  • MattyHenno
    Matt Henno (@MattyHenno) reported from Appley Bridge, England

    @O2 How are customers buying them when there’s no way of accessing your app or your browser version? You’re advertising a service that you’re not providing. Answers please

  • StevePickupTM
    Stephen Pickup (@StevePickupTM) reported from Lower Darwen, England

    20 years with @O2 and this will be my last contract with them come September the staff in the Blackburn store need a lesson in salesmanship when sat in front of a customer looking down at their phone texting is not a great way of convincing people to stay with the network

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

  • Dr_Bass
    Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi, my 4G signal over the last few months has been dreadful. I’m currently sitting with 3 bars of 4G and waiting about 10-20 seconds for a picture to download. I thought it was just me but seen plenty others complaining.

  • 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.

    @O2 @o2 Your service in Bolton area has been terrible over recent weeks to the point I am considering leaving. When will this improve??? #badservice #telephone

  • TwoEyedGovernor

    As soon as my contracts up @o2 it’ll be the last day you’ll ever get any money from me been with you guys for 10 years and you kick people down when they’re on their knees.

    Marcus 🇬🇧✊🏾 (@elgobsucram) reported 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

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

    @O2 Too little too late @o2 it shouldn't take you 90mins to answer query and your chat was unavailable... I'll go to another provider who offers a better service #notfitforourpose

  • alid7997

    @O2 why is your signal in Manchester so, so ****?!

  • 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?

  • JacquiDarling
    Jacqueline (@JacquiDarling) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 known issue affecting quality of calls and 4G reduced to 3 G. Spoke with your Helpdesk who are aware of issue in BL3 area but no fix date. Why am i paying for a service i cant use. Been told to use wifi or hotspot. Been happening fir weeks now.

  • 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

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

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

    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!

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Shelo_Mrs
    🌸Shelo🌸 (@Shelo_Mrs) reported 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!!
