  • 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

  • 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 aboard and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

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

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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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

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

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

  • 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 ?!

  • 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?

  • leannt1984 Leann (@leannt1984) reported from Salford, England

    Hi @O2 I’m both a virgin media customer and have a pay monthly sim with O2 and i am struggling to sign up to Volt! Help!

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

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

  • 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

  • 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 😡😡

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • RidingWithCJ RidingWithCJ (@RidingWithCJ) reported

    @GarethTurpin @O2 Disgusting, already making horrific amounts of profit but just can’t help yourselves. As long as the fat cat share holders get what they want aye? A hike that high and the reasoning are both utter crap. Pathetic corporate greed.

  • turnerchris turnerchris 🏳️‍⚧️ (@turnerchris) reported

    So @O2 are increasing their airtime tariff by 13.4% + the regular 3.9%, total of 17.3%. And @GarethTurpin has written personally to tell me! How can this be justified or help people struggling with the cost of living? Yes, it's within their T&C but ethical? #CostOfLivingCrisis

  • Kev_Kenton Keven Kenton (@Kev_Kenton) reported

    @o2 13.4% + 3.9% on a network that if I go outside where more than 5 people are you do not get service, absolute joke! Hurry up contact and expire!

  • b_nockbhoy83 SuperFurryBrazza 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@b_nockbhoy83) reported

    17.5% increase in my @O2 bill from April. Go **** yourselves ya **** turpin robbing bastards!!! #o2

  • elizabethAVFC Lizzi 🦁 (@elizabethAVFC) reported

    @jodielouiseart @O2 So glad my contract is up in April and I can move. Service is a joke.

  • jujoethekiller Jujoe (@jujoethekiller) reported

    7 weeks for I've been waiting for a refund of @O2 and yet still nothing, now thats what I call world leading customer service

  • Sam_McK_88 Sam M (@Sam_McK_88) reported

    @Burnside_5 @LifeByStills @O2 Trouble is pretty much all major providers are doing the same thing, although there are a few which choose not to. I do question the logic of people signing a contract which allows this and then moaning when it happens though - you had a choice before signing.

  • JamesBellx James Bell (@JamesBellx) reported

    Just had an email from @o2 telling me my contract is going up nearly 17%....but if im a new customer i can get exactly the same airtime contract for 25% less than my current (yes CURRENT) tariff cost. Ive been with O2 for almost 15 years, good to see loyalty is being rewarded 🤬

  • whatphilsaid phil.i.am (@whatphilsaid) reported

    hilarious that @O2 tell me the cost of calls/texts going up by around £60pa to cover the cost of powering their network when half the time i can't use my phone because their network is so bad. can't wait for my contact to end so i can leave them after over 10 years as a customer.

  • CourtierTristan tris (@CourtierTristan) reported

    @O2 Just got a lovely message from you saying you are going to increase my bill. But you can't even provide a proper service in Devon I get a message every week saying you're still looking in to our area fault. May be sort out your problems before you increase my bill.
