    @O2 had a called yesterday about a upgrade and the person was going to call me back at 3.00 yesterday I am still waiting....this morning I have called been on hold for 30 minutes to be cut off what a joke bad customer service...I have been a customer with you for 18 years

  • ChrisSammons_
    Chris Sammons (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I appreciate theres obviously a serious issue, I’ve never known signal to be down for so long at one time. There needs to be a conversation at some stage regarding a substantial reimbursement on this months tariff, because to not have any signal whatsoever for this long is a pain

  • matthew_74
    Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 Hi, I completely appreciate the guidance there but, no, it doesn't. When I got through three weeks ago, your colleague was going to escalate my query. I never got the promised call back, hence me trying more recently.

    @O2 outgoing and incoming call issues all over westmidlands.

    @O2 Thats the answer I expected to be honest, to a customer of 18 years 👍🏼

    I’ve just been in to the @O2 store to get a new sim, fantastic service in store, however, I was shocked to find my contract has gone up £6 since October? How does that work??

  • RefinedSavage
    Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England

    Seems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

  • 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)

  • PhilTonks2
    Phil Tonks (@PhilTonks2) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 Just runs very slow, if at all. Advised in the past to change settings in phone to use 3G but it's hardly practical to keep doing this. 4G+ in the City Centre just seems overloaded much of the time. Other half on Vodafone no issues at all. Very frustrating.

    @paulwrightyboy @O2 @TelefonicaUK @MarkEvansO2 I have full signal...and 4G

    @o2. Like clockwork every week O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Sorry, a phone mast close to you isn't working as well as we would expect Our engineers are carrying out some checks to investigate issues in this area...

  • MrTegSingh

    @O2 customer services shocking after spending nearly 3 hours on the phone to them I had to go to the wolves store and sort it out myself. Massive thank you too Jeeves who works at o2 wolves for finding me a phone reserving it at merry hill I know have my new phone

  • Bigglesdaf
    Andrew (@Bigglesdaf) reported from Wombourne, England

    @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @O2 Try it they seem to be willing to cancel for those who escalate to the ombudsman service

  • MikeKlymko
    Mike Klymko (@MikeKlymko) reported from Dudley, England

    @O2 really disappointed with the service I’m getting from O2. Poor coverage, dropped calls, slow texts, no internet, been like this for 5 months, No sign of a fix, difficult call centre staff hide behind “policy” to avoid being helpful. If you need a new provider - Avoid O2

  • ChrisSammons_
    Chris Sammons #StayHomeSaveLives (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    I would also like to add this will be TWO CALENDAR MONTHS with no signal @O2, TWO WHOLE MONTHS #TinPotNetwork #B73

  • Dedicated_Mole
    Gertrude Englebert 🇪🇺 (@Dedicated_Mole) reported from Burntwood, England

    @O2 my new phone arrived a week ago today on refresh but the network is still on my old phone. I have removed sim and switched on and off. How do I get the network to switch to my new phone??

  • Brumdad30
    Rudi Feix (@Brumdad30) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 will someone please help me!!! Bloody useless o2

  • GoGishiGoGo
    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 👏 🙄

  • RampziieTweets
    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

  • StevoJones1984
    Steve Jones (@StevoJones1984) reported from West Bromwich, England

    I seriously can't wait to get off @O2. Their customer service has been top notch, but the signal is beyond a joke.

    @O2 Please take down your offensive poster "Pride Month" currently in the window on Chiswick High Street. I am glad to report that you are the ONLY company stupid enough to continue with the "Trans" nonsense. Pl ditch it. Every other company has desisted - thank you @sainsburys @Hbgrafton others

  • xLg06493461

    @O2 Thankssssss but I Already dm’ d you guys twice and no response… however after sending the complaint email 13 times one after the other I finally got a response to say they’re gonna investigate.

  • walksy10
    Gavin Walker (@walksy10) reported

    @O2 @Place_of_Zen How about let the man speak to someone on the phone, shouldn't be too hard as you are a PHONE service provider

  • KerZE87
    emze (@KerZE87) reported

    @O2 do you think I haven’t been trying that? Your engineer team have been working on masts for weeks now and when they give the completion date it’s never fixed!

  • Happyengland79
    Shana Hendry (@Happyengland79) reported

    Looks like it's Ombudsman time this evening @O2. Two of them in fact. Can't speak to anyone at O2 as English is not their first language, totally unacceptable! No refund means the problem was never resolved! All you do is lie and I have the proof! #evidenceforombudsman

  • bigtev25
    Terry Mcconnell (@bigtev25) reported

    @O2 why is it impossible to sign in to the my O2 app now. And it keeps bouncing to virgin

  • KerZE87
    emze (@KerZE87) reported

    o2 this is getting ridiculous now either you sort your signalling issues out in my town or refund me monthly bill for the service you haven’t been providing for WEEEEEKS @O2

  • markcallow10
    mark callow (@markcallow10) reported

    @davehpayne @O2 Because they use o2! Been with them years and last 2/3 years they have gone to pot utterly useless in every way with no signal in half the country and that’s being optimistic

  • CraigEmbleton_
    craig (@CraigEmbleton_) reported

    @O2 Respectfully I disagree with that. Nobody who lives near me has phone signal. But I have phone signal when I leave the town I live in. Your signal checker shows no issues either

  • PhatSuppliUK
    PhatSuppliUK (@PhatSuppliUK) reported

    Who's got a decent phone network that actually works outside ? @O2 have to be the worst ever right now No 4g or 5g working anywhere right now No one helps either, shocking customer service for the price
