    Hi @O2 can you confirm if you are having issues with iPhone users SIMs please. Called customer service who have told me that you are but not seen anything reported online. My SIM in my iPhone 12 Pro Max lost service 2 hours ago and is now showing as Not Provisioned. Thanks. J 💙

  • Andy_TheGrouch Andy (@Andy_TheGrouch) reported from Bryn, England

    @O2 no chance i’m renewing, genuinely shite network coverage, cant make call when driving without it sounding like someone is under water & call failing. Mast been down in Ashton for over a week. Phone basically useless. Troubleshooting links are pointless - not good enough.

  • nuttyhill Patrick Veale (@nuttyhill) reported from Warrington, England

    @O2 why does your signal seem to be terrible everywhere now? Even in town centres. I know you've partnered with @virginmedia but you didn't have to share their service quality

    I really wish @O2 can sort out the issues in Horwich. Trying to contact your insurance and police etc after a break in is extremely frustrating when there's no bloody signal 😡😡

  • kea11y Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

  • greenbhoy1 Paolo Mac (@greenbhoy1) reported from Prescot, England

    Thread: Twitter people I need some help. I’ve had my broadband with @SkyHelpTeam in excess of 15 years & my mobile with @O2 for not far off. I used up my data early this month, only happened a couple of times that. Topped up for 1GB on Wednesday for £10 & already it has gone.

  • itspaulactually Paul (@itspaulactually) reported from St Helens, England

    Nah, @o2, you’re *************** now. If I’m in a crowd of more than 10, I get no signal. Tear up my contract now. @ee, you game?

    @O2 why is it impossible to cancel Disney+? Disney+ say it has to be done via MyO2. MyO2 gives no option to cancel. Advisor said I need to do it on MyO2. Just keep being passed about and it’s getting frustrating now! Please can you help?

    Terrible service from @dhlexpressuk Ordered my daughters first mobile, should have been delivered (next day) last Thursday. Still sat in their warehouse with no clue when I’ll get it. Promised today but it’s still sat there. @O2 have been great as usual but DHL are failing you.

    @O2 Hi - I sent you a DM an hour and a half ago, I know you're busy but any idea when someone will be able to help?

  • iamneilpearce Neil P (@iamneilpearce) reported

    @O2 I was wondering if you had any plans to introduce a service worthy of this century. Truly abysmal. Hardly get a service at home in London. In Bournemouth now, might as well not take the phone out.
