    @virginmedia I would happily self serve online, via a browser or app, as you incessantly encourage me to do, but when the page says “oops something went wrong, we’re unable to change your package online”, its very frustrating. @O2 will help you soon!

  • PattersonLela1 Lela Patterson (@PattersonLela1) reported from Barry, Wales

    @O2 I didn’t receive an alert and neither did my family. It’s a fantastic idea, though! Are all Network operators doing this? :)

  • divyaparikh_ Divya (@divyaparikh_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 Thanks for all the help @O2! Just got a call saying matter has been resolved.

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    What is the point of complaining to @o2? Complaint sent 06/09 multiple times chased up formally 20/11 no reply now 06/0/21. Told someone looking at as a priority still nothing @MarkEvansO2

  • nopantsuk Nick Thorogood (@nopantsuk) reported from Llanharan, Wales

    @O2 my number should be ported to you today that I requested yesterday morning. I’ve had no confirmation texts or emails though and number still on old network. Any ideas?

  • ChrisEddy_7 Eddy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@ChrisEddy_7) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    It’s come to something when you can get 4 bars of 4G signal walking between Benidorm and Albir in Spain but can’t even get 3 bars of 3G signal in Cwmbran South Wales 👀 @o2

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 guys is there a backlog in complaints? I responded to a complaint on the 06/10/20 no reply, 20/11/20 no reply. I’ve now sent a further email today and I’ve no faith in it being responded to. Original complaint was 04/09/20.

  • Daniel_Lyddon Daniel Lyddon (@Daniel_Lyddon) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    (1/3) Sad to say that @O2 are now trying to charge me for a service never used, when I cancelled a mis-sold contract within the 14-day cooling-off period. Almost two months later they're now saying they're going to charge me a late payment fee, plus the bill...

  • BristolOli Bristol Oli (@BristolOli) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @BS3Rob @O2 Glad it wasn’t just me - No signal anywhere near the ground

  • PattersonLela1 Lela Patterson (@PattersonLela1) reported from Barry, Wales

    Hi @O2. If you received a notification that a sound was played from my phone, please don’t worry. I was just testing out the Find My app on my iPhone, as I’ve never used it before, so I just wanted to check it out and see how it worked. Thank you and sorry. :)

  • Daniel_Lyddon Daniel Lyddon (@Daniel_Lyddon) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    If it wasn't for all the free benefits I got with @O2 Priority, I'd ditch them. Their #CustomerService is abysmal. It's like being in some weird kind of abusive relationship: "we'll treat you like **** but give you lots of free stuff so you'll want to stay with us" 🙄😡

  • Daniel_Lyddon Daniel Lyddon (@Daniel_Lyddon) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    This weather properly has me over a barrel. Mistreatment by @O2 properly has me feeling down. My #CovidVaccine pain is bad. Some days the demons are just too much to battle...but today is not one of those days. Rest, relax, refocus. #MentalHealthMatters #BipolarDisorder
