  • 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?!

  • SixCylinderDean Dean (@SixCylinderDean) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @giffgaff What's a going on with the voice network today? Anywhere I am it is taking AGES to connect outbound calls

  • Euroboy5580 Running monkey (@Euroboy5580) reported

    @uk_domain_names Use GiffGaff or Tesco instead - they both use O2’s network.

  • romk1n R0MK1N (@romk1n) reported

    @giffgaff have you guys launched 5G support or not yet?

  • musichqhull Darren Bunting (@musichqhull) reported

    So I left my @giffgaff phone at home so struggling on using my @tescomobile 'work' phone for internet at the @ORileys2 its such a slow service compared to the Giffgaff one -.-

  • konrkonrkonr konr 🌱 (@konrkonrkonr) reported

    @unblushinn @giffgaff I'm on Giffgaff and live in the same house as you so it seems it'll be a phone issue!

  • 1AUH Jeremy BC (@1AUH) reported

    @MartinSLewis £36.52 a month Plusnet, two years, standard broadband, often lose connection. Also two mobile phones with giffgaff, but signal very poor here, so we need a landline.

  • sparrowhawk28 Ruth Fitch (@sparrowhawk28) reported

    @uk_domain_names @demented_tj Isn't GiffGaff on the O2 network? They do SIM only and have good online (community) support.

  • Markgsparrow Mark Sparrow (@Markgsparrow) reported

    @hsw @DavidDavisMP I'm thinking of changing. I use Giffgaff but the 4G speed is throttled. I'd heard Smarty is supposed to be good but need to test reception for Three network.

  • KingHarold1 King Harold (@KingHarold1) reported

    @Mich1971C Mich your Speedtest is GiffGaff 3G not broadband or fibre broadband. Is this what your smart TV is connecting to? It's not a good speed. You may suffer lag & freeze. Do you not have land based broadband in the house. Check the TV menus network settings what you're connected to.

  • i_jayas Izzy Jayasinghe (@i_jayas) reported

    @GilesPalaeoLab You can buy giffgaff ones repeatedly. I’ve done this when I accidentally dropped the first SIM down somewhere unreachable that I cannot describe on Twitter.
