O2 Issues Reports Near Bolton, England

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

  • SawdayJames James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @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 device as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • SawdayJames James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Well I said I am having problems with my 4g, you told me to follow the guide which told me to use the network checker, I showed you the results of the network checker and you said 4G isn’t about speeds. So what’s the point in telling me to use the network checker?

  • CurryInTurry 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!

  • SawdayJames 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.

  • SteveVanDang Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported from Stockport, England

    Welp @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

  • chrisrogan Chris Rogan (@chrisrogan) reported from Manchester, England

    Pee'd off at @GreggsOfficial and @O2 three weeks in a row with priority debacle. One week over charged, last week paid for my own this week walked out. Staff not trained in the offer and Greggs not responding to customer service emails. More Greggs issue than o2.

  • familyhomecook FAMILY HOME COOK (@familyhomecook) reported from Rochdale, England

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

  • springviewer John Edgar (@springviewer) reported from Wigan, England

    @shafterjay @O2 Now we're paying good money for no service

  • OliverBanks Oliver Banks 🇺🇦 (@OliverBanks) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 hi, how do I cancel a contract within the 14 day cooling off period please?

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported from Stockport, England

    @AndyOxon @O2 @virginmedia I've been waiting five months. Complaint gone external now!

  • 6danicalifornia Dani Tomlinson 🎶 (@6danicalifornia) reported from Horwich, England

    I 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 😡😡

  • SawdayJames James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hey - I have checked the guide. It’s not my device as it worked 100% better on a recent trip to France. It’s not the environment as this is something I experience everywhere (in Leicester, in Manchester, on trains, at festivals) - but your signal checker says I have good 4G.

  • JMcKnighty ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported from Manchester, England

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

  • howierice Howard Rice (@howierice) reported from Sale, England

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

  • clare_jeffs Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported from Stockport, England

    They 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.

  • dobirmiah ᴅᴏʙɪʀ ᴍɪᴀʜ 🐝 دوبر محمد مياه (@dobirmiah) reported from Rochdale, England

    @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

  • franlatics27 Fran Edwards (@franlatics27) reported from Garswood, England

    @O2 can you refund me my monthly payment as all the masts in wigan are down and have been for weeks....thanks

  • JonnyGravel jonnytaylor (@JonnyGravel) reported from Rochdale, England

    @O2 really poor customer service today when trying to open a new account #exasperated

  • caz_08 Caz ☺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@caz_08) reported

    @O2 how can you tell what’s using up my data. Phone not being used in two days & notced data going down. Iv now switched everything off so has to use in Wi-Fi but is there any way to find out what’s used it up please

  • Loreleilyrics Lady Edith Profile (@Loreleilyrics) reported

    Entering @O2 competitions is so exciting. I never know whether I will win or even if I do, whether I will get the prize. I won a prize in February 2020 and haven’t actually received it yet.

  • Harnaattv Harnaa (@Harnaattv) reported

    @O2 after honeslty trying my hardest, and being hung up on 3 times by Precious from your sales team - guessing you don't want my money. @ThreeUK approved my credit check no issues straight away - you've rubbish customer service and I shant be using you in the future!

  • chezwilko13 Chez☆Wilkinson (@chezwilko13) reported

    @O2 why have I been billed for a service that hasn’t started yet

  • glamrockgoth Selina (@glamrockgoth) reported

    @O2 Hi, I redeemed my rewards for an Amazon voucher but never received it. I spent half hr on the phone with customer services this morning. They couldn’t sort it & said they’d ring back between 12 & 2 and I’ve heard nothing!

  • BobbyMakepeace BOBBYMakepeace.eth (@BobbyMakepeace) reported

    @RBurnett348 Im leaving asap. No longer will I put up with signal cut outs during meetings and important times. They can’t even deliver on what we already pay gor @O2 Is a scam

  • robynmcx 𝐑𝐎𝐁𝐘𝐍 𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐈𝐅𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐃 ✨ (@robynmcx) reported

    @O2 as a long-standing customer that can find every offer for a better phone and more data cheaper than what I’ve got I think I’ll be changing networks and that’s before my price goes up in April 🙃

  • ruby1969 victoria wake (@ruby1969) reported

    @O2 absolutely chaotic service from all your departments! Been on the phone since 2pm and still not resolved issue disgraceful

  • Griffin13Miles 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐆𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐧 (@Griffin13Miles) reported

    @O2 the way you have handled my partners phone issues is truly awful, he has been without a phone for days now and all you have done is pass him from pillar to post without resolving the issue to the point he is so upset, I suggest you really question your customer service 😔

  • RonniecrossC R C (@RonniecrossC) reported

    @O2 This is getting ridiculous..finally got through & left my details, was told someone will call me..had 3 calls yesterday, each time I picked up I was cut off or call dropped, no one has called me back...The problem is my calls are dropping ..I am losing calls..this is the 2nd time
