Adam Farnsworth (@farnsworth_adam) reported from Romford, England@O2 Why do call from different numbers every single day? Sometimes more than once! When i ask the caller to update it they say they will but never do.
-
Nico Macdonald (@Nico_Macdonald) reported from Poplar, England@O2 There is/was a problem with your online payment system application, as your call centre colleagues note, but there is no pinned Tweet about this and nothing on your Web site (which prioritises upwelling to your customers more than facilitating them paying their bills)

Neil G (@granth1974) reportedMy postcode BR1 5BJ shows 5G+ good coverage yet I get 4G only. I pay 5G so you are in breach of contract for failing to deliver service I signed up for. Please fix this. @O2
-
John Till (@JohnTillUK) reportedMy saga with @o2 just gets better and better. Raise a complaint and asked to be contacted by email, receive an acknowledgement of my preference… So what do they do, try calling me instead. Getting sick of it now.
-
John Till (@JohnTillUK) reported@sackedseafarer @O2 Not this time, my original complaint was about that - their resolution, after lots of back and forth, was to allow me to leave without paying an early termination fee (so a £380 saving). I wanted to view my final bill through their app, along with tracking my device plans 1/

Sheldini (@sheldinij) reportedGetting properly fed up now by the terrible service. Not doing what you say. Lies lies lies. @O2
-
Nilesh Thanki (@NileshGThanki) reportedLooking 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!
-
TheLifeOfJapi (@TheLifeOfJapi) reportedNo internet coming upto 30days from your service, three attempts for a technician to call us for no call to ever be made, and now just been hung up on by your call handlers. @O2 what's going on why can't we get a technician or even our internet sorted? All calls are recorded.

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!
-
Sean Barrett (@SeanRBarrett) reportedDisappointed to see that in 6yrs @O2 has made zero effort to role out 5G across Wales.! Outside of Cardiff, nothing. 23% reach according to OFCOM. It was the same 6yrs ago!! WTF!🤬
-
Peter Knowles (@PeteKnowles_) reported@O2 I have been hacked, my email compromised and deleted and your customer service lines are so bad - I’m trying to submit a complaint and your website won’t even accept it stating an error - total shambles.
-
Leanne (@LeanneMoulden) reported@O2 Customer Services is a painful process. The issues that we’ve experienced in the language barrier and the accidental cancelling and taking out of new contracts by your staff is beyond stupid! Attempting to rectify it is as difficult is climbing Everest in a Bikini!
