  • 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

  • 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

  • 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. 🙄

  • 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 I’ve not been on your books for 6 or so years, so it’s either a scam or your records are quite out of date.

  • 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

    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 😂

  • 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

  • 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!!!

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • 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! 😎

  • 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?

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

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

  • 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

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

    Hey @O2 I'm a pay as you go customer and I'm having access issues to MyO2 app. I have called customer services 6-7 times already & even requested callbacks and every time I was assured that the issue was resolved. Spoiler alert ... it isn't! Is it time for me to change company?

  • ItsAmyTx ItsAmyTx (@ItsAmyTx) reported

  • AdzCrawford2003 Adam Crawford (@AdzCrawford2003) reported

    @O2 Signal is crap in the Eurotunnel. Only 3G. What’s going on?

  • tashajade13 tasha jade (@tashajade13) reported

    @O2 what a load of ****... cancelled my contract with no warning. Migrated it to a pay as you go sim... and now almost 4 and a half hours on live chat, you have left me with no live phone number to call you on.. and still nobody is able to get this resolved!!! ******* joke!

  • omicdaz Daz Midgley (@omicdaz) reported from Bradford, England

    Whats the Worst company and customer service you’ve ever dealt with or had dealings with? I’ll start with @O2 and @DHLParcelUK

  • ardjohn21 John Kelly (@ardjohn21) reported

    @omicdaz @O2 @DHLParcelUK Persistence and never lose your temper. Forthright yes but once you lose the plot tempting as it is they have the upper hand. I would pursue the compensation route using their complaints procedure and if no dice go to OFCOM.

  • ardjohn21 John Kelly (@ardjohn21) reported

    @omicdaz @O2 @DHLParcelUK Document it all, give them a chance to respond which they have to be given the opportunity to do. If a delay in response or you are not happy with outcome OFCOM will take it on. If you need any help I'm happy to be of service.

  • r_ic_k_tweets Rick (@r_ic_k_tweets) reported

    @O2 Hi, I'm trying to register for your O2 Community forums but I appear to be stuck in a Registration / Sign In loop and can't get anywhere, not sure if something is up with the website or my account. Can someone help? Thanks.
