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

  • AtlasSailing

    @O2 Work was meant to be completed last week! Do I move to a better mobile company or are you going to improve the service???

  • JacquiDarling

    @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.

  • Hurstchris2102
    Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, England

    Absolute shambles from @O2 with the pre sale of Peter Kay tickets. I managed to get some through gigs & tours but no checks so could have bought them even if I wasn't an O2 customer. Pointless having a pre sale if its open to all #peterkay #O2Priority

  • Josh_Deegan

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

    @O2 what is with no service in Manchester?! So bad and un safe!

  • 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

  • TwoEyedGovernor
    Sherwin Clark-Assoon (@TwoEyedGovernor) reported from Manchester, England

    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.

  • 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.

  • J0eH0lmes
    Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Stockport, England

    @joe_fush @O2 I've been trying to log into my @O2 account and you keep sending me text messages with codes on to log me in, but with absolutely zero signal I can not receive the codes to access my account 🥴

  • Andy_TheGrouch
    Andy (@Andy_TheGrouch) reported from Bryn, England

    @O2 no chance i’m renewing, genuinely shite network coverage, cant make call when driving without it sounding like someone is under water & call failing. Mast been down in Ashton for over a week. Phone basically useless. Troubleshooting links are pointless - not good enough.

  • violetibeh
    Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

  • gerwyn
    Gerwyn (@gerwyn) reported from Manchester, England

    @biteme_brighton @O2 @leemc87 It’s awful in Manchester

  • AdnyNichols
    Andy Nichols (@AdnyNichols) reported from Horwich, England

    @O2 Hi i changed my contract with you last Wednesday and have been waiting for a delivery order reference KMM2134901340I15977L0KM. It has not arrived yet can you help please.

  • 17jkennedy
    Jacqualine Kennedy (@17jkennedy) reported from Bryn, England

    It’s already been said but @o2 it’s a disgrace - early access to Peter Kay tickets - no chance, now sold out - O2 customers were NEVER getting priority ……

  • 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!

  • J0eH0lmes
    Joe Holmes (@J0eH0lmes) reported from Salford, England

    @O2 my phone is saying no sim so I have zero signal or data to call or text you. Any chance of getting someone to give me a ring to sort out a new sim card?

    @likesretirement @TomTugendhat @O2 And we wonder why the Tory government never managed to fix anything! 🙄

  • Morgan7MJ
    Ｍｏｒｇａｎ 🇾🇪💫 (@Morgan7MJ) reported

    Signal just gets worse and worse in the UK, in Chester train station atm and what used to work not too bad isn’t working at all and I’m on 4G full bars and nothing is loading or working. It’s pretty bad considering a place like Chester @O2

  • BenjaminEHowe
    Ben (@BenjaminEHowe) reported

    @AndyFurnival2 @TomTugendhat @O2 It was better when there were fewer mobile devices competing for the same signal.

  • GillRaeWalker

    @browncharley23 @TomTugendhat @O2 Minimally - they work in an outage.

  • KettchUK

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE Don't worry, the private sector will be along any moment with that investment you said they'd be putting into the network decades ago.

  • Jonny_Ham

    25+ years with @O2 BT Cellnet, finally had enough, signal absolutely shocking, totally gone down the pan.

    Christopher (NOT Chris) (@puncharama) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @vodafone Try speaking to the regulator about it then you can really see why uk services are so poor

  • paalston
    Peter Alston (@paalston) reported

    @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE Make it the law, ofcom, that if there’s no decent reception on your chosen provider then mobiles piggyback onto a service which is actually available whenever you are, akin to the 999 thing - your mobile provider pick up the cost. Arguably just one UK network would be better
