  • ConnorByron2
    Byron (@ConnorByron2) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @O2 I have pretty much zero chance of getting 4G/3G anywhere I go in the country being on your network. Why? Paying for service I do not get

  • aflanagancarter
    Amy Rowland (@aflanagancarter) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 what is with no service in Manchester?! So bad and un safe!

  • Hurstchris2102
    Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, England

    Absolute shambles from @O2 with the pre sale of Peter Kay tickets. I managed to get some through gigs & tours but no checks so could have bought them even if I wasn't an O2 customer. Pointless having a pre sale if its open to all #peterkay #O2Priority

  • lucyolix
    lucy (@lucyolix) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 is the signal down in Salford? Data isn’t working and the signal is either none or just one

  • 17jkennedy
    Jacqualine Kennedy (@17jkennedy) reported from Bryn, England

    It’s already been said but @o2 it’s a disgrace - early access to Peter Kay tickets - no chance, now sold out - O2 customers were NEVER getting priority ……

  • 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?

  • CherylManley14
    Cheryl Manley (@CherylManley14) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 due a phone call from an engineer looking into my account at the very latest today. Rang in, lost signal, advisor had to call me back. Still nothing but yet bet you’ll take payment on time for poor service

  • Shelo_Mrs
    🌸Shelo🌸 (@Shelo_Mrs) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 why is it IMPOSSIBLE to speak yo somebody about your crappy service & non existent network????? £50 per month for NO SERVICE AT ALL for almost 12 months ! That's £600 shocking company!!

  • 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

    20 years with @O2 and this will be my last contract with them come September the staff in the Blackburn store need a lesson in salesmanship when sat in front of a customer looking down at their phone texting is not a great way of convincing people to stay with the network

  • leannt1984
    Leann (@leannt1984) reported from Salford, England

    Hi @O2 I’m both a virgin media customer and have a pay monthly sim with O2 and i am struggling to sign up to Volt! Help!

  • Andy_TheGrouch
    Andy (@Andy_TheGrouch) reported from Bryn, England

    @O2 no chance i’m renewing, genuinely shite network coverage, cant make call when driving without it sounding like someone is under water & call failing. Mast been down in Ashton for over a week. Phone basically useless. Troubleshooting links are pointless - not good enough.

  • liammcdon97
    Liam McDonald (@liammcdon97) reported from Stockport, England

    £40 a month for @O2 and can't even get any signal majority of the time. Absolute jokers.

  • JacquiDarling
    Jacqueline (@JacquiDarling) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 known issue affecting quality of calls and 4G reduced to 3 G. Spoke with your Helpdesk who are aware of issue in BL3 area but no fix date. Why am i paying for a service i cant use. Been told to use wifi or hotspot. Been happening fir weeks now.

    @O2 why is your signal in Manchester so, so ****?!

  • Dr_Bass
    Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi, my 4G signal over the last few months has been dreadful. I’m currently sitting with 3 bars of 4G and waiting about 10-20 seconds for a picture to download. I thought it was just me but seen plenty others complaining.

    @O2 I did and it said there were no issues but now that I’m outside of my office I seem to have access to data now

  • ebamsky
    Skylier (@ebamsky) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 You're right. O2 should be the worst. I've used Three (more of coverage than quality problem) which was fair, I've recently ported to EE-based provider from O2.

    @TicketmasterUK @AXS_UK @O2 GIVE US OUR ARIANA TICKETS NOW THAT TRANSFER IS AVAILABLE!!!!!! yall cannot be this dense & slow

  • Chris94501165
    Chris (@Chris94501165) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 Tom, cell masts use this thing called electricity. Essentially O2 are underpowering them due to the cost of energy. The bad news for you is that the cost of Net Zero is increasing those energy costs. Who enshrined it in to law? Secondary order consequences are a thing...

  • silestanix
    Mr H (@silestanix) reported

    @O2 I've got a formal complaint pending at the moment so I doubt online team could push it any further but appreciate you guys wanting to look into this, will DM you the complaint reference number. And yes, PAC code would be good too, will send my number in that same dm.

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE What did the last government prioritise over phone signals? The problem is not new

  • vinzthinks
    Vinod SK (@vinzthinks) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 It is shameful , utterly irresponsible that UK has one of the worst quality of infrastructure.. across Europe , Asia , it is vastly superior including countries as India where usage is so high ..this has to be priority #1 especially as you throw down the drain money on HS2 etc
