    @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 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.

  • 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.

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Sounds good but as an existing VM customer if I bring my mobile back to O2 from Giffgaff will I be able to use existing VM apps for all my accounts or will I have to re create O2 or new Volt ones? Will we get inclusive VM & O2 calls across devices?

  • kitchens_sync Kev Kitchens 🌈 (@kitchens_sync) reported

    So many of Adele’s videos start with her dropping calls that I feel like someone needs to tell her, “Girl, you’ve made it, FFS you can afford to get off GiffGaff and find a real network”

  • CoachDriverHugh Hugh Johnson (@CoachDriverHugh) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport issues fall on deaf ears. Too late now, friends are quitting too. @giffgaff has won my vote.

  • PassionOnlineUK Faith @ Passion (@PassionOnlineUK) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @giffgaff Hi, I'm experiencing problems with data for the third day running. No reception at all today in CF11 8AT

  • ShaolinBadger Shaolin Badger (@ShaolinBadger) reported

    @giffgaff I bought a phone only today but email states I have a recurring goodybag. No details on account. How do I cancel this? Thanks

  • bobbigmac Bob (@bobbigmac) reported

    @chrisrussellco @giffgaff weird tho cos I'm on a weird side road, my 4g is twice the speed of my landline (16x for upstream), but since it drops out so often, I can't use it for anything that needs a stable connection, so I can sit here lagging to **** on a game, while my work pc is uploading terabytes :)

  • niikhb nik (@niikhb) reported

    @giffgaff it's network blackspot. struggles to reach 1mbps download, same as the wifi speed. it's my fault i should have tested them both before I signed the tenancy. oh well, live and learn then move far, far away!

  • HCAKASMELL Helen (@HCAKASMELL) reported

    @giffgaff Absolutely baffled..... Does anyone know why when I text people it's showing a completely different number to mine but when people ring me it comes through to my actual number.... Help!!!....

  • Pjane1965 Penny Fisher 💙 (@Pjane1965) reported
