    ~Jack 🐝 (@JMcKnighty) reported from Manchester, England

    Really unimpressed with @O2 Contact Centre customer service. Working in customer service myself, I know changing a direct debit date shouldn't take 30 minutes with 2 agents, a dropped call, being called back, and then being told I need to call again tomorrow This should be 2 mins

    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

    @O2 @purpledolphins7 They didn't help me. They didn't apply the increase in speed. In fact they said I could have 1gig for £30 extraper month. False advertising and liars!

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

    There are serious mobile phone signal issues in Middleton and it needs sorting and ******* properly @O2

  • SawdayJames
    James Sawday (@SawdayJames) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hey - I have checked the guide. It’s not my device as it worked 100% better on a recent trip to France. It’s not the environment as this is something I experience everywhere (in Leicester, in Manchester, on trains, at festivals) - but your signal checker says I have good 4G.

    @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

    @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?

  • RJakesEU
    Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

  • NikotaLimitless
    Quantum Infinite Seer Nikota888 (@NikotaLimitless) reported

    @O2 So went to o2 as my phone pin would not go into the phone and open had the phone for some time. No issues before. This is what unfolded I have an account with you and my phone would not allow me to put in my pin number so took the phone to hasting branch, served by a guy called Daniel to get a new sim, with the same number but the same problem arrived. I brought the phone off you a few years back he told me to contact Samsung you are only the provider he gave me a number he really was of no help and the other thing. I showed him my passport as id and started to put my passport info into the system this was without my permission. Do you want to explain why this unfolded this with my personal info. when you have my details on your system ???? Very Very disturbed by it all as you are provider's for a service I buy a phone off you but cannot get my phone sorted when something is wrong. If that is the case you should not be selling phones you cannot sort out or send away to fix the problem. serservice permission. I was asked to show proof of id not submit my passport info into your system. 3:58 PM

  • IanCockerill2
    I.C (@IanCockerill2) reported

    @O2 has anyone else ever had a promise that O2 would call to sort out a serious mistake on their part, only for them not to call at all? Clear lack of customer service response demands another complaint! This company wouldn’t know customer service practice if it fell on its head!

  • Jade_Russell
    Jade Russell (@Jade_Russell) reported

    @O2 my signal has been shocking for over a week now! No 5G, barely any 4G and struggle to make and receive calls! No doubt I’ll still be expected to pay my full, high, bill come the end of the month! Possibly time to shop around after 15 years!

  • markcallow10
    mark callow (@markcallow10) reported

    @fiyero @O2 They probably can’t get their own signal

  • csljohnkirby
    John Kirby (@csljohnkirby) reported

    Why does @O2 make it so hard to be a good customer? Yesterday, due to terrible service, and for them going to my bank for a DD I did not owe, I received compensation of £50. Today, they threatened to cut my services and report me to Debt Collection Agencies. They sent me SMS and an email, yet apparently, the £30 compensation they offered today, I can not have because I had the maximum compensation yesterday for another matter.

  • Dan_Roberts21
    Dan Roberts (@Dan_Roberts21) reported

    My @O2 signal has been so bad for weeks now, hardly get any now it’s shocking, phone and internet signal for over £60 and can’t use it

    @O2 Oh come on... Please, I messaged you earlier re : my wife's data/ new SIM issues, her new SIM won't function but her old SIM has been disconnected leaving her with out a phone at all 🤬🤬🤬

    @joecousins89 @O2 I feel I need to look about moving too, I’ve been with them for years but need a phone with signal

    @O2 Patience??? I’ve lost it. I’ll be considering a move to a different network. I’ve been a loyal customer since my first phone and this is how I’m repaid.
