    @O2 I messaged earlier and you managed to help me with my query, I’ve since sent another DM but have not received any reply. I messaged as my husband lost his phone so you blocked it for me. It has now been returned by the taxi driver so he requires the phone unlocking please

    Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • TourdeMancBloke
    Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone got any suggestions on how to get a pac code from @O2 it's next to impossible to get through. Surely this is against @Offcom code of conduct? A comms network company that won't take customer calls!?! Anyone else having this problem? #ukmobile

  • HHBarn
    garDan (@HHBarn) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @O2 how can we have no mobile or 4g/5g service till Thursday.. Seriously is this a joke..

    Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Manchester, England

    @laineyclements @O2 They’re appalling I’m going to cancel myself they are the worst mobile company I’ve ever dealt with they ignore you constantly cut you off leave you on hold zero customer service

  • AlexHamer1
    Alex Hamer (@AlexHamer1) reported from Blackburn, England

    @O2 why has my 4G mysteriously stopped working just as my 2 year contract expires? I’m currently on a rolling contract at reduced rate. Seems very odd it would all of a sudden cut out completely?

  • CA_Speaky
    Craig (@CA_Speaky) reported from Wigan, England

    @WAFCWill @O2 Exactly the same mate… whether it’s in Wigan , Blackpool , Manchester or Liverpool. Always shocking service. Hardly any signal !! Poor service

  • J0eH0lmes
    Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 my phone is saying no sim so I have zero signal or data to call or text you. Any chance of getting someone to give me a ring to sort out a new sim card?

  • elgobsucram
    Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported from Manchester, England

    Always good finding 3 unknown direct debits to @O2 2 months *after* reporting fraud, especially after they refused to refund the charges to gambling websites I’d never even heard of

    @l3479s @O2 Where I live our network masts haven't been working for almost a year - no answer for it whatsoever

    @O2 Hi can I have some help please, it’s not allowing me to send you a DM.

  • Davew274
    Dave Walsh (@Davew274) reported from Standish, England

    @AntStephen I’m with @O2 and it’s garbage inside the ground

  • ZackHallam
    Zack Hallam 🐝 (@ZackHallam) reported from Manchester, England

    Why does @O2 refuse to give you internet connection whenever there’s more than 4 people near you… Surely there’s enough infrastructure in Manchester to support 4G?! Every single time I’m in a city centre, my data just doesn’t work. It’s a joke

  • AdnyNichols
    Andy Nichols (@AdnyNichols) reported from Horwich, England

    @O2 Hi i changed my contract with you last Wednesday and have been waiting for a delivery order reference KMM2134901340I15977L0KM. It has not arrived yet can you help please.

    Is it just me or is @O2 signal getting worse and worse.

  • Chris_Mr_T
    Chris Thompson (@Chris_Mr_T) reported from Chorley, England

    Hi @O2 we’ve been in Blackpool most of the day and have little or no signal until we were leaving. Do you have a known issue, a lack of cell towers or something? We’ve been half a dozen times this year and it’s always the same on 3 different phones.

  • SamAspinall95
    Sam (@SamAspinall95) reported from Leyland, England

    @BennyBlanco22 @O2 @Apple Yep, I had a 5g signal but nothing loading up. Spoke to mates and they said the same. Had it for years, don’t know why I tolerated it. Entire villages I visited with work blacked out. So much better with ID/3.

  • SarahWM45
    Sarah H (@SarahWM45) reported

    Well apparently if @o2 can provide no service, you still need to pay for it. We have both stuck with and paid for a service that does not work for 2 years and the repayment from O2 is to charge us for leaving. Been a customer for 10 years. @MartinSLewis

    Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported

    @Lucozade3D @O2 Look O2, another person who is getting the same issue when trying to pay the bill. Surely you know this is widespread by now! Sort it out and stop blaming your customers for your mistakes!

    @kokeshimum @O2 Same ****. Yet, o2 have increased their customer bills for the past 12 consecutive years. That’s a 4-10% increase every year since 2014.
