    Shannon (@ShanRebec94) reported from Sale, England

    @chlo3matthewman @O2 @viagogo Tickets on there for over a £1000 now, O2 clearly weren’t experiencing issues with ticket demand unless you were an ordinary customer who wanted them at face value. Very very poor

  • elgobsucram
    Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported from Manchester, England

    Always good finding 3 unknown direct debits to @O2 2 months *after* reporting fraud, especially after they refused to refund the charges to gambling websites I’d never even heard of

  • eagleeyedferret
    Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @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.

    @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 Work was meant to be completed last week! Do I move to a better mobile company or are you going to improve the service???

  • 6danicalifornia
    Dani Tomlinson 🎶 (@6danicalifornia) reported from Horwich, England

    I really wish @O2 can sort out the issues in Horwich. Trying to contact your insurance and police etc after a break in is extremely frustrating when there's no bloody signal 😡😡

    The Firkin (@thefirkinbar) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @WilJudkins @EE Im on @O2 the date coverage is absolute terrible. Minus a random field in Donnington.

  • anthonyewbank
    MUFC689908 (@anthonyewbank) reported from Middleton, England

    I'd like to make a complaint @O2

  • 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

  • Mhamp84
    Myles Hampson (@Mhamp84) reported from Hindley, England

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

  • DaveWrigh
    Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

  • ecgdave
    Dave Johnson (@ecgdave) reported from Edenfield, England

    @O2 hello upgraded my phone last week and submitted a sim swap request that's still not been actioned in over 24hrs is there an issue?

  • J0eH0lmes
    Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Stockport, England

    @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 🥴

  • 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

  • Dr_Bass
    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.

  • Gsd1Omara
    Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 why is the signal strength in #Middleton?? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking!! There’s loads of people wanting to change supplier

  • 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

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

    @O2 how can we have no mobile or 4g/5g service till Thursday.. Seriously is this a joke..

    Chris TheLurch Saunders 🌶 (@Thelurch) reported

    @cpfcjc Wow! Such denial! Unbelievable. Go to @EE like we did. The @O2 staff in that shop are encouraging everyone to defect to EE as they are so fed up with people complaining about no signal in the town.

  • stumac1987
    Stuart McBride (@stumac1987) reported

    Leaving @O2 after 23 years as a customer. Very unhappy with how Mum was treated.

  • mitchhirsty
    Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported

    @Chriswa19691781 @O2 That’s not the only thing that can’t be done with O2 at the moment! Are you able to pay your bills on the app or website? I’m not and quite a few others aren’t either. There is something broken on their end and no one is looking into it

  • Swabsy1810
    Steve (@Swabsy1810) reported

    @O2 @CliveDaviesUK @O2 it’s just the same here in SK6 1PG area so many places where no signal or usable data. This is a relatively affluent area but your provisions are shocking

  • wozwebs
    wozwebs (@wozwebs) reported

    @Jonny_Ham @O2 They usually limit companies who use their network to 100mb whereas unlinked I can get 700mb some cities

  • Arfurgolf
    Rod Clarke (@Arfurgolf) reported

    @O2 why are your customer services refusing to replace a brand new 16 day old iPhone 17 . It’s faulty and they are making life very difficult. Worst customer care ever.

  • ComradeAzul
    joe ♞ (@ComradeAzul) reported

    @O2 hi do you have a customer service email please?

  • staggy77
    Lord Stagg®️ (@staggy77) reported

    @O2 please explain to me who decides what is fair usage on an unlimited data package? And why if you are on an unlimited data package it’s not actually unlimited? Awful customer service and mobile provider.

  • ChrisMPattinson
    Chris M Pattinson (@ChrisMPattinson) reported

    @Morgan7MJ @O2 The service in the UK is appalling now. The bandwidth is not big enough to support the number of subscribers on all networks. Vodafone is bad also especially in London

  • CHECKEREDLESTER
    jade needs to drink water (@CHECKEREDLESTER) reported

    @MaryxSSS @O2 it’s actually awful now if it wasn’t already before i didn’t think it could get any worse, miss the days of the free greggs hot drink and pizza every week 🥲 really got me through my uni days
