    @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 !

  • 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.

  • 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

    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?

  • _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!

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

    @O2 Priority down!!!!!

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!!

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?!!!!!

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!

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

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

  • BethanieJade Bethanie 🦋 (@BethanieJade) reported

    Been back and forward to @O2 since April about the terrible 4G coverage that literally doesn’t work (even since having a new sim card) and all they do is repeat the same thing and offer credit for the signal that I can’t use 🤌

  • rhianna_joseph Rhianna Joseph #PrayForDemi ❤️ (@rhianna_joseph) reported

    @Ian1Martin @O2 @Ian1Martin you don’t need your DOB for the PAC request on O2. Maybe the PAC code system is down on pay and go. Maybe try again tomorrow.

  • Leecampbelluk My Arse (@Leecampbelluk) reported

    @c17yb8b3 @O2 I'm with them apart from charging me 150 quid for 150 Meg of data in Turkey they've been OK. Though they are 1 step away from losing a customer of around 20 years if they try that stunt again!

  • ekwaddell Emma Waddell (@ekwaddell) reported

    Anyone else just despair of @o2 and @virginmedia. customer service. Was in a good mood when I contacted o2 with a simple question - 5 departments later, with me getting angrier at every one, they hung up on me.

  • SmugFaceKevin Kevin (@SmugFaceKevin) reported

    @O2 I DM’d you 6hrs ago (with screenshots from Twitter for context). Still no response. Your service is hugely disappointing. I presume you’re so busy because every other client is getting the same shoddy service and complaining.

  • DIVINEFXMININE bonnie (@DIVINEFXMININE) reported

    @O2 hi, my phone bill was supposed to come out today but the payment still hasn’t been taken? i’ve had a direct debit set up to come out on the 21st each month for a long time now and it’s never done this before. enough money in the account, usually comes out around 3am.

  • Levi_Fitton Levi Fitton (@Levi_Fitton) reported

    @O2 what the hell is going on in the BL2 6 area .. its been all month the service has been shocking. I can't access Internet make calls or contact an agent on the online chat even when on WiFi..

  • leehotmess Lee Montgomery (@leehotmess) reported

    @O2 DM still not resolved. Advised me the sim was reactivated yesterday. I had signal for about 5 minutes then off again. And the new SIM has not arrived yet. This is day 4. Why is this not resolved??

  • KRZYSZTOF_UK Krzysztof (@KRZYSZTOF_UK) reported

    @O2 Need to cancel the second number then.

  • Ian1Martin Ian (@Ian1Martin) reported

    @rhianna_joseph @O2 I’ve on reading network provider it I should including my DOB and PAC but haven’t worked
