-
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
-
Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, EnglandTell 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?
-
Jess (@jessslee_) reported from Walkden, England@O2 hi, my mobile date isn’t working and hasn’t been for some hours. No issues in area, and everything looks normal, please help 🥱
-
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.
-
🇬🇷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
-
Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, EnglandPee'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.
-
Fran Edwards (@franlatics27) reported from Garswood, England@O2 can you refund me my monthly payment as all the masts in wigan are down and have been for weeks....thanks
-
Mario Alghatta (@malllmallll) reported from Manchester, England@O2 terrible service from you guys today. Thanks for the inconvenience...
-
James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, EnglandHello @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?
-
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
-
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?

Rob 🇪🇺🏴 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, Englandhaha, 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
-
-
James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England@O2 Well I said I am having problems with my 4g, you told me to follow the guide which told me to use the network checker, I showed you the results of the network checker and you said 4G isn’t about speeds. So what’s the point in telling me to use the network checker?
-
Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Manchester, England@laineyclements @O2 They’re appalling I’m going to cancel myself they are the worst mobile company I’ve ever dealt with they ignore you constantly cut you off leave you on hold zero customer service
-
Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, EnglandAbsolute 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
-
Dave Walsh (@Davew274) reported from Standish, England@AntStephen I’m with @O2 and it’s garbage inside the ground
-
Kathryn Blennerhassett (@BlennerK) reported from Manchester, EnglandHello @O2 is there a problem with the network? My calls aren’t going through.
-
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!

Matthew Ridsdale (@MattRidsdale) reported@O2 Well, I have never known anything as utterly shambolic as your customer service! Another two hours wasted tonight trying to help my mum resolve an issue with that occurred in JUL2025! Still no sign of a resolution. Come on, let's get it sorted. This is beyond a joke.
-
Cheryl Irving (@Dezrezchez) reported@O2 I am receiving updates already, however, I’ve just had my bill and because I have to switch my WiFi off to view it, I can’t because I have no signal. This has been ongoing for over a week now. It would be nice to have solutions not excuses!
-
Egerton Sinclair (@Eg_a_Sinclair) reported@O2 Thanks still not showing up, can I check if I’m already paying for this service does that make me unable to get the free month?
-
Nilesh Thanki (@NileshGThanki) reportedLooking for resolution from @O2 been having ongoing signal and network problems since joining in December 2025. Live in EN1, Enfield. Complaint after complaint and still no resolution. Why pay for a service if we are not receiving it. Can’t make basic calls in our own home!
-
Sarah H (@SarahWM45) reported@O2 absolute joke. Stringing me along, promising to call. Two weeks later. No call. Apparently that’s my fault, they were waiting on me. (They’re not). They are unable to answer a simple question. Customer service v stressful to deal with. @MartinSLewis
-
