  • paulberry2303 Paul Berry (@paulberry2303) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @O2 I have today received another letter telling me the phone is blocked. I don’t have an O2 phone. I have never had an O2 phone. I don’t owe any money. I know you are looking at it but surely you can put a block on correspondence while you do?

  • johnemangan1 John mangan (@johnemangan1) reported from Atherstone, England

    @O2 Ok, I cannot check service when I’m driving, A5 and M42 are main roads, similar places every time, surely you know where your own network is poor and what are you doing to address it?

  • hijabiexplorer Mimii Hatun |Y| aka Ms Begum (@hijabiexplorer) reported from Birmingham, England

    Typical of @o2 for not cancelling my line when I a called in during the cooling off period to cancel the contract. #Thieves

  • MikeJ0nes8 Michael Jones (@MikeJ0nes8) reported

    @O2 Appreciate that, however i first messaged Wednesday at 08:33am. 24-48 hours per reply isnt good enough due to the nature of the issue.

  • ZMT21967434 ZMT (@ZMT21967434) reported

    @O2 the worst customer service ever. one *. Took out new sim only contract on 4th March. Provided PAC code to keep my number. After 2 days, number not ported in. Tried online chat as well as customer service number. Passed from one team to the next. Stay well clear

  • tully_wendy Wendy Tully (@tully_wendy) reported

    @brightonsnapper @O2 Yeah done that with Vodafone and they done the same thing......! Complained over poor signal strength but yet there was nothing wrong with signal strength for the first few weeks; then nothing! Refused to pay and they sent the hounds out 'stating i was breaking the contract!

  • SticksAndBr1cks Lottie (@SticksAndBr1cks) reported

    @O2 I’ve also just been informed by a friend that this response it a copy and paste response to what she got as she’s having the exact same issues. But she did it in a private chat. Do better, this is shameful.
