    @O2 Unfortunately I can't change it on the Link because I'm unable to sign in to my account with an incorrect email address

    Why does @O2 refuse to give you internet connection whenever there’s more than 4 people near you… Surely there’s enough infrastructure in Manchester to support 4G?! Every single time I’m in a city centre, my data just doesn’t work. It’s a joke

  • Gsd1Omara
    Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 why is the signal strength in #Middleton?? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking!! There’s loads of people wanting to change supplier

    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

    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

    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

  • 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?

    @l3479s @O2 Where I live our network masts haven't been working for almost a year - no answer for it whatsoever

  • 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?

  • 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

  • Gsd1Omara
    Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 why is the signal in #Middleton so poor??? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking signal. I know loads of people wanting to change supplier #notgood #sortitout

    @O2 how do you get through to you for a pac code. Been ringing for an eternity and still waiting. It's as if you're ignoring the call so i'll have stay. pretty cr*p service from a main mobile provider. Let me guess #hgvshortageexcuse or #covidexcuse #notfitforourpose @Offcom

    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?

  • ShanRebec94
    Shannon (@ShanRebec94) reported from Sale, England

    @chlo3matthewman @O2 @viagogo Tickets on there for over a £1000 now, O2 clearly weren’t experiencing issues with ticket demand unless you were an ordinary customer who wanted them at face value. Very very poor

    Getting so fed up my, my Samsung s25 ultra is constantly overheating, won't charge, the WiFi is awful and all I wasn't to do is log into my account to make sure it's still insured and I keep going round in circles trying to verify my email @O2

  • davidlondon92
    David (@davidlondon92) reported

    @O2 I’m roaming in the US on my ultimate plan and the 5G is painfully slow. I just realised you cap the speed at 2 mbps, which renders it pretty useless. Can I even buy a bolt on to remove the throttle? Not sure why I pay for an ultimate plan if your speed is so abysmal

  • PeterShelley25

    @MissWittank @O2 That’s a breach of contract by O2 so you should be free to terminate your contract without penalty

    @O2 @NotSoP3ng Signal is appalling these days as well.

  • SimonRPoulton
    Simon Poulton (@SimonRPoulton) reported

    Absolutely horrendous treatment of my wife by @O2 . This isn’t even a post to get something moving, already raised to the complaints team, and they’re doubling down on trapping her in a new contract while not supplying her the service she ordered. Terrible customer service!

  • onlytoff
    Toff (@onlytoff) reported

    @O2 “Doesn’t exclude Scotland” No, but it gives a far less service Let’s look at the tickets for example, out of the 32 acts advertised, ALL are playing in England, only 4 acts are playing in Scotland O2 pick their partners,surely making sure partners are playing 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 is only fair ?

    Been trying to talk to @o2 for over a week about releasing us from a £189 early termination charge, as had no service or signal from O2 for near 2 years. No call from them. Yet today we received an enforcement notice. Awful customer service @MartinSLewis
