    @O2 Hello, my data hasn’t worked since yesterday. I’ve reset the network settings and my phone. Any ideas?

  • 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 😕

  • JPM9685 John Millington 🅙 (@JPM9685) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

  • leannt1984 Leann (@leannt1984) reported from Salford, England

    Hi @O2 I’m both a virgin media customer and have a pay monthly sim with O2 and i am struggling to sign up to Volt! Help!

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

    @O2 honestly the shittest customer service I've ever come across. Absoloutely useless when you finally do get response

  • kea11y Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

  • kjgreigy Karen Greig (@kjgreigy) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 hi i live in the postcode area OL9 , for the last 3/4 months the signal has been horrendous!! Lucky if I get 1 bar of 4G and once I can make a call I’m lucky if it doesn’t disconnect or if I move it cuts off… not great when paying a fair bit for a contract! #help

  • violetibeh Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

  • ihavtoo Ihavtoo (@ihavtoo) reported

    @NathFerguson @O2 @O2 hi, I still cannot get an Apple Watch Ultra 3 purchase to get through. Was promised a call back but no one ever did. Really poor service considering the watch needs to be tried to the same phone number.

  • DAW4 Denise Woodcock (@DAW4) reported

    @O2 unable to sign in to my account, need to respond to an email from you but your system checks my email an then goes to a blank page. Plus having to wait 2 minutes in a queue each time I try.

  • fergie69 euan ferguson (@fergie69) reported

    @O2 have forced a new login to their virgin media o2 account and now I can’t access any account info and I have to call them to sort it out ! I don’t think so !

  • JoeyBloggs8 Joey Bloggs (@JoeyBloggs8) reported

    @O2 what's happened to your customer service team?? Used to be great now it's a minimum 50 min waits for a live chat? Your chat bot is terrible and customer service call team don't even know your current offers.

  • mr_m_cox01 Matt Cox (@mr_m_cox01) reported

    @O2 please help, found suspected fraud on my account and no one at o2 is picking up the phone.

  • TheWheelOfMyCar Vik (@TheWheelOfMyCar) reported

    @wendyk1501 @O2 Jamies on EE they are really good. I’d swap if I were you. The only reason I haven’t is because on the very very rare occasion he doesn’t have service, I do. But he has service a good 99.9% vs my 60%. Is there no support for your broadband given you need it for job hunting?

  • SweeneyDougie DougieSweeney (@SweeneyDougie) reported

    @O2 has to be the worse network ever, every month problem after problem

  • christianj4mes _ (@christianj4mes) reported

    hello @O2 it's absolutely impossible to speak to a human on your customer service - one of the many reasons I'm TRYING to end my contract. How do I speak to a human please?

  • Lee_Simo89 Lee Simpson (@Lee_Simo89) reported

    5 hours trying to resolve an issue with @O2! Keep being cut off from the call centres in India every time I try to get a resolution, no attempt to call me back. I need a uk office to speak to now!

  • __sine_nomine S Esq (@__sine_nomine) reported

    @O2 Any reasons why it’s taken 4 hours plus to start an online chat? Speaking to your customer services there’s a minimum of a thirty minute hold. Going on for two days…
