  Hello @O2 is there a problem with the network? My calls aren’t going through.

• 
  James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported 18 minutes ago 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?

  Absolute 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

  Welp @O2 support was great tellin me no better deals,tho new customers get massively better deals & the signal in my area should be good 🤷. #Pac requested, got a @VOXI_UK Sim for half the price, better signal, more perks. 16 years brand loyalty with o2, was worth squat to o2.cya

  Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported 33 minutes ago 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?

• 
  DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported 36 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @O2 @purpledolphins7 They didn't help me. They didn't apply the increase in speed. In fact they said I could have 1gig for £30 extraper month. False advertising and liars!

  @O2 Hi can I have some help please, it’s not allowing me to send you a DM.

  Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported 49 minutes ago 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

• 
  Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported 54 minutes ago 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 why is your signal in Manchester so, so ****?!

• 
  Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported 59 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @O2 my phone is saying no sim so I have zero signal or data to call or text you. Any chance of getting someone to give me a ring to sort out a new sim card?

  @O2 hey what's going on with the data coverage....had none to very slow the past 5 hours or so ???

• 
  Sarah H (@SarahWM45) reported 8 minutes ago

  Well apparently if @o2 can provide no service, you still need to pay for it. We have both stuck with and paid for a service that does not work for 2 years and the repayment from O2 is to charge us for leaving. Been a customer for 10 years. @MartinSLewis

  @O2 my signal lately and Internet on my phone seems to be really poor and slow the last few weeks!!

• 
  Cody (@CodyButton77) reported 17 minutes ago

  @O2 STILL charging me for a phone contract that I finished payments for in December 2025. Cancelled the contract as shown on the @O2 website and still being billed monthly even after calling customer service 3 times. Very disappointed after being a loyal customer for many years.

  @MissWittank @O2 That’s a breach of contract by O2 so you should be free to terminate your contract without penalty
