    @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?

  • anthonyewbank
    MUFC689908 (@anthonyewbank) reported from Middleton, England

    I'd like to make a complaint @O2

  • ZackHallam
    Zack Hallam 🐝 (@ZackHallam) reported from Manchester, England

    Why does @O2 refuse to give you internet connection whenever there’s more than 4 people near you… Surely there’s enough infrastructure in Manchester to support 4G?! Every single time I’m in a city centre, my data just doesn’t work. It’s a joke

  • eagleeyedferret
    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??

    @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!

    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

    @O2 I’ve not had access to the network all day, what’s going on? It would have been good to be notified of issues. Really not happy 😠 I’m due for an upgrade, might have to@consider switching to another network

    @O2 My data is not working. Unless I’m connected to Wi-Fi I cannot do any browsing. Is there an issue?

    Hi @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!

  • ShanRebec94
    Shannon (@ShanRebec94) reported from Sale, England

    @chlo3matthewman @O2 @viagogo Tickets on there for over a £1000 now, O2 clearly weren’t experiencing issues with ticket demand unless you were an ordinary customer who wanted them at face value. Very very poor

    Boring trip in to work this morning because my phone isn’t connecting to any 4G, and nothing will load on 3G so can’t check @O2 network status

  • shafterjay

    @O2 is there a issue with your app / website can’t get access

  • 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

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

    @BattyeB @EE I'm afraid I can't recommend @O2 even if they have good coverage where you are... you can't get any service from them. Been trying to get through for an hour this time #notfitforourpose

    Ukobach (@JasonOw55271825) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE I’m not saying immigration is the problem However it is relatively easy for a mobile cell to be overwhelmed by users - how many HMO’s have sprung up there - it’s a genuine problem and the networks usually address it with micro or pico cells

  • GoodhandWill
    Will Goodhand (@GoodhandWill) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 It also seems to be getting worse - v poor on 5G often

  • iamryanodonnell
    Ryan O'Donnell (@iamryanodonnell) reported

    @O2 Thank you but I’ve pretty much done all of this. The network needs serious investment to manage the amount of people connected, and to ensure data is reliable and stable.

    @browncharley23 @TomTugendhat @O2 Minimally - they work in an outage.

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE There are people in Somerset who have never had a mobile signal ever.

  • aliward96
    Ali (@aliward96) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 I’ve been with a few networks and O2 are easily the worst. I’ll never go anywhere near them or any network that piggy backs off them.

  • EX23LCL
    Sideways Tree (@EX23LCL) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE Wow it’s almost like the number of people using the network has increased dramatically but the infrastructure isn’t being built to keep up?

  • DrNickAlpha
    Nicko | Longevity Investing (@DrNickAlpha) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 I remember when I was on O2 I had no signal in the middle of Waterloo station.

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @vodafone What a rude response when they have reached out to try and help. Not a gentlemen. And not a officer 's reppnse. Arrogant and entitled. Why post your original message?

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE Your lot had 14 years. Maybe you should’ve campaigned about this then to your pals in government. Instead you did **** all
