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

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

  • 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

    @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?

  • elgobsucram Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported from Manchester, England

    Always good finding 3 unknown direct debits to @O2 2 months *after* reporting fraud, especially after they refused to refund the charges to gambling websites I’d never even heard of

  • 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 aboard 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.

  • chrisrogan Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, England

    Pee'd off at @GreggsOfficial and @O2 three weeks in a row with priority debacle. One week over charged, last week paid for my own this week walked out. Staff not trained in the offer and Greggs not responding to customer service emails. More Greggs issue than o2.

  • bodsy0 Mike Bowden (@bodsy0) reported from Stockport, England

    @o2 you really need to change your 'on-hold' music #terrible 😎

  • J0eH0lmes Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Stockport, England

    @joe_fush @O2 I've been trying to log into my @O2 account and you keep sending me text messages with codes on to log me in, but with absolutely zero signal I can not receive the codes to access my account 🥴

  • 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!

  • ZackHallam Zack Hallam 🐝 (@ZackHallam) reported from Manchester, England

    Why does @O2 refuse to give you internet connection whenever there’s more than 4 people near you… Surely there’s enough infrastructure in Manchester to support 4G?! Every single time I’m in a city centre, my data just doesn’t work. It’s a joke

  • DaveWrigh Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

  • Dr_Bass Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi, my 4G signal over the last few months has been dreadful. I’m currently sitting with 3 bars of 4G and waiting about 10-20 seconds for a picture to download. I thought it was just me but seen plenty others complaining.

  • grantmathieson Grant Griffiths-Mathieson (@grantmathieson) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @O2 Has she maybe assumed data protection issue

  • clare_jeffs Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, England

    They told her they are affiliated with @O2 and apparently do not offer cooling off periods. How can they miss-sell to a vulnerable lady with a brain injury and not cancel it. @plandotcom DISGUSTING.

  • AWorkOfStuART STUasaurus Rex 🦖 © (@AWorkOfStuART) reported from Kidsgrove, England

    @JamesGLA90 @O2 Yup. F*cking awful

  • 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

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

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

  • Jondgooner Jondgooner@lhrfeeder (@Jondgooner) reported

    @O2 If call centres weren't sourced out of the country they may have paid off the correct accounts and it wouldn't have happened things get lost in translation poor service on the cheap does not benefit the customer 😕

  • absbobbins Alison Barton-Simmons (@absbobbins) reported

    @O2 I’ve tried to login on your app and can’t. I have had to reinstall it after not being able to log in for a few days. What can I do?

  • JudgeDewie Alex (@JudgeDewie) reported

    Hey @O2 I have absolutely no signal at all where I live so cannot get text messages or make or receive phone calls. You tell me a mast has been taken down and your “engineers are working tirelessly” to fix it. It’s been over 3 weeks of ZERO service. That’s not good is it?

  • slater04 Catherine Slater (@slater04) reported

    @O2 is online chat running anymore or are you just deliberately frustrating customer by hiding the facility well on the website? Ps also used the what’s app style service and been waiting for a response for 2 hours!

  • K9LoisAedy Lois Hiscock (@K9LoisAedy) reported

    @O2 Helpful as expected...not! They are also no longer a customer of O2, and didn’t use the myo2, legally you cannot not unlock a phone, don’t really understand why it’s so difficult, guess their kind gesture will cost us to pay to get it unlocked by a third party. #O2charlatans

  • RyannPal Ryan (@RyannPal) reported

    @O2 why is signal so bad? I’m in the middle of a town centre and I struggle to get full signal with 3/4G

  • Denis1ad Dennis (@Denis1ad) reported

    @o2 your password reset page is so frustrating 😡 the time between receiving the fraud txt & code txt is too short 😡 count down timer ran out each time now I'm locked out , no wonder i don't use it much can't wait until my contract finishes 👋👋👋o2

  • K9LoisAedy Lois Hiscock (@K9LoisAedy) reported

    @O2 Perhaps you can explain exactly why I needs to be the previous owner, it’s not lost or stolen it’s been given as a start up for a 9 year old, if it was L/S the imei would tell you so. It’s worth £30, just what is your problem?

  • soldiersaf saf (@soldiersaf) reported

    @O2 you have the worse customer service then any other network going

  • MrMadrigalOBE Duncan Craig OBE (@MrMadrigalOBE) reported

    Is anyone else having problems with their @O2 phone connecting to @EE numbers? Calls just wont connect or its silent... tried it on 3 different ee numbers!?!
