    @O2 Why are you refusing a contract to a new customer just because they don't have a credit score? Person working full time with a good pay, bank account. Why refusing a contract?

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • irving_sam Sam Irving (@irving_sam) reported

    @O2 Phone mast in my area has been down since 7pm Saturday. Haven't been able to make/receive calls or texts as it says no SIM. Been unable to speak to anyone on web chat to find out when it will be fixed.

  • JoBoakes Jo (@JoBoakes) reported

    @O2 Perhaps answering the dm might help? It’s my birthday today, I’m going out and I have no network.

  • VeronicaCelorr1 Veronica.Celorrio (@VeronicaCelorr1) reported

    @O2 I need help with my order, what is the number that I can call? I wanted to take my current number to O2, but my order shipping email tells me what's my new O2 number. Not what I was expecting. Thanks!

  • Pete86028117 Pete (@Pete86028117) reported

    @O2 ive had my phone stolen and its been 3 days now going back and forth to the store to activate the new sim card with my old phone number! This is a joke. Very poor customer service. I work nights and dont have the freedom and time to make daily trips.

  • JoBoakes Jo (@JoBoakes) reported

    @O2 What’s going on with the network? Both myself and husband have lost signal almost simultaneously. No known issues in the area apparently…

  • drdazman Darren Acutts (@drdazman) reported

    @O2 Dear o2 I switched to you guys but have not received a sim card and so can't'activate' the switch yet but you have invoiced me for days you have not provided me with a service. Is this normal or legal? Can you charge and claim a service tax for a service not provided?

  • CliveDaviesUK Clive Davies #FBPE 💙🔶🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰 (@CliveDaviesUK) reported

    So, @o2 and @virginmedia - Holding an account with both of you seemingly entitles you to 'Volt' 'benefits'. However, these elusive 'benefits' are inaccessible. The O2 website refers you to VM and the VM website refers you to O2 in a never ending loop of typical uselessness....

  • _brett0 Brett A. Piercefield (@_brett0) reported

    @O2 I got it paid. Don't know why the people yesterday had issues. I was done in 3 minutes today.

  • calenzovincenzo Vinnie (@calenzovincenzo) reported

    @O2 Had DD on my virgin account (without giving consent @metpoliceuk) yes charged me £10 and i never used the sim. They now cancel my sim and at the next bill (which i have no idea where i will see it) i have to call again and have a cheques for it. I'm an o2 customer already

  • therealyasinali Yasin Ali (@therealyasinali) reported

    @O2 It was earlier in 2021 so not more than 2 years ago. I’m having a problem with my car insurance company and on the verge of getting fined £500 if I can’t prove a call that I made. I have missed the deadline to send this to them waiting for this log. HELP!!!
