  • 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.

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

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • gatefourteen 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻 (@gatefourteen) reported

    @giffgaff Yep, I've responded to you. Hopefully someone will reply with a fix or a refund then.

  • gatefourteen 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻 (@gatefourteen) reported

    @giffgaff Luckily I've now installed @SMARTYMobileUK Sims in the device.(s). £15 cheaper and for unlimited data and ...shock horror...they actually work. Stick your SIM card and your appalling customer service in the sea @giffgaff .

  • raysucc demon shane (@raysucc) reported

    anyone seeing my phone network for the first time: GIFFGAFF??? WHAT IN TARNATION

  • thesempress JuStSaRaH (@thesempress) reported

    @giffgaff Not really ready to post my postcode on here but the signal is actually horrendous here

  • gatefourteen 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻 (@gatefourteen) reported

    @giffgaff As part of a verification process??? How can something I've never told you be used to verify who I am? If you've scanned the device in the first place, and you've taken it from there, and I'm telling you there is no way for me to get that data, how stupid is your verification?

  • joanna_bartycha Joanna B (@joanna_bartycha) reported

    @giffgaff what's wrong with the network today in Plymouth? Very poor reception and mobile Internet 😕

  • gatefourteen 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻 (@gatefourteen) reported

    @giffgaff got a SIM card from giff gaff. Loaded it with 35 quid for unlimited data. Tries it in two unlocked devices. No data. £35 quid down the drain.

  • Ragdollcatman Raggycat Rattyman - 🐭🐱 (@Ragdollcatman) reported

    @SamMaayan @giffgaff I like the Galaxy Note phones but that's it. Nearly every Samsung product I've had has died from motherboard failure or has had issues with the motherboard. Both G. Note 1 phones we had, an original G. Tab 10", 2 Samsung UE32J5600 TVs and a Samsung branded external HDD.
