    @O2 hi. I have Disney+ free till end month, when it then becomes £5.99. I saw on o2 offers I can add it for £3.99. Do I need to cancel and re add for the discount or will the £2 off auto apply when it becomes chargeable? Thanks

  • JamesRoberts330 James Roberts (@JamesRoberts330) reported from Halewood, England

    @VodafoneUK @O2 Hi James, I stupidly recycled my iPhone X with O2 and wow it was the worst thing I ever did tbh. Took the phone into store on 15 Sept and still awaiting cleared funds to credit my account 🤬. For future reference can I take phones into the Vodafone store to trade-in? Thanks 👍

  • Is_Me_Ben Ben Winstanley (@Is_Me_Ben) reported from Aspull, England

    @O2 incorrectly charge £XXX to our bank account. Admit this was done in error. We have to wait until 6th Jan 2021 before it can be refunded. Even then, we have to call back to request it on the day. Why do we put up with this type of customer service??

  • marikapaprik marico (@marikapaprik) reported from Walkden, England

    Please tell me @O2 why I have so many issues calling you up? You cut off my phone and every time I try to call up to get it reconnected it’s a damn hassle?

  • howieweiner Howie (@howieweiner) reported

    @O2 Well, I never got a response. Found a phone number. Was on hold for over an hour then it disconnected. Your quick to take my money, but impossible to get it back. Terrible customer service. Forced onto @02 from Virgin. Big mistake.

  • davegilsenan Dave Gilsenan (@davegilsenan) reported

    @O2 I had really good service and data speed in Fuerteventura.....at home its awful 😖

  • andrew_axfordGB Andrew Axford 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@andrew_axfordGB) reported

    @O2 Bizarre as 2 of our 3 connections are working fine. The one that isn't working was ported across from Vodafone. Is there an issue with your routing?

  • danb94_ Dan (@danb94_) reported

    @O2 Does anyone actually work at your call centres? I’ve spent 2 hours of my day trying to get in contact with you. New customer and not impressed…

  • chelle7719 chelle (@chelle7719) reported

    @O2 Is there an issue with topping up via phone 4444 with a debit card at the moment I’ve been trying through out the day and it says unsuccessful? Please help

  • meganevans81 Megan Evans (@meganevans81) reported

    @O2 im amazed with less than a month of my contract left your sales team wouldn’t offer an early upgrade, even when I said I was going to leave the network otherwise, they should be better retained in customer retention. Currently paying £55pm for an iPhone XS - abysmal

  • davepakey71 Dave Pakeman (@davepakey71) reported

    @LutzSchueler how about sorting out customer services & networks problems it’s 2023 you should have at least 4g & full signal across the uk @o2 are so far behind other network’s providers

  • Boychicken Boychicken (@Boychicken) reported

    @O2 trying to provide you with my PAC but it's actually impossible to get through to your CS. Worst customer service ... or complete lack of in a long, long time. Seriously going to look elsewhere. Why did you do this @virginmedia ?
