  • JonNutten Jon Nutten (@JonNutten) reported from Salford, England

    Think it’s time to go to @ThreeUK well over a decade with @O2 / @o2businessuk and they not really fussed about loyalty, customer service. The line used ‘it is what it is’ when I spoke to them about my contract options. 😂😂

  • gazmax01 Gary Leeson (@gazmax01) reported from Stockport, England

    I feel like throwing my iPhone and Apple Watch out the ******* window 6 weeks my problem has been going on and all you tell me is I will have another update in a week and proceed to tell me you rang me yesterday liesssssss sort it or I am moving Vodafone @O2

  • Andfie Andrew Fielding (@Andfie) reported from Bolton, England

    Delighted to announce this household is now an @O2 free zone. Finally rid of their shocking customer service and outrageous roaming fees. #ikeepmyword

  • Claire_journo Claire Hannah (@Claire_journo) reported from Wigan, England

    Postman been. Bill for an iPad with @O2, phone with @O2 phone with Vodafone and a letter from Virgin to tell me my data has been breached. No shit Sherlock. Had enough of this now. #IdentityTheft

  • kates2091 Kate Elliott (@kates2091) reported from Salford, England

    The problem with @O2 marketing messages will always be that my reaction to them is to swear at my phone and say ‘It’s not even possible for me to have used up my data yet’. And then I don’t read them. #ThoughtOfTheDay #TuesdayThoughts

  • jayymieemcd Jamie Mcdonald (@jayymieemcd) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 still 100% sure you are still the worst network! Yet i still pay a ridiculous amount of money for a service i very rarely get!!!!

  • poppymarello Poppy Marello (@poppymarello) reported from Manchester, England

    The only network where it's impossible to get signal in Manchester City Centre @O2

  • Kimbow21 Mrs K E (@Kimbow21) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 Hi, yes I’ve spoken to someone but it’s still not sorted out . I’ve to ring back again which is awful. I was sent the wrong phone I sent it back Monday and it’s still not been received . I paid my last phone off so I could upgrade . I’ve been billed fo the wrong phone as well .

  • oneladyshow Charlie (@oneladyshow) reported from Salford, England

    @MDOG_Manchester @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK I have been with them around 15 years too and I can’t even message people sometimes in the city centre. They offer absolutely no help whatsoever just same old bullshit replies

  • JohnAHallam66 John Hallam (@JohnAHallam66) reported from Manchester, England

    @o2. You just cut me off. Monday, you've used 80% of your data. Ok, 6 days to go. Fine. Thursday, cut off. Time to change provider, after many years. Really piss poor service.

  • DidymusBrush Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported from Manchester, England

    Got tickets for Skunk Anansie via @O2 Priority but they are etickets with no physical counterpart. Presale elsewhere has physical tickets for same price, and I can't help but wish I'd known about that one instead. I have almost all my ticket stubs for the last 2 decades!

  • EllieLouisaaa Ellie Louisa 🧜🏻‍♀️🦩💫 (@EllieLouisaaa) reported from Hindley, England

    @O2 spoke to at least 3 people a day in a week and my phone still isn’t working. very unhappy with your service and that every single person I have spoken to has told me something different. I don’t trust you as a company and im praying that they release me from contract #OverO2

  • Shell_Boudin86 Michelle Boudin (@Shell_Boudin86) reported from Bury, England

    @JoJo_P_87 @O2 Not that I ever win them lol but would be nice to actually have something around the north west if I was to win .. Although never had an #O2Surprise either and been a customer 15yrs lol

  • suemcgran Sue McGranaghan (@suemcgran) reported from Manchester, England

    @oneladyshow @O2 That’s true - friends I have who are on other networks don’t have this problem so not sure it’s because it’s busy x

  • marykate100 Kate Taylor (@marykate100) reported from Appley Bridge, England

    Surely this is not the kind of customer service you would receive from other brands such as @o2

  • Matt_Aspden NOW 40 (@Matt_Aspden) reported from Bury, England

    @O2 I have found out there are issues with the local mast causing outage.

  • MDOG_Manchester Manchester Dining Offers (@MDOG_Manchester) reported from Manchester, England

    @oneladyshow @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK Honestly, couldn’t even send this tweet in city centre if I was on O2 Something about a mast being down. For three years. Simple reason is, they don’t have enough coverage here so they lie about it.

  • TimPartridge2 {{{Tim}}} (@TimPartridge2) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please cancel contract for my number. That’s you notified.

  • Alfie_KC RIP Alfie (@Alfie_KC) reported from Bryn, England

    Never been discouraged from upgrading my phone before, perhaps @O2 know something i don't

  • sophielordx1 Sophie🙋‍♀️ (@sophielordx1) reported from Bury, England

    Mad how i pay 80 quid a month for a phone on @O2 that never ****** works. Full signal and 4g but yet i have no internet connection🤔🤔 silly *****

  • jimmyll04218854 jimmy lloyd (@jimmyll04218854) reported

    @O2 Yep same problem we’ve had from start. Seems crazy that you can sell a contract for a 4G (even 5G) phone, then issue one that doesn’t provide those services but still expect to have the (unfulfilled) contract honoured. For context had to buy a PAYG @EE handset to work on move

  • ILLESTABOUT WILLIAM WARD (@ILLESTABOUT) reported

    Just been Into Greggs to collect a breakfast roll and was refund because the scanner was not working. @O2, not very good service as I could buy one but not able to get one on the app. Leeds Headrow😡.@GreggsOfficial

  • JudgeDewie Alex (@JudgeDewie) reported

    @O2 Someone must have an estimate as to when works will be done. I am having to pay for an EE PAYG sim as I work from home most of the time+need to take calls. There is no reception at all. I’m going to have to transfer to another network. I was assuming it would only be a week or 2

  • solitairefan Pam Parkinson💙 (@solitairefan) reported

    @Shireen_5 @O2 Have never received one and wouldn't know how I can try. O2 customer for 18 months now

  • rachael__coutts Rachael (@rachael__coutts) reported

    @ChloeMcfee @O2 And they replied to me saying “dm us like we’ve asked” honestly how ******* rude is that hahahaha fuming

  • paulthemessiah paul walker (@paulthemessiah) reported

    @Shireen_5 @O2 I never get these

  • MarsKathy Kathy (@MarsKathy) reported from Wakefield, England

    @O2 hi. Is there a problem with the QR code or number today for the Greggs offer? Local Greggs had error code so no breakfast roll!!

  • sarahbarloww Sarahhh (@sarahbarloww) reported

    Curious.. @O2 .. I have a 5G contract yet I never see 5G on my network, only ever 4G?? What’s the reason for this???

  • jimmyll04218854 jimmy lloyd (@jimmyll04218854) reported

    @O2 I’ve done this about 15 times. It’s multiple postcodes. It’s not specific to one location. You can’t fix it. What would be ideal is if you could release us from our contract so we can go back to @EE or @VodafoneUK who have provided us with much better coverage in the past.

  • ChrisJWilkinson Chris Wilkinson (@ChrisJWilkinson) reported

    @Honey_Heidi360 @GreggsOfficial @O2 Same issue here - and another chap at the same store.
