The worst network I have been with so far. The whole of my village is a notspot. Their coverage tracker is way off what it says it is and their customer services will repeatedly fob you off. I wish I had avoided them totally and regret ever getting a contract with them. Once this contract is up I will be telling the to jog on. I recommend everybody else to do the same.

Apart from blurred onhold 'music' it all began well enough: helpful and very pleasant Matthew happy to re-activate my old sleeping Nokia. Quickly sent me a sim. But there it ends. Next stage, on landline, unavoidable, was a morass of distorted music, long waits, a totally stupid robot responder. Even allowing for epidemic, this does not indicate a competent company.

This company is gross. Kept my mother trapped in a contract, renewed it without her agreement and charged her ridiculous prices for services she never even used. She has been trying to get out of it since 2016. 5 bloody years ago. And now she has had to pay £500 for a contract they said end in 2023!!! The nerve of these people. I hope they feel sick taking advantage of others, we can't afford to be in this situation.

A carrier pigeon can send information quicker than O2's network. I still have 12 months on my contract and I'm counting down everyday until I can do away with the UK's worst provider.

I stick with O2 because I get a signal in my rural locality and I find the signal is good nationwide even when I'm with people who are complaining they have no signal and they turn out to be on EE or Vodafone. The big big big problem is their appalling customer service and their ability to make a complete mess of anything you ask them to sort. Two years ago it took me several hours to sort a mess after change of contract. Now, I am trying to resort the contract, the chatline made a complete mess of it yesterday and today I have spent the whole morning on a chat and they will not ring me or answer the phone to sort it - they just keep messing up the chat - I think they are doing it on purpose to try to charge me £27 rather than let me use the £15 sim bundle I am trying to swap my number onto. I'm now gonna sit and have a chat with Siri, Cortana or Bixby so I can feel like I'm having a chat with an intelligent being after O2's chat team have totally messed with my head

Thank you thank you thank you to both Ayesha and Chegan. I'm SO grateful for their help. This would be 5 star review but unfortunately I had to call twice and wait on hold for a long time to resolve my issue, but other than that the service was fantastic. I had a nightmare with phone charges from Qatar Airways, no fault of O2 at all, but the advisors were friendly, kind, compassionate and happy to help me. I'm so glad and relieved that good customer service still exists. Can't say how thankful I am.

Apalling customer service. I ended my contract (Ive been a customer for decades), as i emigrated. Paid to leave my contract, waited the 30 days notice, they shut my O2 app access down and told me to wait for a final bill. I told them if there was any difference, i would have to organise money as my UK bank account would no longer be active. No issue they said, we will refund to another UK account for you. Heard nothing, got an email saying i dont owe anything, so i rang to check everything was closed etc. Im told O2 owe me money, I said great, youll have to repay it to another card as the previous payment card is no longer active, person went to check with supervisor. 25 minutes calling from abroad and am then told, they will refund to my card that is no longer active and then i need to ring my bank and sort out getting the money back from them! Im not even sure you can make a transaction to a card that is no longer active???? They cant refund me any other way apparently. The person had a terrible command of English and couldnt even pronounce my simple English name correctly!! So, O2 have my money. Thieves!!!

Went to 02 in Westfield (Stratford) yesterday and to O2 in the O2 today and must congratulate both shops on the work they have done to keep everyone Covid safe. The entrance to the shops are closed with a "rope" barrier, there is plenty of hand sanitizer, the seats are placed behind lines on the floor, there are acrylic barriers everywhere and the staff wear masks. As well as this the service was great! Must recommend!

If I could give O2 no stars I would! I've tried to cancel my contract since the beginning of October, I've send the brand new phone back unused and unopened. I've spent countless hours on hold waiting for someone to help, the advice and help I've received is the worst I've ever experienced! I'm being sent threatening letters and emails constantly to make a payment for a phone I've not had since the beginning of November! I've made so many calls and have been reassured countless times of the numerous administration errors made. I will now have to seek legal advice for a cease and desist because I own you nothing at all! Con artist and scammers!

A free upgrade! Upgrade on us... You forget to mention that your prices are not even competitive! It’s a downgrade for my wallet! I keep on being told though it’s better quality... hmmm! I don’t like #complaining at the best of times but this is the greatest lie that o2 could of ever come up. I have contacted o2 about this on three consecutive times about this upgrade and their prices are stupid! A 36month #contract should not be costing me more than 24months... even on a newer phone. To add I request a call back from the #outbound team and they can’t even be bothered to contact me! I am with Carphone warehouse/Mobiles.co.uk and if they want my business now or in the future, they are going about this very wrong. Customer service and business attitude of this is not going to last very long... where as nobody in customer support has spoken to me badly or treated me badly, the above speaks louder than words! Awful! Not impressed at all! I wonder if Carphone warehouse are able to help at all? 🤔🤔

60 mins+ for customer services. The "as new" phones are grade C are best. When you get to speak to them it is like they don't care. just avoid o2 if you can.

O2...worst network in UK. Can't get phone signal in the middle of Edinburgh. 4G almost non-existent. Support is a special level of hell. Trying to leave O2 is like nothing else I have ever experienced. Round and round in circles. My O2 app, website, website chatbot, chat with agents, calls to call center. Want to unlock your phone so you can go to a new network? That will be 7 DAYS. The call centre people say..."pop in a new SIM and off you go". Not true. You call back. "Oh, I see your phone is blocked, and locked, and latched and needs unblocked unlocked unlatched undressed unfettered." Eh? "I have fixed it. Just wait until the next time St Swithens Day falls on a Tuesday that begins with F and happens during a leap year and a full moon." How many days now, I do not know. It's all a blur now. I just want to get the hell off O2. Please let me go.

You have to call up to cancel yout 02 subscription. I have no phone number (my 02 subscription is uniquely for data on my tablet). This is highly inconveninent. On top of this they require a 30 day warning? So it looks like I will have to go to a phisical store to resolve an issue that should be easily solvable through their website.

So I moved to 02 in October having been with Vodafone for over 10 years. This is the worst company in terms of customer service. 02 took my direct debit every month and sent me a letter saying I had not paid. Spoke to the rudest woman in history called Kaylnne. She refused to help then after a bit of an argument she decided to remove my sim from the network....she basically sabotaged my phone. I use this phone for business and have now lost work and money solely due to Kaylnne. I have read that this illegal so will be following legal route to get this resolved. Please please do not use 02 otherwise they will ruin you and your business.
