    @Clf88 @O2 Yeah it’s been fine , vodaphone network . I buy the phone out right and just pay for data

  • 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?

  • 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

  • clare_jeffs
    Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, England

    They told her they are affiliated with @O2 and apparently do not offer cooling off periods. How can they miss-sell to a vulnerable lady with a brain injury and not cancel it. @plandotcom DISGUSTING.

    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

    ᴅᴏʙɪʀ ᴍɪᴀʜ 🐝 دوبر محمد مياه (@dobirmiah) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 I’ve not had access to the network all day, what’s going on? It would have been good to be notified of issues. Really not happy 😠 I’m due for an upgrade, might have to@consider switching to another network

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Also sorry - but what’s the point in telling me to use a network checker if you don’t accept the results of the checker? That’s literally your app I’m using and it’s giving me terrible results.

  • laticsian
    Ian Gee (@laticsian) reported from Chorley, England

    @O2 You've had a ****** stinker there haven't you. Website down all day for your #O2Priority. Gigs and Tours have allowed people to buy their tickets while your shitshow has allowed 1000's to miss out on tickets. Bravo!

  • 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 devise as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • HHBarn
    garDan (@HHBarn) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @O2 another day with no mobile or 4g in Rossendale.. 2 days in a row.. wow.. great service

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

  • 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.

  • 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 ……

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

    @O2 when are you going to fix the mobile signal in Manchester? Hardly anything in the city centre and I need to rely on Wi-Fi. Definitely not worth what I’m currently paying for it

  • dtackley
    Daniel Tackley (@dtackley) reported from Bury, England

    Oh what a surprise. @O2 have yet again failed to take my direct debit payment. Every month I call and they assure me the next payment will be taken but it never has. Sheer incompetence!

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

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

  • 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?

  • JacquiDarling
    Jacqueline (@JacquiDarling) reported from Bolton, England

  • kbushnell1975
    Kieren Bushnell (@kbushnell1975) reported

    @O2 You utterly useless clowns. There is no option to send a messag via private message, as surely anyone in your shoddy organisation should know. You are an utter disgrace and if this is the way you treat customers of 20 years plus, you are very much going down in my esteem.

  • lipsyfry
    Tim Fry (@lipsyfry) reported

    @O2 @CriticalRole @LessThanJake **** network do not waste your money

  • Stephen1494712
    Stephen (@Stephen1494712) reported

    @O2 Unfortunately despite having it dealt with twice, the app is showing the balance being brought forward from the previous month yet to see my own bill properly I have to use your ridiculous VirginMedia login instead of being able to simply use the app as normal. This is waste.
