    @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.

  • 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)

  • unicornfacuk Helen @ The Unicorn Factory | Surface Design (@unicornfacuk) reported

    @giffgaff As a new customer I really don't appreciate being blamed for not looking for info I didn't know I needed When I booked porting there was no indication of issue. The email on the morning had no mention of possible delays. There was no reason for me to look for service updates!

  • unicornfacuk Helen @ The Unicorn Factory | Surface Design (@unicornfacuk) reported

    @giffgaff Haven't even figured out the community stuff yet... Good service for a new customer onboarding shouldn't be conditional on them psychically knowing to look for info - communicate service updates affecting onboarding & use it as an opp to intro where to find more info in future

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

    @unicornfacuk We completely understand your frustration, as we know how important it is to have access to your services. However, as soon as the issue was identified, it was updated on our community forum. We apologise for the inconvenience this has caused you Helen - giffgaff Megan

  • DanBettridge Dan Bettridge (@DanBettridge) reported

    @giffgaff Hi, there are no options that work for my issue and I have 2 days left until I lose my number. Can someone help please.

  • Shazzarinski La Shaz⭐️ (@Shazzarinski) reported

    @giffgaff I have been frozen out of my bank account beachside I can’t receive an sms on my phone…my goody bag hasn’t been activated in 7 days, I’ve swapped@my sim & done all the reboots and can’t even make a call or use data to help sort this out! This is a nightmare

  • pollygunning Pollyanna Gunning (@pollygunning) reported

    @giffgaff I've now been 9 days with no phone or data access! This is unacceptable. All you tell me is you're working on it and don't have a timeframe for resolution. Please respond urgently regarding how to transfer to a different network.

  • Happy_kiddo Nidhi (@Happy_kiddo) reported

    @giffgaff Thank you for your reply. I’m still waiting for my sim to arrive in the mail, been quite a while. Plus i have my PAC from o2 ready. Really hoping your operations are back to normal next week as I’m a new customer.. now a nervous one. 👀

  • tommiekiddy Tommie Kiddy (@tommiekiddy) reported
