    Hi @O2. Your website says there aren’t any problems in my area but I can’t make outbound calls. I don’t know if I can receive them. I’ve tried restarting my iPhone but no luck. I’m trying to work from home but I can’t make any calls.

  • ItsVickyBee Vicky Bee (@ItsVickyBee) reported from Liverpool, England

    @O2 not even a week with you and already been told I have to call customer service! This is joke!!! 😤 So angry right now!

  • GaryLiverpool Gary (@GaryLiverpool) reported from Liverpool, England

    Over an hour cut off 5 times from @O2 I know you’re operating a reduced contact centre but this is such a bad customer experience with poor options on your IVR system that result in the female robot saying “thanks for calling O2 goodbye” without even getting any help or an agent

  • Jamie_McGaghey Jamie Mc (@Jamie_McGaghey) reported from Garston, England

  • Dragon2611 Matthew (@Dragon2611) reported

    Ordered an accessory from @O2 so they sent a OTP to the number on my account. Yeh that would be the Data sim, thankfully the router it's currently in does actually support receiving SMS.

  • robeuropean Rob LondonIrish 💙 (@robeuropean) reported

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 The worst Prime Minister in history.

  • TrickyTreesDave ⭐️🌳⭐️ (@TrickyTreesDave) reported

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 Trouble is you struggle to even get a signal with #O2 when you're in the #UK they're shocking, ive had no joy with there customer service either, never will i take another contract out with them what a complete waste of a contract....

  • laurainemaria Lauraine (@laurainemaria) reported

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 Shame Virgin and O2 have such a poor reputation for coverage and customer services though. I would rather stay with EE , a reliable network and great customer service

  • HallworthNeil Neil Hallworth (@HallworthNeil) reported

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 You're claiming the EU would have control over pricing of services in the UK? You haven't thought through how stupid this makes you look - confusing sovereignty issues here!

  • csoanes Chris Soanes (@csoanes) reported

    Great: 15 minutes in a call queue for @O2 customer services. Finally get to a human, who says "Sorry to have kept you waiting, be with you in a moment" and then cuts the call. Nice....

  • ChrisGBurns Chris Burns (@ChrisGBurns) reported

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 You campaigned to allow the others to reintroduce roaming fees. Idiot.

  • DaveCow49404772 Dave Cowan (@DaveCow49404772) reported

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 EE is the best for coverage in my local area. Before Brexshit EE had no roaming charges in EU but because of you I now either have to put up with rubbish signal at home or pay roaming charges. Hardly a brexshit benefit!

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Where is the evidence to support your assertion ?
