  • 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?

  • psychomania666 PsychoMania (@psychomania666) reported from Burnley, England

    @O2 Signal is just garbage in Burnley centre, has been for years on many different devices. 5G is needed ASAP.

  • liammcdon97 Liam McDonald (@liammcdon97) reported from Stockport, England

    £40 a month for @O2 and can't even get any signal majority of the time. Absolute jokers.

    @O2 Yes it says 4G, I have no idea what’s going on. Is there an issue certain areas possibly?

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported from Stockport, England

    @AndyOxon @O2 @virginmedia I've been waiting five months. Complaint gone external now!

  • kea11y Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

  • howierice Howard Rice (@howierice) reported from Sale, England

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

  • franlatics27 Fran Edwards (@franlatics27) reported from Garswood, England

    @O2 can you refund me my monthly payment as all the masts in wigan are down and have been for weeks....thanks

  • JonnyGravel jonnytaylor (@JonnyGravel) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 really poor customer service today when trying to open a new account #exasperated

  • 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

  • dobirmiah ᴅᴏʙɪʀ ᴍɪᴀʜ 🐝 دوبر محمد مياه (@dobirmiah) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 I’ve not had access to the network all day, what’s going on? It would have been good to be notified of issues. Really not happy 😠 I’m due for an upgrade, might have to@consider switching to another network

  • markowens726 Mark Owens (@markowens726) reported from Bacup, England

    @O2 Unfortunately I can't change it on the Link because I'm unable to sign in to my account with an incorrect email address

  • AdnyNichols Andy Nichols (@AdnyNichols) reported from Horwich, England

    @O2 Hi i changed my contract with you last Wednesday and have been waiting for a delivery order reference KMM2134901340I15977L0KM. It has not arrived yet can you help please.

  • springviewer John Edgar (@springviewer) reported from Wigan, England

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

  • SteveVanDang Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported from Stockport, England

    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

  • 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?

  • 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 😡😡

  • violetibeh Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

  • sonnisamosa Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Hello, my data hasn’t worked since yesterday. I’ve reset the network settings and my phone. Any ideas?

    @O2 Is your signal down in Fowey?

  • SerenaMann69 Serena Kaur Mann 😈🇬🇧🇮🇳 (No DM'S) (@SerenaMann69) reported

    @O2 I cannot make calls or texts. It doesn't work wherever I seem to go. Your online customer service team are useless and don't seem to get this. I cannot call or text to obtain a simple PAC code and they/you won't generate one for me?????

  • SuzCEO Suzanne Horner (@SuzCEO) reported

    @O2 So, is the point of a DM to allow you to investigate my issue or is it merely to stop people highlighting the failures of O2 on social media 🤔#question

  • joebonthuys Joseph Bonthuys (@joebonthuys) reported

    @O2 I returned some AirPods back in March and am still waiting for the money to be refunded. Countless phone calls later and still without a penny. Customer service assure me they’ll sort it out & money will be with me and I’ve lost all confidence in getting it back now. Had enough!

  • Langtrams lawrie thomson (@Langtrams) reported

    @O2 help needed I have just topped up my phone but can't change the tariff and I can't get through to the live chat help

  • SerenaMann69 Serena Kaur Mann 😈🇬🇧🇮🇳 (No DM'S) (@SerenaMann69) reported

    @O2 @England Yeah be great if your network f**king worked. Don't ask me to DM you, you useless plebs!

  • rwurehman Rana W U Rehman (@rwurehman) reported

    @O2 Hahahaha, what a joke, your network is worse than 3’s, you can’t even make a phone call in Wimbledon village. Learn from EE
