    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.

    @O2 when I upgrade with a different network next week do I cancel my direct debit with you? Or do you do it ? @Barclays

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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,

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

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

  • 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

  • johndpmc none of your business (@johndpmc) reported from Luton, England

    @O2 words fail me with how shockingly bad you are Your service is appalling, doing a sim swap on my behalf without telling me or having the new sim in my possession!So now no phone or contact to anyone unless in WiFi, wanna hope I have no accidents when I’m outside!! #theworst

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

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

  • 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.

  • Steve_Edwards77 Steve Edwards (@Steve_Edwards77) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @westspice @O2 Awful service for me today!

    @O2 I need to cancel my phone contract, but your only option is to call. I now live in a different country. Please can I cancel a different way. And can you get back to my DM please? Thanks

  • sam27362869 sam (@sam27362869) reported

    Why has @O2 been fixing my brothers iPad for months and keep charging him full price every month when it’s fully insured and he’s not had it back for months ! He’s been on hold for over 16 hours last week alone ! Terrible customer service considering how much he pays !!!

  • Jackerlus_ Jackerlus (@Jackerlus_) reported

    @TheTacticalBrit @O2 fyi, tesco mobile use the O2 network infrastructure and aren't including annual CPI increases in contracts until 27th march. if you want a locked price pick up a contract with them before that date.

  • blackrebelpete Pete Owen (@blackrebelpete) reported

    @garyker @O2 @Ofcom This is disgusting. Already over priced. Tied into Virgin contract and terrible coverage.

  • reconimages_ XYZ Aerial Solutions (@reconimages_) reported

    @sabphotos69 @supertanskiii @O2 Maybe time to find a new network.

  • NicholasFawcet5 Nicholas Fawcett (@NicholasFawcet5) reported

    @O2 Passed to 3 different people , non would let me pay of the £18.43 I owe. Not capable of putting me through to the correct department?How on earth would customers ever go with or stay with you with this sort of awful customer service ? Probably now the worst I’ve ever had

  • Andy_Watt Andy Watt (@Andy_Watt) reported

    Interesting customer retention policy from @o2. Rang about the price rise and they offered me a more expensive plan with more data (don't even use what I currently have). Cancelled both Sims after that. #o2priceincrease

  • SirBlimelyWindy Neil Jeffery (@SirBlimelyWindy) reported

    @wonder_girlx @O2 Possibly- he was speaking so damn quickly

  • CamBike1 Cam Bike (@CamBike1) reported

    @khas01 @O2 What's bad with rises like this, is that most of the items in the RPI basket have little or no impact on the actual cost of O2 providing the service, so they are using inflation to justify the rise then adding some on top for good measure.

  • bluenexi Blue Nexi (@bluenexi) reported

    @O2 no way did odeon tickets go in first few seconds they became available. I had 2 phones on it and it crashed immediately on both and now saying out of stock. This was the one benefit I stick with o2 for and since you changed to any day never get them. #noreasontostay #dodgy
