    @O2 It’s having to be escalated due to a back office technical fault, issue on My O2 and the account behind the scenes, so I’m without data when out of the house for up to 10 days. Not ideal really!

    @O2 I've just tried this, they've said they've sent me a text with a code but I don't have any service to receive the text. So now I'm stuck..

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 After spending 6 hours trying to get hold of customer services, I ended up driving (and paying for parking) to go to one of your shops to get a sim swap. This apparently the only to get service working. Not the best of starts.

  • M5Mahmud
    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.

    @DelBoy80s @EnglandRugby @O2 And he makes poor decisions in defence. Ultimately we will never agree on this but I suspect you wouldn't have an issue if he played for any other team.

    @O2 Via dd and as I said to your customer service rep I don't have the ability to pay twice and that massive unpaid sign in all my lines/devices is now agrovating me why do you not just pur processing on the app if that is the case

    The Music Man (@DavidJa51216245) reported

    @O2 No. It serously affected my work so i went with another provider. Id been with you and your previous incarnations for 30 years! Do you rememember Genie? Thats how you started and i was with you since then and so the service i received from you and sending balifs is disgusting

    Jack Fernley (@itsjackfernley) reported

    @O2 my SIM has been deactivated early before my replacement arrived. I was told I’d keep service until I inserted the new SIM, but I now have no signal at all and cannot call support. Please urgently reactivate my old SIM

    I’ve been on the phone to @O2 for the past hour just trying to upgrade my phone. Diabolical service… not even sure this is a person I’m talking to or a bot.
