  • 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.

  • chrismayes .💙#FBPPR #FBPE You have no authority here johnson (@chrismayes) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Hey @giffgaff #DontFundGBNews or i terminate my contract Just sayin.

  • 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.

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

  • 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)

  • Siggygym Sadie Alsina (@Siggygym) reported from Caister-on-Sea, England

    @giffgaff what’s happening with network this weekend in the caister on sea area? no bandwidth although full bars and 4G. Networks status says ok but can’t get higher speeds than 0.25 mbps.

  • jammach Gavin BrrrIan Barrie 🏳️‍🌈🐕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👬🎮 (@jammach) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @LeftLost_Pltcs Might want to check coverage maps on a couple of providers to prevent disappointment. GiffGaff run on the O2 network, as does Tesco mobile.

  • MicReidy Mick Reidy 🇬🇧🇮🇪🇪🇺#FBPE 3.5% (@MicReidy) reported from Herefordshire, England

    @iGiffgaff my son uses Giffgaff but has lost internet access. Calls and text OK. How does he access support.

  • Shaunjenks Shaun Jenks  🇬🇧📱⌚️💻📸✈️ (@Shaunjenks) reported from Ludlow, England

    @onlytruejosh @VodafoneUK I find Vodafone/ Voxi really good speed and coverage wise. I was with GiffGaff and they were awful. And EE wasn’t much better

  • ReligionCanWait Four13 (@ReligionCanWait) reported

    @giffgaff Fantastic. Issue is I am not able to get phone with sim online. I click on continue and it keeps loading. Any idea if I can go to the store and get it done? I am in Staines, Surrey.

  • Withampiscator DTeasdale-Brown (@Withampiscator) reported

    @Matthew_Wright @VodafoneUK Switch to @giffgaff for the people by the people. No interest to declare just a satisfied customer.

  • LouiseVoss1 Louise Voss (@LouiseVoss1) reported

    @hkist @vodafone I had to resort to writing a short play, sending it to the Vodafone CEO, and then getting an article about it printed in the Daily Express to get them to sort my issue! I wish you luck. My life is infinitely better now in with @giffgaff .

  • westie0808 Matt Western* (@westie0808) reported from Shavington cum Gresty, England

    @zaldizki @giffgaff I can send texts no problem at all just calls are still a bit iffy!!

  • Mr_MartinCalder Mr Martin Calder (@Mr_MartinCalder) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @EE Giffgaff has unlimited everything for £35 and even that is very expensive and crazy for the price in the current day’s we are living networks need to help their customers

  • alnic69 Alex (@alnic69) reported

    @giffgaff with 02 you can call 202 but I have no idea what to call to get hold of giffgaff customer services. Not been on the network for long and already thinking about leaving
