Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Macclesfield and nearby locations:

  • 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.

  • 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??

  • ISCDXN Isaac (@ISCDXN) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 hello! I entered for 6 months free of Disney+ in July but never actually completed the registration on my account so will that have been activated or not? Could you check please

  • Rebeckikia Rebecca Chesworth (@Rebeckikia) reported from Manchester, England

    @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?

  • atlr Alexander Robinson (@atlr) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi. Yes, she is unable to relay the code to me. I was also told that, in order to cancel the account entirely, I’d also have to relay a code. I registered a security word when I set the account up. I’ve provided this. But I am still unable to admin/run my account. This is crazy.

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

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

  • OddyJames James Oddy (@OddyJames) reported from Congleton, England

    @O2 another awful experience with O2 tonight. On hold for 25mina just to be told that the insurance team have finished? Could you have told me that instead of the press 2 option?? Thanks for nothing. Business going elsewhere soon....

  • penny62132920 Lorraine Glover (@penny62132920) reported from Strines, England

  • ruthjustdoit Ruth Thompson (@ruthjustdoit) reported from Macclesfield, England

    @O2 I've been a customer since the late 1990s, before you were T-Mobile. Please don't advertise on GBNews or I shall take my custom elsewhere. 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. 😡

  • 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

  • malllmallll Mario Alghatta (@malllmallll) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 terrible service from you guys today. Thanks for the inconvenience...

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • AbiClarey Abi (@AbiClarey) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 I seem to never have any internet access anywhere, even when showing 4G nothing loads and no WhatsApp’s come through

  • TourdeMancBloke Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 how do you get through to you for a pac code. Been ringing for an eternity and still waiting. It's as if you're ignoring the call so i'll have stay. pretty cr*p service from a main mobile provider. Let me guess #hgvshortageexcuse or #covidexcuse #notfitforourpose @Offcom

  • Julio_Afonso522 Julio Afonso 🇲🇿 🇵🇹 🇪🇺🇨🇭 (@Julio_Afonso522) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Why are you refusing a contract to a new customer just because they don't have a credit score? Person working full time with a good pay, bank account. Why refusing a contract?

  • PerryClaire27 Claire 🖤 (@PerryClaire27) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 sort your **** signal out, £70 a month for this bullshit

  • robjamesbird Robert James Bird (@robjamesbird) reported

    @O2 Recycle is such a scam. They valued my phone at £200.. and now its valued at £40 because of "screen damage' which is utter rubbish. I can confirm it was delivered in a good condition and I have photos. Complaints are ignored. I read the forums and I am not the only one. Avoid
