    Chris Thompson (@Chris_Mr_T) reported from Chorley, England

    Hi @O2 we’ve been in Blackpool most of the day and have little or no signal until we were leaving. Do you have a known issue, a lack of cell towers or something? We’ve been half a dozen times this year and it’s always the same on 3 different phones.

  • DamonHoward17

    @O2 worst customer service in the world! Absolutely useless!

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

  • 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

  • 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?

    Dave Wright (@DaveWrigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @BruceDevlin @grantmathieson @O2 I work in the industry (not for O2 though, although I have had internal dealings with them) and that does seem like a very odd course of action to recommend. DM me with your issue if you want and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction?

  • 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

    Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Manchester, England

    @laineyclements @O2 They’re appalling I’m going to cancel myself they are the worst mobile company I’ve ever dealt with they ignore you constantly cut you off leave you on hold zero customer service

    @B0LT0NBEAR @OfficialBWFC @O2 That's not the club thats 02 downgrading the signal in all areas of bolton

    Clare Louise Mills (@millswarrior) reported from Golborne, England

    Boring trip in to work this morning because my phone isn’t connecting to any 4G, and nothing will load on 3G so can’t check @O2 network status

  • _hayleighhxo
    Hayleigh Cross 🌷 (@_hayleighhxo) reported from Haydock, England

    Spending 30 mins on the phone to @O2 for them to do nothing because they have to wait till the issues are resolved. Is there a number I can call to make a complaint?

  • PerryClaire27
    Claire 🖤 (@PerryClaire27) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 sort your **** signal out, £70 a month for this bullshit

  • kea11y
    Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

  • CA_Speaky

    @WAFCWill @O2 Exactly the same mate… whether it’s in Wigan , Blackpool , Manchester or Liverpool. Always shocking service. Hardly any signal !! Poor service

  • dtackley

    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!
