  • 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. 😡

  • Mr_NickBowe NB (@Mr_NickBowe) reported from Wilmslow, England

    Turns out I've been blocked from O2 and my phone blocked off the network because I work shifts and couldnt answer my phone. Now I cant even ring their 24 hour helpline to sort it out. @O2

    @O2 @CrashBandicoot I tried to enter today but it won’t let me even though it’s still open today as today is the closing date :( Can you help because I’m still within the time frame of e competition?

  • DaveBisgrove Dave Bisgrove (@DaveBisgrove) reported from Manchester, England

    1st prize for worst customer service goes to Vodafone. Lied too 3 times, spent a 70mins on chat then to be told to call 191 only to sit on hold for 40mins... I’m done with their ****. any other mobile providers want my business? @VodafoneUK @EE @O2

  • RJNewman96 RJ (@RJNewman96) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 your service line is actual cancer, never felt so frustrated from such a little thing in my life. Why can’t i get through to an operator?

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

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

  • cakepls racHELLO! 🌹 (@cakepls) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hey I'm due 2 important phone calls but my signal is really bad, in fact I missed a different call due to it being emergency only

  • SeanBwfc1992 Sean Williams (@SeanBwfc1992) reported from Bredbury, England

  • MDOG_Manchester Manchester Dining Offers (@MDOG_Manchester) reported from Manchester, England

    @oneladyshow @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK Honestly, couldn’t even send this tweet in city centre if I was on O2 Something about a mast being down. For three years. Simple reason is, they don’t have enough coverage here so they lie about it.

  • tybsz Colin Tyborczyk (@tybsz) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 I've been experiencing really low download speeds recently, is there a problem with the network?

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

    @O2 Hey there.. it’s been 2 days now and my number port to you guys still hasn’t completed. Number changed in my account but have no signal. Yes, I have turned phone on and off. Thanks

  • DidymusBrush Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported from Manchester, England

    Got tickets for Skunk Anansie via @O2 Priority but they are etickets with no physical counterpart. Presale elsewhere has physical tickets for same price, and I can't help but wish I'd known about that one instead. I have almost all my ticket stubs for the last 2 decades!

  • poppymarello Poppy Marello (@poppymarello) reported from Manchester, England

    The only network where it's impossible to get signal in Manchester City Centre @O2

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

    @O2 I've sent 3 DMs and 1 other tweet regards a reply. Can somebody please help with my yes or no question I sent??

  • 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?

  • s7e7en SThomas (@s7e7en) reported from Manchester, England

    I have been with @Vodafoneuk for nearly 20years and they do say “if it’s not broken..” but my favourite saying is “better late than never” hello @O2 (re refund service) when my phone contract is up!

  • 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.

O2 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • steadyteddy62 stedder (@steadyteddy62) reported

    @O2 It was a refurbished Doro phone. Customer Services offered the opportunity to buy a different one, but I needed that one to replace one that was broken. To be honest I would expect stock levels to be reasonably up to date -it is still showing in stock and available today...

  • karatesuzanne Suzanne Harris (@karatesuzanne) reported

    @O2 please help! I moved home to Canada in May, notification given in June for my mobile & last payment made to O2 in July - but you've taken a further payment in August! I cannot contact customer support by phone. Please advice how I get refunded! Thank you!

  • MrJamesMahon James Mahon (@MrJamesMahon) reported

    @O2 Great. A mast is down locally. That’s a big help.

  • michaelcowgill michael cowgill💙💛 (@michaelcowgill) reported

    @O2 looking for some help with an o2 handset, can somebody contact me to assist please.

  • sam_samaz Samina Azam (@sam_samaz) reported

    @O2 getting low signal and no data. Trying to contact o2. Unable to ????? Why do I keep getting rubbish service???

  • gdouglass Greg Douglass (@gdouglass) reported

    @O2 Yes that’s correct, still not working either.

  • c00ke5ter Ian (@c00ke5ter) reported

    @virginmedia Over two months of outages now for Virgin Fibre, the speeds are great but the reliability & customer service are shocking. Multiple properties on VM in area offline, promised callbacks and engineers never appear. Truly shocking service. Thankful for my @O2 hotspot.

  • Samantha_J83 Samantha (@Samantha_J83) reported

    @O2 Not managed a call at all. It never connects, just makes 3 beeps and cuts, goes back to Home Screen

  • Photo_Iain Iain J 🇪🇺💙 #StillEuropean (@Photo_Iain) reported

    @O2 customer services are dire. Holding the line for 35 minutes to speak to someone. Second I get through to billing and mention the nature of the enquiry, call is disconnected - and of course never get a call back. No wonder they're rated so poorly on @UswitchUK

  • LaraNi87 Laura 🦋 (@LaraNi87) reported

    @O2 hello! I have an Apple Watch from you and cannot get my data to connect since I got a replacement phone from you. It says you contact o2 and quote code 14? Please help. Thanks
