    @O2 Your service is rubbish. Tried calling but can't get through u less I'm reporting a fraud or lost or stolen phone. Someone please answer!!! I'm getting sick of your rubbish service!!!

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    Having to restrict my mobile to @o2 3G service because the 4G is absolutely shocking. And #o2 keep telling me there is nothing wrong with the service!!! Can't be me who is the liar as I'm getting nothing through my mobile!!!

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    I have had to lower my @O2 mobile network mode to #3G because the reception around here for anything higher is next to nothing. Have complained about this in the past and go not further communication, quite fitting really to have no communication when it comes to signal.

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @O2 why am I receiving a text message today telling me you were unable to process my payment? When it was taken yesterday from my bank account!!! It seems to be one thing after another with your service lately!

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @O2 This has no effect on my issue.

  • SamAspinall95 Sam (@SamAspinall95) reported from Leyland, England

    @O2 would you be able to Message me in regards to my bill, can’t seem to ring customer service just disconnects

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @atkin_julie @O2 I have had the same issues.

  • Treaders1984 Michael Treadwell (@Treaders1984) reported from Penwortham, England

    @O2 why is the mobile data signal so poor in Preston and the surrounding areas?!? Got a text to say you were improving the sigbal in our area and ever since its veen worse! #no4gor3g #20GBwasted

  • davepakey71 Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported from Burscough, England

    @o2 the worst company for customer service

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    After complaining for over 9 month about reception and signal strength in my area, @O2 advice me to change the sim, now brand new sim card and still the reception and signal is horrendous. So @o2 what is your recommendation now???

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from South Shore, England

    @O2 now I know you are lying when you tell me there is nothing wrong with your signal or reception. Stood literally by the side of a mast located from your 'mynetwork' app and its giving me next to nothing. 9 month complaining to you, now I know it's an issue on you

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @O2 Can I not ring? I have messaged on here loads of times in the past and nothing gets done! Plus my partner is having the same issues as me and we are getting sick of paying for a service we are not receiving

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity MIH MBII (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @O2 Your always sorry but nothing actually ever gets done about it. Just fob me off saying "well at time of point of sale, you will have signed to understand". I have already persuaded my whole family to go to a different network one of your competitors, and I will tell more people.

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @O2 No you can't help because you haven't been able to help for the past 6 month whilst I have had this problem

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @O2 please help with sim swap, I have already DM you to help

  • mcainey88 McAiney Ⓜ️ (@mcainey88) reported from Preston, England

    @O2 no signal or Internet here in preston. Is service down?

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @O2 Done, but I'm not expecting you to tell me there is a problem when this has been like this since I moved to the area 9 month ago

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity MIH MBII (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    The @O2 network in this area is so bad. I am constantly telling people not to take out a contract with @o2 and the company doesn't listen to their customers when they tell the company there is problems with signal and coverage issues.

  • CraigVerity1 Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @O2 can i ask what 4G speed your network should be giving out to the 99% of the UK you advertise.

  • davepakey71 Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported from Preston, England

    @O2 I’d be winner if I could have 4g & a full signal

  • allyc375 Alison Cameron 🤍❤️🤍💙💛 (@allyc375) reported

    @debs_with_cats @O2 I calmed down a bit then as I realised I actually can probably do that. I am such an idiot.

  • sarahivell Sarah Ivell (@sarahivell) reported

    @O2 Hi, How do I cancel an airtime tariff please? My airtime and device plan should be unlinked now and I don’t use the airtime at all as it’s for my iPad

  • Sam_Halfpenny Sam Halfpenny (@Sam_Halfpenny) reported

    @O2 I believe it’s everyone in the local area as I’ve asked a few people. EE seems to be unaffected, again. The service has been appalling around here for O2 for ages. Barely get 3G most of the time. Where do I stand to leave and move on?

  • Rodger80617217 ChickenSwawarma 🇬🇧 (@Rodger80617217) reported

    @O2 02 are terrible. I'll never ever use them again🚫

  • originalblez Sean B (@originalblez) reported

    @O2 has the WORST voice AI system. It asked me for my password but couldn’t understand my Northern Irish accent. All I wanted to do was speak to a human being about my problem.

  • MonsterGrimoire gooop #LOONAinLondon (@MonsterGrimoire) reported

    @O2 hey I need help since I enabled an offer too early and now the code is expired

  • SarahNewborough sarah (@SarahNewborough) reported

  • AbbieWiddowson1 Abbie Widdowson (@AbbieWiddowson1) reported

    @O2 customer service needs to improve. I’ve been told 2 days in a row I will receive a phone call in 24 hours and now being advised I now have to wait 48 hours for another call back which I probably also won’t receive. Please do better
