Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Bolton and nearby locations:

  • dtackley Daniel Tackley (@dtackley) reported from Bury, England

    Oh what a surprise. @O2 have yet again failed to take my direct debit payment. Every month I call and they assure me the next payment will be taken but it never has. Sheer incompetence!

  • DWATKINSON Daniel Watkinson (@DWATKINSON) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 are really frustrating me, I need my service restoring but can’t seem to do it right now

  • Mr_Ricker79 Ricky Gwilliam (@Mr_Ricker79) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Are you able to confirm, without directing me to your website (which doesn’t answer my question and does not help) when 5G will be available in Manchester? Thank you

  • _Mikki1993 Mikki (@_Mikki1993) reported from Bury, England

    @O2 I phoned and the woman I spoke with said the amount showing in 'usage cost' was my overall bill as opposed to being in addition to what was showed under 'handset cost' which I've never know to be the case before. Is this correct?

  • matpilling Mat. (@matpilling) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @O2 I’ve emailed customer services as it doesn’t seem that anyone else is able to deal with my query!

  • DodgyValley Balcombe (@DodgyValley) reported from Walkden, England

    @O2 is there an issue with O2 data network centre of Sheffield at the moment, not been working last few hours

  • 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!

  • JustAH0bbit nat (@JustAH0bbit) reported from Bury, England

    Crying like a baby because #o2uk have totally ****** me over big time if my depression wasn’t bad enough @O2 they done a contract completely wrong and now I’m not able to get my iPad fixed 😭😭😭 I’m so upset

  • x_Saz Sarah Pollard (@x_Saz) reported from Bryn, England

    @O2 you’ve charged me 6.99 for nominated delivery today with DPD @dhlexpressuk & the courier went to the wrong address & made out he’d been & said I wasn’t in. Worst customer service I’ve ever received & I expect a refund

  • Is_Me_Ben Ben Winstanley (@Is_Me_Ben) reported from Aspull, England

    @O2 incorrectly charge £XXX to our bank account. Admit this was done in error. We have to wait until 6th Jan 2021 before it can be refunded. Even then, we can to call back to request it on the day. Why do we put up with this type of customer service??

  • kayewillan Kaye Willan 🏖🌞 (@kayewillan) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @O2 I’ve got some voicemails on my phone that I NEVER want deleted , how can you help ?

  • DWATKINSON Daniel Watkinson (@DWATKINSON) reported from Urmston, England

    So @O2 take the bar off my phone at 1700 hours and nearly 6 hours later the bar is still there even tho they told me it would be removed after 10 minutes, not like I need to use my phone or anything. I’ve only been a customer for 12 years and only spent about £5000 on them

  • NayJDennis Nay 🍉 (@NayJDennis) reported from Partington, England

    @JD0NOHUE @O2 Yep, and as you know he doesn’t have the best manners, so you can only imagine how bad it was

  • marikapaprik marico (@marikapaprik) reported from Walkden, England

    Please tell me @O2 why I have so many issues calling you up? You cut off my phone and every time I try to call up to get it reconnected it’s a damn hassle?

  • NayJDennis Nay 🍉 (@NayJDennis) reported from Partington, England

    @O2 awful service. Called to pay my device plan in full, was on the phone for >1 hr spoke to 5 different people in 5 different teams that couldn’t help (Customer Service, Retentions, Payments, Billing & Upgrades). My dog would’ve give a better service than what I received today!

  • goughy84 Mark Lister (@goughy84) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 hi. I have Disney+ free till end month, when it then becomes £5.99. I saw on o2 offers I can add it for £3.99. Do I need to cancel and re add for the discount or will the £2 off auto apply when it becomes chargeable? Thanks

  • ISCDXN Isaac (@ISCDXN) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 hello! I entered for 6 months free of Disney+ in July but never actually completed the registration on my account so will that have been activated or not? Could you check please

  • Is_Me_Ben Ben Winstanley (@Is_Me_Ben) reported from Aspull, England

    @O2 incorrectly charge £XXX to our bank account. Admit this was done in error. We have to wait until 6th Jan 2021 before it can be refunded. Even then, we have to call back to request it on the day. Why do we put up with this type of customer service??

  • Is_Me_Ben Ben Winstanley (@Is_Me_Ben) reported from Aspull, England

    @O2 The enforcement letters continue - three more received today - sent to a loyal @O2 customer who hasn’t done anything wrong. We have not yet had any reassurance that this mess - from @O2 ‘s error - will be resolved.

  • atlr Alexander Robinson (@atlr) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi. Yes, she is unable to relay the code to me. I was also told that, in order to cancel the account entirely, I’d also have to relay a code. I registered a security word when I set the account up. I’ve provided this. But I am still unable to admin/run my account. This is crazy.

  • thenewnhams Sam Newnham (@thenewnhams) reported

    @O2 Is there an issue in the Bh area? I haven’t had data all day Status checker says you’re investigating it. Thanks

  • Jameshickmott86 deepwoke (@Jameshickmott86) reported

    @O2 Your lack of care or help has just ensured i cancelled today. 12 customer off to your biggest rival! Still, i bet you couldnt give a monkeys, as thats the o2 way of late👍

  • KresnaAstra Kresna Astraatmadja (@KresnaAstra) reported

    @ich_ayu @O2 In some countries, you can keep the number when you change the service provider. The number is the identity, the "religion". The provider should not hold the number hostage to their bad product and poor service.

  • VLSspeaks1 VLSspeaks (@VLSspeaks1) reported

    @O2 signal is shocking, can’t get anything outside of wifi. Been like this for two days now. 😩

  • warrenshute Warren Shute CFP® FPFS (@warrenshute) reported

    After an hour on the chat bot with @O2 I’ve saved myself £600 a year on the family mobile phones! Not bad, painful, but worth it.

  • ich_ayu ayu purwaningsih (@ich_ayu) reported

    Quitting your contract with @O2 is harder than changing religion. The service is so bad and costumer service is only nice to new costumers. They treat old customers badly, very badly. They don’t appreciate loyalty.

  • rob_benfenati Roberto Benfenati (@rob_benfenati) reported

    2 weeks without signal because you’re improving my area to finally have a better service. Can I pay my next bill just a few £ saying that I’m improving my bank account for further smoother and preciser payments? @O2

  • SPD_travels SPD travels 🚄✈️🌉 (@SPD_travels) reported

    @O2 I’ve sent you a DM. 3 days without any signal due to a mast problem, yet I bet you’ll still expect a full months billing payment…

  • nikkijo23 Nixki W (@nikkijo23) reported

    @O2 is there an issue in the E13 area? I haven’t had data since yesterday. Status checker intermittently says you’re investigating a mast down, it currently say you’re fine but still no data.

  • peter33266430 peter (@peter33266430) reported

    @O2 this has to be the worst customer device
