-
Byron (@ConnorByron2) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England@O2 I have pretty much zero chance of getting 4G/3G anywhere I go in the country being on your network. Why? Paying for service I do not get
-
PIE: Pursuing Individual Excellence (@pieuksocial) reported from Stockport, EnglandThis Christmas, @O2 is donating data to those who need it. For every tweet using #O2DataPledge this Giving Tuesday, they'll donate even more data to the National Databank. Tap below to tweet your support 👇
-
Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, EnglandAbsolute shambles from @O2 with the pre sale of Peter Kay tickets. I managed to get some through gigs & tours but no checks so could have bought them even if I wasn't an O2 customer. Pointless having a pre sale if its open to all #peterkay #O2Priority
-
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
-
Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported from Urmston, England@O2 3/3 only conclusion I could reach is that your call centre staff are under pressure to make more calls and now routinely disconnect customer calls after a period of making no progress. What do you think??
-
Rob 🇪🇺🏴 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England@O2 when are you going to fix the mobile signal in Manchester? Hardly anything in the city centre and I need to rely on Wi-Fi. Definitely not worth what I’m currently paying for it
-
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!
-
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?
-
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?
-
Dani Tomlinson 🎶 (@6danicalifornia) reported from Horwich, EnglandI 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 😡😡
-
Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, EnglandThey told her they are affiliated with @O2 and apparently do not offer cooling off periods. How can they miss-sell to a vulnerable lady with a brain injury and not cancel it. @plandotcom DISGUSTING.
-
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?
-
Mike Bowden (@bodsy0) reported from Stockport, England@o2 you really need to change your 'on-hold' music #terrible 😎
-
Craig (@CA_Speaky) reported from Wigan, England@WAFCWill @O2 Exactly the same mate… whether it’s in Wigan , Blackpool , Manchester or Liverpool. Always shocking service. Hardly any signal !! Poor service
-
Claire 🖤 (@PerryClaire27) reported from Manchester, England@O2 sort your **** signal out, £70 a month for this bullshit

Leann (@leannt1984) reported from Salford, EnglandHi @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!
-
Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England@O2 has less than 20 mins to sort their app out. Come on guys, this is so bad
-
Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Urmston, England@O2 when are you gonna allow people to get back into the priority app this tickets thing has been a right **** show
-
Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported from Stockport, EnglandWelp @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

Nick Briggs 🌳 👉 😊👈 (@Glasnerallover) reported@ozzybn1989 @O2 I binned o2 off a year ago after 10 year, dreadful network service and customer service too
-
Jade (@Jade66755388) reported@O2 Avoid at all costs! Put in a complaint about the non existent signal at home to be told a ridiculous response time. When I finally get a response they want to call me but can’t tell me when… I HAVE NO SIGNAL! Told me it’s resolved now, but my 1 bar says otherwise..! Sort it!
-
Dr Sonali Misra (@MisraSonali) reported@O2 I am also unable to log into VMO2 in India through my laptop. How do I speak to customer care without having to spend money on international call? Please help. I am being charged for an extra month when I’ve already paid for everything and disconnected it in time
-
John Till (@JohnTillUK) reported@sackedseafarer @O2 But I keep getting errors “Too many page redirects occurred” whether I use the app or website. I then tried to submit a complaint online and guess what, that throws an error too! So raised it via X DM and given a complaint ref and assured I’d be contacted via my preferred channel
-
Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported@O2 @Mally_DB Still not fixed 🙄 2026 and tech giant O2 don’t know how to resolve a payment gateway issue 🙄 @O2 - you have customers who wish to pay their bills online. Do better!
-
Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported@BluesnJazzxx @O2 They have known about this issue for a few months now but don’t want to take responsibility and actually fix it. It’s the same on the website too. Someone seriously messed up and it would seem that O2 don’t care. They have become prawns. No backbone and full of shite
-
J (@jdrinkswine) reported. @O2 can someone please tell me why I cannot access the my o2 app?! I’m stuck in a loop of being asked to register my email address. Everytime I call to try and resolve this, I get promised a call back & OVER month later this issue still isn’t resolved!! SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE
-
neni♡ 🌷 (@agb_ayline) reportedHow I wish what happened yesterday had never happened. My arm hurts so much, even though I’m so happy to see Ariana; my back hurts, my feet hurt, my whole body hurts because of the sick people who did this to me. My wrist hurts a lot. 💔 Just thinking about it makes me cry @O2 I hope you can read my email.

john (@jhargie4) reported@o2 @virginmedia CEO LUTZ SCHUELER seems rather that sending the DEADLOCK letter your team actually want to CANCEL my COMPLAINT!!!!

Stuarty Mccarroll (@Stuartylovesya) reported@BelfastGiants @O2 I know it's been less than 24 hours, but i wonder how the jersey sales are going in comparison to previous seasons... 👀I'd guess they haven't gone well. Still time to rectify these poor decisions. White jersey is fine, the other three, horrible... Giants logo HAS TO BE central
