  • shuttsi77 Richard Shuttleworth (@shuttsi77) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @O2 shocking service from o2 in Wilmslow. 5 new handsets through business and a few can’t be processed due to error. Assured error would be corrected today, it was but then it wasn’t. Messed up my morning yesterday, afternoon today and still two missing handsets.

  • PalmiraWorld Hello_World (@PalmiraWorld) reported

    @O2 i have tried to get in touch using the app, but apparently my question is not on the list of suggestions to start the chat. I am about to fly to Italy and would like to know if there is going to be any roaming issue, or if this is still not charged. Thanks

  • Shush72162972 Shush (@Shush72162972) reported

    @Kev30884 @O2 I managed to get through first thing yesterday by pressing the button for it being an emergency such as Fraud or stolen phone. No queue time, straight through. I don't know what's happening but it's ridiculous!

  • RonnieH85120567 Ronnie Hamilton (@RonnieH85120567) reported

    @O2 Maybe you didn’t read what I wrote! I can’t get through. O2 hung up on me. I can’t cancel online! My phone is not O2. I have a MiFi and your website can’t cope. I was told to cancel was stop paying. And you threaten me!!!!!

  • laverick_adam Adam Laverick (@laverick_adam) reported

    @O2 @decembersOurss The que and waiting time is the same so that doesn't make sense. Priority used to happen 24hours before. Time to change network i guess

  • PteachLead pteach lead (@PteachLead) reported

    @O2 can someone help? I had an email to say my phone was in the shop@to collect, went to idk it up and it wasn’t there! I’m trying to get you to send another to my home address but no one will help me.

  • ConanSmith96 Conan (@ConanSmith96) reported

    @O2 @O2 am I able to cancel my contract in any 02 store. Trying to get help is ridiculous now. People on DM's couldn't care less, telling me to call up when I've been trying and getting cut off.

  • debs_black Debbie Black (@debs_black) reported

    @O2 absolute worst telephone company, avoid at all costs! I have tried cancelling a contract now 5 times within the first 14 days, even after being contacted by the complaints department and given compensation the contract is still not cancelled, absolute joke of a company.

  • CylchDieflig Jonathan Hanks (@CylchDieflig) reported

    @O2 Your network is a shitshow run by clowns. I should have broken my 20 year O2 loyalty, and gone with EE. ******* disgusting.

  • jameeria_ Jamee Kirkpatrick (@jameeria_) reported

    @O2 That doesn't exist but a very nice person in your 'i want to cancel' line has put me in a 30-minute queue to speak to customer service. Is your service really this bad that customer service is this busy?!

  • mikemikemikef Mike (@mikemikemikef) reported

    @O2 I wish I had two phones. I don’t have another phone to try. You could be right about the phone tho I’ve had a few issues with it since so got it. It used to randomly freeze all the time and my headphones stop working the minute the wire moves.
