    @O2 appalling service! Ordered a product 20/11 for next day delivery, payment taken then to receive an email saying out of stock. 4 weeks later still no item now being told could be 6+ weeks. Customer services not helping me at all & saying there is nothing they can do!

  • ChrisLonelyguy Christopher Hallick (@ChrisLonelyguy) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Come on @O2 I'm getting plagued daily by false automated calls from different numbers #scams #fraud now I'm x directory and blocked lists etc so shouldn't receive such things. I know there's auto dialled but operators should be cracking down on this!

  • Watto_Clare Clare Watson-Spence (@Watto_Clare) reported from Coalville, England

    Can anyone help with 20 data dongles for a school I’ve worked closely with. The free WiFi/data would allow these families to access on line learning for lock down. Would be a loan until they return to school! Please try and help! Thank you xx @virginmedia @tescomobile @O2

    Hey @O2 , question!! My iPhone 12 Pro max has issues when turning on or off, it glitches and taken ages to do either .. is this a fault in the software or a phone issue ? #apple #iPhone

    @O2 Sort my Account as I can't login.

  • SmileyJMH Joanna Hayes (@SmileyJMH) reported from Loughborough, England

    Tried to do something good by not buying a new phone via @O2 Customer Service team on Wed am when the sale started, waiting to buy it today from the part-time lady in store who has helped me decide which to get. But O2 have now sold out 😔 Grrr at trying to do a good thing 😔

  • glennworth Glenn (@glennworth) reported from Narborough, England

    @VodafoneUK @EE @O2 @ThreeUK The problem here is that most of the thick pricks doing this can't read. Or don't trust mobile phones so won't be on twitter....

  • JLewisRUK Jamie Lewis Rennie (@JLewisRUK) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @JamesWBovey @Apple @O2 I’m sorry but calling O2 ‘dossers’ and ‘freaks’ will not help the situation. If you treat O2 properly, you might get somewhere in life. Disgusting behaviour.

  • capsule_toy Capsule Toy (@capsule_toy) reported from Oadby and Wigston, England

    Why is it impossible to actually talk to a human when on the @O2 app or website? It's just endless "help" articles or that very limiter Aura robot. You took £30 off me for nothing, and I want it back.

  • CAMRGB CAMRGB (@CAMRGB) reported from Wistow, England

    @O2 And now it is back to Mike’s name. Please fix. It’s driving me mad.

  • garydolman Gary Dolman (@garydolman) reported from Blaby, England

    @O2 Congratulations to O2 the first UK mobile provider to commit to ethical advertising by joining the Conscious Advertising Network.If enough brands follow their lead in implementing the CAN principles, this could be the key to making hate & misinformation unprofitable for good

  • JLewisRUK Jamie Lewis Rennie #StayHomeSaveLives (@JLewisRUK) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @O2 Hi O2, I've tried the option and it's the same email I'm currently using. By when I go into the Account and click on 'My Details' I can't as its sending a code to my previous number. Please help me x

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • kath782 Kath (@kath782) reported

    @O2 Sorted now. Both existing customers but it took over an hour on the phone with terrible sound quality. Really difficult.

  • bev_metallica Bev (@bev_metallica) reported

    @O2 Are you having coverage problems? For over a fortnight now, our phones aren't picking up calls when at home - I have to leave the house for signal. Annoying as I today missed another call from the hospital about treatment. Took me 6 tries to get the voicemail. "no mobile network"

  • martins99859190 martin stead (@martins99859190) reported

    @O2 right o2 this is the second time this week that your internet is not working what is happening

  • MikeyCycling CyclingMikey tired of road crime. 🇪🇺🇳🇱🇿🇼 (@MikeyCycling) reported

    @AusterfieldM @WilliamNB @O2 Just find whichever network has best signal and data rates at your locations, and then go with that network. Never expect service from any of them, they are all crap. There are maps of mobile coverage, but I suggest testing with friends' phones or just buy some PnG SIMs.

  • WilliamNB 🚲 Will is too honest to ever be an MP 🇬🇧🇿🇦 (@WilliamNB) reported

    @lastnotlost @giffgaff Giff Gaff runs on @O2, so the underlying issue is O2's crap service. I'll need to jump to either EE or Vodafone. I don't like either, but am forced to do this

  • erawnomiS Simon (@erawnomiS) reported

    @o2 Why is there no mobile phone signal at York train station? How are passengers supposed to download digital train tickets when there is zero bar of signal?

  • Nepomucene Olivier (@Nepomucene) reported

    @WilliamNB @AusterfieldM @O2 Never forget that as a MVNO, GiffGaff did not have priority access to their signal. For quality (but not price) you’re always better off with the real operator. And if you depend on it to work, mobile (& broadband) is not the best place to save money :-(

  • phillipsc Fr Chris Phillips SSC (@phillipsc) reported from Brentford, England

    Hello @virginmedia @O2 I’m a customer of you both and am wondering when I’ll be upgraded to the new Volt benefits? I can’t see a way to opt in online.

  • jordankenny6 Jordan Kenny (@jordankenny6) reported

    @O2 making their 4G **** in the last 6 months. Funny my connection wasn’t this **** before you rolled out 5G

  • AKing_1 Ant King 🇮🇹 (@AKing_1) reported

    Trying to sort myself a new contract with @O2 and the service is terrible, can’t get hold of anyone and phone line hangs up on me after I answer a few questions..
