O2 Repair / Customer service failure - What do I do next

My P30 Pro is less than a year old, it was sent for repair a week ago and returned yesterday, all paperwork stated that a repair was done plus a software update (I always update to latest), the check box of repair tests said all PASSED - yet I have the same issue as it was sent away for.

After multiple attempts at contacting the repair department, I finally spoke to someone who confirmed that the repair had been done, even explained the issue they found & subsequently repaired. When I explained the issue was still EXACTLY the same, the adviser said I would have to send the phone back in for repair - so another week without my phone - BUT, they were not able to "book" the repair & I had to contact customer services to arrange repair - sounds simple, or so I thought.

After multiple attempts, phone hang ups & messages to say to look online for the resolution of my problem, I finally spoke to someone, they attempted to "book" the repair but were unable to do so as the "repair department" had not closed the return down correctly, this was then supposedly resolved but the customer service adviser could not rebook straight away as the system would need time to update.

I was then promised by the adviser that at 8am this morning, they would arrange the repair booking, send me the label via email & text to confirm that this was done - I have NOT received anything, they have NOT followed through on their promise.

I have tried to get in touch by phone and again hit a brick wall, either customer services have taken the day off or nobody is answering.

 

O2 repairs & Customer services have failed to help, so what can I do next? 

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

@Jamieww 

All we can suggest is that you keep trying customer service Guide: Coronavirus Community Help and Support 

Advice from an O2 Guru regarding a way to get through:
If you call 202, when it comes to the reason you are calling stay silent for 15 seconds and you will be taken to the keypad options.
Press 2 for Everything Else
Press 5 for More Options
Press 7 for Anything Else which will put you though to someone.

Thanks @MI5 ,

I will try your method, its just so annoying that after sending a pnone away for a week to get repaired, the same issue is there on return & then noone seems willing to take ownership of arranging another booking for repair.

Why do they persist on telling everyone to use the online services but the online services are not able to actually get you through to doing anthing?

Even when you get through on the phone the poor adviser is unable to help but "promises" to resolve & get back in touch - but never actually does.

So much for being a Communications company - they haven't a clue about communicating.

 

I came back to O2 last year andmy contract will be up very soon, I wish I had stayed clear of them they are useless.

 

Thanks for your help @MI5 , its appreciated
