  • pherlopolus Phullup (@pherlopolus) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    Twice in 2 days I come across an epos system that isn't fit for purpose. Small cafe hadn't got bacon on the breakfast options, and @O2 not being able to sell an existing customer 4 data Sim contracts, despite proving I was a director. Needed a letterhead!

  • MrRichAnderson Richard Anderson 💙🇺🇦 (@MrRichAnderson) reported from Bridgnorth, England

    @O2 I live in Worcestershire and seem to have no mobile data yesterday or today. Other users similar problem so not my phone. Any update?

  • gracielou_xx Gracie xo (@gracielou_xx) reported from Swindon, England

    I can’t believe I was on the phone to @O2 for a good hour and all senior members of staff refusing to come to the phone to answer queries about random, large charges on my bill. Instead leaving a less qualified member to try and help with absolutely no support or assistance 🤢

  • gracielou_xx Gracie xo (@gracielou_xx) reported from Swindon, England

    I also had the young lad on the call say “if I cancel any of your charges today I was told my job would be effected” disgusting @O2 - instead of gas lighting your clients and threatening your staff, perhaps get a member of management to actually do their job and HELP!?

  • Bigglesdaf Andrew (@Bigglesdaf) reported from Wombourne, England

    @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @O2 Try it they seem to be willing to cancel for those who escalate to the ombudsman service

  • Adventure_Rach 🎢👠 Adventure Rachel 🎢👠 (She/Her) (@Adventure_Rach) reported from Perton, England

  • Red_Lab19 Red_Ex_Lab💙 (@Red_Lab19) reported from Wellington, England

    Hi @O2 I'm happy with my service and have used you for years. But if you fund #GBNews I will take my custom elsewhere. This country doesn't need yet more media bias. #DontFundGBNews

  • MixedMagicWoman Teresa Fowler (@MixedMagicWoman) reported

    @O2 Addy is sorted now. Mum&Dad need smaller sims so they can use the Doro smartphones they got from you a while ago. Acct is mum's name. Last time we phoned, she could not remember security answers so no help was given. Any other way to request new sims for both numbers on acct?

  • 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.

  • AjConvict AjConvict (@AjConvict) reported

    @O2 having a slight issue with a phone mast removed in my area so i’ve have had no service for a while now. Any help with this please? 🤞

  • DamianFry1 Damian_Fry (@DamianFry1) reported

    @O2 So someone I know is having issues as their number has been cloned, just wondering what's going on? Not sure why it's happened, could you check it out, They've been getting calls and texts from annoyed people all over the country, It's really wearing them down. #bestnetwork?

  • womersjuliette Juliette (@womersjuliette) reported

    Wondering when I'm actually gonna be able to use my phone outside of WiFi areas.....what am I even paying for?! @O2 . Fed up of it now. No service since Wednesday eve. Not good enough

  • ellzzer Elle Hitchens (@ellzzer) reported

    @O2 at our wits end. No one can help us and as a result of a clerical error on your end regarding a bill for 20 quid - our mortgage application is rejected. No one is responding to us. No department can help #screwed @MoneySavingExp any tips on how to get help??

  • Andy_Aech Andy Aech (@Andy_Aech) reported

    @O2 I can’t seem to log into myo2 on your website. I need help with my contract sim please.

  • MixedMagicWoman Teresa Fowler (@MixedMagicWoman) reported

    @O2 No...lol. My mum is in hospital. She cannot visit a shop and may never be able to if she goes into a home. What do I do now??

  • CarlyxMc Carly (@CarlyxMc) reported

    @O2 Your staff member has just told us while thinking of upgrading that if we hit the spending cap we wouldn’t be able to dial emergency services. When I questioned why as this is normally a free number she said it doesn’t apply to contracts with a cap on them.

  • princessnas Nasreen (@princessnas) reported

    @O2 Yes I can use the telephone to make callls (albeit with very poor signal ) but when I’m outside of wifi no emails/WhatsApp/signal/apps work. I’ve tried all the usual hacks and rebooting- am completely at a loss.
