  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 @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.

  • TyneTom Tom Bailey (@TyneTom) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @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)

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

    @selinnotcelinee This would normally mean that your phone isn't reading the SIM so it would either be an issue with the SIM card, or phone. However, we can also check the account to ensure everything is as it should be. Have you been in touch with our agents through your account? - giffgaff Emer.

    @giffgaff I was at Gatwick airport trying to check up on a much delayed train. It has finally arrived and on the move now. Wife had same problem though

  • V1echa Viecha (@V1echa) reported

    ******* #giffgaff still cant fix network errors around town @giffgaff lazy people ... why the hell they work there if cant do the work ....

  • 4StarLeaded SeahorseFarrier (@4StarLeaded) reported

    @Darmapow The only thing I can think of is to use a provider that doesn’t share its network (giffgaff as an example piggyback O2), but volume on the mast will muller the upload speed.

  • WolfieSmiffed Del-4Ri (@WolfieSmiffed) reported

    @giffgaff Yes, no worries. I'm having to do this from my phone in the park, to get service so please bare with me

  • DougzyA Dougzy, a bit like Banksy but with a D yet zy. 😉 (@DougzyA) reported

    Giffgaff network a dehumanising customer services. If you've a major issue you will never be able to talk to a human being to walk you through it. Cold & heartless robotic customer services can't even leave a number to ring you back, the dehumanising aspect, if not techy savvy.

  • Shahrukh00003 Shahrukh Siddiqui (@Shahrukh00003) reported

    @giffgaff you guys generate invoice of customer?

  • cookie1378 Michael cooke (@cookie1378) reported

    @giffgaff I've been a loyal customer for many years now but I'm gonna be switching to a different network provider at the weekend the reason is once you use 80gb of data you slow down the speed from 8am to midnight which doesn't help me I have the always on data goody bag too

  • jacobwyn29 𝗝𝗮𝗰𝗼𝗯 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🙏 🇺🇦 (@jacobwyn29) reported

    @giffgaff I moved to your network yesterday and bought an £8 goody bag, but have had NO signal since. How can I get a refund so that I can go back to my previous network? Thanks.

  • Badmungo Carl (@Badmungo) reported

    @dougshaw1 @giffgaff Giff Gaff is owned by O2 so probably piggybacks on their network. Do you know of any O2 people with similar issues locally? Would be able to narrow it down to just GG or the local network?
