    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?

  • 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!

  • 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. 🙄

  • 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!!!

  • 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

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

    @o2 you are CRAP

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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 😂

  • ashleighlast AL (@ashleighlast) reported from Ipswich District, England

    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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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! 😎

  • 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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Jugdar013 Kelsey (@Jugdar013) reported

    @O2 It's only popular because you limited it SO much! I've completely missed out during May despite my best effort!! It would be better if you didn't sell your contracts with these so called 'extras' as they are a big let down.

  • shots_da DA_shots (@shots_da) reported

    @O2 I have had no signal all day - what’s going on???

  • ddbelle47 David Walker (@ddbelle47) reported

    @O2 Yes, Calls & texts are ok, but the issue must be more than the network being busy, as there are not that many people in these coastal resorts at present. It’s not BH yet and I’ve had 4 days with virtually no Internet. I wish to make a complaint 🤨

  • farleyamanda Farley (@farleyamanda) reported

    @O2 please can you explain why I have been sent a bill for a contract that was cancelled within 14 day cooling off period. And why my contract change to PAYG was not completed for over 2 months and why your customer services refuses to resolve the issue @UKConsumerRight @Ofcom

  • farleyamanda Farley (@farleyamanda) reported

    @BBCWatchdog @Ofcom O2 has shown an inability to deal with a simple contract change. I've been charged twice now for 2 services despite contacting @o2 for over a month before the switch. I've spent hours on phone to customer services & either been hung up on or had no follow up

  • jackied1975 Jackie Davis (@jackied1975) reported

    @O2 Hi, I am trying to recycle my old Samsung and it won't let me click to say I have removed my Google account tried 2 phones and laptop. Please help. :)

  • Rob06249418 Rob (@Rob06249418) reported

    @O2 why is your service so bad nowadays? I swear you guys were the best back in the day. Now like 50% of the time I can only get 3G

  • bethjanehoward Beth 🌵 (@bethjanehoward) reported

    @O2 I am having an issue with an order I have placed and I can’t get in contact with anyone who will help me. The customer service line just isn’t helping.

  • farleyamanda Farley (@farleyamanda) reported

    @O2 Done. For details listen to any of the calls you recorded. You've a lot to chose from. I just rang your customer services at 18:17 where spent 33 mins trying to follow up before I was hung up on without warning. Wasn't rude, only asked why issue hadn't been followed up on @Ofcom

  • HayleyC1983 Hayley Betts (@HayleyC1983) reported

    @O2 Incompetent customer service that’s what. Is someone going to contact me to resolve my complaint?
