    @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

    @O2 I have pretty much zero chance of getting 4G/3G anywhere I go in the country being on your network. Why? Paying for service I do not get

    @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.

  • chrisrogan
    Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, England

    Pee'd off at @GreggsOfficial and @O2 three weeks in a row with priority debacle. One week over charged, last week paid for my own this week walked out. Staff not trained in the offer and Greggs not responding to customer service emails. More Greggs issue than o2.

    @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 🥴

    @O2 Before I send, I’d like to know what you will do about this repeated problem. The stupid app signs you out randomly then sends you on the idiotic loop of email verification, which is hit or miss when it comes to working. It’s been like this ever since the ridiculous change

  • sameoldSm
    Sam (@sameoldSm) reported

    @angelazhay @EnglandRugby @O2 How do you honestly expect him to get quick ball when it’s not available due to poor clear outs? This JVP thing is just a brainless hate bandwagon. Mitchell has been no quicker for England when he’s started this year.

    @O2 @LutzSchueler (1/2) I'm having a hard time with your CS. Have had an Apple Watch issue since March. I couldn't buy through you. Had to go elsewhere which I didn't want. Now, it won't connect to network. Desperate to resolve before baby arrives next month for some independence

  • CooperHaans
    ZxZ (@CooperHaans) reported

    @O2 Does anyone find O2’s Data absolutely atrocious these days? I’ve been with them 15 years. Just got a new phone and plan and it’s as bad as I’ve ever known it. Might as well not have data half the time when I’m out. Really bad

  • gijayne999
    Natalie Jayne Smith (@gijayne999) reported

    @O2 would be great if someone could turn my phone back on. No customer service just ignorance. Money grabbing baffoons

    @O2 hi, I’m trying to get something sorted on my account but every time I try to submit the issue it says please try later. Can you help?

  • OJBlack
    Oliver Black (@OJBlack) reported

    @O2 hi, my O2 Virgin Media account is locked. I've rung twice over the past month to get in unlocked, the team member says they've raised a ticket, but it is still locked. I need to access my account. What the issue?

    @O2 the staff in your Blackpool store are the laziest and most unhelpful people I have ever come across. Ridiculously poor attitude

  • BMcFarlaneUK
    Brandon McFarlane (@BMcFarlaneUK) reported

    @O2 Thanks. I've downloaded the app and trying to run a speed test, but it says "you currently do not have network connectivity". I'm very much aware that's what the problem is. I'll leave it to you to find a solution.
