  • TronalddumpUS Tronald Dump. (@TronalddumpUS) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff your network in #blackheath is atrocious. I get better signal sitting on a beach in Botswana, what's up with that?

  • DrJennyVaughan jenny vaughan (@DrJennyVaughan) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @giffgaff sort out your ageist “customer care” approach & call & help my 77 year old mum. You don’t even help me to help her you just send us a barrage of data red tape we can’t deal with. This is how elderly people are marginalised by #giffgaff they just won’t make that call.

  • CoronaSinger 🍎Corona🍎******🍎(****/****) (@CoronaSinger) reported from Stratford, England

    @giffgaff I have recieved my replacement sim as my old sim was broke and I have activated the new sim but I still can't make or recieve calls and texts could you tell me how long this is going to take please as I am disabled and need my phone in case of an emergency thank you

  • till_the_wheels 𝕵𝖚𝖌𝖘 (@till_the_wheels) reported from London, England

    @O2 @Joegreaney Hi I'd just like to add that this is a problem for everyone on 02 and giffgaff in that area and it's because a mast in hither green has been down for 2 years and these crooks hate you enough to ignore it.

  • BartBoski Bartek 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇵🇱 (@BartBoski) reported from Camberwell, England

  • ric_mc ric (@ric_mc) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff Morning! I just pop up a new 5G plan on my iPhone 12 but seems it’s not working for me even after I have set to work on 5G on my phone settings

  • jordanrevell Jordan Revell (@jordanrevell) reported from Camden Town, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I've had internet dropouts for the past 3-4 days, up to 4 times per day, plus dropouts often in the last year. It nearly jeopardized my life changing doctors appointment held over zoom today, often times my giffgaff 4g mobile data is faster, I need a solution.

  • DrAaronBraddy Dr Aaron Braddy-Green (@DrAaronBraddy) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @PhilSheaS @lungsatwork I got a crappy phone with a £5 a month GiffGaff sim for a job I recently did with non-resident on call...100% worth it - switched off when not at work, never had to give randoms at other hosps my personal No & no dodgy calls OOH or when not at work! Definitely do this @PhilSheaS

  • stephaniedale_ Steph (@stephaniedale_) reported

    @O2 / @giffgaff please can you check your signal / networks / masts around Staffordshire and Cheshire? The service is shocking. Has been for months. 3 of us are all having issues - it's almost unusable. Calls drop all the time, no signal or poor signal.

  • granth1974 Neil G (@granth1974) reported

    @giffgaff There is literally no information that is helpful there other than telling me there's a problem, which I already know. An ETA to fix would be useful.

  • Fumbledore Richard (@Fumbledore) reported

    @ThatSillyGinge @ThreeUK Giffgaff. Runs on O2 network.

  • LSvolopoulos Since .... 🇬🇷 🇬🇧 (@LSvolopoulos) reported

    @robertjoseph Some companies still have 2022 free roaming. Like O2 for example, weird cause giffgaff is using there network. There not very competitive and IMO they will lose clients

  • bob_love Bob Love (@bob_love) reported

    @EE @StourbridgeMot1 "some"?? All my devices are on EE, I've had no Internet since around lunchtime (St Andrews, Scotland). Now back at home in Dundee, still same issue (using now via home broadband, but need to go out again). Not good enough. Had to buy a giffgaff sim for my car's wifi router.

  • GuyEmerson Guy Emerson (@GuyEmerson) reported

    @giffgaff When you are a student living abroad for a short but significant time, that is not sufficient and she cannot afford the charges. You have lost a young customer probably for life.

  • M0KPH Phil - M0KPH (@M0KPH) reported

    @MX5AKA Good point. Whenever I searched GiffGaff 5G it presented a map showing good coverage without any mention that this was general coverage. Entering locations does allow you select, which wasn’t initially obvious. Better labelling would help, especially when accessed from tablets.

  • jondylan31 jon (@jondylan31) reported

    @saramttnez @giffgaff Smarty still free in eu I get 25 gb ..a part of my bundle .they 3three network

  • vanlies Mark van Lieshout (@vanlies) reported

    @giffgaff Why is the roaming allowance going down.

  • O2 O2 (@O2) reported

    @granth1974 Hi Neil 👋 If you're a giffgaff customer you'll need to speak to them.
