  • 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

  • Hoban2105 Look at that Horse (@Hoban2105) reported from Burnley, England

    @O2 I need to speak to a customer service rep about my bill but cannot get through and the live chat cuts out. Please advise

  • emmabirdy Em (@emmabirdy) reported from Blackburn, England

    @O2 what’s going on with your network around the Bb2 area of blackburn? Had poor signal for several days but according to you you’ve either fixed it or there is no issues. #rubbish #needsignal

  • s7e7en SThomas (@s7e7en) reported from Manchester, England

    I have been with @Vodafoneuk for nearly 20years and they do say “if it’s not broken..” but my favourite saying is “better late than never” hello @O2 (re refund service) when my phone contract is up!

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

  • class_voice Voice Of middle class (@class_voice) reported

    @O2 guys you really need to work@on your customer services, I have been trying to get a number swapped since last 4 weeks and just been on call for last 45 minutes, explaining the problem, repeating personal details to 4 person and could not take it further…sad

  • JessicaR0byn Jess Dinmore (@JessicaR0byn) reported

    @O2 I’ve also tried all the classic resetting my phone stuff, including resetting network settings and now I have no 3G or any sign of data at all

  • MrsDonnie_W Lesley Coups (@MrsDonnie_W) reported

    @O2 Yes I've rebooted my phone I've also been on the 02 status checker and this its saying there's an issue with the mast, I can't even call 02 as my phone says "Network Not Available" can you find out what's happening please, thanks

  • emma87_ ~emma~ (@emma87_) reported

    @tsamson2904 @O2 Know what u mean, I've been a fair few road collisions this week. They hang up pretty quickly when u tell them it was deliberate because u hunted down the cold caller and hit them

  • Daniel_Lyddon Daniel Lyddon (@Daniel_Lyddon) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    (1/3) Sad to say that @O2 are now trying to charge me for a service never used, when I cancelled a mis-sold contract within the 14-day cooling-off period. Almost two months later they're now saying they're going to charge me a late payment fee, plus the bill...

  • Travel_Papi - (@Travel_Papi) reported

    @O2 Thanks for this, all looks good. 2 more questions, what’s the coverage is like in other countries. I haven’t had any issues with Vodafone (been to 20 countries so far) & also what happens if you guys decided to reintroduce roaming charges after I got the contract? @VodafoneUK

  • jxmes_v jxmes (@jxmes_v) reported

    @O2 It’s not my phone or my sim! 🙄🙄🙄🙄 it’s your AWFUL coverage! I’m on tour around the entirety of the UK and your 4G consistently drops out down to 1 bar or if I’m lucky goes to 3G. Just ridiculous I’m paying all this money and i can barely use my phone outside of WiFi #****

  • thefithsunfalls AnAngryDad (@thefithsunfalls) reported

    @O2 I was speaking to them. 7 days to get a phone out. Told literally everyday, it'll be tomorrow. And every day told there's an issue. Advised an xs is on the way, because the SE is out of stock. Then told an SE is being sent. Still never received a a notification for delivery

  • ClaudiusAlexan7 Claudius Alexander 🇹🇹 (@ClaudiusAlexan7) reported

    @O2 hey o2, I occasionally use my mobile billing to make payments on my PlayStation, but for some reason that's not working at the moment, has it been stopped on my account?
