    Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, England

    Pee'd off at @GreggsOfficial and @O2 three weeks in a row with priority debacle. One week over charged, last week paid for my own this week walked out. Staff not trained in the offer and Greggs not responding to customer service emails. More Greggs issue than o2.

    @O2 Why are you refusing a contract to a new customer just because they don't have a credit score? Person working full time with a good pay, bank account. Why refusing a contract?

  • SteveVanDang
    Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported from Stockport, England

    Welp @O2 support was great tellin me no better deals,tho new customers get massively better deals & the signal in my area should be good 🤷. #Pac requested, got a @VOXI_UK Sim for half the price, better signal, more perks. 16 years brand loyalty with o2, was worth squat to o2.cya

    @joe_fush @O2 I've been trying to log into my @O2 account and you keep sending me text messages with codes on to log me in, but with absolutely zero signal I can not receive the codes to access my account 🥴

    @O2 @purpledolphins7 They didn't help me. They didn't apply the increase in speed. In fact they said I could have 1gig for £30 extraper month. False advertising and liars!

  • 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

  • HHBarn

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

  • eagleeyedferret
    Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 3/3 only conclusion I could reach is that your call centre staff are under pressure to make more calls and now routinely disconnect customer calls after a period of making no progress. What do you think??

  • millswarrior
    Clare Louise Mills (@millswarrior) reported from Golborne, England

    Boring trip in to work this morning because my phone isn’t connecting to any 4G, and nothing will load on 3G so can’t check @O2 network status

    @2gurlys1kupp @O2 @virginmedia Aye mate it’s horrible. I complained on live chat and got £30 off my bill. Told me it’s now been fixed but it’s still terrible. Virgin WiFi is just as bad.

  • VictoriaMh
    Victoria Hamilton (@VictoriaMh) reported

    Hi @O2, I’ve been a customer for over 20 years and I’m trying to do something as simple as upgrade my phone. Today I’ve experienced doc upload, payment, app login, chat, form failures, spent 60 minutes on hold today and still no resolution. Awful customer service. Unacceptable!

  • willmcgugan
    Will McGugan (@willmcgugan) reported

    So @O2 had to be one of the most incompetent mobile providers out there. I’m unable to top up. Their app breaks with cryptic errors. I’m unable to change plans as the change tariff link breaks with “too many redirects”. I can create a new plan, but that won’t let me keep my number. O2 customer services, don’t bother replying. There’s nothing you could do to salvage your reputation in my eyes.

  • humantorch1036
    Johnny Storm (@humantorch1036) reported

    Finally got through to @O2 customer service on the phone after about two hours. Utterly useless. Couldn't help one bit. Couldn't help with verification. Sim card has gone in the bin. Lost customer. @Ofcom needs to sort them out.

  • amandammcglynn

    @O2 I have been trying for over 4 years to resolve 2 issues with you &i get no further than guy in the call centre . 1 Youve been charging me and my son for my son’s account for years but won’t admit it 2 You have me registered with a completely different acc& No charging me too

  • mitchhirsty
    Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported

    @Archibald1878 @O2 And another one O2! You keep blaming your customers instead of actually fixing the broken payment gateway! Acknowledge the problem and fix it! The generic troubleshooting you provide is not going to resolve a problem on your end.

  • Plsdoright
    JCB (@Plsdoright) reported

    @O2 Another worrying call for someone claiming to be from O2 advising my sim is no longer usable and anew one would be delivered tomorrow. Have had about 10 similar calls! However previous callers didn’t call me a M….F…..when I declined. Please help @O2

  • SarahWM45
    Sarah H (@SarahWM45) reported

    On the phone to @o2 and the security settings to go through both automated and to human are utterly insane. Unworkable. Cannot understand what they are saying. Stressful and confusing. We have no signal for two years and they still want exit fees!! @MartinSLewis
