    @Annabanana8008 @virginmedia @O2 Good luck to you and don't take any sh*t, you should be fully compensated for the absolute inconvenience. We had a little problem with our provider and they where excellent, understood the issue and before we asked they compensated us.

  • TweetterRoss Ross Maisey (@TweetterRoss) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @O2 Struggling with no or little service at home at the moment and it’s becoming very frustrating. I checked the service checker and they comes back as ok. My phone says 1 bar but that doesn’t allow me to use the internet.

  • AdamLee2011 Adam Lee (@AdamLee2011) reported from Newport, Wales

    @O2 Already with o2 for my mobile and they are brilliant. This was for MiFi, someone recommended three but the signal is terrible. Waste of money.

  • Hayeley Hayley (@Hayeley) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @O2 is there an option to setup a direct debit without making a phone call? It used to be set up but for some reason didn't change when I used the Switch service to move banks and I'm fed up of being told I'm behind on a payment. Can I do it via the app? Thanks

  • JdBowns91 Jade Bowns (@JdBowns91) reported from Barry, Wales

    @O2 on the website it says to contact your customer services to change my name and other issues I want to discuss yet the only way I can get through to someone is to say I’ve had fraud occur! All I want to do is speak to someone why is it so hard. Chat is also unavailable

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 There’s delay then there’s rude. Been 92 working days or 128 days since I complained. @o2 are making it deliberately difficult to contact.

  • meribelman Peter Williams (@meribelman) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia I would happily self serve online, via a browser or app, as you incessantly encourage me to do, but when the page says “oops something went wrong, we’re unable to change your package online”, its very frustrating. @O2 will help you soon!

O2 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Lichfield_Barry Barry 🇺🇦 (@Lichfield_Barry) reported

    @janiedee @O2 The advisor gave me some nonsense about Lichfield being a 'busy area' - I then asked if congestion means indoors signal just drops off completely and he couldn't answer. The network coverage checker lies too, says we have full 4G indoors and out.

  • KruRaiUK Kru Rai (@KruRaiUK) reported

    When will you fix your network problems in Canary Wharf and third class customer service @O2 @LutzSchueler

  • warpaint1391 SJ (@warpaint1391) reported

    @O2 been waiting a week for my order to be processed?! Never waited this long for a product, what is going on?? Can’t seem to get an update from anyone either no option to cancel so what am I to do?

  • adzflowers Adam Flowers 🌼 (@adzflowers) reported

    @O2 hello. is iMessage down? I've updated to ios16 (iPhone) but got a message that "iMessage is Signed Out. An error occurred and your account is signed out. You may miss messages as a result. Go to Settings to address the issue." When I do, the "Send & Receive" is blank.

  • bearengland20 Alister (@bearengland20) reported

    @O2 why is signal so bad near Buckingham place? I know there’s a lot of people there, but surely you should have expected it?

  • davegilsenan Dave Gilsenan (@davegilsenan) reported

    @O2 As usual on my train from Newport to Paddington, data connection has been next to useless. Its so slow I can't even load a speed test. Other phones and networks all working well but O2 is awful

  • TheCakeSpa The Cake Spa (@TheCakeSpa) reported

    @O2 for months your coverage in #lichfield is diabolical... If it exists at all. Today... No signal, no internet. Absolutely useless.

  • PiggyMalone1 Piggy Malone (@PiggyMalone1) reported

    @O2 Your level of service is excruciatingly bad. Rip-off tariffs, dreadful network coverage and zero flexibility. Well done Telefónica!👏💩

  • dimats10 looking (@dimats10) reported

    @O2 in the USA again can’t on to network that works!!!! Furious. Last month in Seattle now in Atlanta. All customer service says… sorry 😠

  • philippamcleod Philippa McLeod (@philippamcleod) reported

    @Lichfield_Barry @O2 I have no signal either. It's horrendous in Lichfield.
