  • chris_rugs Chris Ruggles (@chris_rugs) reported from Great Yeldham, England

    Hi @O2, just a heads up...me and thousands of others will leave your network if you advertise on GB news. Have a long hard think about what you will be funding. #DontFundGBNews

  • ashley_leggett Ashley Leggett (@ashley_leggett) reported from Great Leighs, England

    @O2 The fact it’s in 3 seperate locations, where my current projects are located, suggests it’s on your side. To use the excuse that there is too much traffic is also ridiculous as means you have over sold your network.

  • Uptowndiscos Uptown entertainment discos (@Uptowndiscos) reported from Harlow, England

    @techdotintel @virginmedia @O2 I'm currently a Virgin media customer and business O2 customer. Do I qualify?

  • AbbeygaleRose 𝐀𝐛𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐠𝐚𝐥𝐞 (@AbbeygaleRose) reported from Chelmsford, England

    Beginning to regret renewing my contract with O2, their coverage in Chelmsford is awful. My 4G works about 20% of the time. @O2

  • tomtilly28 Adam Dack (@tomtilly28) reported from Harlow, England

    @O2 what are u doing my phone has just died logged in and all my service been disconnected why !!! Idiots

  • hadhamlane Andy Lane (@hadhamlane) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @O2 ...and then when you’re signed up they change your deal to make you worse off. #O2 reducing the friends & family discount for a loyal customer is the last straw for me.. #O2

  • JulianLittle4Ag Julian Little (@JulianLittle4Ag) reported from Little Dunmow, England

    Apologies to anyone who has tried to call me at the back end of this week. Badly let down by the useless service @O2 who are now saying that it will take ANOTHER 3 working days to move my number 🤬.

  • j4cobwood Jacob Wood (@j4cobwood) reported from Harlow, England

    @O2 I need support with my network, I’ve tried everything that the website says, my calls won’t connect and when they do the sound is cracking and poor. Most of people trying to call me can never get through either. This has been happening for months now

  • SimonHemmingshj Simon Hemmings (@SimonHemmingshj) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 @GarethTurpin I appreciate your personal message. However, I now remember why I left you last time, lower than average service, and now a 17.3% total price increase, which is disproportionate and completely knobbish if you ask me. @BBCNews

  • jill_jtc Jill T food safety (@jill_jtc) reported from Sawbridgeworth, England

    @GlassBeadsLotti @O2 Thanks - trouble is it’s not a fault with the phone; service providers have got to up theirs game to stop this happening!!

  • RyanSchaverien Ryan_Schaverien (@RyanSchaverien) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 Extremely slow data coverage for the past 3 weeks.... any help?

  • Uptowndiscos Uptown entertainment discos (@Uptowndiscos) reported from Harlow, England

    @techdotintel @virginmedia @O2 I'm a virgin HOME customer and an O2 business customer but I don't qualify

  • leon_dave_smith Leon Smith🇬🇧🇪🇺❄️ (@leon_dave_smith) reported from Harlow, England

    @tescomobile @O2 any coverage issues in CM20, been terrible yesterday and today, signal 4G keeps dropping out

  • paulhayward200 Paul (@paulhayward200) reported from Wendens Ambo, England

    @O2 Took out a new IPhone contract back in November. No problems paying but I wanted to add a Apple Watch on the account. O2 keep on cancelling the order even though I pass the credit check.

  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @o2 I ,along with seemingly many others, wish to know why your 4G has been virtually useless over the last week or so please, or better yet, when the service will improve, but you don’t seem to be replying to anyone. Please help.

  • 1011FOXEE beverley fox (@1011FOXEE) reported from Takeley, England

    @O2 I am trying to apply the discount I get for working at Tesco,it won’t let me use my email as used for my daughters account,help!!

  • jill_jtc Jill T food safety (@jill_jtc) reported from Sawbridgeworth, England

    @O2 Sounds easy doesn’t it!! Every call is from a different number, it wears me down, in excess of 20 yesterday all blocked & inadvertently called a couple back in error trying to block late at night with brain fog. So cross!!

  • EmRosePull Emmss (@EmRosePull) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 GREAT NETWORK IS DOWN AGAIN!!

  • Uptowndiscos Uptown entertainment discos (@Uptowndiscos) reported from Harlow, England

    @O2 the answer to that question is primarily no. I would have to leave Virgin as a HOME customer and then sign up as a business customer? What about my TV package?

  • KJDalby Kate Dalby (@KJDalby) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 urgent my new provider activated the PAC code provided by you. Their sim card does not work because apparently my device is locked with you. I cannot text you to get it unlocked. Please help asap.

  • HoulihanFinn Finn Houlihan (@HoulihanFinn) reported

    @davejackson1954 @O2 Im having the same problem, seems to be an known issue, not sure why we weren’t warned of it before signing up? We shouldn’t have been let to walk blindly into this mess !!

  • JefferyBeaker Steph Merry (@JefferyBeaker) reported

    @EdgeGavin @virginmedia I feel like I’m going mad. I have to explain the problem over and over again because they’re so awful at their job. Still take the full payment each month for our non working broadband. I’m also doing the same with @O2 and funnily enough, same parent company 🙃

  • HoulihanFinn Finn Houlihan (@HoulihanFinn) reported

    @FPLJazz01 @thebunney @O2 I’m having the same problem, absolutely terrible service, the fact it’s a known issue, we should have been warned of it before signing up ?

  • HoulihanFinn Finn Houlihan (@HoulihanFinn) reported

    @coops153 @Joe_Guy @O2 The lack of any communication or updates is shocking, no mention of this issue on their website. I’m none the wiser when this will be resolved ? Hrs, days, weeks, ever ?

  • jjLondon1234 J (@jjLondon1234) reported

    @Aunasito @O2 You have a 14 day cooling off period, so you can return and cancel contract

  • Chad25216451 Chad (@Chad25216451) reported

    @O2 How about you offer customers better signal quality and not pocket our money and offer just 3G or EDGE!!!

  • rhianna_joseph Rhianna Joseph #PrayForDemi ❤️ (@rhianna_joseph) reported

    @O2 I have a quick question O2 disconnect an customer’s contract without their permission? Is this in your terms and conditions?

  • 1964panic Paul Bray (@1964panic) reported from Plymouth, England

    @Grahamfire67 @O2 Thanks Graham, good point well made, will try to remember that, and stick with the old phone that I'm only upgrading because it's a couple years old and the battery doesn't last as long as it used to. First World problems eh?

  • Simon_Telford Simon Telford (@Simon_Telford) reported

    I ported my number to @O2 on 18th October and it’s yet to be completed fully (still don’t receive texts…). FYI @Ofcom having to phone for updates every 2 days and still no real update on the issue or resolution timeframe.

  • GazBenham Gary Benham (@GazBenham) reported

    @O2 Thank you, I’m now aware that your technical issues are the reason that I have no service. Will you compensate users for the outage that has been ongoing for over a week?
