    Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Stockport, England

    @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 🥴

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Also sorry - but what’s the point in telling me to use a network checker if you don’t accept the results of the checker? That’s literally your app I’m using and it’s giving me terrible results.

  • 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

  • AbiClarey
    Abi (@AbiClarey) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 I seem to never have any internet access anywhere, even when showing 4G nothing loads and no WhatsApp’s come through

  • 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 ……

  • Mhamp84
    Myles Hampson (@Mhamp84) reported from Hindley, England

    @Clf88 @O2 Yeah it’s been fine , vodaphone network . I buy the phone out right and just pay for data

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

    @O2 Too little too late @o2 it shouldn't take you 90mins to answer query and your chat was unavailable... I'll go to another provider who offers a better service #notfitforourpose

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

    @O2 Yes the original problem is still not resolved. Can you DM me please to sort it out as I’m not wasting any more time with your shocking overseas call centres. Have you not realised by now they are a false economy?

  • Josh_Deegan
    Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @BigLouComedy @O2 100% Gonna try the general sale on Saturday. Don't hold much hope but you never know

  • Matt_Aspden

    @O2 is your payment gateway down? Had several calls to pay my bill, but can’t seem to process and payment on My O2 app

  • Josh_Deegan
    Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 has less than 20 mins to sort their app out. Come on guys, this is so bad

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @O2 your network coverage across the UK is awful: there’s about one street in Manchester where I get a useable 4G signal and nowhere else. Definitely isn’t my device as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • sonnisamosa
    Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Hello, my data hasn’t worked since yesterday. I’ve reset the network settings and my phone. Any ideas?

  • kellyvmckeown
    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

  • clare_jeffs
    Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, England

    They told her they are affiliated with @O2 and apparently do not offer cooling off periods. How can they miss-sell to a vulnerable lady with a brain injury and not cancel it. @plandotcom DISGUSTING.

  • 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.

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

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

  • springviewer

    @shafterjay @O2 Now we're paying good money for no service

    @huckleberrydan @mhewson_MCH @O2 Exactly the same here ! Data is just as bad even if got some phone signal. In a city can’t use the maps because it’s rubbish! My partner has moved to EE. & in going to follow suit if I can find a decent deal!

  • COMalley2017

    @o2 @TicketmasterUK The O2 priority link for Shed Seven is not working. It keeps sending me back to the priority app. Please advise ASAP

    @O2 priority link not working for pre sale concert tickets, click on it & it takes you to Ticketmaster, then says click on the o2 link & it takes you back to the priority app…not good!! 🤬

  • andrejpwalker
    André Walker (@andrejpwalker) reported

    Congratulations to @O2 you have the worst app I’ve ever used. I’ve clicked a link in my email at least 25 times. Unfortunately I’m unable to pay my bill. I refuse to spent anymore time on this.

  • jmilprint
    Jazza (@jmilprint) reported

    @mhewson_MCH @NickOresme @O2 I just switched to Giffgaff, 40gb data, and unlimited calls etc £10 a month on a rolling monthly contract. The 5G has been much more consistent with Giffgaff although it's the same network!!

  • SharonaJazzie
    Sharona (@SharonaJazzie) reported

    @LL2013A Also having problems. I think their customer service call centre has been hijacked by scammers. We've tried numerous times to contact @o2 to get resolution and still nothing. Time to investigate this @o2. I am resorting to Ofcom.

  • susieshrew
    Suzanne Shrewsbury (@susieshrew) reported

    @O2 appalled by your customer service. You left my daughter phone-less whilst travelling, all because your ineffective record-keeping could not provide her with the info that she needed for her insurance. You cost her a lot of money, & we never got to the bottom of the issue!!

  • Bunchofmanleyg1
    Greg (@Bunchofmanleyg1) reported

    @O2 since your app has changed things have been diabolical . I need to make payments never missed one and you’re treating me over a small amount though your system isn’t processing payments . I’ve tried three cards and PayPal and you’ve blocked my upgrade !
