Gerbil (@f4ckiam) reportedI feel like I'm on a complaining streak but here goes: This one is for @O2 I have been a loyal customer since the switch-over of Virgin Media customers. I barely use data. So, I've been more than happy with my £9.73/month tariff. The data is unimportant. Unlimited calls/texts is

krimestyles🏴🏴 (@krimestyles) reported@O2 comms ombudsman you provide after deadlock complaint doesn’t deal with you. £491 you’ve taken out my account for a FREE sim I didn’t even receive . Called loads of times to be met with ignorance and no resolution. Get me my money back

Richard Giles (@Gilly2028) reported@O2 I’ve recently moved from Sky Mobile to O2, I can’t believe O2 actually charge you for sending MMS messages in 2026, 87p a message. Bear in mind Sky piggy back off of O2, I’ve never been charged for MMS.😳 😮 Have I made a big mistake moving to O2?

Paddy.og 🍌 (@PaddyWarburton) reported@O2 We’ve had an absolute shocker with your chat service. A catalogue of mistakes, incompetence and frustration. In shop team and phone line doing their best to unpick it, but still not done.
