    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

    @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

    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @O2 your network coverage across the UK is awful: there’s about one street in Manchester where I get a useable 4G signal and nowhere else. Definitely isn’t my devise as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • sonnisamosa
    Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes it says 4G, I have no idea what’s going on. Is there an issue certain areas possibly?

  • liammcdon97
    Liam McDonald (@liammcdon97) reported from Stockport, England

    £40 a month for @O2 and can't even get any signal majority of the time. Absolute jokers.

  • eagleeyedferret
    Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 2/2 both occasions the call centres were noisy. Call centre operative didn’t speak very god English. Both operatives complaining their systems were slow or not working at all and putting me on hold for long periods.

  • 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!

  • ZackHallam
    Zack Hallam 🐝 (@ZackHallam) reported from Manchester, England

    Why does @O2 refuse to give you internet connection whenever there’s more than 4 people near you… Surely there’s enough infrastructure in Manchester to support 4G?! Every single time I’m in a city centre, my data just doesn’t work. It’s a joke

    @tescomobile @o2 Your mobile signal is getting worse. Terrible 😞 in Brentwood-appently broken mast for MONTHS, now really noticing it elsewhere. I am losing money as I have to take payments via my mobile connection. Are you going to fix it or do I move on?

  • adelevaughanxo
    Adele Vaughan (@adelevaughanxo) reported

    @O2 can someone please contact me about an ongoing complaint! I cannot get a clear answer from anyone 🤯

  • itsnotgracelolz
    grace (@itsnotgracelolz) reported

    Hi @O2, I am on PAYG and topped up. Why am I getting an error when trying to log in to Priority followed by a text message telling me to top up to continue enjoying Priority? I have money in my balance & I have tried deleting the app and reinstalling it. Please help!

  • emma_hawker
    Emma Hawker (@emma_hawker) reported

    @O2 apologies if I misspell the name but I just spoke with someone called Oshama on the 4445 number and she has helped resolved a problem I’ve had for weeks that’s been really frustrating and getting me down, I can’t thank her enough, it’s finally being resolved 🥲🙏🏼

  • JohnnyFocal
    Jon Thompson (@JohnnyFocal) reported

    Ok - what has @o2 done to fix their mistake of trying to improve my service by cutting me off? Absolutely nothing - ultimately useless

  • Lewis_1417
    Lewis (@Lewis_1417) reported

    Hey @O2. You have the worst account management system of any phone provider I have ever had the displeasure of using. Why is there no way to change the default payment method. Instead you just send threatening texts saying I’m going to be cut off.

  • Bolton1214C
    P.c (@Bolton1214C) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Left them this week went to EE 02 is the worst ever now

    @O2 without exception my experience with you has been the worst of any company I’ve ever been involved with. Absolutely diabolical!

  • mitchhirsty
    Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported

    @Lucozade3D @O2 Look O2, another person who is getting the same issue when trying to pay the bill. Surely you know this is widespread by now! Sort it out and stop blaming your customers for your mistakes!

  • Hughtying
    Hugh (@Hughtying) reported

    @Happyengland79 @O2 @BBCWatchdog That is utterly shameless. Admitting you're right just to pull the exact same stunt again is pure bad faith. Drop the formal deadlock letter and take them straight to the Ombudsman—they can't just keep raiding your credit!
