Did the software update on the 7th October 2016 after I did that wifi
would no longer work on my Samsung gakaxy A3. Spoke to o2 who said it
was a Samsung issue. Samsung took my phone twice for repair and
problem still existed so o2 took phone in the 7th November and they
still have it now they were waiting for parts then it was with an
engineer now they waiting for parts again now iv been told I need a
replacement phone but it will be a reconditioned one and someone else
has used it, this is unacceptable as I never broke my phone they are
not on it out of order been on phone around 35 times to be told it's a
repair fault then repair saying its a customer service fault I was cut
off about 3 times in one day.
Never before after 15+ years have
I ever had such bad customer service, I am not accepting a tatty phone
when mine was in mint condition, I think o2 should pay off my existing
contract and let me have a new phone as I still owe £80 on this
phone and iv not even had it for over a month yet I'm still having yo
pay the bill... Come on o2 sort this out.
Customer service is
shocking.
Time to go to another network I think.
