  • 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.

  • 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)

  • JulieVintageTea Julie Clay (@JulieVintageTea) reported from Shiremoor, England

    Still no joy with my phone, my days are numbered now with @giffgaff after many years loyal support #no4g

  • 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.

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @_TheGMan @giffgaff Unfortunately not,giffgaff voicemail runs at network level and individual numbers can't be blocked from it. he only solution if it's convenient would be to dial 1626 to switch off your voicemail.

  • QasimU94 QasimU94 (@QasimU94) reported

    @giffgaff stupid question; but in ordering the 5g sim will my number change or remain the same as current?

  • callmeprimey Brian (@callmeprimey) reported

    I'll probably switch back to Giffgaff. Never had this issue with them

    @sarahisnothere We're really sorry to hear about this, Sarah. Can you please send us a DM with your full post code so we can help? - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • elliepersence ellie 🤍🦋 (@elliepersence) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @giffgaff please reply to your direct messages, it’s bad enough you don’t have online agents and a phone number that I can’t sort this out with

  • HiFiAlan Alan Swindells🇪🇺🔶#RejoinEU. Still European at❤️ (@HiFiAlan) reported

    @ChantelleSeddon @tomclearwood @O2 If you get a decent signal on O2, switch to Giffgaff, as I did a couple of years ago. They use the O2 network, but do not tie you into a long contract. You will have to buy your handset outright but monthly costs are tiny in comparison. btw I have no connection with them.

    @giffgaff my phone hasn’t been able to get any service in my flat for almost three months now - who’s be best to contact about this? Thanks.
