    @laineyclements @O2 They’re appalling I’m going to cancel myself they are the worst mobile company I’ve ever dealt with they ignore you constantly cut you off leave you on hold zero customer service

  • JMcKnighty
    ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported from Manchester, England

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

  • ShanRebec94
    Shannon (@ShanRebec94) reported from Sale, England

    @chlo3matthewman @O2 @viagogo Tickets on there for over a £1000 now, O2 clearly weren’t experiencing issues with ticket demand unless you were an ordinary customer who wanted them at face value. Very very poor

  • GoaterBilly
    Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England

    @O2 disappointing that o2 treat us like **** after 20 years as both a personal and business customer. Seems they’re happy for us to walk away. Clueless customer service. No attempt to help us.

  • 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.

    @O2 really poor customer service today when trying to open a new account #exasperated

  • Shelo_Mrs
    🌸Shelo🌸 (@Shelo_Mrs) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 why is it IMPOSSIBLE to speak yo somebody about your crappy service & non existent network????? £50 per month for NO SERVICE AT ALL for almost 12 months ! That's £600 shocking company!!

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hey - I have checked the guide. It’s not my device as it worked 100% better on a recent trip to France. It’s not the environment as this is something I experience everywhere (in Leicester, in Manchester, on trains, at festivals) - but your signal checker says I have good 4G.

  • LastMinuteLeese

    @O2 It's always the same at work. Terrible service in a lot of places in Oldham.

  • couser85

    @O2 why is the my o2 not working. Haven’t been able to use it for over a week!

  • 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 😕

  • Nic05508801
    Nic & Jack (@Nic05508801) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 Doesn't surprise me, your service is shocking!!!!!

  • kea11y
    Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

    @willyepp @O2 @O2 have become arguably the worst company I've ever had to deal with. They messed up am order for me, then still took the money from my account. Nearly a week ago, amd still haven't been refunded.

  • kbushnell1975
    Kieren Bushnell (@kbushnell1975) reported

    @O2 Do not have a complaint reference as your complaints team have not responded to ANY of my emails!!!!!!

  • jc5415
    John Coombs (@jc5415) reported

    @O2 I have transferred to o2 but my number transfer hasn't been scheduled (I entered all of the details correctly and it's on the system). It's very difficult to get help with this. Can you help?

  • Ohmygodjammie
    Jamie Nichole Watkinson (@Ohmygodjammie) reported

    @O2 Hello, I am wanting to upgrade my phone. The phone is over £1k on contract and currently have a DRO. I never included my phone bill on my DRO because I was and still am up to date with payments. Am I right that because the contract be over £500 I have to declare it to you?

  • Stephen1494712
    Stephen (@Stephen1494712) reported

    @O2 Finally got it sorted. You guys need to fix your payment system, the email verification for login doesn’t work properly and when login finally works it automatically attempts to take payment on whatever wallet shows then fails. Then login has to be attempted again. And fails.

  • AndrewAgent1806
    Andrew Morrison🇬🇧 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@AndrewAgent1806) reported

    @O2 I wonder if you could help me as I have spent about 5 hours today trying to talk to a person at O2 and all I got was bots. I have lived at my current address for over 6 years, today I got a bill for someone I have never heard of, dated from last year.

    @O2 How do I purchase a phone without taking out a new plane with airtime (I'm an existing customer with 6 months left on contract)

  • lilmissymoo90
    Lauren Blair♥ (@lilmissymoo90) reported

    @O2 Getting passed about for 2 hours too just to get an upgrade on an account that’s 7 years or older was crazy. I deal with all of my mother’s accounts and it’s never been an issue even the last phone she got from o2 was straightforward. I was almost changing to vodaphone

    @1stSimona @O2 I swapped to spusu, £7.90 and the signal is WAY better. I was with O2 over 15 years. Wish i’d left sooner
