  • SimpaticoGem Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SOGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • 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

  • thefirkinbar The Firkin (@thefirkinbar) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @WilJudkins @EE Im on @O2 the date coverage is absolute terrible. Minus a random field in Donnington.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @O2 I messaged earlier and you managed to help me with my query, I’ve since sent another DM but have not received any reply. I messaged as my husband lost his phone so you blocked it for me. It has now been returned by the taxi driver so he requires the phone unlocking please

  • Chrisg3985 Chris (@Chrisg3985) reported from Leigh, England

    Anyone else’s #O2Priority gone down? @O2 was fine an hour ago

  • 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.

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

    @O2 2/2 both occasions the call centres were noisy. Call centre operative didn’t speak very god English. Both operatives complaining their systems were slow or not working at all and putting me on hold for long periods.

  • ZackHallam Zack Hallam 🐝 (@ZackHallam) reported from Manchester, England

    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

  • _hayleighhxo Hayleigh Cross 🌷 (@_hayleighhxo) reported from Haydock, England

    Spending 30 mins on the phone to @O2 for them to do nothing because they have to wait till the issues are resolved. Is there a number I can call to make a complaint?

  • AtlasSailing 🇬🇷Atlas Sailing🇬🇧 (@AtlasSailing) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 @o2 Your service in Bolton area has been terrible over recent weeks to the point I am considering leaving. When will this improve??? #badservice #telephone

  • StevenB93941279 Steven Burns (@StevenB93941279) reported from Ramsbottom, England

    Is it just me or is @O2 signal getting worse and worse.

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

    @O2 3/3 only conclusion I could reach is that your call centre staff are under pressure to make more calls and now routinely disconnect customer calls after a period of making no progress. What do you think??

  • 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 ……

  • KerryOw80160432 Kerry Owen (@KerryOw80160432) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @O2 hi guys, I've not had a signal for 2 weeks, got a sick relative and a signal, please help!! Post code BL52LF

  • 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

  • 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

  • AtlasSailing 🇬🇷Atlas Sailing🇬🇧 (@AtlasSailing) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @O2 Work was meant to be completed last week! Do I move to a better mobile company or are you going to improve the service???

  • SimpaticoGem Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • 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

  • 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?

  • arthurmillar arthur millar (@arthurmillar) reported

    @virginmedia the standard of service at virgin is abismal. A customer for 30 years and I've been lied to 3times to upsell @O2 Sim in last week and had 4 different contract arrangements sent only to have services switched off since Friday 17/06 until 23/06. Please get in touch

  • Olliejames90 OJ (@Olliejames90) reported

    Anyone had it where your phone loses signal and 4G and it never comes back? Had no 4G for a few days and now the network has gone entirely. Reset it, took the sim out, did all the different settings. No cigar. Any ideas? @O2

  • MarkHac56209533 Mark Hackett (@MarkHac56209533) reported

    @O2 how do I raise a complaint about a decision on screen burn for a recycled device.

  • WhyNotts_ 🤔 (@WhyNotts_) reported

    Just wanted to thank the staff member at @o2 #victoriacentre for their help this morning 👍 He was friendly & patient, got my problems solved & reassured me that I can return if necessary. Excellent work 👍

  • ShemFelix6 Shem Felix (@ShemFelix6) reported

    What is happening with @O2 and @virginmobileuk. No signals on either in SE12 There's a strike causing some of us to work from home, only to have no signal as well.

  • Dolina11 Christina Brannan (@Dolina11) reported

    @O2 been trying to pay a closing balance on a phone bill but I can’t. Have tried calling customer services 17 times and I still haven’t got through to anyone. Been on hold for most of the time and then sometimes just cut off!! How can I pay the bill before I get fined?!

  • powpowpeo Liam Pearson (@powpowpeo) reported

    @O2 @o2businessuk Absolutely appalling customer service from your business team! In your York store with my mother to upgrade to a business account, after being on hold to your referrals team for over 30 minutes, they just hung up the phone. Nearly 2 hours there and no phone!

  • amyjo94z Amy-Jo Hurlstone (@amyjo94z) reported

    @O2 4 hrs been on phone trying to take a contract out only to be passed from pillar to post, hung up on and gotten no where. Apparently your systems are down as when I click the link to confirn my contract it says error?! And none of your staff seem to know what to do Fuming!

  • sarahstoney1984 Sj (@sarahstoney1984) reported
