  • jamieriddell Jamie Riddell (@jamieriddell) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hey @O2 who can I talk to about unlocking a phone. I've paid up and out of contact. Online form says no because of too many attempts ( no idea what my customer service code was) but I have all my account details.

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @teamIPSE Without a doubt! And phone signal! It is appalling how bad the signal is in parts of the UK outside of London! I am 4 minutes from the Cardiff city centre with no signal! #howareyoumeanttorunabusiness @o2networks @O2 @giffgaff

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 This has always been an issue. We are with giffgaff whom I believe use your signal. I have tried everything. I have even bought a booster, but the reception coming into the booster isn’t enough to even make the booster work. Very frustrating. I have to sit in a window 4 reception

  • pwilliamsevents Paul Williams Events (@pwilliamsevents) reported from Tongwynlais, Wales

    @jolilford @O2 Your kidding me!!! I have contacted customer services 3 or 4 times. Shocking service

  • gingio Shane (@gingio) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @jgfoxy @O2 @ThreeUK Good choice! I love being with 3 and find my signal is much better than that on my work phone which is o2.

  • daunce4thstreet Garry Dauncey (@daunce4thstreet) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    Never use @O2 recycle! sent them a phone that was in perfect condition & now they say the phone is damaged and are offering peanuts for it. If it’s damaged blame the flimsy packaging you send.

  • callumcrowley Callum Crowley (@callumcrowley) reported from Liswerry, Wales

    @O2 customer service are an absolute joke - can’t wait to change my provider #pathetic

  • callumcrowley Callum Crowley (@callumcrowley) reported from Liswerry, Wales

    @O2 customer service is the worst - transferring me to the sales team knowing they’re closed to fix an error that’s theirs. Can’t wait to change providers - pathetic

  • HywelButcher Hywel Butcher (@HywelButcher) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Top tip - don’t join @O2 - incompetent and useless! First no 4G, now no signal or data at all 🤯

  • Statto1927 Simon Hiscocks (@Statto1927) reported from Barry, Wales

    @O2 2/2 it’s like someone deliberately switches off the internet on match days, but I’m sure that doesn’t happpen.....😉 Signal is perfectly fine there usually, & if it’s vol7me of people, why are other able to connect seems like an O2 thing as my son & daughter also have problems..

  • LisardoVivas Lisardo Vivas (@LisardoVivas) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 @tig1985 I’m in cardiff with same issue

  • ieuanbeal15 Ieuan-Rhys Beal (@ieuanbeal15) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 your live chat service is garbage. 15

  • staceyjhubbard Stacey J Hubbard 🐧 (@staceyjhubbard) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    There is always some kind of problem with my @O2 order. Its even more frustrating seeing on here people have just walked into the store and been able to collect the phone without the relevant email saying its ready to collect. How do they know they are distributing the right

  • pwilliamsevents Paul Williams Events (@pwilliamsevents) reported from Tongwynlais, Wales

    Totally disappointed with @O2 customer service. A number transfer from a consumer account to business took 8 days when I was told it would take 24 hours. 3 phone calls to customer service and still not 100% sorted. #totallycrapexperience

  • staceyjhubbard Stacey J Hubbard 🐧 (@staceyjhubbard) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Also when I highlighted my issues over the phone and through the Webchat @O2 do not seem very concerned or understanding 😔

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @RobBruceK @ThreeUK @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK No awful. Just spent 5 days with no data/calls due ti Insufficient bandwidth. My family and friends who were with O2/BT/Vodaphone had no problems. Worst ever. So regret leaving previous provider last month. Their coverage checker is inaccurate too

  • Statto1927 Simon Hiscocks (@Statto1927) reported from Barry, Wales

    @O2 It’s CF11 8AZ. ardiff City Stadium. My point is that I can hardly get any connectiveity with a 4G signal showing. Someone sat next to me with EE can connect. Granted it’s a sports stadium but this was 60m before kick off with barley anyone in there. Happens every match 1/2

  • CJLittlemore Callum James Littlemore 🔶 (@CJLittlemore) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 I woke up this morning to find I’ve been totally cut off. I can’t make calls, send texts or use my mobile data. All of this is kinda important for my work as I’m self employed - I can’t call your customer service line to see what the issue is. Can you look into it please.

  • bethanjane22 Beth (@bethanjane22) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    When I renew, @virginmedia offer free AirPods with some plans and @O2 do the same! So much for customer loyalty, they just want more and more money! 🤬

  • peterkin1010 Peter MacCabe (@peterkin1010) reported from Barry, Wales

    @pinecone95 @O2 It's coming along slowly but surely. No sign in Barry or Cardiff yet.

  • Nathdanbrown Nathan Brown (@Nathdanbrown) reported

    @O2 Customer services. A Google Pixel 4. No reference number. I've had to call them myselves today and nothing has been done to resolve this. Was told I'd get written confirmation I'd receive a call back. Still nothing.

    @O2 Hello, thanks for your reply. No VPN or anything like that, I’m afraid. I have asked a couple of acquaintances also on O2 UK and they experience the same issue.
