  • mikeyoungUK Cllr Mike Young (@mikeyoungUK) reported from Elwick, England

    @giffgaff I got a payg sim for my spare phone yesterday and spent 30 quid on credit so I can use it as a data tethering device for my laptop at home. Live in a rural area so no fibre broadband option. Sadly, there is zero 4G signal. I thought all networks had this sorted?!

  • ScooterRiderFMX 🏳️‍🌈 #ImMeWhoAreYou 🏳️‍🌈 (@ScooterRiderFMX) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Data still not working. I’ll be glad when I ditch @giffgaff

  • MeInSunderland #ImMe | #SAFC | 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 (@MeInSunderland) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    🚨 Never buy a refurbished phone from @giffgaff they send you ducked phones then blame you for damaging it

  • e_gran Lynda D💙 (@e_gran) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @RachelOrr I think you can just get a phone…it doesn’t have to have a giffgaff SIM (but check on that). However, GG is so cheap and easy and you can change plans or cancel with no contract. We have both been with them for years and years.

    Hey @giffgaff can you get onto O2 about the mobile signal in Sunderland City Centre, it’s almost impossible to even load twitter.

  • nathanlawsn Nathan Lawson (@nathanlawsn) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @adamconder @OllieBrkr @giffgaff I’ve experienced that occasionally on Three also, but I found that restarting my iPhone fixes the problem, so I’m beginning to think it’s actually an iOS issue rather than a problem with the network.

  • gabundy 𝗚𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗧𝗛 🇵🇸 #FreePalestine (@gabundy) reported

    Back and forth between @giffgaff and @hsbc to chase down a regular payment that has been going out of my account to an unknown party's phone for OVER A YEAR without me realising (yep, my bad). Someone's been having free calls off me since late 2019. So annoying. Hopefully sorted.

  • ItWillBeOkMate James Blake (@ItWillBeOkMate) reported

    @giffgaff why have you had an update where if your on the phone you don’t get any notification of a missed called unless they leave a voicemail. Any advice will help? If they call you and you don’t get a voicemail you won’t know you missed a call. #annoying

  • clarinette02 Datarainbow 🌈Privacy Advocate (@clarinette02) reported

    @gcluley @VodafoneUK I had the same issue with Vodafone and EE. I had to cancel my direct debits. They put a notice on my credit history, Long battle to cancel. In have been using GiffGaff Pay as you go for several years and so happier and cheaper.

  • J74309255 J (@J74309255) reported

    @giffgaff Have ordered THIRD time today. Could get quicker from Amazon !! Very poor service that can’t get this earlier. Terrible that can’t phone a phone company. Disappointed. Work in NHS and need phone urgently , or will have to start cancelling home visits.

  • J74309255 J (@J74309255) reported

    @giffgaff Tried this. When tried to activate, your website says can only use the one you have sent. TWO weeks and still waiting. BAD service. You don’t care about people. Worst thing is that you’re a phone company with no phone customer service #giffgaff

  • pumpkincatto 🟢 hannah 🟢 (@pumpkincatto) reported

    @Klarna why was I forced to pay my phone contract through you with giffgaff? Ive had nothing but issues for the past 2 months and your customer service is trash. I had no choice either, I was forced to use klarna and it wouldn't let me pay the way I did for my old phone.

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

    @J74309255 Ah okay, so we would need to order a replacement SIM from our end. Can you please send us a DM, so we can help further? - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • Ser_Pyrro P@ul is getting bored... (@Ser_Pyrro) reported

    @giffgaff This is the escalation team!!! This is result of 7 days of waiting after it getting it escalated! PLEASE LOOK AT THE SITUATION FOR MORE THAN 10 secs before responding, just a perfect example of the state of your customer service...

  • HannahJ100690 Hannah Johnson (@HannahJ100690) reported

    @giffgaff No, everything doesn’t seem to work. Please can I send you my number and can you look at it please? My husband is having the same problem.

  • clarinette02 Datarainbow 🌈Privacy Advocate (@clarinette02) reported

    @gcluley @VodafoneUK Also, according to Vodafone, I was constantly going over my allowance they could not even prove me how. Their App had a different figures than their bills. Never paid more than 10£/month with GiffGaff, if not less.
