Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 4,476 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Many customers found the customer service to be poor, with issues like long call times, conflicting information from advisors, and being cut off during calls. People also reported problems with payments, receiving requests for payments that were not due, and difficulties managing multiple contracts. The service itself was often criticized for bad signal, especially in built-up areas and abroad, making it difficult to make calls or use data. Some people were dissatisfied with the lack of clear communication and the difficulty in contacting the right department, often feeling that their issues were not being addressed. However, some customers also noted positive experiences with specific staff members who were helpful, efficient, and professional in resolving their problems, even transferring data or providing good deals.

I'm getting bombarded by Indian SIM replacement scam calls. This type of fraud can be disastrous. The aim is to take over your calls and your security and your finances. O2 HAVE ISSUED NO WARNINGS AND AREN'T INTERESTED IN ALERTING OR PROTECTING THEIR CUSTOMERS.

Pretty appalling. No longer possible to get balance from the phone whilst on Classic PAYG. Online, the balance seems to be a fictitious number. Keep getting cut off when talking to customer services. These all seems too deliberate to get me off this cheap tariff that no longer suits them. Well, I will, by moving to a better provider.

Support is garbage, lies, and doesn't wanna fix or replace phone

They have my phone for repair for more than 2 weeks and they have been lying and giving conflicting information about my phone. First they said it was waiting to arrive when it was already there. Then last Friday they said it was fixed and have tried to send me me back, but Monday saying the phone was with them to see what they could do 🤡
My phone is on warrant.
They are in breach of contract and of their own repair policies and don't wanna send me a replacement phone. Also asking to wait a few more days again. I will be terminating my contract since they can't hold their end of the bargain. Avoid them. Their score on this website says all. It's garbage.
