  • hellencoulson1 Hellen Coulson (@hellencoulson1) reported

    @O2 recently upgraded and was persuaded to take out contract over 36 months when I originally wanted it over 24. Told I could easily make extra payments off my device plan. I've tried to do this via app, but told I need to ring customer service? Surely this isn't the only way?!

  • Ladytelp Nilla (@Ladytelp) reported

    @O2 Everyone I know that's with yourselves haven't had any signal for days.

  • Rwardy11 Ryan (@Rwardy11) reported

    @O2 ordered a Apple Watch series 7 which claimed order before midnight I would receive next day? Why haven’t I received a dispatch notice? I was also told by sales advisor it would be delivered today if i ordered?????? #Help

  • PauulShannon Paul Shannon (he/him) (@PauulShannon) reported

    @O2 Believe me, I've been trying since 6pm! Now I've spoken to 4 people and none could help! I'm more disappointed than mad at this point. 😓 I've had enough now. Decided to simplify things and leave O2 entirely. Just requested my PAC code via text. It was good while it lasted xox

  • BritishSeahawk 🇬🇧 FiveStarGer 🇬🇧 (@BritishSeahawk) reported

    @O2 I have pre ordered the Google Pixel 6 Pro 128GB, I was wondering what the process is to change this device to the 256GB one? Is it easy and straightforward or do we need to cancel order do credit checks again etc?

  • TedHewitt1997 Ted Hewitt 💙 (@TedHewitt1997) reported

    @O2 I am having the same problem as Muhammad

  • PauulShannon Paul Shannon (he/him) (@PauulShannon) reported

    @O2 I see you're pretty active on here. I'm trying to call up to pay my device plan. I've spoken to 3 people & they either can't process it because WFH or don't have the authority to do so and pass me on. 1hr 20mins on 📞. Can you have someone call me who can help? Please DM!

    @O2 Thank you, @O2! "Good news. Our network is working well. We've fixed an issue in this area. We'll continue to keep a close eye on the network to make sure everything's working as it should.” That was quicker than expected. However, it does keep happening!!
