    Is anyone else having network and mobile data issues? As soon as I leave WIFI I get “no service” instead of O2 and “E” for connectivity. At a push I get a low signal and very poor 3G. Raised it with O2 online support but impossible to speak to anyone about it ATM @O2 @Apple

  • RoyGalaasen Roy Galaasen (@RoyGalaasen) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 Sitting here at Costa enjoying a latte. Not enjoying the Internet connection that is utterly rubbish as always. It has been for a few years, I gave up on it hopefully being fixed. Paying for 5GB data that I can’t ever spend because it just is slow as snails.

  • richiechuff Richie Knight (@richiechuff) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @TheO2 I wouldn’t attend any venue associated with this **** network @o2 the reason they are able to sponsor you is because of revenue and theft from illegally withholding funds from customers like myself and failure to meet their own complaint timescales @TelefonicaUK

  • mark_pbs Mark Johnson (@mark_pbs) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 I see your response is as fast as your network? I wonder if there is anyone out there 🤔

  • EdwardRamsdale Edward Ramsdale (@EdwardRamsdale) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Is anyone having trouble receiving calls on the @O2 network?

  • richiechuff Richie Knight (@richiechuff) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 Still no response regarding my complete absolute ripoff merchants @TelefonicaUK your operation is crap and your customer I don’t care agents need training in how to talk to people or do you purposely employ the most vile people in society ?

  • helendoris2012 Helen Evans (@helendoris2012) reported from Stafford, England

    @O2 where is my phone I ordered on 3rd December? Customer for 20years and appalling service. I wouldn't recommend to anyone or @DPDgroup_news who @O2 are blaming.

  • mark_pbs Mark Johnson (@mark_pbs) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 @richardbranson I would have left your Virgin mobile piggybacking @EE ! Miles better network and service although more costly!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • vic101072 v mwenye (@vic101072) reported

    @O2 I have reached end of contract with O2 , rang them mid October to cancel my contract, I paid the a month I owed them the remaining month over the phone. They refused to cancelled my account 1040043374. Shame on O2 on £72 charge after the call

  • missannawood Anna Wood (@missannawood) reported

    @strandedatsea I'm with @O2. I have a 2 part contract: one element is a 0% loan for the phone over 2 or 3 years & the other part is "line rental and usage". I just paid off the phone. I can now part-ex it, or not, but my monthly bill just halved. I'd never buy upfront when 0% finance available.

  • Sampearson5 Samantha Pearson (@Sampearson5) reported

    @O2 I’ve got virgin and trying to get Disney plus deal, keeps trying to log onto my o2 which I don’t have an account for. How do I set up as a virgin customer? Thanks

    Is @O2 down? Mine and my friends signal is terrible, it’s taking ages for webpages to load and I have tried turning my phone on and off too…

  • lisareid3 lisa reid (@lisareid3) reported

    @O2 I’ve been a loyal customer for over 15 years, paying contracts for 5 children in my household and my own. Now you repay me by taking £560 out of my account without warning. Continued in comments…

  • jane_saothong Suangsuda (Jane) (@jane_saothong) reported

  • JayneMit Jayne Mitchell (@JayneMit) reported

    @o2 I have had no signal in #Harrogate for months. Mast down for all that time? How is that ok? When do you expect it to be mended please? Do I get a refund of my monthly payments? Not getting the service I am paying for.

  • TheresaAlison1 Theresa Jane 👄 (@TheresaAlison1) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 They are pensioners my mother is nearly 78 years old who doesn't know anything about tech etc. It's your service why should they be charged for help ? They want it sorted I've tried everything for them when I visited looked up solutions etc but none worked.

  • RowanMead RowanMead (@RowanMead) reported

    @O2 I still haven’t had a call from the fraud dept - my account was hacked and I’m signed up to another contract which I never asked for. How can this be cancelled?

  • Ian_Coy1972 Ian72 (@Ian_Coy1972) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia Barely get a decent signal in Manchester. I’m on a 5G contract, you provide 3-4G shadily most of the time. Rubbish.
