    @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 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 just been in to the @O2 store to get a new sim, fantastic service in store, however, I was shocked to find my contract has gone up £6 since October? How does that work??

    @O2 have still not processed a refund from March/April (despite being promised at the time I wouldn’t even be overcharged and my account had already been credited) Two weeks ago I was told payment would be with me in 5 days but I’m chasing ONCE AGAIN Atrocious customer service

    @O2 my new phone arrived a week ago today on refresh but the network is still on my old phone. I have removed sim and switched on and off. How do I get the network to switch to my new phone??

  • ChrisSammons_
    Chris Sammons (@ChrisSammons_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 I appreciate theres obviously a serious issue, I’ve never known signal to be down for so long at one time. There needs to be a conversation at some stage regarding a substantial reimbursement on this months tariff, because to not have any signal whatsoever for this long is a pain

    anyone else I know have @O2 as a mobile phone network? I may as well not have a phone it’s straight up awful coverage

  • 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.

    @FHawksworth @O2 I know what you mean, these consultations can go either way, depending on who you get. And I have had weird issues with Vodafone and EE not connecting, no idea why, some calls go straight to voicemail despite the phone being charged and in range. Technology inconsistency sucks!

    @GaryGoodson18 @O2 If you’re facing any issue, please feel free to send me a private message first. I was also experiencing some specific service problems with O2, especially frequent login issues with the Signals app. However, I found a solution through the official O2 Facebook group, where highly

    PB1982 (@pb1982) reported

    After 20 days and multiple calls to o2, I’ve decided to request a refund and return my order. It’s amazing how quick they work to get you off the phone and take zero accountability for the poor customer service and experience…‘£50 compensation and we’ll close your complaint’ @o2

  • JoeGibbs2
    Joe Gibbs (@JoeGibbs2) reported

    One week with @O2 and still no service on my phone. Now been told I gotta wait upto 7 days for the issue to be sorted. Very poor . Back to three I think #disappointing

    @O2 why is the reception to abysmal in Norwich? And by ‘abysmal’ I mean non existent. Worst decision ever to renew my contract with you.

    Hey @O2, aren’t you supposed to be like one of the biggest network providers in the UK? If yes, why is being in Colchester like being in the dark ages? Your signal is ****.

  • lilyryan
    Lily Ryan (@lilyryan) reported

    @O2 Due to the recent price increase, I’ve decided to move to another provider. I’m unable to find an option in the app to cancel my SIM. I already have a PAC code to keep my number and I’m now out of contract—would that be sufficient to proceed?

    Claire Kennard (@clairelkennard) reported

    @O2 Thanks- after 3 LONG phone calls with your customer service agents I think it’s almost sorted… the lady I spoke to this evening was exceptional, she was so helpful. Still need to speak to fraud team tomorrow and want to make sure this can’t happen again!

    Every single month I have trouble accessing the my o2 app, since it’s became virgin media! Absolute joke can never pay my bill in time because of it, doesn’t let me sign in even though the details are correct!! Shouldn’t have to phone up every month to sort it! @O2 @virginmedia
