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

    Anyone got any suggestions on how to get a pac code from @O2 it's next to impossible to get through. Surely this is against @Offcom code of conduct? A comms network company that won't take customer calls!?! Anyone else having this problem? #ukmobile

  • ConnorByron2 Byron (@ConnorByron2) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @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

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

    @O2 known issue affecting quality of calls and 4G reduced to 3 G. Spoke with your Helpdesk who are aware of issue in BL3 area but no fix date. Why am i paying for a service i cant use. Been told to use wifi or hotspot. Been happening fir weeks now.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • jessslee_ Jess (@jessslee_) reported from Walkden, England

  • Julio_Afonso522 Julio Afonso 🇲🇿 🇵🇹 🇪🇺🇨🇭 (@Julio_Afonso522) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Why are you refusing a contract to a new customer just because they don't have a credit score? Person working full time with a good pay, bank account. Why refusing a contract?

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

    @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

  • PerryClaire27 Claire 🖤 (@PerryClaire27) reported from Manchester, England

  • AlexHamer1 Alex Hamer (@AlexHamer1) reported from Blackburn, England

    @O2 why has my 4G mysteriously stopped working just as my 2 year contract expires? I’m currently on a rolling contract at reduced rate. Seems very odd it would all of a sudden cut out completely?

  • lucyolix lucy (@lucyolix) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 is the signal down in Salford? Data isn’t working and the signal is either none or just one

  • LucyLoopy86 Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

  • Fub1968 Gary best (@Fub1968) reported

    @O2 The problem which I might add your advisor created and despite endless calls, live chat and DMs nobody seems to be able to fix.

  • misharavat misha (@misharavat) reported

    @O2 hi, I’ve just moved into a new flat and my O2 signal is TERRIBLE. Barely connects to 3G or 4G and doesn’t connect phone calls either. Is there a way of checking whether there is work going on or how to improve it?

  • gazza79er Gari 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧 (@gazza79er) reported

    @O2 You've been shamed on This Morning O2, Phil is giving you a chance to sort out Jayne's problem...Go go go!!!

  • PhilipJReynolds Philip J ReynoldsTV 🎥 📻 🎙 (@PhilipJReynolds) reported

    @O2 I think I’ll block the number and then get a new service provider. @O2 don’t seem to be doing a lot to block these calls from your network.

  • shuggieh Hugh ✌️ (@shuggieh) reported

    @PhilipJReynolds @O2 I left O2 because they are awful to deal with. EE are where it’s at

  • ScruffyJiver Ian (@ScruffyJiver) reported

    @O2 Sorry I feel that way? What kind of insulting Priti Patel style non-apology do you call that?! I shouldn't have to 'upgrade', let alone to a worse contract, to get a Loyalty bonus that I was never told would expire. Customer service at its very worst.

  • PotterJane Ashleigh (Quiche) (@PotterJane) reported

    @O2 had a customer complaint on this morning just now. Great opportunity to get this fixed #ThisMorning #MartinLewis

  • tony_mulryan Tony Mulryan (@tony_mulryan) reported

    @KatitudeUK @O2 I agree. If production of a product creates CO2 and production company offsets this to create net zero effect then they could achieve the same result by closing down their business. If CO2 is an actual concern shouldn't the targets be negative?

  • CitizenSnagging Citizen GrimRealist Snagging, Esq. (@CitizenSnagging) reported

    @O2 It's "Subway" at 121 St John's Road EH12 7SB. Yes, been able to use Wi-Fi there, but very poor service for many months.

  • CitizenSnagging Citizen GrimRealist Snagging, Esq. (@CitizenSnagging) reported

    @O2 Can only tell you that @Tesco and @RBS_Help offer a far superior Wi-Fi service locally.
