    @seanp280 @O2 Where are you in Belfast? I live beside city hospital and I get full bars all over the city, 5G too! Only when I venture into the depths of County Down does it deteriorate lol

  • 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.

  • 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).

  • AskkeithInfo askkeith.info (@AskkeithInfo) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @O2 Reece in your forestside store was a legend I ran through door cut off from world and all sorted for phone and lap top in 12 mins a credit to public service he’ll be snapped up by someone soon give him a pay rise and pat on back

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

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

    @O2 Hi my gran is an elderly customer of 02 and keeps getting calls from 02 and has said many times not to ring her again and you keep doing so I want an explanation !

  • 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!

  • IanRobinson Ian Robinson (@IanRobinson) reported from Stormont, Northern Ireland

    @chriswb @O2 No. Plus it says No Service where the O2 logo should be. I might try the SIM in my O2 iPhone.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 🙄

  • 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.

  • 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

  • taelonv taelonv (@taelonv) reported

    How are some companies like @O2 so uk centric that their customer service are infuriating it makes me loose my temper!!!!! I haven’t received a paper bill in over 10 years and cannot check my address in my online account but yet I can’t pass security unless I give an address???

  • Primiti40634097 :Keith: (@Primiti40634097) reported

    I do not need the traitorous government to alert me to any kind of danger, I'm quite capable of working that **** out myself, as someone else said, the fact they have been handed everyone's number is a breach of GDPR as no consent was given, @O2 will be sent notice of breach.

  • M477OLI Matthew JS Oliver (@M477OLI) reported

    Anyone have any history with broken screens with @O2? Pretty sure my warranty covers it but there's nothing to say for certain and can't get through to anyone.

  • dizauda16 Dizauda16 (@dizauda16) reported

    Never use @O2 shocking company that try to rob you and fail to keep their word.

  • tony_sutton Tony Sutton (@tony_sutton) reported

    Hi @O2 - is it possible to buy a cheap data SIM card that I can use for network coverage and speed testing? I don't want to spend £30 only to find I have bad coverage and/or slow speed. Thanks.

  • Plantstacey Stacey plant 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@Plantstacey) reported

    @O2 this seriously is the shittest network and customer service ever. For 2 months now have been ignored and nothing been done. #shitcustomerservice #badservice @Ofcom

  • Murtle007 J Hill (@Murtle007) reported

    Hi @O2 no phone signal or 4g in the Dy6 area been off all day

  • weyland76 Matt 🏳️‍🌈 (@weyland76) reported

    Anyone recommend a good mobile provider other than @o2? I know no one will be perfect but there must be a company out there who can actually provide a usable phone signal? I have full 4g at the moment but having to use train wi-fi instead because absolutely nothing is loading.

  • spasypaddy Daniel (@spasypaddy) reported

    I just picked up an @O2 payg sim card and I can't seem to login on the app or register a new account because I once had a pay monthly sim... It won't let me do a password reset either.

  • claudes1987 Claudine Emmanuel (@claudes1987) reported

    No network coverage for @O2 for 4 days in potters bar herts. so bad!
