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

  • Julio_Afonso522
    Julio Afonso 🇲🇿 🇵🇹 🇪🇺🇨🇭 (@Julio_Afonso522) reported from Manchester, England

    @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?

  • ShanRebec94
    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

    @O2 is your payment gateway down? Had several calls to pay my bill, but can’t seem to process and payment on My O2 app

  • 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 😡😡

  • clare_jeffs
    Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, England

    They told her they are affiliated with @O2 and apparently do not offer cooling off periods. How can they miss-sell to a vulnerable lady with a brain injury and not cancel it. @plandotcom DISGUSTING.

  • LucyLoopy86
    Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

    @O2 And you even txt me to ask me rate the experience with your staff .... HOW .... never got through !!

  • AbiClarey
    Abi (@AbiClarey) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 I seem to never have any internet access anywhere, even when showing 4G nothing loads and no WhatsApp’s come through

  • PerryClaire27
    Claire 🖤 (@PerryClaire27) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 sort your **** signal out, £70 a month for this bullshit

  • bluemoo17
    💙⚽️🐝Ellie Fitz🐝⚽️💙 (@bluemoo17) reported from Middleton, England

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

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

    @O2 why is the signal in #Middleton so poor??? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking signal. I know loads of people wanting to change supplier #notgood #sortitout

  • J0eH0lmes
    Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported 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?

  • TwoEyedGovernor
    Sherwin Clark-Assoon (@TwoEyedGovernor) reported from Manchester, England

    As soon as my contracts up @o2 it’ll be the last day you’ll ever get any money from me been with you guys for 10 years and you kick people down when they’re on their knees.

  • Hurstchris2102
    Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, England

    @carolyn_keenan @O2 @peterkay_co_uk Go directly through gigs and tours. Some more dates added later in 2023. I've just manged 2 get 2 for Sept 2023 in Manchester no problem.

  • gerwyn
    Gerwyn (@gerwyn) reported from Manchester, England

    @Allan2111272 @O2 It was so atrocious that their own network app couldn’t work

  • 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??

  • 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?

  • familyhomecook
    FAMILY HOME COOK (@familyhomecook) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 My data is not working. Unless I’m connected to Wi-Fi I cannot do any browsing. Is there an issue?

  • 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

  • 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

  • mattieroberts94
    Matt Roberts (@mattieroberts94) reported

    Hey @O2, what’s up with phone and 5G signal lately? Can’t make a phone call without sounding like a darlek, keeps cutting off when talking and nothing loads on the internet despite saying 5G and showing full signal?

  • londonlaraine
    Laraine Kempster (@londonlaraine) reported

    Beyond Disgusting and Disgraceful cus service. 3 days trying to sort out SIM NOT PROVISIONED.Just spent £17 on Landline and guess what? We'll call you within 3 days. If you're thinking of coming over to o2. Just DON'T @O2

  • EmmMurray211
    #BurnhamthefakePM #NeverLabour (@EmmMurray211) reported

    @O2 my daughter, stranded abroad with no phone after a theft, has received terrible service from you. Unless you can actually support her we will be cancelling our DD and making a complaint to @Ofcom. Good customer service is not rocket science!

  • Jes_Squirrell
    Jeremy Squirrell (@Jes_Squirrell) reported

    @wheat_daddy @O2 Could be the coms mast itself. We’ve had trouble with Vodafone signal for a few weeks, then all of a sudden we have got upgraded to 5G and a decent phone signal. Hopefully you’ll get the same soon? 🤞

  • BluesnJazzxx
    just me (@BluesnJazzxx) reported

    @mitchhirsty @O2 Yeah I figured that. Same issues on the website as well. I can’t pay my bill because I can’t access the app or website and I am not sitting for an hour on my phone whilst I wait to talk to someone.

  • J4God
    JaG (@J4God) reported

    @danjaydubya @mattstingray @O2 Me too. I’ve had some compensation for it but now on full tariff and worse than ever. Won’t load anything and on the odd occasion that it does, slow as. I’ve come to hate it.

  • lmclells90
    Lauren McLellan (@lmclells90) reported

    @o2 Now I am receiving threatening messages to say my account is going to be suspended, I owe additional charges and my credit rating will be affected. I am 6 days post partum and was v poorly giving birth having me rushed into hospital as an emergency. I do not need this.

  • KansasMax
    Max Kansas (@KansasMax) reported

    @O2 unbelievable that I cannot get help blocking my SIM after my phone was stolen. Please help me sort this out

  • ThatBloke0101
    Mr H (@ThatBloke0101) reported

    @O2 you claim you have the perfect connection..so why am I getting slow loading times for normal Web pages when in built up areas? Last week at Ashton Gate, Bristol. No signal. Right now, im in Weston-Super-Mare in a trading estate with a god awful signal.

  • mrs_nesl
    NESL (@mrs_nesl) reported

    @O2 I was only there for a day. Signal was so bad I couldn’t when check the status page. Appeared everywhere I went (near the promenade/football club) in Blackpool wouldn’t work. Was highly frustrating.
