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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • jessslee_ Jess (@jessslee_) reported from Walkden, England

    @O2 hi, my mobile date isn’t working and hasn’t been for some hours. No issues in area, and everything looks normal, please help 🥱

  • 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

  • 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!

  • malllmallll Mario Alghatta (@malllmallll) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 terrible service from you guys today. Thanks for the inconvenience...

  • 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

  • AbiClarey Abi (@AbiClarey) reported from Stockport, England

    @O2 I seem to never have any internet access anywhere, even when showing 4G nothing loads and no WhatsApp’s come through

  • LucyLoopy86 Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

  • SamAspinall95 Sam (@SamAspinall95) reported from Leyland, England

    @O2 would you be able to Message me in regards to my bill, can’t seem to ring customer service just disconnects

  • CA_Speaky 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

  • 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!

  • Julio_Afonso522 Julio Afonso 🇲🇿 🇵🇹 🇪🇺🇨🇭 (@Julio_Afonso522) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Why are you refusing a contract to a new customer just because they don't have a credit score? Person working full time with a good pay, bank account. Why refusing a contract?

  • 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.

  • shafterjay Jay Unsworth (@shafterjay) reported from Wigan, England

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

  • AlexHamer1 Alex Hamer (@AlexHamer1) reported from Blackburn, England

    @O2 why has my 4G mysteriously stopped working just as my 2 year contract expires? I’m currently on a rolling contract at reduced rate. Seems very odd it would all of a sudden cut out completely?

  • lucyolix lucy (@lucyolix) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 is the signal down in Salford? Data isn’t working and the signal is either none or just one

  • 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!

  • svxa__ 𝒮 (@svxa__) reported

    @O2 absolute rubbish! Been on the phone for hours and you guys hang up each time, refusing to refund me my money that I’ve been waiting for for 7 months now

  • GoldShyGuy1 Part Time MKT Drifter (@GoldShyGuy1) reported

    @O2 I don’t dispute the need for investment, however the tariff model could’ve been revamped any time over the last few years given the challenges people have faced financially. Another case of our costs go up and we’ll shovel on to the customer. Flexible tariffs are the future.

  • iaconic_ lou (@iaconic_) reported

    @BCantona7 @O2 Surely this would mean that the terms of the original contract have changed and is no longer legally valid? In theory people could cancel their contracts?

  • davemhall88 Dr David Hall (@davemhall88) reported

    @O2 any particular reason for the last few days I've had basically no mobile data? Barely pick up 5g in places I did before and the 4g has full signal but no data speed. Is there a fault?

  • annemariepoet Anne-Marie Silbiger (@annemariepoet) reported

    @turnerchris @O2 @GarethTurpin No, not ethical, when would ethics help?

  • footie_lass vicky (@footie_lass) reported

    @travelred @O2 I got same msg on my birthday rude or what!

  • tomavfc22 Tom (@tomavfc22) reported

    Imagine @O2 having the cheek to tell me my plan is increasing when the service they offer is quite literally the worst in the UK and their data never ever works. Embarrassing.

  • SiinghAaron MoonBugatti (@SiinghAaron) reported

    @O2 how to I cancel my contract with you guys

  • peeblesrunner Paul Nichol (@peeblesrunner) reported

    @O2 (Gareth Turpin) very disappointed that you want to hike up my contract by 17.3%. Using RPI which is discredited by the ONS to get a bigger increase. You well know that inflation is decreasing. Very poor customer service!

  • Burnside_5 Burnside (@Burnside_5) reported

    @Sam_McK_88 @LifeByStills @O2 Do we? We have the power of choice of which provider and which tariff but I never known of anyone that has been able to negotiate their tariff price at point of sale
