    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!

    @O2 I’m unable to remember my security question answer in order to change my password to view my a/c the system won’t accent any answers to other questions & customer care is unobtainable. It’s rubbish & unhelpful. I feel very cross!!!😡

    Hi @O2 I've tried to call about a technical problem (more a frustration) regarding voicemail. Called a couple of times last week, where messages advises you were busy. Now the message says, 'Use the website' and then hangs up. Any suggestions?

    @O2 I have today received another letter telling me the phone is blocked. I don’t have an O2 phone. I have never had an O2 phone. I don’t owe any money. I know you are looking at it but surely you can put a block on correspondence while you do?

    @wolvesclaire @O2 Never been so angry been on the phone since 8.30 cut off 3 times and been transferred to so many different departments. 😡😡😡😡

    Hey @O2 is there a actually a mast issue in Wolverhampton? As I've been receiving little to no Internet while I'm at work (WV10) It's been about 2 weeks. I'm not the only one either. Checked your service status and says there's a mast issue but it hasn't been fixed. Any ideas?

    @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!

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

    Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    Remember when @ThreeUK public shamed @O2 for being down. Pot Kettle..

  • 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.

    Signals dog **** today lads, lasses, (other) @O2

  • 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

  • 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)

    @O2 I think my mom had the same text the other day. So had to help her by marking as spam and blocking it.

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

  • 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.

    @rachaelxspragg @O2 My update was via Email - BECAUSE I HAVEN’T SIGNAL SINCE MARCH 3RD 😂

  • 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 👏 🙄

    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.

  • damienquirk
    Damien Quirk 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇮🇪🇺🇦 (@damienquirk) reported

    @DelBoy80s @EnglandRugby @O2 He got dropped by Racing. I've watched this kid since he burst in the scene ans was overhyped on the back of 2 great tries in second tier comps. He is a one trick pony, that'll work at Prem level but not intl. Fundamentally lacks work rate on and off the ball, poor aerially 1/2

  • HarrietSergeant
    Harriet Sergeant (@HarrietSergeant) reported

    .What’s happened @O2? Since merging with Virgin, topping up data has gone from two taps to a Kafkaesque ordeal. App requires an email that never arrives. Phone numbers unrecognised. Anyone found a workaround - carrier pigeon perhaps?

  • Demodya
    Grumpy No Mates (GR/UK) (@Demodya) reported

    Hey @o2, specifically #o2priority when you do a presale, app sends me to #Ticketmaster. When I'm there Ticketmaster sends me back to the Priority app to get tickets. I mean talk about keeping an idiot busy here but this does not get me tickets to BICEP. FML

  • LilHay
    Hayley Laura (@LilHay) reported

    Entering 4th day or waiting for @O2 to sort the urgent issue I have. Their unhelpful team message me at 7pm last night asking for the code so they can access my account…… the code was sent to them 9AM yday morning. Sums them up. Useless and a disgrace

    @LilHay @O2 @DarkSabers2013 They are shocking. Everything has gone downhill with them service and signal now so bad it’s beyond belief
