  • ConnorByron2 Byron (@ConnorByron2) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @O2 I have pretty much zero chance of getting 4G/3G anywhere I go in the country being on your network. Why? Paying for service I do not get

  • BlennerK Kathryn Blennerhassett (@BlennerK) reported from Manchester, England

    Hello @O2 is there a problem with the network? My calls aren’t going through.

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

    Anyone got any suggestions on how to get a pac code from @O2 it's next to impossible to get through. Surely this is against @Offcom code of conduct? A comms network company that won't take customer calls!?! Anyone else having this problem? #ukmobile

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

    @O2 how do you get through to you for a pac code. Been ringing for an eternity and still waiting. It's as if you're ignoring the call so i'll have stay. pretty cr*p service from a main mobile provider. Let me guess #hgvshortageexcuse or #covidexcuse #notfitforourpose @Offcom

  • 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

  • ecgdave Dave Johnson (@ecgdave) reported from Edenfield, 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

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

    @O2 Sort the signal out in wigan please I feel like dial up Internet was better 20 years ago than my rubbish Internet at the moment. I'll be terminating my contract in a month if nothing happens ASAP been years now literally dead spots where nothing works

  • CherylManley14 Cheryl Manley (@CherylManley14) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 due a phone call from an engineer looking into my account at the very latest today. Rang in, lost signal, advisor had to call me back. Still nothing but yet bet you’ll take payment on time for poor service

  • JonHurst15 ⚽️ Jon BWFC Hurst ⚽️ (@JonHurst15) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 I have done and no joy, paying 50 odd quid a month for crap signal and crap Internet signal everywhere I go, you want to help then help me cancel my contract for a service you are not providing 👍

  • BeckyAdamson2 ✨Becky Adamson✨ (@BeckyAdamson2) reported

    @O2 Biggest let down ever! A loyal customer of yours for 20 years!!

  • emmaxlouise_ emma (@emmaxlouise_) reported

    @O2 Me and my friend have been on the site literally since 9:40 and have seen no change on the screen from “something went wrong”. What is the point of priority if it doesn’t work ????????? “Keep the app running smoothly” like what does that even mean? How about fix your app looool

  • bostock_bentley LIΔM 🤦🏻‍♂️ (@bostock_bentley) reported

    @O2 Don’t 👏🏻 be 👏🏻 sorry 👏🏻 ******* 👏🏻 fix 👏🏻it

  • ry__nn joni mitchell never lies (@ry__nn) reported

  • natasha_smartt TASHA 💕 (@natasha_smartt) reported

    @O2 The site was down before 9.45am!

  • KennyLFC Kenny (@KennyLFC) reported

    @O2 Happens every time with o2 priority. Worst perk going. You let scalpers and bits win every time and your allocation will now be sold at 5x face value to screw over your customers. Terrible service

  • GrahamO GrahamO (@GrahamO) reported

    @O2 Why is it that I never get any spam calls trying to sell me a new phone etc, until straight after buying a bundle on O2. I hadnt had a call for years and as soon as I bought a bundle, I started getting a call a day from Indian Call centres pretending to be in London.

  • NicolaM26495233 Nicola Morgan (@NicolaM26495233) reported

    @O2 @Ticketmaster Absolute **** show!!! O2 should really stop with selling priority tickets they fail every time to keep up with the demand! It’s literally impossible to get @Beyonce tickets this morning!!!!! No one can access o2 priority😡😡😡

  • TravellingJenna Jenna (@TravellingJenna) reported

    @O2 needs to issue a mass apology. They were bound to know the demand for this tour and should have been ready for it. Completely unfair that scalpers have these tickets and will now sell for thousands
