  • andyphilipson Bilbo Gubbins (@andyphilipson) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Hey I just received a text claiming to be from yourselves saying there’s been a problem processing my bill and gives me a link to update my payment details. Pretty sure it’s fishing as my details haven’t changed. Can you confirm if I DM you a screenshot? Cheers.

  • ScottSChristie Scott Christie (@ScottSChristie) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Is there an issue with signal in NE29 just now? Mine has been pretty bad for a couple of weeks now. Many Thanks.

  • kathrynbaird_ Kathryn Baird (@kathrynbaird_) reported from Cramlington, England

    @O2 do you actually talk to your customers? I’ve been trying to contact you all week via the app, have called numerous times to be hung up on by an automated service and can’t get through to you at all. You’ve charged me twice for my bill & disconnected me even though I’ve paid!

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    Does anyone use @vodafone in the Northumberland area? Is it any good? I'm currently on @O2 but looking to switch networks as O2 are being extremely greedy with large price hikes on their already expensive network.

  • craigblundred Craig Blundred (@craigblundred) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 hi - my wife has been trying to resolve issue with SMS settings - have disappeared yet again. Spent over an hour on live chat but keeps getting passed to different teams then cut off. Has happened before we know what needs to be done but very poor service now.

  • DarranBlackshaw Darran Blackshaw (@DarranBlackshaw) reported from Seaton Valley, England

    @O2 rang for help and answering machine says ring back in 24hrs and hangs up -really ??

  • rebeccajadetho1 Rebecca Thorne (@rebeccajadetho1) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @O2 It’s still not working

  • Richard_Y1 Richard (@Richard_Y1) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2, any particular reason why signal for mobile data is so poor/pretty much non-existent in the NE30 area?

  • adshill Adam Hill (@adshill) reported from Morpeth, England

    @O2 I’ve just been told that the only way I can use My O2 is to setup a new email account despite My O2 saying it’s the phone number that is the problem. Do I have to have two email accounts just for O2? Seems utterly absurd.

  • sharonhunter72 Sharon Hunter (@sharonhunter72) reported from Ashington, England

    @O2 doorstep phone swap arranged for yesterday as sons I phone 6 days old and faulty , email confirmation saying it would be by 10.30 ! FAmily Waited in all day nothing arrived ! Tracking states phone still at depot …….. very unhappy customer 😡

  • RuxanaNargol Ruxana Nargolwala (@RuxanaNargol) reported from North Gosforth, England

  • _ellwhite_ Ell (@_ellwhite_) reported

    @O2 can someone on your customer services actually do their job. I have been without a phone for over 24 hours due to my eSIM not being processed. Disgusting.

  • jamieonline Jamie Sawicki (@jamieonline) reported

    @O2 please fix your signal in Wimbledon. Close to 10 years and it constantly dips in and out between Wimbledon village and South Wimbledon

  • kerrymarie KerrySouthworth (@kerrymarie) reported

    @O2 I need help. My dad needs his PUK code and your login system online is not working, and your phones are not answering. Please help as a matter of urgency.

  • hanishp02 Hanísh. (@hanishp02) reported

    @O2 why am I hold, once for 17 mins, to get through to someone just for them to hang up on me? And then I ring back to be on hold for 16 mins just for them to hang up on me again? What is this customer services? Whats the best number to ring as 202 seems useless?

  • repeatall iX J Å M Ė S (@repeatall) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Unknown! I asked this question lots and lots of times but I never found out so I cancelled my DDs for 02 and Virgin.

  • MattWBroadley Matthew Broadley (@MattWBroadley) reported

    @o2 I have been trying to cancel a contract for months now, hoping that you will send me an email that I can either reply to, or that gives a number that I can speak to someone on. It is ridiculous that if you have an unactivated SIM, that you can't cancel it. Sort it out!

  • HollyCeo7 Holly Ceo (@HollyCeo7) reported

    Why is your signal soooooo **** everywhere @O2

  • tink2104 kim (@tink2104) reported

    @O2 yet again o2 phone broken for 1 year nothing has happened about repairing it, yet u still take the money for the handset.

  • Decc_CFC Dec Newman (@Decc_CFC) reported

    @O2 I’ve been waiting for my iPad delivery since Tuesday due to multiple address errors, false updates, and hang-ups by your reps. DHL now says it’s delayed again despite O2 confirming delivery today. Please escalate this to your logistics or complaints team immediately!

  • repeatall iX J Å M Ė S (@repeatall) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 No you are not. What you were doing is virtual signalling. You’re pretending that you have a good customer service when it is the complete opposite.
