    @EE following up on the bad signal in the area I now stay in, can’t even have a call while walking in the neighbourhood, I may have to make a drastic decision and move to @O2 I’m in a 12 month contract so what are the cancellation terms if you can not provide a reliable service?

  • saps_JP John (@saps_JP) reported from Stratford, England

    Seriously @O2 literally just taken out a contract with them and already worst service!!! Phone hasn’t arrived and was supposed to last Friday, only to find out it was sent back. Now I have to wait til they receive it and reorder another one.

  • Mr_Rafal Raf🇵🇱🇪🇺🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 (@Mr_Rafal) reported from Hackney, England

    @O2 hi guys! Quick question for you. Since we, me and my wife, joined you from different network we receive a lot of spam and scam in text messages and phone calls. Are you sure our details are protected properly? Calls are automated but use our full names! It actually worrying.

    Hey @O2 ten year customer here, I have no data for 8 days after upgrading to unlimited data because I need data. I need data. What can be done? I will be looking for a solution elsewhere if you cannot help.

  • Gill_Barr Gill Barr💙 (@Gill_Barr) reported from Islington, England

  • QueenMarkgaret scared of the mark (@QueenMarkgaret) reported from Ilford, England

    Hi @O2 I keep trying to call o2 to pay off a balance but it keeps saying ‘we cannot verify your security info’ and I cannot get any further. I am trying to change my tariff and have been trying for 2 days now. I have had the same conversation with 4 different people. Help.

  • arigork Ari Gork (@arigork) reported from Barnet, England

    @O2 Thanks guys. Going to get someone I know with O2 to come through so I can check what your network coverage is like. Wife’s with @VodafoneUK and has no issues.

  • jordanharris86 Jord (@jordanharris86) reported from Poplar, England

    @O2 hi, this morning I ordered a case from your website and it said there was a problem, but my card provider is saying the payment has gone through. Can you confirm whether this was the case or not? Thanks

  • Kierbro Kieran Brown #FRSA 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@Kierbro) reported from Camberwell, England

    @O2 Tried that. Unfortunately because of when I took out my last contract (just before you changed your terms) I’m stuck with this old handset until I can pay off £700 remaining on device. Shame as the new amazing iPhone camera would help my burgeoning photograph business massively.
