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

    @villa4ever29 @Virgin @O2 Awful mobile coverage for the last 12 months. Shame I’m tied in to my contract for another 6 months. It’s been particularly bad the last couple of weeks. No 4G available and switching between 3G & EDGE regularly. Appalling

  • 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

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

    @O2 yet again unable to charge my car because the signal from isn’t good enough.

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

    Don’t know what I’m paying for as it is can’t name a place I actually get signal, now a massive price increase. Can’t wait to leave @O2

  • _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.

  • James_Burton04 James Burton (@James_Burton04) reported from Tamworth District, England

    Loosing the will to live with @O2 and the appalling lack of customer service!! Nearly 4 weeks and still no refund received!!

  • sabphotos69 SAB Photography (@sabphotos69) reported from Dudley, England

    @TheOldDear @O2 @EnglandRugby You’d think it would be easy to provide a service considering they charge me……….. wait for it £67 a month. I get no signal at all most of the time. Yet apparently engineers are working on it.

  • PongoVilla PongoVilla (@PongoVilla) reported from Birmingham, England

    Why has #o2 gone crap since they merged with #Virgin time to move @o2

  • sabphotos69 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.

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

    @O2 Called to complain about poor network coverage where I live and work. Battery died whilst waiting on hold forever.

  • 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?

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

    How poor is the coverage from @virgin mobile? Since the merger with @O2 the mobile coverage is appalling. Massive price increase on all plans/ packages yet the network service is worse than ever

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

    @O2 You’re having a laugh !! Can’t get a decent signal at home - let alone elsewhere.

  • 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.

  • ReissOmari Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Hi, please could you help me with a online store order?

  • 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.

  • ReissOmari Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Priority down!!!!!

  • ChrisJSharratt_ ChrisJSharratt_ (@ChrisJSharratt_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I ordered a phone on the train today and only found out you need ID after. I have a copy on my phone, you can check with my work and I will be getting rid of this phone in an hour!!!!!! What ******** am I meant to do?!!!!!

  • 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.

  • frankunbeans Nick Ions (@frankunbeans) reported

    @O2 I was in Blackpool yesterday and both my wife and me had rubbish coverage on your network. Even though it was showing 4G and a signal, struggled to make calls and use data. I have an iPhone and my wife had a galaxy. May be worth looking into?

  • bri0142 bri0142 (@bri0142) reported

    @O2 I can send but can't receive texts since my number was transferred over to you. When are you going to fix it? I'm still within the 2 weeks cooling off period

  • Ram08671320 Ram (@Ram08671320) reported

    @O2 No, it had picked up the local network called “Movistar” but no data available for 3G/4G. Is there a setting that needs to be change for the data? #O2

  • mrspatelteaches Reena Patel (@mrspatelteaches) reported

    @O2 This has all been checked and I was due a phone call back which never happened. Instead I had to chase you. It’s not a network issue you yourselves have told me all recently new customers are facing this problem and you are working on it. 6 days in and you’ve not fixed it?

  • Pennie_J_H TuppenceHapenny 💙 (@Pennie_J_H) reported

    @O2 what is going on with your service? Changed phones on Saturday but have had no calls or mobile data since yesterday lunchtime. No response on your chat service and can’t call customer services.

  • FlickT Maureen (@FlickT) reported

    Is anyone else still having a problem with incoming and outgoing calls?! It’s been five days now it’s getting a bit beyond a joke @O2 I’ve done everything from resetting the entire phone to turning my phone on and off again to taking the sim out and putting it back in

  • ajsfounded71 Stumpy71 (@ajsfounded71) reported

    Still can’t get any WiFi in the back of the lower Holte on a match day @O2 @AVFCOfficial and the less said about the PA not working either the better. Sort it out #AVFC

  • thcbillybutcher Billy Butcher (@thcbillybutcher) reported

    @O2 Phone gets a crease down it after a few times that makes it look crap Get a Xperia 1 mark 3

  • AndrewLeggate Andrew Leggate (@AndrewLeggate) reported

    @O2 experiencing extremely slow phone data since yesterday, despite it showing I have 4G. Pages either load slowly or don’t load at all

  • Cotterill1Uk Neil Cotterill (@Cotterill1Uk) reported

    @O2. I'm at a festival this weekend. All the others in my group have full data signal and phone signal so can you please tell me why I've had zero in either all weekend. I thought you promoted great coverage but clearly not. You lie in your contract so can I get out of it.
