  • _Mikki1993 Mikki (@_Mikki1993) reported from Bury, England

    @O2 I phoned and the woman I spoke with said the amount showing in 'usage cost' was my overall bill as opposed to being in addition to what was showed under 'handset cost' which I've never know to be the case before. Is this correct?

  • BeverlyMacker Beverly Macker (@BeverlyMacker) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 why does this ALWAYS happen?! On hold for 30 mins only to be cut off when you tried to put me through to customer services!! Do you realise how infuriating that is why haven’t you called me back?!

  • marikapaprik marico (@marikapaprik) reported from Walkden, England

    Please tell me @O2 why I have so many issues calling you up? You cut off my phone and every time I try to call up to get it reconnected it’s a damn hassle?

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 when will the 4G signal be back to normal working order? Is COVID still a factor in this? I'm sure the signal strength was cut short due to more people working at home etc.

  • DodgyValley Balcombe (@DodgyValley) reported from Walkden, England

    @O2 is there an issue with O2 data network centre of Sheffield at the moment, not been working last few hours

  • goughy84 Mark Lister (@goughy84) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 hi. I have Disney+ free till end month, when it then becomes £5.99. I saw on o2 offers I can add it for £3.99. Do I need to cancel and re add for the discount or will the £2 off auto apply when it becomes chargeable? Thanks

  • Link2076 LinkoVitch (@Link2076) reported from Mossley, England

    @develogue @O2 Offering me Footie is an almost guaranteed way to make me not use your service :) and I still don’t need that much data :)

    @O2 3 days trying to pay off my device plan and no one wants to help ! Keep being told I’m being put through to the call centre only to be put through to some working from home who can’t help #Disgraceful #cannotwaittoleaveo2

  • DWATKINSON Daniel Watkinson (@DWATKINSON) reported from Urmston, England

    So @O2 take the bar off my phone at 1700 hours and nearly 6 hours later the bar is still there even tho they told me it would be removed after 10 minutes, not like I need to use my phone or anything. I’ve only been a customer for 12 years and only spent about £5000 on them

  • kellyvmckeown Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 given that there is a reduced presence on the phones why can I not pay a lump sum off my device plan online I’ve tried the messaging service and no response for over an hour it shouldn’t be this difficult can someone please help

  • sophiemaycath soph 🌞 (@sophiemaycath) reported from Manchester, England

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Mottram in Longdendale, England

    @O2 hi, how can a serious look at serious lack of 4G signal strength be looked into? I've been advised to use the O2 signal checker which I have done and it always says that my area is at FULL signal strength. This just isn't the case. 4G since covid is atrocious :0(

  • kellyvmckeown Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 It keeps cutting me off because I’m not calling to upgrade cancel or report fraud it’s frustrating to be told to call and then I’m cut off

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 is the 4G signal across the country still being limited due to covid?

  • Mr_Ricker79 Ricky Gwilliam (@Mr_Ricker79) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Are you able to confirm, without directing me to your website (which doesn’t answer my question and does not help) when 5G will be available in Manchester? Thank you

  • Mr_Ricker79 Ricky Gwilliam (@Mr_Ricker79) reported from Manchester, England

    @lmjwoww @O2 Exactly... their response didn’t help at all as I had already been on their website. I would say they don’t currently have 5G in Manchester. Contradicting the info on the website. 😡

  • claireshaw2188 Claire Louise (@claireshaw2188) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @O2 please can you advise me who to contact to share amazing customer service from one of your team in your Wilmslow store please?
