Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Bolton and nearby locations:

  • bsdesigned Brent Starling (BS) (@bsdesigned) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Constant drop out in the centre of Manchester due to congestion. Got told by a representative that: After speaking with our Network Service Team, the level of service you’re receiving is the expected level within that area. And it's part of T's and C's.. So tough luck.

  • nickfudge123 N Eddy (@nickfudge123) reported from Whitworth, England

    @O2 They are both in the same house..... 28 days was never mentioned #misold

  • cazatmacs Carol Johnson 🐝 (@cazatmacs) reported from Middleton, England

    @Cheryllee64 @O2 @tescomobile No people are having problems here with them too, I’m going to try @ThreeUK

  • natalie_19851 Natalie Johns (@natalie_19851) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 You need to fix the problem on your site because I can’t purchase the Samsung Galaxy Buds on offer with the @O2PriorityUK offer 😡😡

  • _chris_a Chris (@_chris_a) reported from Manchester, England

    As if the network congestion issues in many parts of the country weren't bad enough @O2 have excelled themselves with dire customer service agents. I'm named on my husband's account but one agent shouted at me you only deal with the account holder and then hung up.

  • bolgamy sarcastic bastard (@bolgamy) reported from Manchester, England

    For months I have been complaining about @O2 network. Central Manchester, Bolton Town Centre, Liverpool Town Centre, Edinburgh, Glasgow, etc... I pay over £300 for that privilege. And now you want to reducing the customer loyalty discount...this customer won’t be loyal!!

  • kml1959 Kevin Lewis (@kml1959) reported from Stockport, England

    You just have to love @O2 one of the most grasping dishonest companies on the planet...they overcharge my business by £80. (their own error) .never apologise but expect you to pay the bill in full and then wait for a credit...what a joke outfit, cancelling all contracts Monday

  • AlanFarrimond Alan Farrimond (@AlanFarrimond) reported from Wigan, England

    @Latics1932 @EmmaThommo @PKendrickWIG @skintnortherner I’m the same I’m with @O2 once I leave the supporters club where I get WiFi and enter the DW it all goes blank, nothing, no signal.

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @EE Hi JT. Not yet I’m focussed on having my £742 back from @O2 then I will have a look and start a contract. The customer service and signal is appalling from O2 so I’m looking forward to changing to a reputable service provider.

  • JonNutten Jon Nutten (@JonNutten) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 Not what your customer service staff offered. 😕 typical of @o2businessuk

  • cazatmacs Carol Johnson 🐝 (@cazatmacs) reported from Rochdale, England

    I will be cancelling my @O2 contract ASAP I’m giving you more than £30 a month and getting no signal at all for 8 hours every evening during my shift could you please send me a code to keep my number.

  • VivienneNewt0n Vivienne Newton (@VivienneNewt0n) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 yet again I’m let down by you - ordered an upgrade & chose a phone in stock. Then told the phone was out of stock - but I can’t change my order!! Disabled, going on holiday & needed the phone 😡@PiratePaul2705

  • RichardHesketh1 Richard Hesketh (@RichardHesketh1) reported from Haslingden, England

    @O2 We have performed FFR necessarily, as this problem has persisted over three phones. This is an issue of inherited number. Very weird. We've been in touch with the previous user and they are aware. Changed their details etc. It's still happening.

  • VivienneNewt0n Vivienne Newton (@VivienneNewt0n) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 £38 for an iPhone 7 handset only in store at Bolton. MyO2 offer is £38 phone and handset. I’m disabled & would have liked support face2face but the assistant said they can’t compete with online deals!! That’s ridiculous! @PiratePaul2705

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @carleyjones1 @O2 No! I never use all my data or minutes. The bill for May- which comes out on 11th June, was only £38 something. I checked the app and I’m up to date. There is no reason to take such a large amount. I can’t even talk after having my tonsils out, it’s a pain in the arse x

  • lebradle lorraine bradley (@lebradle) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 new customer to O2 and I’m appalled at the customer service I’ve received. Been told lies after lies. Would appreciate someone to get back to me to sort it out.

  • cicismith81 Careen 'Cici' Smith (@cicismith81) reported from Manchester, England

    Message to @O2 There is NO need for any CSA to hang up on me because I corrected you. I’m now having to pay extra money because a CSA ****** up. And you won’t do a damm thing about it.

  • TrickyLad Richard Kirkham (@TrickyLad) reported from Manchester, England

    just seen there’s something called #O2Surprise, been with @O2 and their previous incarnations since 2003 and all I’ve ever had is sh*tty reception and bad service, or is that the surprise 🤔

  • steven_rothwell steven rothwell (@steven_rothwell) reported from Leigh, England

    @O2 could you tell me why the signal is shockingly bad in Leigh Lancashire

  • JennaHorridge_x Jenna Horridge ☮ (@JennaHorridge_x) reported from Manchester, England

    Why is the signal for @O2 in @manairport shocking & has been for days! 😠

  • woollala11 woollala1 (@woollala11) reported

    @O2 how hard is it to do transfer of ownership. My ex and I have spoken to two customer service and gave two passwords and yet someone still mucks up. It’s getting ridiculous that Ive to keep calling with my ex (going through a breakup which isn’t easy) and causing me more pain

  • coach_ry1 Ry (@coach_ry1) reported

    @O2 I tried to cancel my order and you’ve cancelled my number that I’ve had for 15 years. Can you help urgently?

  • mathewhudson84 Matthew Hudson (@mathewhudson84) reported

    @o2 absolute shower of shite!!!! Worst service I’ve ever had to deal with!! Stay away!!!!

  • Mxdir Mxdir (@Mxdir) reported

    @O2 Hey team! Thanks for the response. I rarely take international calls, so I couldn't say whether it was just this one number. After them trying and failing 3 times, I rebooted my phone and all worked well again, so fingers crossed that's the end of my issues!

  • Matthew91952959 Matthew Townsend (@Matthew91952959) reported

    I cannot believe how dreadful the coverage is with @EE. You would think by now you could have a telephone conversation without sounding like a Darlik. Never had this problem with @O2 cant wait to be able to go back to them.

  • s6lty1 Salty 💙 (@s6lty1) reported

    Switched to @O2 this year, could I have made a worse decision?! Absolutely useless network coverage, phone line or data!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • IanGianni Ian Gianni 🐟 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇮🇹 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@IanGianni) reported

    @MartinSLewis I quite like the @O2 contracts paying separately for the phone and service, but I constantly get far worse signal than my wife on Vodafone, especially at home where I need to be near a window, so I may have to change as soon as expire.

  • ZachElsbury Zach Elsbury 🇺🇦 (@ZachElsbury) reported

    @CCInLonderland @O2 I’m used to iMessage and not having to worry about **** like this.

  • IanGianni Ian Gianni 🐟 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇮🇹 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@IanGianni) reported

    @MartinSLewis I quite like the @O2 contracts, with roaming included and paying separately for the phone and service, but I constantly get far worse signal than my wife on Vodafone, especially at home where I need to be near a window, so I may have to change as soon as expire.

  • abscullion Tony Scullion (@abscullion) reported

    @O2 Why will a DM make any difference. Can you do something your customer service can’t do?
