  • marikapaprik marico (@marikapaprik) reported from Walkden, England

    Please tell me @O2 why I have so many issues calling you up? You cut off my phone and every time I try to call up to get it reconnected it’s a damn hassle?

    @O2 I am so upset with how I haven’t been helped by you .... you have left me in a worst situation .... Getting told different thing by each customer service member ... and to top it off having a member of your team hang up on me ..... Disgusting ....

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 I've sent 3 DMs and 1 other tweet regards a reply. Can somebody please help with my yes or no question I sent??

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 when will the 4G signal be back to normal working order? Is COVID still a factor in this? I'm sure the signal strength was cut short due to more people working at home etc.

  • emmabirdy Em (@emmabirdy) reported from Blackburn, England

    @O2 what’s going on with your network around the Bb2 area of blackburn? Had poor signal for several days but according to you you’ve either fixed it or there is no issues. #rubbish #needsignal

  • Mr_Ricker79 Ricky Gwilliam (@Mr_Ricker79) reported from Manchester, England

    @lmjwoww @O2 Exactly... their response didn’t help at all as I had already been on their website. I would say they don’t currently have 5G in Manchester. Contradicting the info on the website. 😡

  • sophiemaycath soph 🌞 (@sophiemaycath) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 trying to pay my phone bill and it's saying my Monzo bank card isn't an accepted payment method, tried using my Barclays but it's saying payment not working when I have the dolla in my bank? Xx

  • anthonylawson79 Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 is the 4G signal across the country still being limited due to covid?

  • DodgyValley Balcombe (@DodgyValley) reported from Walkden, England

    @O2 is there an issue with O2 data network centre of Sheffield at the moment, not been working last few hours

  • Mr_Ricker79 Ricky Gwilliam (@Mr_Ricker79) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Are you able to confirm, without directing me to your website (which doesn’t answer my question and does not help) when 5G will be available in Manchester? Thank you

  • lizzielichfield Anna Taylor (@lizzielichfield) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 Morning, I got a free subscription to @calm when upgrading which shows on my account however no instructions how to access & it’s not linking to my @calm app. Please help.

  • DWATKINSON Daniel Watkinson (@DWATKINSON) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 are really frustrating me, I need my service restoring but can’t seem to do it right now

  • _Mikki1993 Mikki (@_Mikki1993) reported from Bury, England

    @O2 I phoned and the woman I spoke with said the amount showing in 'usage cost' was my overall bill as opposed to being in addition to what was showed under 'handset cost' which I've never know to be the case before. Is this correct?

  • DWATKINSON Daniel Watkinson (@DWATKINSON) reported from Urmston, England

    So @O2 take the bar off my phone at 1700 hours and nearly 6 hours later the bar is still there even tho they told me it would be removed after 10 minutes, not like I need to use my phone or anything. I’ve only been a customer for 12 years and only spent about £5000 on them

  • katarn_a1 David Moores (@katarn_a1) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 hello I have dropped my phone and need it repaired or replaced because the back of has a crack in it .my local shop is closed down so how can I do this

  • x_Saz Sarah Pollard (@x_Saz) reported from Bryn, England

    @O2 you’ve charged me 6.99 for nominated delivery today with DPD @dhlexpressuk & the courier went to the wrong address & made out he’d been & said I wasn’t in. Worst customer service I’ve ever received & I expect a refund

  • goughy84 Mark Lister (@goughy84) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 hi. I have Disney+ free till end month, when it then becomes £5.99. I saw on o2 offers I can add it for £3.99. Do I need to cancel and re add for the discount or will the £2 off auto apply when it becomes chargeable? Thanks

    @O2 I took a pay monthly e-sim this week and ported my number from giffgaff. I don't have any signal since then and I can see correct mobile number in the my o2 section. I have sent my number in DM. Could someone take a look, please?

  • stevewoody99 Steve Woodward (@stevewoody99) reported

    @Webby180 @O2 are awful aint they worst thing I ever done getting into a contract with them . Can’t get internet anywhere unless Wi-Fi

  • TimWoods63 Tim Woods (@TimWoods63) reported

    @O2 utterly appalling coverage in WN postcodes for several days now yet your coverage checker claims everything is wonderful indoors and out. STOP TELLING LIES! THIS WAS SUPPOSEDLY BEING SORTED OUT ON 12 JULY AS THE PROBLEM WAS 'CAPACITY' IF ANYTHING ITS GOT WORSE. O2 - LIARS

  • 0xghostUK Ghost - 🅶🅷🅾🆂🆃 - A Guy That Plays WoW (@0xghostUK) reported

    @O2 After multiple attempts and one of the reps hanging up on me I managed to get to someone who helped, problem solved. Just wish it was more easier to get hold of someone.

  • TheDoodle84 Wingnut (@TheDoodle84) reported

    @O2 🇨🇾 . I cant call out on my phone to Cypriot numbers. Your help system has me in a continuous loop to try and get support. I then try and call the O2 support number from abroad and get "line busy". Pretty frustrating as I need to make some calls to Cypriot numbers

  • gibatell Van Gib (@gibatell) reported

    @O2 singal in prestwick is terrible !!

  • poppyandjules Paul Oxberry (@poppyandjules) reported

    @akpsnow @O2 Not sure masts would be an issue in Manhattan. The whole island says 5G coverage by T Mobile, yet I can't even get a signal outside the hotel front door, nevermind any sort of usable data speeds. Our daughter is still under contract with Three and gets perfect coverage with AT&T

  • WardydartsWard Andrew Ward (@WardydartsWard) reported

    @VickyNe03664800 @O2 Agreed, I'm on day 2 without network coverage, I've been told it'll be done by 11th August, I've got an online business to run and using up my data fast, compensation time??

  • kells__xx Kelly Hayes♡ (@kells__xx) reported

    @O2 and now you're customer service put me on hold for 10 minutes to then end the call. I'm about to lose my temper for something you guys have messed up.

  • ThEUnReaLWuN ThEUnReaLWuN (@ThEUnReaLWuN) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam It's not sky that's the problem it's @O2 as it was the same when I was on their network. You never get more than 1mbs even with 4 bars on 4g.
