  • goonie2008 Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

  • atwal_brice Michael Atwal-Brice He/Him (@atwal_brice) reported from Sheffield, England

    @O2 terrible signal in s63 areas is a mask down or something?

  • srounce Shane Rounce (@srounce) reported from Sheffield, England

    @O2 It’s not in stock for anyone, how about you reply to some other people that DM’ed you over the same issue? The incompetence here is staggering.

  • SLThomas99 Sara Thomas (@SLThomas99) reported from Sheffield, England

    @O2 - 2nd time got through to Customer Services rep Neil Clarke. Excellent service and very informative. A credit to your team and he could certainly have taught the first guy something. Please try to reduce hold times though took me nearly 2 hours in total 😬

  • Steph_HRhodes Steph (@Steph_HRhodes) reported from Grimethorpe, England

    @O2 is an absolute joke. I have little to zero signal at all and my mum has none at all. She has seizures and no way of contacting anyone if anything happens due to this. Absolutely sick of it, been a well over a week. #O2 get it sorted 🤬😡

  • n1cky_snape Nicky (@n1cky_snape) reported from Horbury, England

    @O2 Currently trying to cancel my contact. Tried numerous times and there are never advisors available online. Call waiting time is minimum 45 minutes! I am going to have to pay extra on my contact if I cannot get through due to your poor systems!

  • GlennJHarris Glenn (@GlennJHarris) reported from Sheffield, England

    @O2 how do I cancel an order that I’ve made

  • MarsKathy Kathy (@MarsKathy) reported from Wakefield, England

    @O2 hi. Is there a problem with the QR code or number today for the Greggs offer? Local Greggs had error code so no breakfast roll!!

  • AnnielizzieSten Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @O2 have spent most of day trying to sort my NHS discount - system does not recognise my work email and not keen on sending wage slip details - online and phone contacts not working out - please can you help?

  • LukeA8 Luke (@LukeA8) reported from Barnsley, England

    @O2 Saying there’s now a mast down but it’s useless normally anyway. Terrible.

  • theandycooke Andy (@theandycooke) reported from Barnsley, England

    @O2 On the commute into Sheffield I had issues with signal, at time went to 3G (I can’t remember the last time I saw 3G with @EE). I also had some signal issues whilst at work in the centre of Sheffield & didn’t once achieve a 5G signal.

  • mishiwoo Tom 😷 (@mishiwoo) reported from Sheffield, England

  • theandycooke Andy (@theandycooke) reported from Barnsley, England

    Really glad I managed to leave @O2 and go back to @EE. They said they couldn’t guarantee signal on the 🚂 dropping me down to E like it’s 2005! But I’m here with 5G on EE! #Signal #Connectivity

  • snation85 Sam (@snation85) reported from Upton, England

    @O2 any chance someone can help. Had a new sim delivered. It’s saying sim not provisioned. Can’t call anyone. And your online chat service isn’t available

  • victimsvoice73 Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

    Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

  • srounce Shane Rounce (@srounce) reported from Sheffield, England

    @JordKnowles @O2 They aren’t restocking till late January. Confirmed via phone support. Beyond annoyed.

  • SLThomas99 Sara Thomas (@SLThomas99) reported from Sheffield, England

    @O2 A very mixed service today. Nearly lost the will to live after being on hold for 27 mins then being put on hold and cut off - your first representative didn't even bother to call us back - do you know how frustrating that is! Another 35 mins on hold and finally got through!

  • NathFerguson_CM Nath (@NathFerguson_CM) reported from Bristol, England

    @O2 how long does it take to fix a mass it’s been over two weeks and it’s getting beyond a joke now. 😡😡😡

  • The_Lady_Jade_X Mrs Lady Jade ❤ (@The_Lady_Jade_X) reported from London, England

    Mother in law will deffo b leavin @O2 when her contracts up. She’s been abroad loads n never had issues. Goes Jamaica with new iPhone no issues. Goes to Europe with iPhone and no network. Apparently she needed to call them before n get a bolt. Load of rubbish! CS no help either!

  • JohnBur57441479 John Burch (@JohnBur57441479) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @O2 very disappointed and suprised that after 2 months without mobile service in my home you will not be providing any compensation! Contract up in September. I’ll be off to a different supplier. Anyone reading this please retweet so other users understand this crazy @O2 policy.

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @EE Hi JT. Not yet I’m focussed on having my £742 back from @O2 then I will have a look and start a contract. The customer service and signal is appalling from O2 so I’m looking forward to changing to a reputable service provider.

  • JohnBur57441479 John Burch (@JohnBur57441479) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @Sunny_in_London @O2 Congrats. I’ve been waiting 2 months. No service for me and my wife from @O2 at our home. No compensation either!!

  • Scott_Tanfield Scott FFC Tanfield (@Scott_Tanfield) reported from Maidstone, England

    @suzifulham @O2 Seems to be zero loyalty for long term customers these days. @SkyUK are just as bad, been with them 14 years, honked my bill up from £60 odd quid a month, to the best part of £100, and were disinterested in re-applying my discounts.

  • milonoblet Milo (@milonoblet) reported from Hoylake, England

    @combat_boot @O2 @VodafoneUK @EE I'd recommend EE, best service/coverage. 20% Forces discount through DDS/BLC (DM me if you have neither & will sort you out).

  • adele_1983 •d e l• (@adele_1983) reported from Manchester, England

    @carleyjones1 @O2 No! I never use all my data or minutes. The bill for May- which comes out on 11th June, was only £38 something. I checked the app and I’m up to date. There is no reason to take such a large amount. I can’t even talk after having my tonsils out, it’s a pain in the arse x

  • itsnickelflySK3 🎩👍 Gill Brain 🙈😂 (@itsnickelflySK3) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @O2 How do I make contact with @O2PriorityUK please. I have a complaint enquiry over ticket purchase I need to put to them.. thankyou

  • stairforce John Riley (@stairforce) reported from Stratford-upon-Avon, England

    @Pandamoanimum @O2 I had a major falling out with O2 in 2010 (after being with them for 15 years). Moved to Giffgaff (which ironically uses O2’s network) and never looked back. Nine years later, O2 are still chasing me for the money they say I owe them.
