SAB Photography (@sabphotos69) reported from Woodside, England@simonmaroulis @O2 @ThreeUK The mast near me. Hasn’t worked in now 19months. I understand dead spots, but I struggle to get a 4g signal anywhere. Utterly ridiculous.
-
Gordé (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England@o2 signal in birmingham, on 4g but nothing working, been like this was at least a week now, struggling to see why im playing £60 a month to use wi-fi only.
-
Tom Bradshaw (@_tombradshaw) reported from Birmingham, England@EnglandRugby @SixNationsRugby @O2 Hate seeing Marchant out the 23, feels like he never gets a run of games… but a strong team, and a hell of a bench!
-
Claire B🐈⬛🐈⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, EnglandThat, @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.....
-
Gish Abeyratne (@GoGishiGoGo) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 customer service nailing it once again! Information on the website is about as useful as having a third armpit, and then you call and the automated system cuts you off. Bravo you feckless morons 👏 🙄
-
Dad (@RampziieTweets) reported from Walsall Wood, England@TheO2 @O2 can you sort your network in Walsall, Birmingham. I put a complaint in at the beginning of the year and it’s STILL unbearable
-
Suki Randhawa (@sukirandhawa4x4) reported from Walsall Wood, England@O2 why is your reception in the #WestMidlands so bad #Willenhall #Walsall showing 4G internet buffering all the time, considering moving on to another network after 20 plus years with you.
-
Nas Mahmud (@M5Mahmud) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 I had a issue with my billing and spoke to several of your phone assistants who did not help much at all, kept batting me off to Ariel Direct who also were useless. I finally got through to Tracy who explained the situation in 2 mins and resolved the issue, pls reward her.
-
Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, EnglandHi @O2 I've tried to call about a technical problem (more a frustration) regarding voicemail. Called a couple of times last week, where messages advises you were busy. Now the message says, 'Use the website' and then hangs up. Any suggestions?
-
Amy Bradwell (@amy_bradwell) reported from Birmingham, England@O2 I want to cancel my order with yourselves as the iPhone 12 pros are not included in the open discount.
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@O2 9 hours after you reported it fixed (again). O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.
-
Gracie xo (@gracielou_xx) reported from Swindon, EnglandI can’t believe I was on the phone to @O2 for a good hour and all senior members of staff refusing to come to the phone to answer queries about random, large charges on my bill. Instead leaving a less qualified member to try and help with absolutely no support or assistance 🤢

-
Matthew Ridsdale (@MattRidsdale) reported@O2 Well, I have never known anything as utterly shambolic as your customer service! Another two hours wasted tonight trying to help my mum resolve an issue with that occurred in JUL2025! Still no sign of a resolution. Come on, let's get it sorted. This is beyond a joke.
-
Lincs Lass (@Nmxx1734) reported@O2 Hi, are you having issues in the LN11 area (Louth, Lincolnshire)? The service checker says it's perfect 5G, but it really isn't! People are talking about it on the FB community pages. You can't get on banking apps, send or receive on WhatsApp or Messenger, nothing at all!
-
Ady Hewitt (@adyhewitt) reported@o2 still awaiting my call back from your customer support team from yesterday afternoon
-
john (@jhargie4) reported@o2 @virginmedia @Virgin CEO LUTZ SCHUELER seems only your bot accounts actually care about the customer
-
Terry (@tgloughnane) reported@O2 Once again spent most of the weekend with no mobile internet! O2 are supposed to be a big player in the mobile world! WTF are you doing?
-
kevineasson (@kevineasson) reported@mattsprake @O2 @EE I also left 02 after 15 years and went to EE even on full signal phone hardly ever worked. EE far better with more 5G
-
Niki Lemon (@NikiLemon1) reported@O2 our ddr didn’t go out at the beginning of the month. You have sent a letter and email to the business but the named person doesn’t work for us anymore and you won’t talk to any of us.. need help
-
Frazer (@FJZ05) reported@O2 Your 5G signal in Nottingham City Centre is absolutely abysmal and has been for a long time. When are you going to do something about it? It’s a joke I’m paying what I am for such poor service. It’s become virtually impossible to use my iPhone reliably. Truly awful.
-
Darth Wader (@LordoftheSplash) reported@TakeThatClouds @O2 Just moved to Smarty becuase of **** like this, at one point a few years ago my number suddenly stopped working, they’d issued a pac code for my number and given it away, couldn’t get it back, so gave me a year for nothing, as soon as that was up I was off, 02 are utter ****.

Noemie (@NoemieN22) reported@O2 why is your signal so poor in Cambridgeshire
