    Struggling with my 2 month old @SamsungMobile #s21 bought with you @O2 .... I've tried calling but my phone keeps cutting the connection off. I think the RAM is faulty as I can't run more than one app at a time (my S10 does with ease) please help!!

  • Kierbro Kieran Brown #FRSA 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@Kierbro) reported from Camberwell, England

    @O2 Tried that. Unfortunately because of when I took out my last contract (just before you changed your terms) I’m stuck with this old handset until I can pay off £700 remaining on device. Shame as the new amazing iPhone camera would help my burgeoning photograph business massively.

  • Gill_Barr Gill Barr💙 (@Gill_Barr) reported from Islington, England

    @O2 I need idata bolt on to get back visual voicemail on iPhone 12 Pro. I just can’t see how to do that. My visual voicemail worked fine until a couple of weeks ago and I really use it. Please help! Thanks

    @O2 I need to speak to someone about having no network reception at my house (for a year now) but online chat function remains off and I can't call you because I have no reception. What should I do?

  • richardmorrisuk Richard Morris (@richardmorrisuk) reported from Richmond, England

    Hi @O2. So having cut me off twice on Sunday, told me to book a call, called but couldn’t deal with my issue , promised to call back within 48 hours (didn’t) - now I’ve had a call from a third party? Have you given them my data or have you been hacked?

  • Mr_Rafal Raf🇵🇱🇪🇺🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 (@Mr_Rafal) reported from Hackney, England

    @O2 hi guys! Quick question for you. Since we, me and my wife, joined you from different network we receive a lot of spam and scam in text messages and phone calls. Are you sure our details are protected properly? Calls are automated but use our full names! It actually worrying.

  • QueenMarkgaret scared of the mark (@QueenMarkgaret) reported from Ilford, England

    Hi @O2 I keep trying to call o2 to pay off a balance but it keeps saying ‘we cannot verify your security info’ and I cannot get any further. I am trying to change my tariff and have been trying for 2 days now. I have had the same conversation with 4 different people. Help.

  • TeyLove_ T é y 🌺💜 (@TeyLove_) reported from Islington, England

    @O2 your network is shocking! I haven’t been able to use my data for two days this is not what I pay £50 a month for😤 o2 guru isn’t even working and can’t get through to a call handler so how am I supposed to get this fixed?????

  • esrose2003 Liz Rose 💙 (@esrose2003) reported from Richmond, England

  • nickshuttle Nick Shuttleworth (@nickshuttle) reported from Ealing, England

    @O2 can you explain why I cannot transfer my eSIM card electronically? Surely that is the whole point of eSIMs? I now have to wait 5 days to receive a new pack before I can transfer my phone. Seems archaic. Unimpressive customer service.
