  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Gsd1Omara
    Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 why is the signal in #Middleton so poor??? We have 4 phones with you & it’s shocking signal. I know loads of people wanting to change supplier #notgood #sortitout

    Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

    Kinda wonder why I use @O2 when their mobile signal in central Manchester is barely functioning. Continually timing out, drops connection 😡

  • MattyHenno
    Matt Henno (@MattyHenno) reported from Appley Bridge, England

    @O2 How are customers buying them when there’s no way of accessing your app or your browser version? You’re advertising a service that you’re not providing. Answers please

  • AbiClarey
    Abi (@AbiClarey) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 I seem to never have any internet access anywhere, even when showing 4G nothing loads and no WhatsApp’s come through

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

    @O2 how do you get through to you for a pac code. Been ringing for an eternity and still waiting. It's as if you're ignoring the call so i'll have stay. pretty cr*p service from a main mobile provider. Let me guess #hgvshortageexcuse or #covidexcuse #notfitforourpose @Offcom

  • JacquiDarling
    Jacqueline (@JacquiDarling) reported from Bolton, England

    @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.

  • 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?

  • DAbrahamNewman
    Dominic Abraham-Newman (@DAbrahamNewman) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 as a last resort I am tweeting following extremely poor support from your contact centre who I am not getting anywhere with despite numerous calls. I need urgent support with a query which has left me £119 out of pocket following fraudulent activity. Please contact me asap!

  • DamonHoward17
    Damon Howard (@DamonHoward17) reported from Abram, England

    @O2 worst customer service in the world! Absolutely useless!

  • Andy_TheGrouch
    Andy (@Andy_TheGrouch) reported from Bryn, England

    @O2 no chance i’m renewing, genuinely shite network coverage, cant make call when driving without it sounding like someone is under water & call failing. Mast been down in Ashton for over a week. Phone basically useless. Troubleshooting links are pointless - not good enough.

  • 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 ?!

  • 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?

  • HHBarn

  • 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?

    @mhewson_MCH @O2 Switch to Tesco, I did it as soon as they announced the ridiculous rise. Same network, but way cheaper and you don't get bombarded with the ridiculous O2 Priority stuff.

  • darrangilpin
    ⚡️ DarrAn ⚡️ (@darrangilpin) reported

    @comingupstorrie @O2 It's an absolute joke. I've been in the same boat since Friday. You'd think it was a simple fix.

  • beckieebabee_x
    • B e c k i e e • 🐝 (@beckieebabee_x) reported

    @huckleberrydan @mhewson_MCH @O2 Exactly the same here ! Data is just as bad even if got some phone signal. In a city can’t use the maps because it’s rubbish! My partner has moved to EE. & in going to follow suit if I can find a decent deal!

  • GregDawes38
    Greg Dawes 🚁🚗✈️ (@GregDawes38) reported

    @mhewson_MCH @NickOresme @O2 Tesco mobile also piggyback O2 network

  • JohnLoughran_
    John Loughran (@JohnLoughran_) reported

    Fair play to @O2 Made the move from giving them £48 a month to £20 on a sim only Signal and internet is now totally dogshite. For record I’ve been in multiple cities before you ask me to check. Bandits

  • MarQusRomelle
    MarQus Romelle (@MarQusRomelle) reported

    @O2 Yes I confirm. I seriously hope o2 are able to solve this issue because it shouldn’t be made so difficult, jumping through hoops and a bunch of loading screens with portal errors, to do something as simple as making a payment; it’s incredibly anti-consumer.

  • Limey31649474
    Limey (@Limey31649474) reported

    @andrejpwalker @O2 Me too, it’s total garbage. Literally didn’t work, how TF can they not know. Once they pull their finger out and sort it I’ll be going elsewhere.

  • DeeOgunbiyi
    Dee (@DeeOgunbiyi) reported

    @O2 It is absolutely unresolved and who marked it as resolved should be severely reprimanded. I raised a complaint (now two after this weekend). I *** promised a call back one week ago, and then today. Neither has happened so complaint mot resolved. So the whole matter is unresolved

    @TicketmasterUK @O2 priority @shedseven link not working. Just sends me to TM site saying happening now.

    @O2 I wouldn’t recommend staying anywhere near this network unless you speak Bengali
