    Have been with @ThreeUK since 2005...15 years and the service has just got worse...time to switch! What you got @EE @virginmedia @O2

  • ChrisSammons_ Chris Sammons (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I appreciate theres obviously a serious issue, I’ve never known signal to be down for so long at one time. There needs to be a conversation at some stage regarding a substantial reimbursement on this months tariff, because to not have any signal whatsoever for this long is a pain

  • ChrisSammons_ Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @danboq @VodafoneUK @O2 have an annual rise in April too, when I have signal, the conversation will be interesting 😂

  • Paul1366 The McFugget (@Paul1366) reported from Tamworth District, England

    @O2 Any known issues with the phone service in Tamworth and Lichfield. I can barely make phone calls and it shows I have 4g but the Internet is awfully slow.

  • Georgekafetzis George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 your customer service has gone extremely S**T

  • ReissOmari Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @o2 signal in birmingham, on 4g but nothing working, been like this was at least a week now, struggling to see why im playing £60 a month to use wi-fi only.

  • ppmbecky ✨Becky Higgins✨ (@ppmbecky) reported from Walsall Wood, England

  • gav_wallace1 Gavin Wallace (@gav_wallace1) reported from Wednesfield, England

    2/2 @O2 I’m currently sat at Wolverhampton station and I have 1 bar or 4G in what is a major UK city. Absolutely nonsense that these problems continue to happen. I thought it was bad enough not getting full 4G in my house in Kilmarnock but this is just amateur hour at its finiest

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    Remember when @ThreeUK public shamed @O2 for being down. Pot Kettle..

    @O2 my son has changed network provider from o2 to ee. Waiting 5 days now for tel no to be transferred. Unable to get thru and no response to messages. Its crucial he has a working phone especially at this time. Shameful customer service.....

  • tofty1972 Gareth Toft (@tofty1972) reported

    @O2 Pay for an iPhone from O2 that you didn't order return it to O2 and still have to pay £741 at £20 a month and O2 not put right and return what money they've taken. All support incapable of correcting it and the fraud team ignoring you for five months.

  • HRoweMktgPR Hannah Rowe (@HRoweMktgPR) reported

    Big thanks to the customer service team at @O2 - really helpful. First lady had problem with her system, I rang back, 2nd lady sorted the issue, then 1st lady rang back when her system was sorted. We're all quick to moan (me included) but they were brilliant.

  • teej18982 Ian Johnson (@teej18982) reported

    @O2 signal problems in Epsom,Surrey? No 5G and barely 4G.

  • stacychap85 Stacy Chappelow (@stacychap85) reported

    @O2 I've received an email from my care regarding a refund request but it says it needs card details. And to contact customer services.. Is this legitimate??

  • Jmrplus4Jane Jane Beesley (@Jmrplus4Jane) reported

    @O2 just upgraded phone when started up-new phone it kicked him out of his old phone and now he can’t use either as he needs to get on old phone to get text to swap the sim we can’t call customer service as his new phone is enabled for calls yet and can’t use old phone:

  • Muskratling Elon Muskrat (@Muskratling) reported

    @Schmoo1408 @EnglandRugby @O2 Oh please! The Gump has a contract to after the RWC and hasn't been sacked despite two atrocious 6Ns and numerous other poor performances.

  • Fletch724 Harry Fletcher (@Fletch724) reported

    Just called @O2 customer services and got put through to another customer who also needed help?!😭 how can that even happen??

  • Zenwork21 Zenwork (@Zenwork21) reported

    @O2 is 1478300016 a legit number from 02 customer care? Didn’t sound like.

  • Markp821 Mark Perry (@Markp821) reported

    @O2 nearly 2 1/2 hours on the phone tonight and a minor issue of adding a watch to my new mobile plan isn't sorted (after going to store) ... Its frustrating for me but must be massively embarrassing for you guys... with Vodafone it was easy, 10 mins on the phone and sorted....

  • Fletch724 Harry Fletcher (@Fletch724) reported

    @O2 I’d rather not make that publicly available - bit concerning when an elderly lady is asking me if I’m customer services, anyone else could have scammed her?!
