  • marykate100 Kate Taylor (@marykate100) reported from Appley Bridge, England

    Surely this is not the kind of customer service you would receive from other brands such as @o2

  • oneladyshow Charlie (@oneladyshow) reported from Salford, England

    @MDOG_Manchester @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK I have been with them around 15 years too and I can’t even message people sometimes in the city centre. They offer absolutely no help whatsoever just same old bullshit replies

  • Matt_Aspden NOW 40 (@Matt_Aspden) reported from Bury, England

    @O2 I have found out there are issues with the local mast causing outage.

  • JohnAHallam66 John Hallam (@JohnAHallam66) reported from Manchester, England

    @o2. You just cut me off. Monday, you've used 80% of your data. Ok, 6 days to go. Fine. Thursday, cut off. Time to change provider, after many years. Really piss poor service.

  • canders_daniels Chris 'Anderson Daniels' (@canders_daniels) reported from Bury, England

    @O2 Unfortunately I don't have access to my O2 phone, and when I called customer services they kindly gave me an unmanned phone number

  • emilystella_ Emily (@emilystella_) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 Thanks. The problem is apparently our line is faulty and no one can come out to fix it. So it would need to be router that doesn’t need a line 👎🏽

  • zakdunstan zak dunstan (@zakdunstan) reported from Westhoughton, England

    Really want to upgrade my @SamsungMobile s7 edge with Vodafone to a @HuaweiMobile p30 or p30 pro on my @VodafoneUK contract but they're so expensive compared to @O2 :( 7 YEARS a customer, and no deals to be had

  • JonNutten Jon Nutten (@JonNutten) reported from Salford, England

    Think it’s time to go to @ThreeUK well over a decade with @O2 / @o2businessuk and they not really fussed about loyalty, customer service. The line used ‘it is what it is’ when I spoke to them about my contract options. 😂😂

  • Mr_Ricker79 Ricky Gwilliam (@Mr_Ricker79) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hey there.. it’s been 2 days now and my number port to you guys still hasn’t completed. Number changed in my account but have no signal. Yes, I have turned phone on and off. Thanks

  • Claire_journo Claire Hannah (@Claire_journo) reported from Wigan, England

    Postman been. Bill for an iPad with @O2, phone with @O2 phone with Vodafone and a letter from Virgin to tell me my data has been breached. No shit Sherlock. Had enough of this now. #IdentityTheft

  • kates2091 Kate Elliott (@kates2091) reported from Salford, England

    The problem with @O2 marketing messages will always be that my reaction to them is to swear at my phone and say ‘It’s not even possible for me to have used up my data yet’. And then I don’t read them. #ThoughtOfTheDay #TuesdayThoughts

  • poppymarello Poppy Marello (@poppymarello) reported from Manchester, England

    The only network where it's impossible to get signal in Manchester City Centre @O2

  • MDOG_Manchester Manchester Dining Offers (@MDOG_Manchester) reported from Manchester, England

    @oneladyshow @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK Honestly, couldn’t even send this tweet in city centre if I was on O2 Something about a mast being down. For three years. Simple reason is, they don’t have enough coverage here so they lie about it.

  • EllieLouisaaa Ellie Louisa 🧜🏻‍♀️🦩💫 (@EllieLouisaaa) reported from Hindley, England

    @O2 spoke to at least 3 people a day in a week and my phone still isn’t working. very unhappy with your service and that every single person I have spoken to has told me something different. I don’t trust you as a company and im praying that they release me from contract #OverO2

  • jayymieemcd Jamie Mcdonald (@jayymieemcd) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 still 100% sure you are still the worst network! Yet i still pay a ridiculous amount of money for a service i very rarely get!!!!

  • Alfie_KC RIP Alfie (@Alfie_KC) reported from Bryn, England

    Never been discouraged from upgrading my phone before, perhaps @O2 know something i don't

  • twojayart Will Stevenson (@twojayart) reported from Manchester, England

    I will be leaving this network if this goes ahead @O2

  • PhilPud Phil Pudney (@PhilPud) reported from Salford, England

    @Fozzler90 @O2 I’ve had this all morning mate, ask what I need help with, then just say ‘bye’

  • DWATKINSON Daniel Watkinson (@DWATKINSON) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Hi, I don’t mind the wait time but when u try and ring through I get told my enquiry can’t be dealf with anybody and then then you hang up the phone

  • DidymusBrush Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported from Manchester, England

    Got tickets for Skunk Anansie via @O2 Priority but they are etickets with no physical counterpart. Presale elsewhere has physical tickets for same price, and I can't help but wish I'd known about that one instead. I have almost all my ticket stubs for the last 2 decades!

    @O2 is there a reason why my phone/data signal is virtually non-existent whenever I visit Perth city centre?? #NoBars #0G

  • garytelling Gary Telling (@garytelling) reported

    @O2 What does joining with @virginmedia mean to me? Mobile bill going up (or down)? Virgin taking over my plan?

  • TomLey11 Tom Ley (@TomLey11) reported

    With @O2 for 12 years, received no bonus/increases/discounts in tariff or service plan, left last month for @giffgaff - monthly entitlement same, no contract and half the price. Also, they've already added data to my plan after 1 month. Tidy. (NB: GiffGaff runs on 02, go figure)

    @virginmedia @O2 Guess what? My VM Gigabit broadband is offline... AGAIN!! VM website says there's no issue at my address.

  • oldmanbodypop Martin Warren 🤘💉😷 (@oldmanbodypop) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia If this means that my phone is about to become a Virgin mobile then I will be leaving. Worst customer service ever, not for me thanks.
