    @O2 your customer service is appalling. You should be ashamed.

  • scoobyhugh8 Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I’m in Newcastle for the weekend and could hardly get a service, keeping jumping from 1 bar on 5G onto 3G, couldn’t get into social media or online due to it buffering. What a waste of time moving to you from EE

  • ScottSChristie Scott Christie (@ScottSChristie) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Is there an issue with signal in NE29 just now? Mine has been pretty bad for a couple of weeks now. Many Thanks.

  • TCHL Tim Luckhurst (@TCHL) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 Appalling customer service. An apology is required.

  • LuckyTony72 Lucky Tony (@LuckyTony72) reported from Hebburn, England

    @O2 Got a call bar today. Absolutely shoddy customer service. Also I've waited a minimum of 20 minutes to speak to your alleged customer service agents who appear to be utterly inept to make a simple change.

  • Richard_Y1 Richard (@Richard_Y1) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2, any particular reason why signal for mobile data is so poor/pretty much non-existent in the NE30 area?

  • LuckyTony72 🎃 🎃 Lucky Tony 🎃 🎃 (@LuckyTony72) reported from Hebburn, England

    @O2 asked for a SIMPLE change to be made in August and 5 phonecalls later you still can't get it right! Customer service is a joke!!!

  • scoobyhugh8 Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 how can your service be so poor in a city centre.

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I need to cancel 2 expired phone contracts on my account before my new o2 phone contracts become active but can't get to use the contact o2 online chat. Can you sort this for me?

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

  • DarranBlackshaw Darran Blackshaw (@DarranBlackshaw) reported from Seaton Valley, England

    @O2 rang for help and answering machine says ring back in 24hrs and hangs up -really ??

  • SophieBur492 Sophie burlinson (@SophieBur492) reported from Sunderland, England

    For an iPhone 12 Pro meant to be 5G since November I’ve had this phone. Have i got any signs? Absolutely not. It’s now 3G @O2 bad crack.

    Restarted the phone, did reset of network nothing. I can't do any work with 2FA authorization without receiving pin nos. Tried sending from other phones not receiving. Can send text out but can't receive so how ?? @O2

  • SarahFozmeister sarah foster (@SarahFozmeister) reported

    @O2 worst customer service I’ve EVER known! day 4 without signal, 4g or a phone number after a number port from 3 to 02. Simple task too much it seems. Sick of calling and being told 24 hours and turn my phone on and off. I have no patience left and no useable phone either

  • BromptonBumbleB 😷 Bumble B the legend! 😷 (@BromptonBumbleB) reported

    Out here #overseas in #Portugal and no #o2 roaming data even AFTER I went to local UK @O2 shop and they checked I had international roaming on my contact before coming out. 5 days voice ✅, txt ✅ but no data 📵. Signal comes up as 3G. @O2

  • SWstudent78 mel (@SWstudent78) reported

    @O2 do you really expect me to believe the updates regarding a phone mast being down in my area now? Waiting for permission to close a parking space? I've had no service for 7 months now! @tescomobile I really think you should be questioning these updates at this point

  • chloe58834923 chloe (@chloe58834923) reported

    @O2 why is it so ridiculously hard to send texts/data tonight???? Sort it out a week to do ‘maintenance’ is ridiculous. Leaving customers unable to use phones. Hope you’ll at least be knocking something off bills given all the trouble
