  • ChrisEddy_7 Eddy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@ChrisEddy_7) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    It’s come to something when you can get 4 bars of 4G signal walking between Benidorm and Albir in Spain but can’t even get 3 bars of 3G signal in Cwmbran South Wales 👀 @o2

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia @O2 Why is your Hotspot so poor? Never connects!

  • DennerSusan susan denner (@DennerSusan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 Customer service shocking! No service on phone since 24th May, SIX calls made to your call centre to resolve issue - now being told to wait for

  • nopantsuk Nick Thorogood (@nopantsuk) reported from Llanharan, Wales

    @O2 my number should be ported to you today that I requested yesterday morning. I’ve had no confirmation texts or emails though and number still on old network. Any ideas?

  • STJonesx S T Jones (@STJonesx) reported from Alway, Wales

    Hi @O2 as you’re aware I’ve been on no service now for over 3 weeks, any updates yet or? Or do I just continue to pay £60 a month for a phone I can’t use unless I leave my house ?? If someone with a brain cell can get in contact that would be fab 👍🏻

  • BristolOli Bristol Oli (@BristolOli) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @BS3Rob @O2 Glad it wasn’t just me - No signal anywhere near the ground

  • Daniel_Lyddon Daniel Lyddon (@Daniel_Lyddon) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    If it wasn't for all the free benefits I got with @O2 Priority, I'd ditch them. Their #CustomerService is abysmal. It's like being in some weird kind of abusive relationship: "we'll treat you like **** but give you lots of free stuff so you'll want to stay with us" 🙄😡

  • flowersshanice S H A N I C E (@flowersshanice) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 @Gropinvillain In all these years I’ve been with @O2 I’ve never ever had nothing for bro g a loyal customer, maybe it’s time I cha he networks after my contract is finished!!

  • Daniel_Lyddon Daniel Lyddon (@Daniel_Lyddon) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    This weather properly has me over a barrel. Mistreatment by @O2 properly has me feeling down. My #CovidVaccine pain is bad. Some days the demons are just too much to battle...but today is not one of those days. Rest, relax, refocus. #MentalHealthMatters #BipolarDisorder

  • Lea_May_ Lea French (@Lea_May_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 don't recommend upgrading with o2. Terrible service, can't speak to anyone on the phone and waited for over a week for my delivery that was due on Monday!

  • Garethbird85 gareth bird (@Garethbird85) reported from Newport, Wales

    @O2 can someone from customer service contact me please

  • divyaparikh_ Divya (@divyaparikh_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 Thanks for all the help @O2! Just got a call saying matter has been resolved.

  • PattersonLela1 Lela Patterson (@PattersonLela1) reported from Barry, Wales

    @O2 I didn’t receive an alert and neither did my family. It’s a fantastic idea, though! Are all Network operators doing this? :)

  • STJonesx S T Jones (@STJonesx) reported from Alway, Wales

    When you’ve not been able to make any calls or texts whilst at home for the last 2 weeks as your phone is constantly on no service! 😡😡 take your time resolving this issue @O2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • STJonesx S T Jones (@STJonesx) reported from Alway, Wales

    3rd week of no signal and @O2 in absolute NO rush to fix the issue. Can’t wait to cancel my contract this week 🥳

  • PattersonLela1 Lela Patterson (@PattersonLela1) reported from Barry, Wales

    Hi @O2. If you received a notification that a sound was played from my phone, please don’t worry. I was just testing out the Find My app on my iPhone, as I’ve never used it before, so I just wanted to check it out and see how it worked. Thank you and sorry. :)

  • BristolOli Bristol Oli (@BristolOli) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @BS3Rob @O2 @WBA Been horrendous for weeks - Can’t complete a call without having to call back numerous times - BS3 probably the worst of them all but M4 corridor from Cardiff to Bristol is a close second

  • Daniel_Lyddon Daniel Lyddon (@Daniel_Lyddon) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    (1/3) Sad to say that @O2 are now trying to charge me for a service never used, when I cancelled a mis-sold contract within the 14-day cooling-off period. Almost two months later they're now saying they're going to charge me a late payment fee, plus the bill...

    @O2 @nadiarosemusic Be careful. O2's signal has gone poor and their customer service is even worse!

  • BethJGroom Bethany Jayne (@BethJGroom) reported

    @O2 I’ve been in Paris since Sunday and despite getting a text to say I can use my phone, my datas not working! And when I selected my package it was to use in Europe and the USA!

  • ArminderDahul Arminder Dahul (@ArminderDahul) reported

    Last time I was with @O2 was in 2015. Left the network as it was so bad in central London of all places. Joined a week ago only for the Volt benefits, and it’s worse than before. The best I get is 3G. Not sure why @virginmedia merged with them! Ridiculous.

  • shab255 S Suleman (@shab255) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Virgin media why have you declined my Quidco cashback. If you don’t want to honour the cashback why offer it? What’s the reason for declining? There is no reason. I will post my negative review for other to be aware of this. Not a happy customer.

  • edinburghcbt EdinburghCBT (@edinburghcbt) reported

    I have just had the worst ever service from the phone sales team @o2, while trying for the 3rd time to place on order. Hours on phone, passed from pillar post, talked at from a sales member who was disinterested, only to be cut off just before the sale was confirmed! Stressful!

  • JohnBurton John Burton (@JohnBurton) reported

    @O2 the call didn't get that far before it disconnected and they never cashed me back so I think I'm safe. if they can back I'll be careful

  • jongood00 Jon boy (@jongood00) reported

  • edinburghcbt EdinburghCBT (@edinburghcbt) reported

    @O2 Just had worst ever service from your tele sales team. 1.5 hours on phone, past from dept to dept, but no details transferred, spoken at by someone who sounded like trackies already on & was on the couch, beer in hand, only to be cut off before sale went through. Stressful!

  • NathalieBayley Nathalie Bayley (@NathalieBayley) reported

    @O2 hi is there a signal problem? My phone has been on no service for 2 days now

  • markrstuart Mark Stuart (@markrstuart) reported

    @O2 I’m experiencing about the worst customer service from O2 today, once in store and twice on the phone. Been on hold for over 20 minutes each time, speak with a representative who say’s it’s not their department, and when they transfer me I get cut off. Please can you help me
