    @O2 why is your signal in Manchester so, so ****?!

  • Chris_Mr_T
    Chris Thompson (@Chris_Mr_T) reported from Chorley, England

    Hi @O2 we’ve been in Blackpool most of the day and have little or no signal until we were leaving. Do you have a known issue, a lack of cell towers or something? We’ve been half a dozen times this year and it’s always the same on 3 different phones.

  • 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??

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

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

  • Matt_Aspden

    @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

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

    @O2 Also sorry - but what’s the point in telling me to use a network checker if you don’t accept the results of the checker? That’s literally your app I’m using and it’s giving me terrible results.

    @shafterjay @O2 Now we're paying good money for no service

  • 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.

  • CA_Speaky
    Craig (@CA_Speaky) reported from Wigan, England

    @WAFCWill @O2 Exactly the same mate… whether it’s in Wigan , Blackpool , Manchester or Liverpool. Always shocking service. Hardly any signal !! Poor service

  • 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?

  • 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

  • JMcKnighty
    ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported from Manchester, England

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

  • 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 !!

  • tudge1988
    Reg Hollis (@tudge1988) reported from Bolton, England

    @B0LT0NBEAR @OfficialBWFC @O2 That's not the club thats 02 downgrading the signal in all areas of bolton

  • Josh_Deegan

    @BigLouComedy @O2 100% Gonna try the general sale on Saturday. Don't hold much hope but you never know

  • elgobsucram
    Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported 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

  • laticsian
    Ian Gee (@laticsian) reported from Chorley, England

    @O2 You've had a ****** stinker there haven't you. Website down all day for your #O2Priority. Gigs and Tours have allowed people to buy their tickets while your shitshow has allowed 1000's to miss out on tickets. Bravo!

  • 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?

  • kellyvmckeown
    Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 when are you gonna allow people to get back into the priority app this tickets thing has been a right **** show

  • ecgdave
    Dave Johnson (@ecgdave) reported from Edenfield, England

    @O2 hello upgraded my phone last week and submitted a sim swap request that's still not been actioned in over 24hrs is there an issue?

  • ajgbarnes
    Andrew Barnes (@ajgbarnes) reported

    @O2 Just awful, have a travel bolt on, valid for another 20+ days, bill on new cycle and NO WAY of seeing how much data is left now. Too scared to go over limit with data roaming as you'll charge me a fortune. Not good enough.

  • NazRahimi
    Naz Rahimi (@NazRahimi) reported

    @O2 you won’t let me log in to cancel my account, you are fraudulently taking my money while not letting me log in on desktop or my phone. You said you’d call me to allow me to cancel and it’s been a month. Now you say you can’t call me. I do not live in England. LET ME CANCEL.

    Whats point of having an app if it doesnt work @O2

  • overgrownmillie
    millie (@overgrownmillie) reported

    @O2 tell me how I'm supposed to make an online claim about my stolen iPhone when every time I try and use the link it comes up with error 401 unauthorised. What is my £15 a month actually doing if I can't access this ****?????

  • needymusiclover
    тαѕнα|мєт мαє мυℓℓєя (@needymusiclover) reported

    @O2 The issue is that when you google the number it’s coming up as legitimate o2 insurance. The thing that made me suspicious was that insurance department wouldn’t call to tell me my sim was getting disconnected as there’s different departments.

  • Stacearoo
    Stacey (@Stacearoo) reported

    @O2 why on earth is it IMPOSSIBLE to sign in?!?! I have never found something so ridiculously difficult!

  • mufcchatter
    MUFC Chatter (@mufcchatter) reported

    @O2 PLEASE HELP! I found out today that I have a CCJ on my file from O2 from 2024. This relates to a bundled SIM with a Virgin Broadband contract which was cancelled before it was set up due to credit. The O2 sim was supposed to be cancelled to but it wasn't!

    @lestereverton80 @O2 Same the signal everywhere is shite

    @O2 It started working at 10:05. Unfortunately the venue I want isnt doing VIP in the presale after all that! Thanks for your help anyway.
