Good evening,

I am writing here as I have officially had enough of the poor connection quality with o2 mobile internet. My current plan is - o2 Free Unlimited Smart - which, I pay for on time, every single month. Without question.

As of the past 4 months or so, perhaps longer - I have experienced every single day while at work, inside OR outside of the building - extremely slow - less than 1mb connection, constant connection drop outs, disconnects and of course - for some hours, absolutely no connection whatsoever.

Thinking originally it was my telephone, I upgraded from an iPhone 11 Pro to a Samsung S22 Ultra, and the issue persists. All of my colleagues, who also use O2 have the same issue. Right down to the letter.

I have reported the issue to O2, dozens of times - throughout the time, noting that the connection issue is still present - but instead, I am told on the service checker page “There is no issue.”

This, is a lie. And it’s downright rude and unfair to paying customers, who are long term customers - to have to deal with this. When the connection works - sporadically, I might add - it can be very good, but considering I cannot hold or even maintain a stable enough connection to load a single web page, let alone watch a video - I am extremely upset and rightly so.

I use this phone not only for personal, but for working too - and whether I am trying to place a call to family and/or friends back in my home country, which, is often cut off - or loading an important meeting via Skype - I can forget it.

O2,

Please investigate this issue. It is absurdly unfair that you take the money without any delay - but when it comes to delivering anything above a “meh” service, it makes me wonder why I am even paying you to begin with.

Apologies if this comes across as harsh, but due to an internet connection issue - one of my clients decided to back out of the call and walk away, losing me yet another potential high value customer…

Hi @o2_Flo 

I see it as fraud. You give me a free test card which worked fine. On this basis I sign a long-term contract with your company and after that it stops working. 

I was deliberately misled. I cannot use the service I was promised and you of course keep on billing me.


Hey @Vladislaff,

You can use your mobile contract throughout Germany. Or does your contract not work at any location in Germany? A mobile contract is never tied to a specific location. 

Greetings,

Flo


@o2_Flo have you even read what I said before? It works fine even 1km away from my home. It doesn’t work where I need it the most AT MY HOME!

Is there not anyone competent working at o2 at all? This company is a disgrace to the word service.


This is hopeless. Do you know that access to internet is regarded in Germany as a human right? Half a year without human rights. Way to go O2, I believe in you - you can make it even worse!


Dear @Vladislaff ,

no, it is not.

With mobile phone contracts, usage at a specific address is not guaranteed, as is the case with fixed-line contracts. This is what o2_Flo wanted to tell you.

If you have a general problem that you can't use mobile data anywhere, then we can look for a bug for you.

But if it only doesn't work at one address, then it's usually due to a fault or overload at a base station. You can consult our Live-Check and make a report there, especially when a test card worked fine.

Kind regards,

Andrea


It has been 6 months. Guess I will be celebrating an anniversary of life in Germany without internet next year. 


Hey @Vladislaff,

I'm sorry that the problem has not yet been solved. 
You could also write to our customer service department. Unfortunately, I cannot currently provide any more information here.

It has been 9 months without internet. I am continuing to pay for who knows what. 

What is the status of fixing the cell tower number 180799?


Hey @Vladislaff,

an antenna near your contact address is supposed to be repaired by 10.12.23 🙂 Please let me know if anything has improved. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

Greetings,
Flo


Hi @o2_Flo ,

10.12.23 is Sunday. Since this is Germany where no one would ever work on the weekend you are saying that the antenna is going to be fixed today?:)))) Is this a joke?

Is it you corporate policy to make fun of your customers?


What adds insult to injury is that 10.12 is my birthday 😡


What baffles me is that you admit that there is a problem (and it has been for over 10 months) and you do nothing to solve it.


Hey @Vladislaff,

I can only read the data that is provided to me. I don't want to make fun of you. I'm sorry if you got that impression. 

The malfunction has been fixed, but the stations in your area are still working at full capacity. Unfortunately, I can't change that. 

Greetings,
Flo
