    @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)

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @R_B89boxer Ah okay. If you're a giffgaff customer you'll need to continue to liaise with them directly as your service provider.

  • eactnowuk EActNowUK #fightpovertynotpoorpeople (@eactnowuk) reported

    @Porlocking I just want a damn refund, I can't even CALL them cos my signal drops out so often. All I want iss for them to give me the money they took DESPITE being aware the mast was broken AGAIN. Then I can use my Giffgaff SIM straight away. I rely on a good call service, and this ain't it

  • titch241 Matt 💫 (@titch241) reported

    @giffgaff Doesnt work

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

    @Alex05233308 We are an online only mobile network Alex, meaning we do not have a customer service number to call. Please drop us a DM, so we can advise further - giffgaff Jade

  • R_B89boxer B0¥3R (@R_B89boxer) reported

    Yo @giffgaff @O2 whats with your mobile signal in the CH41 7DN area its proper shite and has been for a long time

  • askthedood KevyD (@askthedood) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks for the fast response. So same as @giffgaff then which I guess means similar issues sadly.

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

    @GiftyAkuamoah1 The goodybag will be charged for once it is applied to your account. To avoid any issues, we would recommend having the available balance in your bank account a few hours before the current goodybag is due to expire - giffgaff Jade

  • torrierob Robin Torrie (@torrierob) reported

    Are @giffgaff any good? My partner has had to return two iPhones one after the other - first one had been banned from some apps (previously a drug dealers phone?) and the second couldn’t be unlocked. Isn’t it best to go with a real mobile network??

  • lizziothephysio Elizabeth O'Connor (@lizziothephysio) reported

    @giffgaff @Damopss Can't call out either but website says no issues.
