Worst company I have ever dealt with in my life. Would give zero if that was possible. Been trying to cancel wireless dongle since 10th May. Numerous phone calls with abysmal very difficult to understand advisors, actions promised but simply not carried out. No response to emails. Wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy.

Do NOT go with O2!!! I had been with O2 for the past 12 years, but over the past few years they switched their customer service from the UK to somewhere in Asia. The workers have NOT been trained on O2 products at all. It has taken them 6 months to cancel my airtime plan (which I am fully entitled to in my contract). I also did NOT receive a refund for the past 6 months, even though I wasn’t using the airtime plan (I moved to Australia, so got a new phone provider). I think it’s disgusting that they would do this to someone who has been with them for 12 years. I had been calling them nonstop over these months, and even constantly messaging on the app in which they would always end my chat or hang up the call. Initially they told me I had to wait to cancel my airtime plan (which I did), and then when I contacted them again after waiting, the workers were confused and didn’t know you could split an airtime plan and a device plan. I sent them screenshots of a previous worker who told me I could do this and to wait, alongside screenshots of where it says you can cancel online and also screenshots in the contract. Again, they’d just end the chat or hang up. I’m not sure if they just didn’t want me to cancel or if they are uneducated. Let’s not forget to note that most of the time they do not pick up the phone either, or the chat option says they’re unavailable on the app - so this was EXTREMELY painful when I would get through and they’d end the chat. I never ever complain or leave bad reviews, but I was so frustrated I was crying after each conversation - I’ve never received such poor customer service from a business. Most of the workers I spoke to were also very rude (despite me being polite). Also - somehow from December 2023 to Jan 2024 my FIXED airtime plan increased from £25 to £55. Every time I asked about this they just told me this happened to all phone companies, which is not true. If you want to keep your sanity and YOUR MONEY, do not go with O2.

Terrible customer service. Phone number stopped working as part of the switch and impossible to contact them then because they only allow contacting them by using the phone number as MFA (now broken of course) or via staying on hold for hours... Just give me my money back please! This can't be legal.

I was unknowingly scammed in 2017, and only found out this past October (I know… how stupid of me not to notice). I am now being scammed by O2, because of the constant runaround’s.. and LIES (in my opinion) about refunding the money that I am owed! O2 has acknowledged that I was scammed… but does nothing about refunding my money. It’s been a very stressful, and soul destroying experience. I have been a VERY loyal customer for many, many years.. and never had any problems (that I KNEW about anyway 😂) until October 2023. This is NOT the way to treat customers. I feel like I got scammed twice…

We recently went into the potteries centre branch, stoke on trent. They were terribly busy but looked after us brilliantly, and made sure we were OK until a member of staff was available. We had "steve" who sorted our problem out with ease and was friendly and polite. We want to say thank you

I have all my family on o2 . We recently made a purchase from the Blackpool store. Contract was sold to my wife with a £200 Mastercard included. Recieve by 1st may we are now into 2nd week of June and continuing to chase this down. Never have I experienced such a time where I am having to chase a company for me to stay with them as a customer. Very disappointed. Keep getting told wait another 14 days then another 7 so on ... principal is key!

Terrible signal, coverage, 4g and 5g Had been with vodafone for 15 years or so. However, having an unlimited o2 sim with virgin mega bundle deal when changing tv/internet provider. Assumed that by now there shouldnt be too much difference in signal / coverage. Well, 1 month in, and i was wrong. Reception on o2 is really poor. Coverage is also much worse than vodafone. Both 4g and 5g are awful through o2. Really gutted in stuck with them for 18months to be honest! If service/signal etc is important to you, opt for vodafone over o2.

Awful costumer service and IT. I gave the my PAC code 3 times and got no acknowledgement. I had to call in the end. It took half an hour. I've now received texts saying I'm being charged £8.99 to get phone number changed when it is supposed to be free. I guess I'll have to wait til I have hours to spare to call them and queiry this

I use a special telephone number especially for the disabled. Rang up yesterday and got a really nasty mouth female. Her behaviour was so bad, so l told her off and slammed the phone down. She then sent me a nasty email suggesting that l look elsewhere. We have been with 02 for donkeys years. I hope God strikes these nasty people down with a lightning bolt ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ 👎☹️👎☹️👎☹️👎☹️👎

0 stars if I could - due to 02’s incompetence by removing my online account leaving me no way to pay my bill! I can’t wait for it to get passed to a debt collector so I can actually pay it off! I have the money 02 but can you do your job? Got letters saying you’ve tryed to contact me…no missed calls ect. The number on the letter dosent work. Joke of a company

Just about EVERYTHING to do with customer service and billing.I finally got ( after two months of silence from 02 " COMPLAINTS RESOLUTION " team...a COMPETENT ADVISER.I also got a major shock.It was much WORSE than I feared.I asked when I could expect my bill to fall from the current £80 plus,and how I could end the contract NOW.I was told that I'd have to pay off the replacement tablet I had purchased ,on,I had thought ,a normal 24 month contract.I would now have to pay £670 to LEAVE.I asked what the original price of the tablet was.The answer? £ 480. So...I had been paying monthly for twenty months for this tablet( probably around £10/12 a month....unsure,since no explanation of the cost was ever provided on my bills) and had already paid ,say,at least £200 for a £480 tablet...yet I STILL OWED 02,ACCORDING TO THEIR ARITHMETIC, an absolutely OUTRAGEOUSLY EXTORTIONATE ADDITIONAL £670. HOW THE HELL IS ANY COMPANY PERMITTED TO EXTORT IN THIS WAY WITHOUT ANY GOVERNMENTAL CONTROL OVER WHAT IS ,REALLY...THEFT.?I am contacting Robert Halfon,MP... whose PRIVATE MEMBER'S BILL has been neglected for many months,as those Parliamentary Bills often are...despite the fact that Private Members' Bill's are invariably about issues that are extremely important to CONSTITUENTS(ie..the actual VOTERS AND CITIZENS of our country.Mr.Halfon quite simply wants companies that behave like 02..telecom companies...to be severely punished for misleading,exploiting,lying to ,overcharging and treating their customers with contempt.I suggest that ALL who have suffered such treatment at the incompetent,avaricious hands of 02..write to Mr.Halfon and assist him to have his Bill debated URGENTLY...NOW.

Absolutely appalling customer service! After being a long term loyal customer for 15 years I’ve today ported my number to another provider. After 15 years with O2 I was randomly sent a text and email advising that due to a billing system upgrade my plan can no longer be support please call us…. After wasting five hours on hold to the “special” number I contacted normal customer service who are all clearly off shore and very very rude! Multiple advisors said they can only look at the new 360 billing system and transferred me to only then be cut off! I’d had enough and after contacting the CEOs office to only be robbed off again was the final straw! Just like O2s parent company Virgin Media the customer is at the bottom of the priority.

If I could give no stars I would. I am not even a customer but the 02 onanists keep sending me letters at my home address for a man who does not nor ever has lived at my address I have told 02 this a total of 28 times by returning letters, "not at this address return to sender", 2 phone calls, numerous e mails, 3 separate letters along with contacting the Ombudsman of which I have advised 02 in e mails all of these communication methods have been ignored and I am now getting debt collection letters. My dogs would have a better understanding of correcting and updating records than these mooncalves 02. I have even suggested they come and check as the obviously do not believe me. Avoid this company.
