  • 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?!

  • 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.

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

    @giffgaff So are you going to refund me? And it’s not your engineer is it? You don’t own the infrastructure you piggy back on another provider. Be honest. I’m paying for no service

  • TommoTommazzi Tommo 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@TommoTommazzi) reported

    1/2 Well @giffgaff you really are letting me pull my hair out (what's left of it) How can you have had my wife's phone for repair for a month, not tell me anything about what's happening and now on her page say it's been cancelled....really, really poor from you guys....

  • TheAngelicVA TheAngelicVirtualPA (@TheAngelicVA) reported

    @giffgaff Would be great if you actually fixed the phone mast so I get a phone signal. A week and you’re charging me for the privilege of not having any service unless I go out for a walk to the next working mast area. Thank you giffgaff for ensuring I can’t call my family at home.

    @locksmith1244 We're sorry to hear this. What issues are you having when trying to use your SIM card? - giffgaff Jeanette

  • Matt_Evs95 Matt Evans (@Matt_Evs95) reported

    @MattEva64025022 A variety of ways. For example, EE primarily use it as a method of customer service, aiming to respond to customer queries as quick as possible. GiffGaff meanwhile create more jovial content, and like to chat about things like what toppings they like on their pancakes.

  • WarlockSkills The trees speak Latin (@WarlockSkills) reported

    @giffgaff Hi @giffgaff it’s been a few hours since you tweeted this and my signal is still not working. It says the 5G mast is down in my area but my phone does not support 5G... what should I do?
