  • jamesrobey1990 James Robey (@jamesrobey1990) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @O2 I am unable to view the bill for my new contract (where I kept my old number) in myo2 as the number is associated with old contract. Unable to speak to anyone. Woeful service.

  • henna_macarena hen (@henna_macarena) reported from Richmond, England

    @O2 The issue has been resolved now after my persistent calling to fix it. Your team deactivated my sim without my permission resulting in me not being able to use my phone for a number of days.

  • Scampboi Daniel Smith (@Scampboi) reported from Croydon, England

    @O2 It's a shame you have shut down your customer service email address. When people would need to co tact you the most. My phone calls are unanswered and the link I was sent to chat to an online help sent me to a defunct website. Your customer service is missing in action

  • ellajack1 Bev Muir (@ellajack1) reported from Croydon, England

    @O2 I cant get through to customer services and its urgent

  • maryhippychick m a r y (@maryhippychick) reported from Hounslow, England

    @O2 It’s being investigated but there was no indication that they would be back in touch with me. I’m concerned that my address will show up with bad credit with both you and other bodies as a result of this fraud.

  • Bex_Stinson BEX (@Bex_Stinson) reported from Camden Town, England

    Update! The problem I need fixing is that I can’t make phone calls. So I can’t ring my energy supplier about being cut off, or my GP about my asthma. My phone won’t call any number at all. I told @O2. Finally. Thankfully, @O2 sent me a DM and asked me to call them to sort it

  • ConlethKane Conleth Kane (@ConlethKane) reported from Hounslow, England

    I’ve been with @O2 for 7 years. I’ve been trying to negotiate an upgrade over the past 24 hours and it has been an actual nightmare. Really bad customer service.

  • iDaffySB Daffy (@iDaffySB) reported from Hackney, England

    Dear @O2, I’m having problems paying my bill, please help..

  • steffiegc Steffie (@steffiegc) reported from Eltham, England

    @O2 Hiya my account email address and phone number is incorrect and I can’t see where to change it - I’ve just upgraded in the app and the email of confirmation been sent to unused email. Please help.

  • Gigiryche Gianluigi PAGHI (@Gigiryche) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    Thank you @o2 for telling me now that you can’t solve my issue with @Apple Watch because “it is not a necessity device”. However when you publicised the deal “AppleWatch plus iPhone”, at the time of my purchase no one at the store mentioned “it’s not a necessity device”.

  • MJPalmer84 MJ Palmer - Mr Gay England 2020 Finalist (@MJPalmer84) reported from Islington, England

    The amount of time I have spent on the phone to them trying to sort it, I can’t find wait to tell them my hourly fee that I want compensating for; how basic is getting a phone that rings! NEVER GO WITH @o2

  • iDaffySB Daffy (@iDaffySB) reported from Hackney, England

    @O2 is there something wrong with your system because I’m unable to pay my bill today, please fix!

  • ScottCanEat ScottCanEat (@ScottCanEat) reported from London, England

  • BenFisherCT Ben Fisher (@BenFisherCT) reported from Islington, England

    We’re not being threatened by some communist tech firm. Imo you should start packaging any of that Huawei crap from China and start sending it back. @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK @bt_uk

  • emmawebster emmawebster (@emmawebster) reported from Camberwell, England

    @O231174239 @O2 I have paid off my device. There is no option to cancel my contract online, it says I need to call but no one picks up!!

  • LebbyE Lebby Eyres (@LebbyE) reported from Islington, England

    I would just like to say I had three back to back chats starting at 12pm today and at that precise moment @O2 went down. WhatsApp coming to the rescue for some but not all. Aargh.

  • CerviF Fran (@CerviF) reported from Walthamstow, England

    I have just had a text from scammers pretending to be @O2 telling me there was a problem taking payment. They asked me to click on a link to confirm bank details. I didn’t. I deleted the text. Please RT and help others.

  • RebeccaW40 RebeccaW40 (@RebeccaW40) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @O2 network is down yet again. This keep happening and is really not good. During a time like this People need to be able to speak to loved ones. This is becoming a regular thing now. Beyond a joke

  • maryhippychick m a r y (@maryhippychick) reported from Hounslow, England

    @O2 I phoned up customer services who passed it onto the fraud department. They ( customer services) were extremely understanding. I haven spoken to your fraud department.

  • SqueakySays Squeaky (@SqueakySays) reported

    @O2 I urgently need to speak with you as well - it’s 4 days now, with 2 O2 phones and NEITHER of them active with a signal. A change of contract/sim really shouldn’t be this hard, especially O2 to O2 🤬🤬

  • CotyHS2 Ian Moss (@CotyHS2) reported

    Hey @EE, how do you measure "best network in the world"? I've tried you. You're worse than @o2 in my area, and o2 are shite. More advertising bollox.

  • LukeShaggyJones Luke Shaggy Jones (@LukeShaggyJones) reported

    @O2 hi there I have an issue, my oppo had a hardware fault a month ago. Phone was unusable but in perfect shape, and I spoke to the people in O2 Huddersfield and they advised me to go through oppo to get it repaired as it was in warranty. I did that and yet again it's broken 1/2

  • Stuboy442 Stuart Abel (@Stuboy442) reported

    @O2 Any update as still down on your status checker

  • GaryEddy15 Gary Eddy (@GaryEddy15) reported

    @O2 Hi, I am based in Cornwall and am struggling for signal everywhere. For the cost that I pay, it needs to be better. I lose connectivity on calls every few minutes and cannot download with data. I have tried your network help guide and still it hasn’t helped. #o2connectivity

  • htimsAJ Al Smith (@htimsAJ) reported

    @O2 how do i go about cancelling my contract. Your service as it stands is pathetic. 5G and never get any internet service no matter where i am. A total failure on your behalf to provide the service in which i pay for.

  • DHunter2103 D Hunter (@DHunter2103) reported

    @O2 no service in Leeds is there an issue???

  • marlatham marc latham. (@marlatham) reported

    @O2 just a heads up from a usually happy customer, the roaming in the USA is dreadful, doesn’t text or allow data (and for £6 a day) turning roaming off now but you may need to speak to your US partners
