    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!

  • 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! 😎

  • SCDave86 Dave T (@SCDave86) reported

    @O2 I've been in touch, of course it took them more than the 48 hours you have to cancel payment for them to get back to me with proof of the "screen burn". A quick look at trustpilot and your own community forums shows this is a blatant SCAM. Not chuffed.

  • PhilipJWithers Philip John Withers (@PhilipJWithers) reported

    Hi @O2 I got a new sim, but I cannot log in to my account via the app to top-up, and the top-up does not work over the phone or via the website. Looking through forums', you need to reset my account for me to get onto the app. Can you please help?

  • las42479 Lorna Smith (@las42479) reported

    @O2 I’ve just upgraded to an iPhone 13 which I’ve set up with no problems. The box included a new SIM card, do I have to use the new one or carry on with my old SIM card? Also how do I enable 5G?

    @AFC_GLEN @O2 No idea them I'm afraid, never had one

  • isaacellard_ Isaac (@isaacellard_) reported

    @O2 Mobile signal in Peterborough has been terrible for about a month now, service status says 'Sorry, a phone mast close to you isn't working as well as we would expect.' How has this not been fixed yet? Got 90GB data plan and can't use a single bit!

    @O2 Hi there, your network checker says its completely fine but I can assure you it isn't. The representative in the o2 store said she had received a number of complaints herself from family and friends.
