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

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

  • 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??

  • Davew274

    @AntStephen I’m with @O2 and it’s garbage inside the ground

    @O2 I have done and no joy, paying 50 odd quid a month for crap signal and crap Internet signal everywhere I go, you want to help then help me cancel my contract for a service you are not providing 👍

    @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?

  • 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

  • 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.

  • millswarrior
    Clare Louise Mills (@millswarrior) reported from Golborne, England

    Boring trip in to work this morning because my phone isn’t connecting to any 4G, and nothing will load on 3G so can’t check @O2 network status

    @l3479s @O2 Where I live our network masts haven't been working for almost a year - no answer for it whatsoever

    Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi, my 4G signal over the last few months has been dreadful. I’m currently sitting with 3 bars of 4G and waiting about 10-20 seconds for a picture to download. I thought it was just me but seen plenty others complaining.

    @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???

  • SamAspinall95

    @O2 would you be able to Message me in regards to my bill, can’t seem to ring customer service just disconnects

  • kea11y
    Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

    @O2 Account locked out. Dear all my o2 account is locked and has been for approx 1 month with a couple of your agents promising to look into the issue and nothing has happened. This is frustrating and very poor service. I need my account unlocked asap.

  • Laurvy
    Lau (@Laurvy) reported

    @O2 You have connected me today and I haven’t even got my SIM card yet so I am now left with no mobile network, I also can’t sign into anything as it’s on a loop asking for a passkey, as a new customer I am regretting switching to you already

    Darryl Saul (@DarrylSaul79) reported

    @EnglandRugby @O2 Tell your arrogant, disrespectful poster boy Pollard.. that we are waiting on him in SA. Make him fully aware that his bullshit shenanigans **** wound be tolerated. In the same breath.. we also waiting on the "KANT" Tom Curry, who disrespected Felipe Contepomi. You are warned!🫵

    Michael Portal (@Mortalportal01) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Hi. In this instance speaking through Virgin Media, it was set up without my knowledge and without a written or verbal contract. I am in the middle of this mess now and have looked a complaint. Thank you

  • SouthernCazza1
    Carole ☘️ (@SouthernCazza1) reported

    @O2 Please help me. I have woken up to no network on my phone and when I restarted it I then got a message "SIM 2 not provisioned" I don't have two SIMs, just one. I urgently need my phone. I am registered disabled with life limiting conditions.

  • jennslcfc94
    MS (@jennslcfc94) reported

    @O2 my data has not worked for 2 days and I don’t know why. Your app never works. I’ve turned it all off and on and you asked me to DM but you have not helped in any way. Why has my 4G not been working!!????

  • 4Olivea
    41andabullet Olivea (@4Olivea) reported

    New scam to watch for with @O2 ring call centre with an issue. They add a new line to your account to fix an issue. Basically churning the customer for a new sale. And taking off advisors stats and earning themselves a bonus O2 stop call centre making sales. Please

  • IanCockerill2
    I.C (@IanCockerill2) reported

    @O2 I just arrived in France, and am unable to use my phone AGAIN, despite your text about “Welcome to France” and informing me about usage! I am unable to contact your support team, I am very angry. Please contact me and sort my problem. I pay you good money for no service!

  • Happyengland79
    Shana Hendry (@Happyengland79) reported

    Where's my refund @O2? Absolutely disgusting that you tell me I'm getting a refund and 14days later I still don't have it. Also you are going to owe me for this month too as you still haven't replaced the mast so it still doesn't work most of the time! #evidenceforombudsman
