  • LebbyE Lebby Eyres (@LebbyE) reported from Islington, England

    Essentially @o2 treat everyone who wants to buy a phone under £200 outright like a potential fraudster. You can’t pay it off in store and they force you into a temp contract. Then make you wait hours on the phone and go via their fraud dept. Why? I’d love to know.

  • Brunts1980 Nickle Arse (@Brunts1980) reported from Camberwell, England

    Thought @ThreeUK were bad but @o2 may have to be even worse...

  • stephenhdg steve the taxi (@stephenhdg) reported from Ilford, England

  • LebbyE Lebby Eyres (@LebbyE) reported from Islington, England

    You can tell how a company values its customers by their customer service. 2.5 hrs for @O2 to tell me for some reason I need to call the fraud dept to pay off and upgrade my son’s phone. Cut off four times yet they answer to “business customers” immediately

  • markh4780 Mark Harris (@markh4780) reported from Kensington, England

    @O2 looks like it’s gone down in London!!!! Any update on this would be helpful 🤷🏽

  • allyc375 Alison Cameron🐟 (@allyc375) reported from Kensington, England

    @O2 I have serious health issues hence a working phone is essential. Hope I get well enough to go in to your Kensington branch & sort out this weird problem. TY

  • Zenwork21 Zenwork (@Zenwork21) reported from Poplar, England

    @O2 simply unbelievable your tech and security department are not really good stop these damn scam calls #o2

  • RoseHinds Rose Hinds (@RoseHinds) reported from Kensington, England

    @O2 Ah ok thank you. I’ve realised that my free trial with Calm has expired - how can I find out how much this is meant to cost? I’ve been charged twice and was not reminded that it would charge me this month please help

  • KevinWNewman Kevin Newman (@KevinWNewman) reported from London, England

    @ianvisits Pointless arguing against the machine 🤖! Take your business elsewhere Ian. I’m sure @EE or @O2 will be willing to help out!

  • London_W4 Alastair Hilton (@London_W4) reported from Islington, England

    I'll tell you what I love doing. @O2 online surveys. I get a warm feeling deep inside when I receive all their texts asking to rate their service.

  • HowarthCharles Charles Howarth (@HowarthCharles) reported from Camden Town, England

    @JamesTurner37 @O2 It’s disappointing because their customer service staff are uniformly warm and helpful in my experience. It is their systems that are at fault. I know their senior management, but would never try to abuse that by calling in a favour.

  • allyc375 Alison Cameron🐟 (@allyc375) reported from Kensington, England

    @ShieldingG @O2 Now there’s an idea. I wonder where the cleaners put it. I’ve only ever used it for my Dalek thing - never plunged a sink in my life.

  • RoslynBriggs89 Roslyn (@RoslynBriggs89) reported from London, England

    @O2 is one of the worst phone providers. How can I pay off my contract and still get charged. Your website is overcrowded too. Disgusting and poor service.

  • RoseHinds Rose Hinds (@RoseHinds) reported from Kensington, England

    @O2 hi I’ve been charged extra this month for my phone / Apple Watch bill. Please could someone help me and explain why / resolve the issue

  • NeedMoreTea Robert Valentine (@NeedMoreTea) reported from Kensington, England

    @O2 I get masts break down etc, but two weeks is quite a long time.

  • Claudiasabram Claudia Simms Abram (@Claudiasabram) reported from Islington, England

    @O2 is your website down? I can not access my 02 to check an expensive bill nor via a link in a text

  • PaulGrayburn Mr Grayburn (@PaulGrayburn) reported from Romford, England

    @kythespy @O2 Deleted it now, **** ‘em.

  • Mr_Rafal Raf (@Mr_Rafal) reported from Hackney, England

    Hi @O2 I am having problems with receiving some sms messages from my bank. Apparently they are being blocked. How can I get those messages unblocked please?

  • sladey66 It’s only curly at the front (@sladey66) reported from Camberwell, England
