    @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 👏 🙄

  • 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.

  • matthew_74 Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @O2 Hi, I completely appreciate the guidance there but, no, it doesn't. When I got through three weeks ago, your colleague was going to escalate my query. I never got the promised call back, hence me trying more recently.

  • ellenkenty ellen (@ellenkenty) reported from Lichfield, England

    @O2 hiya, are you having service issues at all? i’m unable to get any signal and haven’t been able to for nearly half an hour???

    @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..

  • longhairdsgtmaj Betsy Snow (@longhairdsgtmaj) reported from Wombourne, England

  • SophieMDrake Sophie Drake (@SophieMDrake) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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!

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @O2 @virginmedia Further to this, he has now told me that as I get a £15/month discount for my 1st 6 months with O2, I need to cancel that and pay full price in order to get the extra #Volt speed boost with VM

  • matthew_74 Matthew Sparks (@matthew_74) reported from West Bromwich, England

    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?

  • MrTegSingh Teg Singh (@MrTegSingh) reported from Wolverhampton, England

  • AnneBaines1 Anne Baines 💙💙💙💙💙💙 (@AnneBaines1) reported from Hagley, England

  • Dedicated_Mole Gertrude Englebert 🇪🇺 (@Dedicated_Mole) reported from Burntwood, England

    @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??

  • RampziieTweets Dad (@RampziieTweets) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @TheO2 @O2 can you sort your network in Walsall, Birmingham. I put a complaint in at the beginning of the year and it’s STILL unbearable

  • GoGishiGoGo Gish Abeyratne (@GoGishiGoGo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @O2 Device is damaged. Your website and app are as clear as mud about repairs and replacements. I'm on hold waiting for an advisor to be available (20 minutes elapsed). Can you help me out?

  • Lysander_16 Lysander 🦆 (@Lysander_16) reported from Wednesfield, England

    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?

  • kristen_brenes Kristen Brenes (@kristen_brenes) reported

    See my @O2 account information. We had been on the phone with customer support in that store for literal hours. Nothing could be done and they said I would have to wait for a response, as a complaint was filed from the store I was currently in.

  • ClaireyCribs Claire Case (@ClaireyCribs) reported

    @O2 Hi, please can you reply to my DM? It's 2 weeks since I ordered a SIM now, it's still not here so I can't use it / activate it / anything. "Tracking" just says dispatched and it usually comes next day!!! 🤯 Not sure if I should just cancel and start again at this point?

  • craig_drake craig 🟨🟥 (@craig_drake) reported

    @bluegaschris @FrazAnders @O2 Is it about their network lies? Where it says you have 5 bars of 4G+ but in reality the Internet doesn't work at all? And when you check the mast is broken or they are unusually busy.

  • Tytler_H Tytler 🌸 #justice4julian (@Tytler_H) reported

    @O2 I have had zero data for most of the day - 3G, 4G or 5G - it looks like many people have had this issue recently. What is going on?

  • HarveyDecor Lee Harvey (@HarveyDecor) reported

    @boozyp @O2 Bullshit lies about mast issues. They tell us the same in Wrexham.

  • kristen_brenes Kristen Brenes (@kristen_brenes) reported

    I literally never use my Twitter account, but I feel like I have to let other people know about the legit god AWFUL customer service from @O2 I opened a new contract with them at the end of October, and it has been nothing but an absolute

  • C40Ke ✩ 𝕜ꫀ𝕣𝕣ꪗ ✩ (@C40Ke) reported

    @O2 @GoodThingsFdn @virginmedia Wish I’d know Virgin had taken over o2 explains the **** customer service I’m not paying for my device until you replace it DD cancelled…

  • jolaurenx JO ♡ (@jolaurenx) reported

    When I tell you @O2 are the WORST network I’m not exaggerating!! The incompetence of the staff is next level.. absolutely fuming 😡

  • 23Newms Alex Newman (@23Newms) reported

    I've been a customer of @O2 for 2 decades, never once owned an iPhone, but yet their "Handpicked" deal for me was an iPhone 14. 🙄. Just admit you're forced to promote those phones and stop being knobs.

  • Davepaulus85 PD (@Davepaulus85) reported

    @O2 how can I cancel my order with you lot. My new phone is nowhere to be seen, and the whole joining process has been a farce. Anyone thinking of joining O2…. DONT!! Avoid avoid avoid.
