  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • TheCakeSpa The Cake Spa (@TheCakeSpa) reported from Lichfield, England

    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!

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

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

  • 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.

  • _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!

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • John10649040 John (@John10649040) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 when are you going to fix the masts around Birmingham ( B11 ) as I’m sick of not bloody signal / data . £25 I think I’m do a refund !

  • 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

  • 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?!!!!!

  • John10649040 John (@John10649040) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 @jimswanstonlive That crap answer does not improve your **** network . How about Birmingham B12 again utter Shite signal ! Guess what I know the local mast is down but it has been ever since I have been with you !

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

    @O2 Priority down!!!!!

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

    @O2 9 hours after you reported it fixed (again). O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

  • 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.

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

    @o2. Like clockwork every week O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Sorry, a phone mast close to you isn't working as well as we would expect Our engineers are carrying out some checks to investigate issues in this area...

  • 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

  • amholmes1993 Anne-Marie Holmes (@amholmes1993) reported

    @O2 never had such unhelpful service in the 18 years of being with you. Today at the Trafford centre o2 shop wanted to upgrade my phone and the general attitude was it was too much work and not enough time..1 hour and 40 mins before close. Ended up with no upgrade and walking out

  • FullSen70316301 FullSend (@FullSen70316301) reported

    @jadefinnie @O2 You must be stupid then

  • CBrackenArtist Catherine Bracken (@CBrackenArtist) reported

    @O2 My 02 network is down. I've missed important calls. Please can you tell me why I can't make or receive calls.

  • firsthurdle First Hurdle 🏊🏼‍♀️🚴🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️ (@firsthurdle) reported

    @Soj666 @O2 How is that customer service? Sorry we’ll ensure it doesn’t happen again when it has already happened twice. Terrible.

  • clairew930 Claire Louise (@clairew930) reported

    @O2 hey guys, are the latest iPhones locked to o2? I know you can get phones unlocked but wondering if they are locked to a network in the first place

  • johnyev 🇬🇧 Sir Non Chorley. No vax passports (@johnyev) reported

    @O2 I’m busy for the next couple of hours but this is still ongoing and to be honest it’s unacceptable. Never had a problem importing a number between networks before usually takes an hour on the day specified , this is almost 2 days!

  • vania_keely ..!!! (@vania_keely) reported

    @O2 2 days and this still hasn't been solved. Im in the process of talking to agents on Facebook and here and responses take hours if not days. Why is this taking so long. I may just cancel altogether now

  • FullSen70316301 FullSend (@FullSen70316301) reported

    @O2 **** company they owe me money and keep telling me lies and then telling stupid dumb Info that don’t make sense

  • Bubbalou84 ✨Bubbalou✨ (@Bubbalou84) reported

    @O2 hi I booked the wrong ticket, please can you help me with changing it??

  • NickHathaway90 Nick Hathaway (@NickHathaway90) reported

    @O2 Nice to know your highest point of contact is leading the way in poor standards. 3 weeks with no response. Your own complaints code refers to 5 working days. @LutzSchueler
