    @O2 Good Morning, I just want to say “thank you” for being awesome. My iPhone decided not to turn on today, so I used my iPad to speak with Shakil o2 customer services chat team and they quickly sorted the issue. Saves me a visit out on a Sunday morning. 🙏

  • mtbpete Pete Sutcliffe (@mtbpete) reported

    @O2 is your online chat down? I’ve been trying all week to renew my tariff and keep being told you are too busy. At this rate I’ll be leaving you for another provider as the price of the tariff I wanted has already increased since I tried to contact you to renew.
