  • JanGoodeve Cllr Jan Goodeve (@JanGoodeve) reported from Hertfordshire, England

  • pilgrimbeart Pilgrim Beart (@pilgrimbeart) reported from Royston, England

    Seems @O2 are preparing for 5G by making 4G unusable - several places like this with great signal (5 bars, 4G+) but zero bandwidth

  • bks67 bridget sparks (@bks67) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @O2 I do have the app, I think I will phone the customer service team and ask them,

  • mrjc90 Josh (@mrjc90) reported from Hitchin, England

    @O2 not sure when your call centre in Cape Town opened but it’s been extremely painful trying to solve a simple issue..I might of been unlucky but think staff could do with some further training

  • EmJen81 Matthew J (@EmJen81) reported from Dunstable, England

    @O2 Why, for the past 6 months can I STILL not upgrade my phone online or any of your stores due to your dire lack of stock. I've had this phone for 3 years and it's dying. Yet you never seem to have any stock. Other networks aren't having issues!? Time to switch perhaps.

  • ohhollygosh Holly O (@ohhollygosh) reported from Biggleswade, England

    @O2 Hi, how do I cancel Disney+ using the O2 app?

  • AEgbuonu ARIBBUZZ (@AEgbuonu) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @O2 sort your cancellation team and phone problem out. #poorcustomerservice

  • Kami2k10 Kamiioo (@Kami2k10) reported from Luton, England

    @BBCNews @O2 worst coverage ever no solutions. The network towers always down but yet I'm still paying 55£ p.m i have no choice but to pay!! #ripoffbritain #conmen

  • lornahamblin3 Lorna Hamblin (@lornahamblin3) reported from Royston, England

    Nice tweet @O2 though please ensure my mother's number transfer issue is rectified and I will believe your sincerity...! Delivery late and phone number transfer not yet successful so not impressed so far..perhaps if you can take calls from relatives it would help vulnerable more.

  • cove123 mark nicolson (@cove123) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @O2 opened app to use bacon sandwich offer local greggs not open yet for some reason @GreggsOfficial Wgc poor

  • 848Jake Jake Kirby (@848Jake) reported from Toddington, England

    @O2 trying to cancel a SIM you set up without being asked, waiting an hour on the phone with no help yet - disgraceful customer service

  • HilaryRWriter Hilary Robertson (@HilaryRWriter) reported from Hitchin, England

    @O2 Yes. I’m trying to cancel my mobile broadband and cannot do it on myO2. The ‘help’ keeps sending me round in circles

  • isthatdan Dan (@isthatdan) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @O2 are gonna have to either offer me an amazing deal or sort out this horrendous signal issue. How can I not load a twitter video when I have a full 4 bars of 4G signal

  • juliet_gough juliet gough (@juliet_gough) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @O2 I have an enquiry and can’t find an answer on the ‘My O2’ page. Please help. #CustomerService #o2

  • SteveAttw00d Steve Attwood (@SteveAttw00d) reported from Ampthill, England

    @O2 @tescomobile your claim to cover 4G for 99% UK population isn't my experience. I don't think you can back it up. Often I switch to 2G just to get a phone signal that works.

  • Shaz_Kingervi Shaz (@Shaz_Kingervi) reported

    I don’t get full coverage for voice & text. Forget 5G I don’t even get 3G where I live. So how the heck can you - esp the chief exec justify 17.3% rise from April? Honestly @O2 I’ve been a loyal customer last 22 years. @MartinSLewis can you look into this daylight robbery by o2?

  • AndyMarsla Andy Marsland (@AndyMarsla) reported

    @O2 customer services is dreadful. Still not answering there phone, I have tried numerous times and waited half an hour before I had to ring off. Think twice about using 02

  • LaurenRose94_ Lauren 🦋 (@LaurenRose94_) reported

    @O2 I paid my phone bill over 24 hours ago but I’ve still not got my service back, can you help please?

  • 5elementsuk Tony Willis (@5elementsuk) reported

    Another day with O2 business wasting my time. Surely it cant be that difficult thats your business. Even the automated message on customer service tells you wrong info. If you send the sms it tells you then you get a response saying that option no longer works @O2 @o2businessuk

  • perryhoulgrave Perry Houlgrave (@perryhoulgrave) reported

    @virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 Question: Are you the worst company in the UK for Customer Service or is it just me that doesn't deserve any assistance? 25 hours on WhatsApp and you have so far only asked if I am happy to continue waiting.

  • TechwithLee81 Lee 🇬🇧 (@TechwithLee81) reported

    Had a message from @O2 CEO office stating they're looking into my issue and will respond in 3 working days. It's now been 5. I sent an email yesterday and got no reply. It seems O2 are just a **** company.

  • dalotos Clan MacArthur (@dalotos) reported

    @virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 Customer care is appalling and trying to leave is a terrible customer experience. You can't cancel contract online. It has cost me hours (days for a confirmation email) and once you get through to the disconnection dep. (3x), there's no guarantee you won't have to go do it again.

  • THEWHITLAM THEWHITLAM (@THEWHITLAM) reported

    @O2 how can you justify a 13% plus 3% price increase ? This is way above inflation. I’ve switched tariff down but I’d still challenge the sheer ripoff amount you’re taking

  • WezG Wez G (@WezG) reported

    @karaokejackie @O2 They are pretty shocking with customer service to be fair in a modern world with general appalling customer service everywhere - I guess it’s good to stand out from the crowd…

  • Alma1884ok Alma (@Alma1884ok) reported

    @virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 Why do you not allow customers to cancel renewed contacts at vastly inflated prices. Cannot get through on the phone or online. You are an absolute joke.
