    20 years with @O2 and this will be my last contract with them come September the staff in the Blackburn store need a lesson in salesmanship when sat in front of a customer looking down at their phone texting is not a great way of convincing people to stay with the network

    @O2 why is it IMPOSSIBLE to speak yo somebody about your crappy service & non existent network????? £50 per month for NO SERVICE AT ALL for almost 12 months ! That's £600 shocking company!!

  • 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

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

  • 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??

  • 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

  • _hayleighhxo
    Hayleigh Cross 🌷 (@_hayleighhxo) reported from Haydock, England

    Spending 30 mins on the phone to @O2 for them to do nothing because they have to wait till the issues are resolved. Is there a number I can call to make a complaint?

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hey - I have checked the guide. It’s not my device as it worked 100% better on a recent trip to France. It’s not the environment as this is something I experience everywhere (in Leicester, in Manchester, on trains, at festivals) - but your signal checker says I have good 4G.

    @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 👍

    Dave (@_DaveCross_) reported

    Dear @O2 - your CS chat function is as hopeless as my 4/5G reception…And having your rep close it without resolving my issue is a tad suboptimal. Coverage for Leics/Northants is abysmal Even without a crystal ball, I can see @EE in my future

  • Rocky_Horror17

    @O2 Spent over an hour on the phone, can't speak to anyone in the UK. Shocking customer service.

    @O2 It’s been almost 24 hours and this still isn’t resolved. Please fix this before I issue a chargeback with my bank

    @O2 You are extremely rude and bad, and all you give the customer are lie promises.

  • 4peterborough
    🇬🇧 Andy🇬🇧 (@4peterborough) reported

    The service I've received from @O2 absolutely disgusting trying to sort an issue and speaking to someone it was very difficult to understand which makes it more frustrating one that talk too fast with a heavy accent.

  • esnw33430
    G (@esnw33430) reported

    @valuemanmatt @O2 @Joff_L They decided its fair for you to pay through the nose so other "new customers" have a deal. Like many companies, there is no customer loyalty, they want the maximum money out of you for minimum service. Time to port your number to giffgaff, same o2 network and less money.

    I feel like I'm on a complaining streak but here goes: This one is for @O2 I have been a loyal customer since the switch-over of Virgin Media customers. I barely use data. So, I've been more than happy with my £9.73/month tariff. The data is unimportant. Unlimited calls/texts is

    Basic with Life (@Joses_World) reported

    I’ve been with @EE for over 20 years, I have 4 lines and I’ve never been late with my bill. So why is it that @O2 and @VodafoneUK have better deals for me then #ee #eeupgrade? Where’s the loyalty?

  • HannatuGentles
    Hannatu Gentles (@HannatuGentles) reported

    @O2 what is going on with your network and service levels! I have not been able to use mobile data (calls or texts) for 6 days now. After an endless loop with your automated call centre I finally managed to speak to someone on Tuesday morning who assured me the issues would be…
