  • 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.

  • PeteVillan1981 Carpy Villan™️ (@PeteVillan1981) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @gazswain @O2 O2 🤝 Virgin - dog **** mobile networks

  • 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.

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

    @O2 working like clockwork? It goes faulty every week. "O2 Network Update: Stratford Rd, Shirley, Solihull B90 4AJ, UK Looks like a nearby phone mast isn’t working as it should, sorry.

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • Cheadle Hooty McOwlface (@Cheadle) reported from Birmingham, England

    @whatphilsaid @O2 It’s horrendous. Who would have thought the network could actually get worse as technology improves

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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!!

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

    @O2 Priority down!!!!!

  • _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!

  • charlll18x Charlotte (@charlll18x) reported from Dudley, England

    Dunno what’s worse your “priority” or signal @O2

  • 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...

  • 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 !

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

    @O2 why does the local B90 4AJ mast go faulty EVERY week. 6 weeks in a row now, we get no service until it is repaired. You need better repair engineers as their repairs do not even last a week!!!

    @SkyHelpTeam It’s a mobile network issue as I explained above as @o2 have advised! That’s a total now of 7 days without being able to use our data which I am paying for!!

  • paulhayward200 Paul (@paulhayward200) reported

    @O2 How can O2 justify putting their prices up when their network is so rubbish and the staff are so incompetent ? I would not mind if they invested in the network But they don't. Its still as rubbish as it was 6 months ago.😡😡😡😡🤬

  • yilank yilank™ (@yilank) reported

    @O2 O2 who never picks up the phone when it's my problem, O2 is calling me shamelessly to ofer me. What kind of disgrace is this O2 ( last christmas customer servis was drunk, when they picked up phone )

  • kingracing Ian King (@kingracing) reported

    @O2 first time with your company after many years of Vodafone business and support. Need to submit my VAT bill invoices this afternoon latest but for some reason those on `My O2' are NOT VAT invoices. Requested them from the Indian Call centre - not possible.

  • ICrazy1RU2 June Shannon (@ICrazy1RU2) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia @o2, spoke to one team member who cancelled my contract, at least I think he did as I had the same conversation last summer and payments have still been coming out of my bank! Transferred to "customer service" who strangely could not hear me to deal with my complaint 🤔

  • ICrazy1RU2 June Shannon (@ICrazy1RU2) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia @02 #awful called to cancel SIM last summer and Dad's been continually taken, tried to speak to customer service and I'm certain they were pretending they could not hear me! 😡

  • imragurt Jim Reynolds (@imragurt) reported

    @O2 I was a victim of ID fraud back in December. This was reported immediately to O2 and the accounts were closed on 18-12-21. It is now the 12-04-22 and the defaults are still appearing on my credit file. I’m moving house and can’t get a mortgage because of this. Please help.

  • ICrazy1RU2 June Shannon (@ICrazy1RU2) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia @o2 #BadCustomerService Has anyone else experienced awful customer service from O2?

  • ICrazy1RU2 June Shannon (@ICrazy1RU2) reported

    @O2 #awful reading other messages I can see that my bad experience with O2 is not an isolated incident. Long wait, pretend not to hear so they can hang up without dealing with complaint.

  • AlisinoAuthor Alison Altvandfik (@AlisinoAuthor) reported

    @O2 I need help deactivating an old number but haven't had a reply to DM yet. Who should I speak to?
