    @O2 3/3 only conclusion I could reach is that your call centre staff are under pressure to make more calls and now routinely disconnect customer calls after a period of making no progress. What do you think??

  • AtlasSailing

    @O2 Work was meant to be completed last week! Do I move to a better mobile company or are you going to improve the service???

  • 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

    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?

    @O2 hi, how do I cancel a contract within the 14 day cooling off period please?

  • 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 😕

  • Gsd1Omara
    Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 why is the signal in #Middleton so poor??? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking signal. I know loads of people wanting to change supplier #notgood #sortitout

    @O2 is the signal down in Salford? Data isn’t working and the signal is either none or just one

  • JacquiDarling
    Jacqueline (@JacquiDarling) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 known issue affecting quality of calls and 4G reduced to 3 G. Spoke with your Helpdesk who are aware of issue in BL3 area but no fix date. Why am i paying for a service i cant use. Been told to use wifi or hotspot. Been happening fir weeks now.

  • JonHurst15
    ⚽️ Jon BWFC Hurst ⚽️ (@JonHurst15) reported from Bolton, England

    @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 👍

  • DaveWrigh
    Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

  • SimpaticoGem
    Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

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

    @O2 No 4G barely works! I never get through a phone call without it cutting out

  • 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

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

    @O2 Yes the original problem is still not resolved. Can you DM me please to sort it out as I’m not wasting any more time with your shocking overseas call centres. Have you not realised by now they are a false economy?

  • aflanagancarter
    Amy Rowland (@aflanagancarter) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 what is with no service in Manchester?! So bad and un safe!

  • Lukehear
    Luke Davies (@Lukehear) reported

    @O2 why can't I DM you? I've got terrible connectivity this weekend (in the Gretna area), is there maintenance going on? I rely on O2 for Internet and Streaming services (as the broadband here is worse than mobile signal..) and usually it is JUST about sufficient to use O2.

  • TDHarnetty
    Talib Dean Harnetty (@TDHarnetty) reported

    @O2 is such a crap network for signal

  • Victrix75
    Vix Southgate 🦊 (@Victrix75) reported

    @O2 He spent 40mins on the call, but apparently now has a SIM card in the post. 🤯 Good job he's not vulnerable! I dread to think how you treat the aged who don't have any support at all.

  • sar0dev
    Sarah Devlin (@sar0dev) reported

    @LouiseM30692137 @O2 Same in Dunfermline, Fife. Flipping awful signal.

    @O2 Very disgusted with O2 my issue still not resolved looks like I'll have to find a better provider

    @MANUELA12614661 @arokorol @O2 As if you’d get a refund for accessing their network.

  • IanLewis299
    Ian Lewis (@IanLewis299) reported

    @O2 please check DMs as I have sent a new message. Despite assuring me my billing issue was sorted I've now had a message threatening my service including my travel bolt on that I am using while on holiday. This needs sorting asap.

  • Sean_Bahamut
    Sean W (@Sean_Bahamut) reported

    @O2 You've clarified, but not helped. This reply is not helpful at all. Your support staff also had no idea about this situation, or how to handle it. All they could do as a solution was terminate game pass subscription before my minimum 6 month period had finished. Not good enough

  • BritsB4Boats

    Has anyone had any experience of making an ombudsman complaint against @O2 (or other network)? They’ve not billed me correctly for almost half a year now, adding charges for a phone I sent back in January (with their prepaid packaging, and I gave them Royal Mail’s tracking number for it). They’ve also abruptly ended a payment plan I was on, allegedly because it “automatically terminated” when my account was credited for the charges for my previous phone, which should not have been added. I’ve tried asking them for help today, but they have been ******* useless
