  • howierice Howard Rice (@howierice) reported from Sale, England

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

  • 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.

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

    Hello @O2 your network coverage across the UK is awful: there’s about one street in Manchester where I get a useable 4G signal and nowhere else. Definitely isn’t my devise as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

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

    @O2 Also sorry - but what’s the point in telling me to use a network checker if you don’t accept the results of the checker? That’s literally your app I’m using and it’s giving me terrible results.

    @O2 @CatherineLB92 Hi, still terrible phone signal here in SK11. I'm working from home so WiFi is fine but phone calls are not 😩

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

    @O2 Well I said I am having problems with my 4g, you told me to follow the guide which told me to use the network checker, I showed you the results of the network checker and you said 4G isn’t about speeds. So what’s the point in telling me to use the network checker?

  • 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

  • SteveVanDang Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported from Stockport, England

    Welp @O2 support was great tellin me no better deals,tho new customers get massively better deals & the signal in my area should be good 🤷. #Pac requested, got a @VOXI_UK Sim for half the price, better signal, more perks. 16 years brand loyalty with o2, was worth squat to o2.cya

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

    @O2 which idiot authorises sending out texts at 4 o’clock in the morning to update me about my phone order? Get real.The person needs punching or sacking or both!

  • liammcdon97 Liam McDonald (@liammcdon97) reported from Stockport, England

    £40 a month for @O2 and can't even get any signal majority of the time. Absolute jokers.

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported from Stockport, England

    @AndyOxon @O2 @virginmedia I've been waiting five months. Complaint gone external now!

  • violetibeh Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

  • sampixeldot Sam 🤸🏻‍♀️ (@sampixeldot) reported from Macclesfield, England

    @O2 Yep I have. It says you've been working on masts in the last 24hrs but there should be no current issues. After you've been working on masts, how long do you expect til signal is normal again?

  • OliverBanks Oliver Banks 🇺🇦 (@OliverBanks) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 hi, how do I cancel a contract within the 14 day cooling off period please?

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 @purpledolphins7 They didn't help me. They didn't apply the increase in speed. In fact they said I could have 1gig for £30 extraper month. False advertising and liars!

  • HirenParekh22 Hiren Parekh (@HirenParekh22) reported

    Very very disappointing service from @O2. Advised to issue PAC after cancellation of contract and still waiting for it since last two weeks. It was my permanent number and now affecting my personal life as people cannot contact me. Worst experience of my life!

  • mimi_mc___ Mimi (@mimi_mc___) reported

    @O2 This is the second time I’ve won a prize but the Prsnt app never works! Please help! I have a ticketmaster voucher won that I cannot redeem - same issue as last time - it just has a circle whirring round

  • nicobacker Nicolas Backer (@nicobacker) reported

    @O2 @o2businessuk you have terrible signal reception everywhere in London and in England. I can’t have reception in the city, in greenwich, in heathrow, anywhere around the city reception is terrible. Shame on you, you dont invest. Worse signal in UK.

  • Jeeves_UK James (@Jeeves_UK) reported

    @O2 going to cancel 3 contracts with yourselves. Random £92 in charges on my account. 30 mins on hold to a manager and still not resolved. Avoid this network and get out whilst you still can.

  • BobKanDo Bob🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@BobKanDo) reported

    @O2 I woke to no service. Tried everything to fix but finally took it to the phone repair shop. The man switched sims and the phone works fine. Then I go into an O2 shop only to be told my number has been blocked BY O2 in relation to fraud No text, no email, no nothing. What now?
