    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

  • 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

  • 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?

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 I’ve not been on your books for 6 or so years, so it’s either a scam or your records are quite out of date.

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

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

  • 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 😂

  • 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

  • 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. 🙄

  • 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

  • SpiralSkies Jen (@SpiralSkies) reported from Ipswich District, England

    OMG @O2 are doing work nearby so no 4G in the office. Had to sign a form last week to say we wouldn’t use the office internet either, other than for professional stuff. Work‘s awful when there’s only, well, work to focus on. It’s like the olden days 😳

  • 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

  • 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!

    @O2 Yea thanks. That's as useful as a chocolate fireguard. Sort out your signal coverage in Perth. It's not an isolated incident. Every time I visit signal is barely usable to connect...

  • daiesmc MJC (@daiesmc) reported

    Terrible experience with @SkyUK trying to get a new phone today. No attempt from customer services to help at all. Went to @O2 and they sorted me out in 10 minutes with a much better experience.

  • nicholasyee12 nicholas yee (@nicholasyee12) reported

    @O2 Wow how bad is 02 they still discriminate against me this is my I am not paying my bill

  • emilyyymayy Emily Hayes (@emilyyymayy) reported

    @O2 I haven’t had service since midday today, the website says there’s a mast down in SR6 area. Can I claim money back? I have missed important calls😭

  • PendeenB PendeenBiker 〓〓 (@PendeenB) reported

    @O2 despite the wonders of modern technology I can send money to an Airbnb host in the Ukraine, but I can't get a phone call because you wankers can't fix the local mast serving most of Pendeen for a fortnight now, and say you'll update us on the 18th march. Tossers

  • johnemangan1 John mangan (@johnemangan1) reported

    @O2 , I had a message saying we have turned off 4G, I have no signal at all, the coverage checker says no issues, I have messaged through My o2 no response

  • aleccare Alec Care (@aleccare) reported

    @O2 I have spent over 90 minutes across 3 calls talking to 5 different people and still can't get my account activated. (the last person just hung up) what can I do to get this sorted if your phone lines can't help me?

  • Taniyaaktar8 T (@Taniyaaktar8) reported

    @O2 Have the worst customer service ever. My phone just got stolen and their customer service team are of no help at all. Ffs **** like this only happens to me :(

  • hanger18 David Harries (@hanger18) reported

    @andy_simpleton @EE @O2 I changed from ee to O2 a few weeks ago. Working great here in Spain and Portugal with no problems. Lol is still with ee because she has £30 credit and nothing but trouble over here. 30 minute phone call still hasn't sorted problem.

  • Tasha_Griffith_ Natasha Griffith (@Tasha_Griffith_) reported

    @O2 how terrible is it the fact you can’t get into contact with anyone let alone an actual human about your bills and how ridiculous and incorrect the charges to your phone bill are
