  • ilovefluffy 🎃👻💀🙀🧟‍♂️ #booToYou (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    So to be straight: because @O2 have been terrible for over a year, I can’t refresh my phone until after I get back from my Christmas trip! You’re very VERY quickly losing a customer here and I’ve been with o2 for nearly 15 years.

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    I suspect if I cancelled the three direct debits I pay every month to @O2 they’d find time to get in touch with me. Help with setting up a new phone when their online SIM swap is banjaxed, not so much.

  • _RebeccaJT Rebecca (@_RebeccaJT) reported from Sunderland, England

    @O2 can someone please give me a response to a query, I have had an automated reply in dm which not helpful in anyway. I have tried my o2 app and it doesn’t help. I have also tried ringing o2 just keep getting cut off.

  • DarrenMorgan Darren (@DarrenMorgan) reported from Washington, England

    @BootneckShuffle @O2 @EE Never had a problem with O2 untill I switched my DD date. They're hopeless

  • fredspoon philip (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    Lots of companies doing their bit to help. I got an email from @O2 this morning and how they are helping is allowing people to access the @NHSuk websites without using your data. Whoopy ******* doodle do. I can’t wait it’s like Christmas all over again.

  • RuxanaNargol Ruxana Nargolwala (@RuxanaNargol) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @hellyarrj @O2 Having the same problem. #o2 should deal with this. Totally unacceptable.

  • doc_drops Santa Drops is coming to Toon 🎅🎅 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    You’re rolling out 5G when Newcastle doesn’t even have basic coverage, I have a 50GB contract with you and barely manage to use 2GB a month due to lack of signal/searching for free Wifi @O2

  • petern280 peter nixon (@petern280) reported from Springwell, England

    @O2 is there an issue with the app data counter, mines said unavailable for the last few days

  • ilovefluffy andrew 🎃 (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @2bard @intueldonsquare @northumbriapol You're right in normal circumstances, however my phone signal keeps cutting out while @O2 are upgrading to 5G, last week a man had a seizure in front of me and I was getting repeatedly disconnected from the emergency services while trying to get an ambulance.

  • scottbarron90 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Scott Barron 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@scottbarron90) reported from Brandon, England

    @O2 what a waste of money it is I pay for you're service every month. Another mast issue in my area, no calls or texts all day, I ise this phone for buisness Yet again lost more money through o2 and the rubbish equipment I've never had this issue with any other service provider

  • sheilavictoriaR Sheila Robson (@sheilavictoriaR) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @O2 Im pleased 😊 scammers are awful!

  • doc_drops Spooky Scary Skeledrops🎃🎃🎃 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Your service in NE2 is shocking

  • ilovefluffy Andrew Willis (@ilovefluffy) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    The speeds I’m getting from Sky Fibre Max are appalling too, sometimes I can’t even use it, it’s so awful, like scraping the barrel speeds and connectivity which just isn’t worth it. @O2 to the rescue here though because their 4G tether speeds are usually faster than Sky Fibre.

  • ilovefluffy andrew 🎃 (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I was supposed to get a free upgrade every 12 months but your "problems with supply" last year meant that I didn't get my new phone for over a month after I requested it, so my refresh date is a month later, which pushes it past my annual christmas trip. It's a farce.

  • nossy1996 Gracie (@nossy1996) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @MyUNiDAYS @O2 I am trying to activate the JBL discount but no money seems to get deducted at checkout... plz help, I’m desperate for a new speaker

  • AngieOrrick Angie Orrick (@AngieOrrick) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @O2 you have the worst customer service ever encountered! If I could stop paying you I would! That’s your shop and by telephone

  • headcoverlova Paul Frampton (@headcoverlova) reported from Bearpark, England

    @O2 really bad customer service to offer a free streaming service a lot of families could use right now only for new customers. Other networks offering free services for all customers. Make me think you don’t value loyal customers at all

  • ilovefluffy 🎃👻💀🙀🧟‍♂️ #booToYou (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 so… appalling service, no signal abroad, no signal at home… thought I might try to refresh my phone but it turns out that I can’t because last year there was a delay in getting my phone to me so my usual refresh date in October has been pushed back til November!

  • doc_drops Spooky Scary Skeledrops🎃🎃🎃 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Your coverage in most of Newcastle is shocking, I live in NE2 and the best signal I get is 1 bar of 3G in my iPhone 7

  • engg_rky Raj (@engg_rky) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    As expected @EE never cares about customer relationship and thus had not replied. @VodafoneUK @O2 if you have better options for me with 500 min India calls per month then please contact me I will port my number

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • KConv KConv (@KConv) reported

    Without doubt the worst mobile network in Liverpool is @O2 Beyond useless. Just had 3 different phones in front of me all showing almost full signal on 4g and not one working. Happens all the time and best they suggest is to go onto settings and toggle them. Avoid. #6monthsleft

  • emma87_ ~emma~ (@emma87_) reported

    @Bad_Gamer_Glenn @O2 Ah your wife is abbie, i did speak to her. She left me a voicemail explaining the circumstances but i had to call her back and explain im just a customer too

  • avid__fan sushi (@avid__fan) reported

    @O2 brilliant! I was cut off after 45 mins waiting in a call queue. This after waiting 4 months for my account to be activated. Dismal service.

  • AkshionMan kill bill⚡️ (@AkshionMan) reported

    @MockySmells @O2 i’ve had the same issue. i spoke to o2 customer services and they said it’s an internal issue they’ve got at o2 with current PAC codes and not being able release numbers. they said they’re fixing the issue and will let customers know. could be days :/

  • Waves_CSJB Megan 🦋 (@Waves_CSJB) reported

    @O2 hiya, just wondering if there is any work going on in the londonderry area? Have had next to no signal since yesterday and havent been able to make calls to family members due to it

  • CAS84Teach Cheryl Saunders (@CAS84Teach) reported

    @O2 once again on hold. 56 minutes earlier, 34 minutes yesterday and who knows how many other minutes wasted while I try to get you to solve my bill issue. Have also tried your online chat service with no success - sort it out! Awful service!

  • Waves_CSJB Megan 🦋 (@Waves_CSJB) reported

    @O2 Thank you! I just wanted to check if there was a phone mast down which there is or if it was just mine & my mums phones playing up, hoping it gets sorted soon 🤞🏻

  • DaveThompson78 David Thompson (@DaveThompson78) reported

    @O2 Really unhappy with your recycle service. And so are many others by the looks of it. This needs investigating.

  • kimbaslase Kim Slase (@kimbaslase) reported

    @O2 your customer service line HANGS UP on the caller once it’s confirmed they are calling about issues with topping up. Virtual assistant provides no info besides that number. How can I speak to a human?

  • lewis_hardwick Lewis Hardwick (@lewis_hardwick) reported

    Hi @O2! Can I buy a SIM only plan online and get an eSIM same day? Don't need a physical SIM and need to get off my current network ASAP...
