    @Limbo87 Hi there Caroline. Yikes, that's not good. We are an online based network, meaning we don't have a number for members to call. Could you please DM us so we can help you further? - giffgaff Dana

  • intoxic8 Mark Robertson (@intoxic8) reported

    @benno44775 @giffgaff I checked that service checker and it said service will be disrupted untill 23rd of February, does that mean I'll not be able to make calls for over another week.

  • SARawlinson Steve Rawlinson (@SARawlinson) reported

    @giffgaff I'm on a wired connection on a PC. This is not a network issue.

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

  • jamesivens James Ivens (@jamesivens) reported

    @AskKlarna Hello your service on Giffgaff has been stuck on the spinning wheel of death for half an hour despite several retries. My phone is not working so I can't call or get the SMS code to log into your site for chat. No one is responding to my DMs. Please can you reply.

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

    @reetpetitezero Hi there. We're sad to hear you had an issue with your services yesterday. Rest assured, an agent will respond to your case as soon as possible. - giffgaff Dana

    @oyinkan_ @giffgaff @giffgaff : I cannot login to any account (tried with the app and two browsers, incognito mode, etc.). Error on the browser: "Oops. Sorry, something went wrong on our side. Try again in a few minutes" (for more than 10-15 minutes)

  • SARawlinson Steve Rawlinson (@SARawlinson) reported

    @giffgaff I'm a web application developer. This is not a client side problem.

  • oyinkan_ Honey🍯 (@oyinkan_) reported

    @giffgaff is your service down ?? Why can’t I do anything online?

  • AdrianKeithBrya Sir Adrian Keith Bryan (@AdrianKeithBrya) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks but that will be 4 days without signal - pretty poor to say the least!

  • reetpetitezero ⚡Reet Petite⚡ (@reetpetitezero) reported

    @giffgaff Was there a problem with your service yesterday? Unable to send or receive whatsapps during the afternoon and several missed voicemails and text messages have only just come through today after a restart. This happens a lot. I have logged a complaint.

  • AlexJFMaizy Alex May (@AlexJFMaizy) reported

    @jasebyjason If it's the O2 network you are after, giffgaff is pretty good and runs on O2, as they are month-to-month so no contract nonsense

  • benno44775 Benno (@benno44775) reported
