  • howierice
    Howard Rice (@howierice) reported from Sale, England

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

  • DaveWrigh
    Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

  • JonnyGravel
    jonnytaylor (@JonnyGravel) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 really poor customer service today when trying to open a new account #exasperated

  • kellyvmckeown
    Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Manchester, England

    Avoid @o2 at all costs they are the worst company I’ve ever had to deal with absolutely zero customer service no choice other than to cancel

  • J0eH0lmes
    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 🥴

  • TwoEyedGovernor
    Sherwin Clark-Assoon (@TwoEyedGovernor) reported from Manchester, England

    As soon as my contracts up @o2 it’ll be the last day you’ll ever get any money from me been with you guys for 10 years and you kick people down when they’re on their knees.

    @AndyOxon @O2 @virginmedia I've been waiting five months. Complaint gone external now!

  • 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?

  • 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 ……

  • shafterjay
    Jay Unsworth (@shafterjay) reported from Wigan, England

    @O2 is there a issue with your app / website can’t get access

  • 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.

    @biteme_brighton @O2 @leemc87 It’s awful in Manchester

  • familyhomecook
    FAMILY HOME COOK (@familyhomecook) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 My data is not working. Unless I’m connected to Wi-Fi I cannot do any browsing. Is there an issue?

  • MattyHenno
    Matt Henno (@MattyHenno) reported from Appley Bridge, England

    @O2 How are customers buying them when there’s no way of accessing your app or your browser version? You’re advertising a service that you’re not providing. Answers please

  • 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.

  • bodsy0
    Mike Bowden (@bodsy0) reported from Stockport, England

    @o2 you really need to change your 'on-hold' music #terrible 😎

  • kea11y
    Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

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

    @BattyeB @EE I'm afraid I can't recommend @O2 even if they have good coverage where you are... you can't get any service from them. Been trying to get through for an hour this time #notfitforourpose

  • RJakesEU
    Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

    haha, just had an (obviously scam) phone call from someone who claimed to be from @O2 … when they asked how the service was and I said it was poor, they hung up

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

    @carolyn_keenan @O2 @peterkay_co_uk Go directly through gigs and tours. Some more dates added later in 2023. I've just manged 2 get 2 for Sept 2023 in Manchester no problem.

    @O2 signal used to be top tier! Since teaming up with @Virgin it’s probably time to leave. It’s awful!

  • MissParisRenee
    Yuri パリ🇩🇲🇱🇨 (@MissParisRenee) reported

    @O2 what is going on with your signal, it's always bad, but the last few days have been horrendous, 1-2 bars max even outside of the house!

  • zeeplamer
    Zee Palmer (@zeeplamer) reported

    @MissNads22 @O2 @EE claim to be the best network, if not because I have a broadband at home, people would have thought I live up in the mountains and had to go outside to get a network 😭

  • j_macgeever
    Jordan J MacGeever (@j_macgeever) reported

    @DelBoy80s @EnglandRugby @O2 Facts. **** him off

  • JohnnyFocal
    Jon Thompson (@JohnnyFocal) reported

    @O2 Well, literally, I don't have any data throughput virtually nowhere around the whole of central London, around Soho, Covent Garden, Bloomsbury, King's Cross. And it's not my iPhone and it's not the settings, because I have three iPhones, all with different services from Vodafone, EE, 3, and yourself. Oh, and also Giffgaff, which is on the same network as yours, but Giffgaff always seems to work. Weird that. So either you've completely throttled my data to zero, which is odd considering I'm on the ultimate package, or the service just doesn't work in central London. See if you can fix it.

    @O2 Problem fixed 7:30 pm , problem identified 7 pm . Everything is ok.

    @O2 your service is terribly poor and slow nowadays, & the amount of same complaints I’m seeing about you is quite shocking!

    @TheHewman @EnglandRugby @O2 You might need to have someone help you, it has some big words like "and" and "it"

    @missingSanremo @O2 I wouldn';t hold our breath. New sim received 10 days ago, wont activate.. they are next to USELESS and really have Zero customer care. Cancelled it, going to gifgaff.

    @JohnnyFocal @O2 I was in Covent Garden on a Saturday morning. Zero signal, I am with EE which claims to have “England’s best mobile network” - my @ss
