Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Bolton and nearby locations:
-
Jacqualine Kennedy (@17jkennedy) reported from Bryn, EnglandIt’s already been said but @o2 it’s a disgrace - early access to Peter Kay tickets - no chance, now sold out - O2 customers were NEVER getting priority ……
-
DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported from Manchester, England@O2 @purpledolphins7 They didn't help me. They didn't apply the increase in speed. In fact they said I could have 1gig for £30 extraper month. False advertising and liars!
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, EnglandHello @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?
-

I'll be terminating my contract in a month if nothing happens ASAP been years now literally dead spots where nothing works
-
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?
-
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.

Ruben E Tita (@ruben_tita) reported@O2 @GooglePlay How can one obtain the correlation ID for transactions that are fraudulent? I am tired of being based between the customer support of both, with neither providing actual support. It’s completely unacceptable.
-
Asim (@asimeone3000) reportedHi, trying to add hbo max tnt sports subscription. The app and live chat is driving me mad. Need some help please @O2
-
Sarah H (@SarahWM45) reportedOne week later and we still haven’t got a response from @O2 about a measly £185! Not even a drop in the ocean to O2. We are only leaving the contract early because we have had no O2 signal for near 2 years. We should not have to pay @MartinSLewis !! No response from O2!
-
Joyboy 🌞 (@hxlds) reported@O2 @TheO2 your speakers work just fine, please turn it down a bit! Didn’t come to a concert to leave deaf
-
𝕁𝕠𝕣𝕕𝕪 (@garynetchells) reportedWhat is it with the infrastructure of mobile networks in the UK when you can get a signal - at all on a train?! Why is that? Why in 2026 with a digital generation can I not access an email on a train? It’s ridiculous @O2 @VodafoneUK @EE
-
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
-
Aaron (@aaroncikaya) reportedAbsolutely awful customer service! 😡 @O2
-
John Melling (@jmellling1895) reportedWhyvhave you closed my complaint when it hasn't been resolved? @O2
-
Andrew (the *****) (@Andrewislington) reported@O2:Our network’s slow because the entire country won’t stop doomscrolling. Ideas? Mel B: Sorted. I’ll pre-record a load of painfully awkward messages telling people to put the phone down and touch grass… then we’ll just rebrand the lag as our brand-new “Scroll Stopper” feature
-
Gem🧣 (@gems_endgame) reportedIn the @O2 store to collect an online order. Every member of staff is dealing with complex CS queries and I’ve waited now 15mins to even get a hello and still not served. I thought that’s what calling o2 was for. Absolutely diabolical service.
