Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, EnglandHaving to restrict my mobile to @o2 3G service because the 4G is absolutely shocking. And #o2 keep telling me there is nothing wrong with the service!!! Can't be me who is the liar as I'm getting nothing through my mobile!!!
-
Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England@O2 Can I not ring? I have messaged on here loads of times in the past and nothing gets done! Plus my partner is having the same issues as me and we are getting sick of paying for a service we are not receiving
-
Craig Verity MIH MBII (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England@O2 Your always sorry but nothing actually ever gets done about it. Just fob me off saying "well at time of point of sale, you will have signed to understand". I have already persuaded my whole family to go to a different network one of your competitors, and I will tell more people.

Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, EnglandAfter complaining for over 9 month about reception and signal strength in my area, @O2 advice me to change the sim, now brand new sim card and still the reception and signal is horrendous. So @o2 what is your recommendation now???

-
Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, EnglandI have had to lower my @O2 mobile network mode to #3G because the reception around here for anything higher is next to nothing. Have complained about this in the past and go not further communication, quite fitting really to have no communication when it comes to signal.

Dannyp#23 (@23_dannyp) reported from Lea Town, England@o2 network is non existent in the Clifton village area. Hope this gets sorted soon as this is the 4th day that people at work can’t use their phones properly

Richard Blackburn (@RPBlackburn) reported from Fleetwood, England@spottedorange07 @WainwrightRocks @O2 @214Club @lakedistrictnpa Great walk but even my #BorderCollie wanted a bit of a lay down after that I know I did #Wainwrights

Stuart McNeal (@stubpb) reported from Blackpool, England@MikeJ_C @O2 Tbf ive not had anything @O2 service has really gone downhill over the last 12 months.
-
Mark (@_notnehs) reported from Blackpool, England@bearz1066 @O2 @ThreeUK been with them for over 10 yrs no one can come close on price Never had any signal issues travelling up and down the country, usually works where my work phone doesn’t, that’s on a gamma sim meant to pick up either EE, Vodafone or o2 whichever is stronger.

Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England@psychomania666 @O2 Brace yourself for a string of promises that will never actually materialise...
-
Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England@O2 @brough_ant I have the same issue, crappy 4G in an area which you say is great. Well it isn't! I bought the Samsung A70 with 5G ready, I doubt I am going to receive 5G, so pretty pointless really buying the phone.
-
Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from South Shore, England@O2 now I know you are lying when you tell me there is nothing wrong with your signal or reception. Stood literally by the side of a mast located from your 'mynetwork' app and its giving me next to nothing. 9 month complaining to you, now I know it's an issue on you
-
Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England@O2 why am I receiving a text message today telling me you were unable to process my payment? When it was taken yesterday from my bank account!!! It seems to be one thing after another with your service lately!
-
𝙍𝙮𝙖𝙣 𝙄𝙣𝙜𝙡𝙞𝙨 © (@KippaxRyan92) reported from Fleetwood, England@O2 Hi, what time does your customer services over the phone close at this evening please?
-
Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England@O2 No you can't help because you haven't been able to help for the past 6 month whilst I have had this problem
-
Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England@O2 can i ask what 4G speed your network should be giving out to the 99% of the UK you advertise.

Craig Verity Mbii (@CraigVerity1) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England@atkin_julie @O2 I have had the same issues.

bernie mcneill (@macca2002) reported@O2 any update on failed price claim code for M&S, been nearly a week with no resolution. #Priority Monday, extremely disappointed
-
Ronnie (@ronak_malde) reported@O2 I am writing to urgently seek clarification regarding a refund that was due to be credited to my bank account. The refund was initiated on May 9, 2026, and I was informed that the funds would arrive within 3-5 business days. As of today, the money has still not been returned to my account. My experience with your customer service channels thus far has been incredibly frustrating. The primary reason I chose to migrate to another carrier was due to poor service, and this current delay only confirms that I made the right decision. Given the lack of flexibility and the difficulties I have faced, I can no longer recommend your services to others. If you feel that you have it in your heart to give me back my refund, please reach out. If not, have a meal at Wagamamas on me!

Hockey Malcontent (@EIHLMalcontent) reportedDear @O2, I think the Ombudsman needs to have a chat with you about your quality of service in comparison to your ever increasing charges. I’m horrified that I have to stay with you until next year! Worst service ever. No signal, ever. Utter disgrace.
-
🇬🇧 Andy🇬🇧 (@4peterborough) reported@O2 Like I said I have made a formal complaint 02 directly. They have a set amount of time to respond before I take it to @Ofcom if you have call centers overseas make sure the we can understand them. Refusing the 14 day change of mind is illegal fortunately, this is gonna cost £££££
-
Lilith Tuylor (@lilith15016) reported@O2 You hang up on customers who seek to make a complaint.
-
Laura (@FairyCake1983) reported@O2 how does a customer contact your Resolutions department directly?
-
Stacey Armstrong (@StaceyA_91) reportedNice of @O2 to wait for my monthly bill to go up for my data to become unbelievably slow or not work at all 🙄
-
Darren 🏎️🏁 (@darrenmk) reported@O2 Your app has turned into **** since you became part of Virgin, try to see my balance and it's always sends me an email link to click, never did this before, and it doesn't even take me to the balance. It's so obvious two systems failing to talk, ironic for a comms company
-
MR NICE (@countycasual77) reported@O2 any chance of sorting out the service in SK3 area of Stockport the signal is down for the 3rd time in as many weeks
-
Paul Tomlinson (@Tommo_Ov_Tarn) reported@O2 It’s been poor ever since I ported my number over to O2 I have made many calls to O2 and you are looking into it, but I am getting reports of not being able to message or call me and the data is sooo slow its painful
