  • DeanMSimons Dean but festive (@DeanMSimons) reported from Birmingham, England

    hey @O2, I’m trying to enter my IMEI number on the Recycle site to start the process of trade in for my new contract but it’s not accepting it? Pretty sure my iPhone is genuine after all these years haha. Could you help?

  • TheCakeSpa The Cake Spa (@TheCakeSpa) reported from Lichfield, England

    Absolute garbage signal in central #lichfield again today @O2 - I have been with you over 20 years but I think I'm gonna have to bail. The last 2 years have been awful!

  • _tombradshaw 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!

  • sukirandhawa4x4 Suki Randhawa (@sukirandhawa4x4) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @O2 why is your reception in the #PathaanCollection WestMidlands so bad #Willenhall #Walsall showing 4G internet buffering considering moving on to another network.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • John10649040 John (@John10649040) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 @jimswanstonlive That crap answer does not improve your **** network . How about Birmingham B12 again utter Shite signal ! Guess what I know the local mast is down but it has been ever since I have been with you !

  • 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!!!

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

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

  • sukirandhawa4x4 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.

  • 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.

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

    @O2 Thanks, it was worth a try, but unfortunately I can't open the link because my connection speed is apparently too slow.

  • P2EKY David Peek (@P2EKY) reported

    @O2 To add if we have to phone to resolve this we will just return the sim and cancel the contract.

  • SoundEngUK An Audio Engineer (@SoundEngUK) reported

    @O2 Actually I'd like to talk to a real person. These online guides are not going to help me when O2s system doesn't work properly!

  • SoundEngUK An Audio Engineer (@SoundEngUK) reported

    @O2 It is a LOT of areas! This is not an isolated problem, it happens at random in areas, often towns and cities, in which I'd expect decent network access!

  • Jonesyy87 Mikey (@Jonesyy87) reported

    @O2 Nope she's been with o2 a while plus she's down as a business... lord knows why..... its aerial direct she's with

  • JamesD_1807 James D (@JamesD_1807) reported

    Making the switch to @EE , picked up a decent SIM only deal for my S21 Ultra. For 3 months I have been asking @O2 to fix a problem with losing voicemail since upgrading, no promised call backs. Tried @EE PAYG to check service, speeds are amazing and no need for Wi-Fi calling!

  • kaaayleeeighh K (@kaaayleeeighh) reported

    @O2 hello, I keep receiving error 0 when texting o2 to get my loyalty discount off my air time. How can I fix this?

  • slimphaith Duyile Ore'Oluwa (@slimphaith) reported

    @O2 You guys are frustrating me with your service!!! I filled "keep my number" request form yesterday *for the second time* while on the call with your center. Got a mail today to contact you on webchat, but no one's available! What more do you want?? I need access to my sim ASAP!!!

  • MarcusChurchill Marcus Churchill (@MarcusChurchill) reported

    @O2 you need to sort out your customer services and sales. You have a great network/coverage,but the hassle to sign up or organise changes is PAINFUL. Awful customer ‘experience’. Left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing, constantly being transferred and put on hold.

  • GeorginaDepree Georgina Depree (@GeorginaDepree) reported

    @RobertyBeck Will be touch about the terrible service I hoped to have had from @O2

  • ohemgem_ gem 🌸 (@ohemgem_) reported

    Anybody else have absolutely shocking signal on @O2?? It’s 2022 and I can only get 2 bars of 3G signal most days 🙃
