    @gazza_d @KarlOnSea @girodilento I did hear that you are further down the priority list for bandwidth congestion with giffgaff than O2. (Also in a macho - mine is bigger than yours kind of way, I have more data than you are allowed buy, 40GB. Travelling a lot these days)

  • MXOFO Lee (@MXOFO) reported from Newburn, England

    My @ThreeUK contract ends at the end of this month. Got an email the day before they announced they’re dropping their free roaming trying to convince me to renew. No thanks. I’m off to @giffgaff. I don’t give my custom to companies that fail to keep their word.

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

  • GosforthHotel The Gosforth Hotel (@GosforthHotel) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    . @giffgaff 4g data in NE3 area has been appalling for the last 48hrs but your coverage page indicates no issues? Voice and text is fine though. Any ideas?

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown 🐝💛🖤💛🖤💛🐝 (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @giffgaff Is there an problem with the network with sending and receiving texts messages. Both my wife and I are getting undelivered, each time when we sending texts over the last week. Little annoying to say the least.

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff No phone signal where you live? That sounds nice Actually

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff If it works elsewhere and other networks work then yes switch to one that works. But maybe don't pick another provider that uses O2 network.

    @Elisha_jadexo Within the settings for the Samsung text, please ensure that your mobile number is correctly shown, as sometimes this can be showing the original SIM number and not any transferred number and can cause these issues. - giffgaff Jeanette

    1) @giffgaff Hi, I have quite the pickled related to your 2 factor process, which has created a problem that related to 0 chances to skip without verification. Despite previously verifying and linking the account to my iPad’s app, to avoid this kind of problem. As my mother -

  • TTpage21 Tawfiq (@TTpage21) reported

    @giffgaff @Markngaz1 The internet connection on my phone is non-existent/horrendously slow in my area, I live in Bolton, BL1. It has been like this for days now. I want this sorted out ASAP and I want monetary compensation for this, because this definitely not what I paid for.

  • lostlotsfound soul exhausted. (@lostlotsfound) reported

    @giffgaff your web service is down?

  • lostlotsfound soul exhausted. (@lostlotsfound) reported

    @giffgaff Would seem unlikely if my access is via WiFi and ALL other pages work. Why would a network issue only affect one webpage. The fact I’m communicating via Twitter says my devise is accessing the internet fine?
