  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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

  • Is_Me_Ben Ben Winstanley (@Is_Me_Ben) reported from Aspull, England

    @O2 incorrectly charge £XXX to our bank account. Admit this was done in error. We have to wait until 6th Jan 2021 before it can be refunded. Even then, we have to call back to request it on the day. Why do we put up with this type of customer service??

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

  • _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

  • 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

    @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. 😡

  • 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 your customer service chat is the worst I’ve ever encountered! Constantly resolving itself when I reply to a message! I’ve been trying to transfer my number for the last 2 months paying for 2 accounts! Any help?!?

  • uk_magma UK-MAGMA 🇬🇧 (@uk_magma) reported

    Keep checking @O2 website every day for the long awaited #GooglePixelWatch on an LTE Nothing. I'm definitely with the wrong network.

  • roshKrish rOsH (@roshKrish) reported

    @O2 Absolute bad customer service @O2

  • Louisesmith1982 Louise (@Louisesmith1982) reported

    @Graham92152509 @O2 Hi am having the same issue, going round in circles.

  • TrueFarnz Simon Farnsworth (@TrueFarnz) reported

    @VModifiedMind @O2 Incompetent SIM provisioning, incompetence setting your profile inside the network, incompetent planning, incompetent capacity management. Issue is O2 in all cases.

  • o_burbidge Owen 🎗 (@o_burbidge) reported

    Fed up of lousy signal across Newcastle with @Plusnet and so instead have applied for a new sim and gone to the dark side with @O2.

  • 1daynearer ☆no.apologies☆ (@1daynearer) reported

    @O2 In which case there is clearly a problem with either my account or my handset. I have had nothing but problems since I upgraded

  • bexinthecity05 (Rhode Island) Rebecca {Bex} 🧶✍️🎨📚🐝🎮🦌 (@bexinthecity05) reported

    @O2 are literally the worst network in the U.K. surely??? Been with them for over 15 years but I will most definitely be jumping ship when my contract ends!! The past 5 years I have had nothing but slow 4g and other issues.

  • b33nel Bee 🐝 (@b33nel) reported

    @O2 making it impossible to cancel a contract, even though 24 months is up 😤
