  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 devise as I’ve just been aboard and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported 57 seconds ago from Urmston, England

  @O2 2/2 both occasions the call centres were noisy. Call centre operative didn’t speak very god English. Both operatives complaining their systems were slow or not working at all and putting me on hold for long periods.

  @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.

  @BigLouComedy @O2 100% Gonna try the general sale on Saturday. Don't hold much hope but you never know

  FAMILY HOME COOK (@familyhomecook) reported 17 minutes ago 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?

• 
  Keeley O'Mara (@Gsd1Omara) reported 25 minutes ago 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 why is your signal in Manchester so, so ****?!

• 
  Clare (@clare_jeffs) reported 26 minutes ago 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.

  Grant Griffiths-Mathieson (@grantmathieson) reported 27 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @BruceDevlin @O2 Has she maybe assumed data protection issue

• 
  James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported 27 minutes ago 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.

• 
  Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported 27 minutes ago 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

• 
  Adrian Simcox (@eagleeyedferret) reported 34 minutes ago 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 34 minutes ago 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

  @O2 hi guys, I've not had a signal for 2 weeks, got a sick relative and a signal, please help!! Post code BL52LF

  Dominic Abraham-Newman (@DAbrahamNewman) reported 35 minutes ago 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!

  🌸Shelo🌸 (@Shelo_Mrs) reported 37 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  @O2 why is it IMPOSSIBLE to speak yo somebody about your crappy service & non existent network????? £50 per month for NO SERVICE AT ALL for almost 12 months ! That's £600 shocking company!!

  Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported 55 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  Always good finding 3 unknown direct debits to @O2 2 months *after* reporting fraud, especially after they refused to refund the charges to gambling websites I’d never even heard of

  Deano... (@Frugal_ways) reported 8 minutes ago

  @humantorch1036 @O2 @Ofcom Unless an issue is happening to a certain number of people, watchdogs, official bodies, etc. Do nothing. So they just plod along, counting numbers, with little to offer. Also, there is no such thing as, "An independent watchdog/official body" - they are in each other's pockets.

  @O2 @TheO2 your speakers work just fine, please turn it down a bit! Didn’t come to a concert to leave deaf

• 
  Mitch Hirsty (@mitchhirsty) reported 11 minutes ago

  @Archibald1878 @O2 And another one O2! You keep blaming your customers instead of actually fixing the broken payment gateway! Acknowledge the problem and fix it! The generic troubleshooting you provide is not going to resolve a problem on your end.

• 
  Not a sheep (@ArcherImproving) reported 12 minutes ago

  @O2 I keep getting calls from people claiming to be from o2. When I query why they keep calling they hang up!

• 
  Craig Turnbull (@pooliemadone84) reported 13 minutes ago

  @O2 why is it no matter where I am in the uk there’s always a problem with streaming or phone signal! You’re supposed to be the best coverage out there but it’s a daily occurrence

• 
  Ian (@ezzeeegooner) reported 17 minutes ago

  @O2 I am getting sick and tired of people saying they’re from O2 calling me, not one of them sounds “English” or calling from “England” yet someone has given them my number I haven’t been an O2 customer for years yet they seem to know I used to be a customer Stop selling data on

  Natalie Mc (@MyApocalypse_) reported 18 minutes ago

  @O2 wtf is going on with the signal recently? Status checker says nothing wrong anywhere, but my 1-2 bars of 4G that is useless say otherwise, sick of paying money to get no signal

• 
  Amy (@AJosephine_xoxo) reported 19 minutes ago

  One reason I miss working for @O2 which i never thought till now is when samsung release new tech, cos I loved seeing it first!!!

  Darrell fletcher (@Fletchmeister81) reported 21 minutes ago

  @EE Its ok, after the last few months of poor service etc, ive decided that all phones will be cancelled when i can get the iphone 18, @O2 seem to be the best so far. You really need to train your instore staff and phone staff. Only decent store staff was ava in trafford centre
