  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 Getting very close to the point of cancelling my order. The port has failed and I have no service. Cannot get through to your support as there are no agents available. No reply to FB message since 9 am. The clock is ticking...

  • charlll18x Charlotte (@charlll18x) reported from Dudley, England

    Dunno what’s worse your “priority” or signal @O2

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 After spending 6 hours trying to get hold of customer services, I ended up driving (and paying for parking) to go to one of your shops to get a sim swap. This apparently the only to get service working. Not the best of starts.

  • Crystalcraftand Crystalcraft Andy (@Crystalcraftand) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 so Im looking to upgrade my phone. Problem is, the elements of my pay monthly plan are now split and out of sync. Virgin Handset is now mine but 20 months left on O2 airtime plan.  I cant cancel my O2 plan in order to start again (it wont let me change tariffs for 20 months)

  • Tracey_Devina Tracey_Devina (@Tracey_Devina) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 I’m at home for the next 5+ days with covid, my data’s gone, I followed up a text I received to say up my data… it starts on Friday - what’s the actual point. Can you help now, when it matters?!

  • PeteVillan1981 Carpy Villan™️ (@PeteVillan1981) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @gazswain @O2 O2 🤝 Virgin - dog **** mobile networks

  • MuslimShamir Follow Poor Shamir Claimant Ali Entrapment (@MuslimShamir) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Answer the phone. Is your phone not working ? Is it a desk phone or mobile you using ?

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 I assume free coffee is cheaper than investing in network capacity.

  • hijabiexplorer Mimii Hatun |Y| aka Ms Begum (@hijabiexplorer) reported from Birmingham, England

    Typical of @o2 for not cancelling my line when I a called in during the cooling off period to cancel the contract. #Thieves

  • KittykatClaire Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    That, @O2 had better coverage now I'm left with all this extra stress when I'm out because my mobile doesn't work when using @O2 network.... Its not my mobile either. I have a Samsung s20.....

  • amanmarway batgirl (@amanmarway) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 have still not processed a refund from March/April (despite being promised at the time I wouldn’t even be overcharged and my account had already been credited) Two weeks ago I was told payment would be with me in 5 days but I’m chasing ONCE AGAIN Atrocious customer service

  • Cheadle Hooty McOwlface (@Cheadle) reported from Birmingham, England

    @whatphilsaid @O2 It’s horrendous. Who would have thought the network could actually get worse as technology improves

  • KittykatClaire Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 can you stop advising people to "reset network settings" when your network has problems. This didn't fix the problem with your network and unfortunately wipes out all WiFi and Bluetooth settings, which then need manually setting up again. Not good advice at all.

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 just changing to O2 as I opted for deal with Virgin. Disappointed with how poor your coverage is locally in the B90 area. Where I had over 200mbits 5G with three, I am now lucky to get 20mbits with O2. Do you have plans to improve your network? Have I made a mistake?

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @o2 why is your service unusable in areas that your map says has good coverage? No backhaul bandwidth? B90 4AJ poor outside nothing inside. B13 0UR poor inside. Intermittent connectivity in spite of reasonable signal. Three works perfectly onside and out.

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 why does the local B90 4AJ mast go faulty EVERY week. 6 weeks in a row now, we get no service until it is repaired. You need better repair engineers as their repairs do not even last a week!!!

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 working like clockwork? It goes faulty every week. "O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

  • auspices richard (@auspices) reported from Birmingham, England

    anyone else I know have @O2 as a mobile phone network? I may as well not have a phone it’s straight up awful coverage

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 That looks like an Apple device. #Alexa won’t help you there. #Siri might.

  • Syedofficial90 Sy Ahmed (@Syedofficial90) reported

    @O2 Can someone from customer service call me? I’ve been on the line for 45 minutes at a time for the past few days but no luck!!! Ridiculous!

  • naomitaylorart Naomi Taylor (@naomitaylorart) reported

    @O2 every week i’m on the app for 2pm to get the Odeon tickets and the ‘use now’ button comes up and I click it but it says ‘sorry there is a problem with your request’ I used to be able to get tickets when I pressed the use now button as am there exactly on time. So frustrating

  • 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 !!!

  • Sentfromdevon1 Sentfromdevon (@Sentfromdevon1) reported

    @O2 thank your CEO for me please. His lack luster attempted to making it sound like, you raising the prices again of my line rental is a wonderful Idea. Pity the service is shocking for the hike in prices. X

  • NicholasFawcet5 Nicholas Fawcett (@NicholasFawcet5) reported

    @O2 1hr 24 minutes on hold and counting listening to mind numbing god awful music .

  • harmeetsbrar Harmeet Singh Brar (@harmeetsbrar) reported

    @O2 i love how my bill has gone up but the services has gone down

  • simonr555 Simon Richardson (@simonr555) reported

    @amyclement94 @O2 Signal is awful bloody everywhere and when you do get 5G it stops everything working!

  • 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

  • dg2642_david David Gandy (@dg2642_david) reported

    @philrandall @O2 The Office for National Statistics no longer regards RPI as an official measure of inflation. My broadband supplier doing the same BUT has recognised how difficult price increases are at this awful time of being British so have decided to give us a 3 months let off. Why can't @o2

  • NicholasFawcet5 Nicholas Fawcett (@NicholasFawcet5) reported

    @O2 Do not go anywhere near this company . Been on hold over an hr to cancel a sim, passed from pillar to post . 3rd day in a row I’ve tried to cancel this . Customer service is non existent
