    @O2 How can I stop receiving letters from you for someone how has never lived at my address? After 4 attempts of using your help desk. I've had 4 different responses and I'm still getting mail.

  • LeeJLewis leejlewis (@LeeJLewis) reported from Preston, England

    @O2 It's not my postcode, it's one I'm regularly in where the issue seems to be consistent..

  • franlatics27 Fran Edwards (@franlatics27) reported from Garswood, England

    @O2 can you refund me my monthly payment as all the masts in wigan are down and have been for weeks....thanks

  • psychomania666 PsychoMania (@psychomania666) reported from Burnley, England

    @O2 Signal is just garbage in Burnley centre, has been for years on many different devices. 5G is needed ASAP.

  • grshorwich Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England

    @psychomania666 @O2 At least it was on 3G. Most of the time it falls back to 2G round here. Plenty of boilerplate "we're always striving to improve the network" and "stay tuned" from @O2 but no actual improvement. At this point I'm sure there won't be any except in affluent areas down south.

  • sonnisamosa Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Hello, my data hasn’t worked since yesterday. I’ve reset the network settings and my phone. Any ideas?

  • x_Emma_H_35_x Emma Heyes (@x_Emma_H_35_x) reported from St Helens, England

    @O2 I am absolutely fed up of having no signal it's nearing 7 months now I have 2 contracts it's unacceptable I live in StHelens it's shocking I go Liverpool & get 5G. Then have the cheek to hound me to get new contracts NO sort out the signal I'm furious

  • grshorwich Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England

    @psychomania666 @O2 Brace yourself for a string of promises that will never actually materialise...

  • leannt1984 Leann (@leannt1984) reported from Salford, England

    Hi @O2 I’m both a virgin media customer and have a pay monthly sim with O2 and i am struggling to sign up to Volt! Help!

  • violetibeh Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

  • AdnyNichols Andy Nichols (@AdnyNichols) reported from Horwich, England

    @O2 Hi i changed my contract with you last Wednesday and have been waiting for a delivery order reference KMM2134901340I15977L0KM. It has not arrived yet can you help please.

  • grshorwich Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England

    @psychomania666 @O2 And of course on 3G you do get a reasonable signal but no actual data throughput...

  • 6danicalifornia Dani Tomlinson 🎶 (@6danicalifornia) reported from Horwich, England

    I really wish @O2 can sort out the issues in Horwich. Trying to contact your insurance and police etc after a break in is extremely frustrating when there's no bloody signal 😡😡

  • JMcKnighty ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported from Manchester, England

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

  • Baynesi83 bay (@Baynesi83) reported from Mellor, England

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Here she is again that glam Nan spouting bollocks that is instantly shot down by ordinary people who seem to actually know facts. She really needs to shut up or just read factual information instead of coming across as an incompetent muppet.

  • sonnisamosa Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes it says 4G, I have no idea what’s going on. Is there an issue certain areas possibly?

  • greenbhoy1 Paolo Mac (@greenbhoy1) reported from Prescot, England

    Thread: Twitter people I need some help. I’ve had my broadband with @SkyHelpTeam in excess of 15 years & my mobile with @O2 for not far off. I used up my data early this month, only happened a couple of times that. Topped up for 1GB on Wednesday for £10 & already it has gone.

  • kea11y Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

  • PerryOBree Perry O'Bree (@PerryOBree) reported

    @TheO2 @O2 Does the O2 priority blue lounge still have a cloakroom and if so will they store a bag/ luggage for a gig and then can I collect at the end or does this have to go in the storage facility outside? Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you!

  • sayash98 mayer (@sayash98) reported

    Stayed with @O2 again because of how easy their customer service was… I’m now 45mins in, been offered about 8 different contracts and all I want to do is switch my phone number 🥲🥲

  • stemark01 Ste (@stemark01) reported

    Anyone else here experiencing really terrible Internet from @virginmedia ? customer service is a joke. It seems to have gotten worse since they partnered with @O2

  • danrobborobson Robbo (@danrobborobson) reported

    @O2 Fixing the faulty mast that’s ‘not your fault it’s broken’ would be decent, no signal for 12 months around our home area #excellentservice #o2notrecommended

  • tansea13 TanyaRoberta (@tansea13) reported
