    @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

    Delighted to announce this household is now an @O2 free zone. Finally rid of their shocking customer service and outrageous roaming fees. #ikeepmyword

    @O2 We have performed FFR necessarily, as this problem has persisted over three phones. This is an issue of inherited number. Very weird. We've been in touch with the previous user and they are aware. Changed their details etc. It's still happening.

    @O2 @TalkTalk can’t believe the farce of Talk Talk telling my Dad to move to O2 then 10 days later O2 telling us to call Talk Talk over issues with the PAC code and Talk Talk telling us to call O2 instead. Been on the phone for over an hour tonight and got nowhere! Sort it out!

    @saoirse_22 @SamsungUK @O2 @virginmedia It appears to be a security certificate issue but I can actually access the certificate details on my phone. So, stumped but learned how to do something I didn't know I didn't know... #JoHari

  • Bruggers100
    Tony Brugnoli (@Bruggers100) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Vodafone just as bad down south, dead spots in and around my hometown, can’t get a phone signal at all at my son’s school. The companies will not invest in infrastructure. You can get a better signal in the Lake District because the infrastructure supports emergencies!

  • TheLynch10
    Scrumples 🇺🇦 💙🇪🇺 FBPE FBPA 3.5% European (@TheLynch10) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 02 ia completely ****, my husband barely has any signal wherever we go in the UK. I have Vodafone, marginally better.

  • jonR1939056
    dr_yugoslavia444 (@jonR1939056) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Because the UK internet infrastructure is old, it's a patchwork of systems from different eras. Less developed countries have a newer total network

  • Stacearoo
    Stacey (@Stacearoo) reported

    @O2 why on earth is it IMPOSSIBLE to sign in?!?! I have never found something so ridiculously difficult!

  • Kez_FAAFO
    Kerri (@Kez_FAAFO) reported

    @O2 my phon3 has been saying emergency calls only for the last 2 days ! I've reset the handset multiple times & taken the sim card out its still not working! I put the sim in my partners phone & it said the same thing, its a pay as you go sim card it has no credit. Never had this

    OldEstateAgent (@agent_old) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 Without being disrespectful to Cambodia, we had 5G and no problems. Presumably in this country, it all comes down to money.

    @jibbajabbba @kokeshimum @O2 EE has 5g where I live, yet videos end up with the 'loading wheel of death' regularly.... The UK infrastructure across the board is **** compared to many other countries

  • xxxxminniex
    Minnie (@xxxxminniex) reported

    @Christo44671940 @O2 Thank you, O2 did they put a £5 cap on but it still continued to charge lots over this. Not sure how or why but it’s bad because they told her it was her sending picture messages off the WiFi and didn’t tell her it’s a scam. They even have an link to check premium numbers on the bill so I’m almost positive the call handlers knew it wasn’t my mum doing this herself and it says received texts and not ones she had sent!
