  • SWAshleigh Ashleigh Shaw (@SWAshleigh) reported from Ballygowan, Northern Ireland

    How do I make a complaint with @O2

  • BrendanB2 Brendan Bonner (@BrendanB2) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 I wouldn’t recommend anyone buying online and redeeming your phone. Go to the store, you can’t trust any of the online and virtual services. Was a handling getting phone set up, getting help and they only give you 50% of the value they say (no matter how good your phone is).

  • JeremyAdamsNI Jeremy Adams (@JeremyAdamsNI) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 AirPods and 🎅 is looking after them! Again fantastic service.

  • McGuinnessKevin Kevin McGuinness (@McGuinnessKevin) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @o2 any chance you can sort out the masts in Belfast.. really slow connections and dropped connections, I’m even with o2 (was with you when it was BT Cellnet) I’m with sky who use your network but I know of o2 customers having the same issues. #o2network

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 you guys got a number to your payments team? I need to speak to someone. Automated IVR is poor.

  • leannereid1988 leane reid (@leannereid1988) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @O2 in o2 shop in newtownards the 3 fellas in the shop couldn't have bin any nicer and very helpful even when the problem was my own fault! Saved me a trip to Samsung! Def need a pay rise!! Thank you =)

  • kkanecelt kierankane (@kkanecelt) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @o2 is the worst shittiest network I've ever been on in my life

  • thebaldfather Hugh Pollock (@thebaldfather) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 I am amazed by the lack of support from your network. Trying for a week now to get help and your help and advice is pathetic when you eventually answer.

  • niamharmagh11 Niamh Thornbury (@niamharmagh11) reported from Lurgan, Northern Ireland

    Is anyone else having problems with the 4g on @O2 😭 please tell me my phone not broke

  • UlsterMag Blah Blah Blah (@UlsterMag) reported from Banbridge, Northern Ireland

    @O2 Carphone Warehouse I think. I was told because my contract was with o2, they would fix it.

  • EmGymMum Em (@EmGymMum) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 @KLogan1977 Update: So @O2 asked me to DM details of the issue. I sent it hours ago, yet still no response. I wonder if there is an intention to help or it is an illusion of good customer service. Nor have I got promised call back after 22 hours from the CS phoneline. Not good!!

  • columcoyle Colum Coyle (@columcoyle) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @angelcosta78 @DPDgroup_news @O2 @AppleSupport I’ve sent a complaint to O2 asking for a refund of the three days I’m missing out on my device plan. They’ve already charged me!

  • columcoyle Colum Coyle (@columcoyle) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @angelcosta78 @DPDgroup_news @O2 @AppleSupport Just checked and its now saying the same for me! Apparently it takes a full 26 hours to get from Birmingham to Down 🙄

  • JeremyAdamsNI Jeremy Adams (@JeremyAdamsNI) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Great customer service @O2. Placed an online order at 6.30pm last night and arrived 4.45pm in Belfast.

  • UberGeekFanboy Fanboy (@UberGeekFanboy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 trying to phone through to return a phone and keep getting cut off? Wtf.

  • apallan ANN P V ALLAN (@apallan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @Girlzmum Very poor service from @O2 especially to a front line worker in the NHS #NHS who needs her phone.

  • mcadam_rob Rob McAdam (@mcadam_rob) reported from Lurgan, Northern Ireland

    @coolfm just when you feel it could be you winning the cool cash call , the stupid networks @tescomobile & @O2 are down and have been for over an hour now 😠

  • Utter_Dil_Emma Mad Madame Em (@Utter_Dil_Emma) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    I assume my bus home crashed and I died because hell is surely dealing with @O2 customer service chat for a ******* hour and a half.

  • DAVIDBUZZ2904 DAVIDBUZZ2904 (@DAVIDBUZZ2904) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    My phone isn't receiving SMS messages from certain people @O2 . I can send, I have tried 2 phones. Some sort of network blocking?

  • Liam_The_Red Liam (@Liam_The_Red) reported

    @O2 @aheadless @grok why can o2 no longer offer support on Twitter / X

  • kellyjholland Kelly Holland❤ (@kellyjholland) reported

    @Karrisbella @O2 @O2 Currently have a 343 minute wait on live chat because the first person couldn’t deal with the enquiry and has transferred knowing full well they’ll be closed by the time I get through, been on hold an hour trying to speak to someone AGAIN!!!!! Absolutely appalling service

  • Coxy847 Jonathan Wilcox (@Coxy847) reported

    @Nippyted @O2 @youfibre Oh wow, that is terrible

  • teamhill888 Lee Hill 8️⃣ (@teamhill888) reported

    @O2 without doubt the most shambolic and shameful upgrade process. Ordered paid and new phone set up, transferred mobile service and nothing works 2 days on with chat and CS and now in store and they can’t sort it Beyond terrible

  • tristansummers tristansummers (@tristansummers) reported

    @O2 @aheadless Sounds like a cop out answer to me. Would love more technical details of why you can no longer support via twitter

  • therealjpod Jason (@therealjpod) reported

    @O2 I keep getting network updates via SMS and email even though I'm no longer a customer. I can't stop them as there is no unsubscribe feature

  • neil_j_w Neil Weatherall (@neil_j_w) reported

    @O2 how do we speak direct to the “containment team “ please. This is the team who write letters for credit referral errors , or so we have been told.

  • beelinbaxter Beelin (@beelinbaxter) reported

    @O2 have forgot my voicemail PIN, so can't reset it myself. How do I get help to reset?

  • gullybobbins Gully-Bob (@gullybobbins) reported

    @O2 what are you playing at?You have been charging my 78 year old father for two mobile phone contracts instead of one for the last 2 years. He’s 50% blind, with only one leg and you have just told him to walk 4 miles into town to cancel his contract instore! Really? Really?
