    As if @O2 have said the reason my 4G is shockingly slow and non existent majority of the time is down to thickness of the walls or too many people around me!!?? Imagine being with a company for 12 years and getting that **** service? Time to leave.. #poorservice

  • RozBaldwin Roselyn Baldwin (@RozBaldwin) reported from Sudbury, England

    Now furious @O2 customer service said they would call me at 6pm as they did not want to miss me !! Funny but by uk time that was an hour ago ! #furious #socalledbestcustomerservice ! #o2

  • MissClaireW CLAIRE WALMSLEY (@MissClaireW) reported from Halstead, England

    @O2 Yeh you keep replying to people with this, & yet the link you sent either directs back to social media, or continues the issue of login problems... so... ?? @virginmedia @O2

  • ColletteLynn_ ¢σℓℓєттє ℓуηη мσσяє♥ (@ColletteLynn_) reported from Great Horkesley, England

    Why am I still paying full price for my tariff when the mast is down in my area and has been for a while now? I can’t access my network properly so why should I still pay? @O2 sort it out please!

  • timcutbush Tim Cutbush (@timcutbush) reported from Ipswich District, England

    Oh my word @O2 ‘support’ is shockingly bad. Trying to connect my new Apple Watch to my existing data plan - failing big time. @O2 have no idea whatsoever

  • RozBaldwin Roselyn Baldwin (@RozBaldwin) reported from Sudbury, England

    @O2 Total waste of time just keep getting quoted your on the wrong contract for that !!! As you got your phone at #@CPWTweets ! Fantastic I’m such a happy customer right now ! Not!!!

  • fmorton71 Fiona Morton (@fmorton71) reported from Great Bentley, England

    @o2 you are CRAP

  • m7hompson Matty Thompson (@m7hompson) reported from Ipswich District, England

    What’s the deal @O2 trying to make an insurance claim but been on the phone for 45mins and spoken to 5 different advisors which keep telling me there going to transfer me through, is this something that can’t be down in the #o2 shop?

  • ScrumpyDaniel Daniel Hill (@ScrumpyDaniel) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @NSPh0t0s @ManUtd_BITW @TheO2 @O2 @AXS_UK @TicketmasterUK @seetickets Ticketmaster is by far the worst.... at least for all the Mania events it is! It’s shocking for Axxess and has screwed me over many a time and almost cost me Undertaker VIP

  • MattyCrane Matt Crane (@MattyCrane) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @O2 Understood, for a day or two that would make sense. But service down for over a week with no timescale for resolution as you have said, is pretty poor you must admit. Oh well we continue to pay the bill for a service we can’t use. 🙄

  • AndySoloman Andy Soloman (@AndySoloman) reported from West Bergholt, England

    @O2 your customer services are truly dreadful. What an awful Christmas present we have had.

  • JamesSharp87 James Sharp (@JamesSharp87) reported from Witham, England

    Hello @O2 I’ve accidental damage to the rear of my iPhone 11 Pro Max. Only had the phone 3 months so will it be covered under warranty?

  • RozBaldwin Roselyn Baldwin (@RozBaldwin) reported from Sudbury, England

    Incredibly #disappointed with the service received on @O2 chat this evening think they may need #CustomerService training ! Very standard robotic reply’s maybe it was a robot 😂

  • MissClaireW CLAIRE WALMSLEY (@MissClaireW) reported from Halstead, England

    @O2 any resolution to your app not working, logins just go back to the same email verification page? So many people posting & no answers?

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @O2 so I have 3 accounts with o2 and looking at an upgrade to iPhone 12 in March for 2 of my accounts but it’s cheaper to leave and rejoin or go elsewhere #terrible #noloyality #rubbishdeals

  • Geobadger1 Christopher Chapman (@Geobadger1) reported from Ipswich District, England

    Hi @O2 just had a bizarre call from a call centre thinking I’m still an O2 customer. I’ve not been on your books for 6 or so years, so it’s either a scam or your records are quite out of date.

  • KevinRowley4 Kevin Rowley (@KevinRowley4) reported from Maldon, England

    @O2 for weeks now, Maldon CM96JR no 4 or 5G signal, voice calls virtually impossible at times. What's going on? Thank you

  • lovelylaurajd Laura Davidson (@lovelylaurajd) reported from Colchester, England

    Absolutely love @O2’s recycle service. Upgraded to the new iPhone 11, sent off my old iPhone XS and received £400 into my bank account today! 🙌 That is going straight into the holiday fund! 😎

  • doggett_kieran K (@doggett_kieran) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @O2 so I make an insurance claim, which i pay for monthly and you can't replace it as not in stock, nearly 2 weeks waiting. Poor. I ring today to get told lines are closed, its 11:41 on a Monday. Poor. What have you to say

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @O2 hi there I have just joined o2 when I signed up I gave my pac code but the sim has turned up today and it’s not my old number ... please help

  • terenceclayton7 Terence (@terenceclayton7) reported

    @O2 need to send my phone off to repair but I can't call as that's the issue, can't visit a store and I cannot use your app as it's a maze leading me in circles. Your a telecommunications company who can't even help it's customers 👍

  • RabSned Rab Sneddon (@RabSned) reported

    @O2 It's just a very weak signal whenever I try and use my data but I'm not too sure as to what may be causing that to happen? Everything else is absolutely fine, it's Just the data that's an issue as of now unfortunately
