    @O2 what a waste of money it is I pay for you're service every month. Another mast issue in my area, no calls or texts all day, I ise this phone for buisness Yet again lost more money through o2 and the rubbish equipment I've never had this issue with any other service provider

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    I suspect if I cancelled the three direct debits I pay every month to @O2 they’d find time to get in touch with me. Help with setting up a new phone when their online SIM swap is banjaxed, not so much.

  • kirstynewcastle kirsty widdowfield (@kirstynewcastle) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 been charged for a premium service that wasn’t me. How do I go about getting a refund when I can’t get through on the number that billed me

  • sarahhunter25 sarah hunter (@sarahhunter25) reported from Durham, England

    .@O2 customer services are no help at all. I can't pay my bill over the app or online as it says payment being processed when no payment has been made despite attempts. Now getting emails saying I'll be charged of no payment is received. I'm trying to make a payment but no help.

  • th_west Tracy West (@th_west) reported from Darlington, England

    @ODEONCinemas hello, I have a voucher code from @O2 priority for a free cinema ticket on 9th May but it’s keep saying “there was a problem adding the voucher” when I put it into the odeon app

  • TCHL Tim Luckhurst (@TCHL) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 your customer service is appalling. You should be ashamed.

  • TCHL Tim Luckhurst (@TCHL) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 I repeat: your customer service is appalling.

  • sarahhunter25 sarah hunter (@sarahhunter25) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 hi I need some help. I've just been given the #GalaxyWatch3 as a birthday gift. Its the 4g version where I need a e-sim. I've contacted customer services but I haven't a clue what to do can you help? Thanks. Sarah.

  • petersnowdon Peter Snowdon (@petersnowdon) reported from Darlington, England

    Laughing at @yasminausten on the phone to @O2 can't believe they call this customer service. Hilarious craic.

  • headcoverlova Paul Frampton (@headcoverlova) reported from Bearpark, England

    @O2 really bad customer service to offer a free streaming service a lot of families could use right now only for new customers. Other networks offering free services for all customers. Make me think you don’t value loyal customers at all

  • TCHL Tim Luckhurst (@TCHL) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 Appalling customer service. An apology is required.

  • MarcusSummers81 Marcus (@MarcusSummers81) reported from Newton Aycliffe, England

    Seriously fecked off with @DriiftLive all we wanted to was come in from a fantastic day out and enjoy #LiveAtWorthyFarm but noooo your pathetic service has ruined it all, absolute joke just glad I didn't pay but wish I could have had my @O2 treat to enjoy 😡😡😡😡😡😡

  • Kirsty_x85 Kirsty 😘💋 (@Kirsty_x85) reported from Darlington, England

    Dear @AmazonUK & @o2 its SUNDAY STOP SENDING EMAILS AND TEXTS at stupid o'clock in the morning! Sincerely a grumpy tired me cause you both woke me up! 😡😠

  • carolinehinde ☀️Caroline☀️ (@carolinehinde) reported from Darlington, England

    @llysiih @O2 I hope your friends follow that up with @O2 because as a customer of theirs myself I’d want to know that this was dealt with 😡

  • MarcusSummers81 Marcus (@MarcusSummers81) reported from Newton Aycliffe, England

    Hi @O2 I have an access code for Glastonbury live feed but it keeps coming up invalid even though it's the one I was sent by you, can you help please?

  • ilovefluffy Andrew Willis (@ilovefluffy) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    The speeds I’m getting from Sky Fibre Max are appalling too, sometimes I can’t even use it, it’s so awful, like scraping the barrel speeds and connectivity which just isn’t worth it. @O2 to the rescue here though because their 4G tether speeds are usually faster than Sky Fibre.

  • ppayne76 P Tumilty P (@ppayne76) reported from New Brancepeth, England

    @O2 how do I cancel Netflix that are extra charges on my number?

  • Kirsty_x85 Kirsty 😘💋 (@Kirsty_x85) reported from Darlington, England

    @O2 Only just managed to top up my phone so yes it's just really slow

  • Dave_Clarke_ Dave Clarke (@Dave_Clarke_) reported

    @O2 is it actually possible to talk to someone rather than the automated number which keeps hanging up? What phrase do I need to@say for this to happen. Your messaging service on the app is woeful it’s been 3 weeks trying to sort my issue #veryunhappy

  • MichaelJonesJTL Michael Jones (@MichaelJonesJTL) reported

    @EE @EE I think you need to employ more people to handle your social media platforms. You haven’t replied to ANHONE on this tweet. @O2 even managed to reply to someone on this thread and you still haven’t. Best network/customer service my arse.

  • frankie_franks1 ❤️ Fran ❤️ (@frankie_franks1) reported

    Awful customer service experience with @O2 this morning. Called to speak to an adviser regarding matching an online deal I had seen. The advisor chose to hang the phone up on me instead of discussing options. Utter disgrace! Certainly won’t be considering O2 in the future!

  • Beth_is_ Beth (@Beth_is_) reported

    Swear @O2 mobile data is just for a laugh, why is the signal so ****?🤨

  • AlanWordley Gom Schoolbag (@AlanWordley) reported

    @O2 as your app is next to useless, can you please tell me how to cancel a contract that has already ended but I'm still paying for!

  • NoTanAussieMiss Hayley (@NoTanAussieMiss) reported

    @O2 my priority app won’t open today. Is there an issue? I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling it. Just get a white screen?

  • frakcha Chuck Frakes (@frakcha) reported from Bolsover, England

    Trying to port my number online but keep getting rejection emails - bit of help @O2

  • LilyMay_96 Lily-May Collins (@LilyMay_96) reported

    Sat on hold to @O2 for nearly an hour and the PAC code they’ve given me is invalid.... send help!! @O2 is useless

  • BELIEVETHEREIS 𝕄𝕒𝕩𝕚𝕞𝕚𝕝𝕝𝕚𝕒𝕟. Politcally unaffiliated. (@BELIEVETHEREIS) reported

    @O2 I bought a Sim that had the 18gb promotion on it. On the packaging it read that 'as a new customer your ppromo will be applied automatically'. Mine has not. It still shows 6 gb on the website and on the phone app. How do i get this sorted please?

  • nicoleloisee nicole eloise 🏳️‍🌈♿️💀💄 (@nicoleloisee) reported

    @securedspirit @O2 I love that you do this bc complaints outweigh praise so much in customer facing jobs, like in the four years I was at Maccies we got TWO praise things (one for me obvs bc I’m amazing) so it really makes a difference when people do this 😭
