  • kml1959 Kevin Lewis (@kml1959) reported from Stockport, England

    You just have to love @O2 one of the most grasping dishonest companies on the planet...they overcharge my business by £80. (their own error) .never apologise but expect you to pay the bill in full and then wait for a credit...what a joke outfit, cancelling all contracts Monday

  • _chris_a Chris (@_chris_a) reported from Manchester, England

    As if the network congestion issues in many parts of the country weren't bad enough @O2 have excelled themselves with dire customer service agents. I'm named on my husband's account but one agent shouted at me you only deal with the account holder and then hung up.

  • TrickyLad Richard Kirkham (@TrickyLad) reported from Manchester, England

    just seen there’s something called #O2Surprise, been with @O2 and their previous incarnations since 2003 and all I’ve ever had is sh*tty reception and bad service, or is that the surprise 🤔

  • bolgamy sarcastic bastard (@bolgamy) reported from Manchester, England

    For months I have been complaining about @O2 network. Central Manchester, Bolton Town Centre, Liverpool Town Centre, Edinburgh, Glasgow, etc... I pay over £300 for that privilege. And now you want to reducing the customer loyalty discount...this customer won’t be loyal!!

  • pammie02 Pam Nunn (@pammie02) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 How is the quickest ans easiest way to make a complaint!! 😡

  • yannickmcosta Yannick McCabe-Costa (@yannickmcosta) reported from Stockport, England

    @NatWest_Help @Scott_Helme Sure. Problem is there is no MSISDN associated to this text, it's just a string with "BankAlert"so without help from @O2 to trace the originator, not much to do. Same with calls from unallocated numbers. You could contact @Equinix / Telecity to whom that IP range is allocated.

  • Hoiskiez Matt (@Hoiskiez) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Chris_Stroud @O2 I really don’t blame you! I’ll be doing the same! Always had problems with o2 in Manchester ... I have no idea why!

  • VivienneNewt0n Vivienne Newton (@VivienneNewt0n) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 £38 for an iPhone 7 handset only in store at Bolton. MyO2 offer is £38 phone and handset. I’m disabled & would have liked support face2face but the assistant said they can’t compete with online deals!! That’s ridiculous! @PiratePaul2705

  • VivienneNewt0n Vivienne Newton (@VivienneNewt0n) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 yet again I’m let down by you - ordered an upgrade & chose a phone in stock. Then told the phone was out of stock - but I can’t change my order!! Disabled, going on holiday & needed the phone 😡@PiratePaul2705

  • bsdesigned Brent Starling (BS) (@bsdesigned) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Constant drop out in the centre of Manchester due to congestion. Got told by a representative that: After speaking with our Network Service Team, the level of service you’re receiving is the expected level within that area. And it's part of T's and C's.. So tough luck.

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @EE Hi JT. Not yet I’m focussed on having my £742 back from @O2 then I will have a look and start a contract. The customer service and signal is appalling from O2 so I’m looking forward to changing to a reputable service provider.

  • thejimirving Jim Irving (@thejimirving) reported from Manchester, England

    Oh, of course, I’m in the middle of a major city, it makes sense that my @O2 service would be completely useless.

  • cicismith81 Careen 'Cici' Smith (@cicismith81) reported from Manchester, England

    Message to @O2 There is NO need for any CSA to hang up on me because I corrected you. I’m now having to pay extra money because a CSA ****** up. And you won’t do a damm thing about it.

  • oneladyshow Charlie (@oneladyshow) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 I have asked you guys to sort it repeatedly and it’s never fixed. Your advice was ‘use 3g’ but even that doesn’t work. :( I have been with you guys for 14 years and im disappointed you haven’t fixed my problem

  • franclayton58 Fran Clayton (@franclayton58) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @O2 incompetent at sorting out a query despite our attempts#gdpr issue set up more than one direct debit without authority

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @carleyjones1 @O2 No! I never use all my data or minutes. The bill for May- which comes out on 11th June, was only £38 something. I checked the app and I’m up to date. There is no reason to take such a large amount. I can’t even talk after having my tonsils out, it’s a pain in the arse x

  • JennaHorridge_x Jenna Horridge ☮ (@JennaHorridge_x) reported from Manchester, England

    Why is the signal for @O2 in @manairport shocking & has been for days! 😠

  • Hoiskiez Matt (@Hoiskiez) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Chris_Stroud @O2 Oh god please don’t start me on this!! I’m glad it’s not just me that has issues! It is totally shocking & they never have an answer on how and when they are going to make it work! Terrible! I call them #NO2

  • JonNutten Jon Nutten (@JonNutten) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 Not what your customer service staff offered. 😕 typical of @o2businessuk

  • _SonOfTheDesert Kaiser Soothsays (@_SonOfTheDesert) reported

    @O2 Data is unusable where I am (Milan). As stated, I get 3G but can’t use it, all apps say phone is not connected to network. Irony is my wife is with @tescomobile and is getting 5G. Crossed into Switzerland today and got 5G halfway up a mountain but can’t use phone in Milan. 🤷

  • PokerDaz9 Daren Taylor (@PokerDaz9) reported from Radipole, England

    The @O2 network has to be the worst ever. Even with a strong 4G signal, you still can’t get any data use!!! Certainly over subscribed. #notfitforpurpose #OFCOM

  • Itslaurajane89 Laura Jane Minto (@Itslaurajane89) reported

    @O2 2/2 from the o2 shop in Durham, he couldn't have been more helpful and did go over and above to help me this morning!

  • michelle_moomin Michelle Annie (@michelle_moomin) reported

    @O2 Absolutely shocking service at your Cribbs Causeway branch. So much so, a lady followed me from the store to say she had the same issues with them.

  • 6thGrom Grom McGromface The 6th (@6thGrom) reported

    @O2 Apologies. With the fold you don’t offer loss or theft. Only accidental damage

  • JamRuler89 James (@JamRuler89) reported

    @O2 Barely getting 3G while my wife is getting 5G on another network. Why can’t O2 improve in Lanarkshire?

  • tony_sutton Tony Sutton (@tony_sutton) reported

    Paid for 24 hours of Data SIM with @O2 which was activated straight away and clock counting down. Never worked, even after many device reboots and trying various O2 profiles. Tweeted & DM'ed @O2 - no reply. 24 hours is expiring soon. Waste of money. :/

  • Itslaurajane89 Laura Jane Minto (@Itslaurajane89) reported

    @O2 It's OK, I've been into my local o2 store this morning. Turns out @SamsungUK just lies to their customers and you don't take a contract out with o2 tiu just their network, turns out samsung use a third party network provider! However do want to give a shout out to Jack from the

  • ajameson1008 Amy Jameson (@ajameson1008) reported

    @kellyja90235455 @O2 Me too! Two contracts taken out fraudulently and can’t speak to customer services unless I pay the fraudulent account! Seems to have happened to lots. I’ve never been an o2 customer! So stressful

  • Barbara82580398 Barbara Mooney (@Barbara82580398) reported

    @O2 my voucher for a sausage roll said it had been used but I never used it yet
