    @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.

    @Shannon_Magee_x @O2 I've never had a problem at all. I get signal everywhere and better then people on EE etc. Honestly, can't sing their praises enough

    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

    Josh (@JoshR319) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @joel_hames @O2 It doesn’t affect me personally as I rarely make or receive calls. It’s only the data side that I’m bothered about, but that seems to be working. Sounds like it’s a problem at their end.

    @O2 Yes. And that link doesn't fix the issue. It says login for upgrade options, but when I do and hit upgrade, there are no SIM only options.

    @O2 Hi, I want to upgrade my phone but it will not let me go below 150gb monthly data. I don’t need this much. If I was purchasing the phone new rather than upgrade it let’s me decrease the monthly data on edit my plan but not when upgrading. Please can someone help?

    @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!

  • NickFitz
    Nick Fitzsimons (@NickFitz) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Got on to @O2 support because I can’t send texts. Eventually I was escalated to someone who ignored everything I said and didn’t help; just told me to go to a shop, to get rid of me. Now they want me to give them feedback by text… which I can’t send, because they didn’t help.

    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

    Alice Mowse 💙 🌱❤️ (@AliceMowse) reported

    @O2 why aren't you offering compensation for customers going up to 8 days without being able to stream anything properly on mobile Internet and everything really slow. Thank you for £25 off my £25 bill but this is getting ridiculous now. Ì've until recently paid £60pm for years

  • Sparkyisared
    Sparky (@Sparkyisared) reported

    @SteveJoyce14 @O2 @TheGillsFC I live not far from the ground and the signal has been very bad over the last two days for some reason. So could be an area issue. The problem people keep moaning about the masts and stop them being installed so will never improve.

    Adam Berry (@DiscoEnergy) reported

    @mitchhirsty @JaadeSketch @O2 It’s just not the bill issue I’ve been trying to upgrade over the past month and still issues. O2 sort your website out please!

    @O2 @SteveJoyce14 I can never get coverage inside the ground so it’s an o2 issue not a phone issue

  • NileshGThanki
    Nilesh Thanki (@NileshGThanki) reported

    Looking for resolution from @O2 been having ongoing signal and network problems since joining in December 2025. Live in EN1, Enfield. Complaint after complaint and still no resolution. Why pay for a service if we are not receiving it. Can’t make basic calls in our own home!

  • Tyke1912
    Tykesrus (@Tyke1912) reported

    @O2 It’s not a great look when your customer service representative questions my honesty. I’m very pleased that I no longer have to deal with them.

  • megatronman
    Mark Blackmore (@megatronman) reported

    @O2 I've been waiting for a replacement refurbished iPhone 16e since 10 July. Your agent says a complaint was raised 25 July, but I was never notified. If the exact model is unavailable, why not offer an alternative?

    Why has my 5g signal become really bad now my contract is almost up? Now I can’t order food in work because of your **** service an I’m starving. Scamming robbing ***** @O2

    @O2 Should have said, messaging (not data). A data only add in wasn’t available. I still don’t know where this link in. Your customer representative on the chat couldn’t tell me but they were able to add it for me.
