

  • prettypinkwitch PrettyPinkWitch Laura (@prettypinkwitch) reported

    @O2 on 22/08 I got an automated email saying my complaint had been received and that I’d get a reply within 7 days. It’s now been 14 days and I’ve had nothing. Not very happy. Please can someone reply?

  • Jazzy_Nazzy Jazzy_Nazzy (@Jazzy_Nazzy) reported

    @O2 Imagine a company using twitter as the only customer service touchpoint and not even implementing an automoted twit bot to manage out of hours queries
