    @O2 Have changed phones and need a micro sim card. Have PAYG with credit so want to keep same number and credit I have. Ordered a sim card online a week ago and nothing has arrived. Can you help please? New phone sat unused as can’t put standard size sim card in it.

    @O2 what’s going on with the signal in Manchester, absolutely crap. Can hardly get on @SkySportsNews

    @Andyscott01 @JonJlydiatt @ThreeUK @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK Couldn’t care less if it happens with every network. With what’s going on it shouldn’t happen

    @O2 has less than 20 mins to sort their app out. Come on guys, this is so bad

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

    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

    @BattyeB @EE I'm afraid I can't recommend @O2 even if they have good coverage where you are... you can't get any service from them. Been trying to get through for an hour this time #notfitforourpose

    @O2 Yes I need to speak to a personal in a senior position to be able to action and fix several ***** up @O2 have made on my account without getting passed from one department to another each as clueless as the last.

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

    Hello @O2 your network coverage across the UK is awful: there’s about one street in Manchester where I get a useable 4G signal and nowhere else. Definitely isn’t my devise as I’ve just been abroad and the signal worked perfectly. What are my options please?

  • Dr_Bass
    Doctor Bass (@Dr_Bass) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 Hi, my 4G signal over the last few months has been dreadful. I’m currently sitting with 3 bars of 4G and waiting about 10-20 seconds for a picture to download. I thought it was just me but seen plenty others complaining.

  • TourdeMancBloke
    Tony R (@TourdeMancBloke) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 how do you get through to you for a pac code. Been ringing for an eternity and still waiting. It's as if you're ignoring the call so i'll have stay. pretty cr*p service from a main mobile provider. Let me guess #hgvshortageexcuse or #covidexcuse #notfitforourpose @Offcom

    Ruth Thompson (@ruthjustdoit) reported from Macclesfield, England

    @O2 I've been a customer since the late 1990s, before you were T-Mobile. Please don't advertise on GBNews or I shall take my custom elsewhere. Thank you.

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

    @O2 Also sorry - but what’s the point in telling me to use a network checker if you don’t accept the results of the checker? That’s literally your app I’m using and it’s giving me terrible results.

    @O2 No 4G barely works! I never get through a phone call without it cutting out

  • aflanagancarter

    @O2 what is with no service in Manchester?! So bad and un safe!

    1st prize for worst customer service goes to Vodafone. Lied too 3 times, spent a 70mins on chat then to be told to call 191 only to sit on hold for 40mins... I’m done with their ****. any other mobile providers want my business? @VodafoneUK @EE @O2

  • anthonylawson79
    Anthony Lawson MBE (@anthonylawson79) reported from Mottram in Longdendale, England

    @O2 hi, how can a serious look at serious lack of 4G signal strength be looked into? I've been advised to use the O2 signal checker which I have done and it always says that my area is at FULL signal strength. This just isn't the case. 4G since covid is atrocious :0(

    If your phone doesn’t ring and can’t send messages because of zero signal for two years. When you want to leave should you pay the “early exit fee” ?? @MartinSLewis ? Because trying to talk to @O2 about it is made extremely stressful by their “system”.

  • zooba
    Steve Dower (@zooba) reported

    @willmcgugan @O2 Doesn't sound any worse than any of the rest of them, tbh. Call their line to cancel your service, then tell them exactly what you need in order to not cancel and you'll probably get it. That line is the real customer service.

    @kokeshimum @O2 Left them for Smarty earlier in year. Bill went from £24 and shite service to £8 20 Years A Customer and nothing from them.

  • Phil_Taylor_4
    Phil M Taylor (@Phil_Taylor_4) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 The whole of UK telecoms is way behind many other developed parts of the world. Everyone has 5G capable gadgets but our networks are generally not up to 5G. More and more devices are connecting so speeds are not keeping up to demand. It’s very very poor.

  • mankian4783

    @kokeshimum @O2 02 is awful. Joined 3 network years ago. Miles better

  • PolishBadger
    R⚽️y Kent (@PolishBadger) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 o2 is total overpriced garbage. Been with them for 20 years because they convinced me somehow alternatives are even worse. Happily binned them this year and switched.

  • GymItalian83
    John Sabian (@GymItalian83) reported

    @kokeshimum @O2 I think it’s most of the UK. I’m on EE and the network used to be good, but the last few years it’s been poor

  • garynetchells
    𝕁𝕠𝕣𝕕𝕪 (@garynetchells) reported

    What is it with the infrastructure of mobile networks in the UK when you can get a signal - at all on a train?! Why is that? Why in 2026 with a digital generation can I not access an email on a train? It’s ridiculous @O2 @VodafoneUK @EE
