  • 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!

  • TourdeMancBloke
    Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone got any suggestions on how to get a pac code from @O2 it's next to impossible to get through. Surely this is against @Offcom code of conduct? A comms network company that won't take customer calls!?! Anyone else having this problem? #ukmobile

    @AntStephen I’m with @O2 and it’s garbage inside the ground

  • eagleeyedferret
    Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes the original problem is still not resolved. Can you DM me please to sort it out as I’m not wasting any more time with your shocking overseas call centres. Have you not realised by now they are a false economy?

  • TourdeMancBloke
    Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Too little too late @o2 it shouldn't take you 90mins to answer query and your chat was unavailable... I'll go to another provider who offers a better service #notfitforourpose

  • eagleeyedferret
    Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 2/2 both occasions the call centres were noisy. Call centre operative didn’t speak very god English. Both operatives complaining their systems were slow or not working at all and putting me on hold for long periods.

    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?

  • malllmallll
    Mario Alghatta (@malllmallll) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 terrible service from you guys today. Thanks for the inconvenience...

  • 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 😡😡

    @O2 known issue affecting quality of calls and 4G reduced to 3 G. Spoke with your Helpdesk who are aware of issue in BL3 area but no fix date. Why am i paying for a service i cant use. Been told to use wifi or hotspot. Been happening fir weeks now.

  • chrisrogan
    Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, England

    Pee'd off at @GreggsOfficial and @O2 three weeks in a row with priority debacle. One week over charged, last week paid for my own this week walked out. Staff not trained in the offer and Greggs not responding to customer service emails. More Greggs issue than o2.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @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 ****?????

  • ArcherImproving

    @O2 I keep getting calls from people claiming to be from o2. When I query why they keep calling they hang up!

    @O2 can I just say your agent I have dealt with on live chat was terrible tried to give me a deal (30gb for fold 8 at 71.99) when unlimited was 66.99 then told me I can’t switch up until 23rd (more than 11 months) I then checked out on your website with what I wanted, terrible

    @willmcgugan @O2 when they have too many customers, they stop caring. not only mobile operators, all of them service providers.

  • Frugal_ways
    Deano... (@Frugal_ways) reported

    @O2 Pretty much, yes. Whenever I'm in an asda it's the same, although I suspect that's asda blocking signal as their in house wifi works (opening their own website in the browser window)

  • dhegartymusic
    declan hegarty music (@dhegartymusic) reported

    @O2 This is not new.I'm fed up with this topic.i feel the only outcome is for you to ask your supervisors to acknowledge this poor service and stop given me some scrip.I get it.Hear it .know it .But alas, O2 is still rubbish. Please only respond with useful information...No script.

  • BoredGeezer69
    JustaBoredGeezer (@BoredGeezer69) reported

    @O2 How crap is your MY O2 App I've been trying to upgrade my daughters phone (the contract is in my name) ALL DAMNED MORNING all I've consistently had is "oops something has gone wrong" I've had enough and after being with O2 for probably over 20 yrs I'm leaving

  • mufcchatter
    MUFC Chatter (@mufcchatter) reported

    @O2 Please get back to me urgently with a phone number or email address, someone I can speak to who has access to the systems from 2022-24, who can see this case history and help me. I am shocked right now that this is happening to me from one of the biggest companies in the UK.
