    @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)

    hey @giffgaff I'm in east London (Tower Hamlets/Hackney) and was expecting a very important phone call but it looks like there is some outage? I asked two people to phone me and it says "it has not been possible to connect". I can't phone anybody either.

  • TweetSamJordan Sam Jordan (@TweetSamJordan) reported

    I raised the issue on a @giffgaff forum and lots of great people chipped in how I could help myself - so I did all these actions, multiple times to no joy. After 3 hours and getting nowhere, I raised an issue to a @giffgaff agent, highlighting all the things I’d done…

    @giffgaff I can't be the only person on god's green earth that has this problem, well it's not a problem, I just have to select 24 hours later to send the message by SMS where it's trying to send it by internet

  • DavesInfosec Dave (@DavesInfosec) reported

    @giffgaff I've tried mutiple devices, laptop, tablet, phone, different browsers on each, different wireless connections and get the same message on each one. Still not working.

  • TweetSamJordan Sam Jordan (@TweetSamJordan) reported

    Two weeks ago, my contract ended with @VodafoneUK and I decided to try an alternative network. I thought I’d try @giffgaff SIM only because I wanted to see if their network performance (O2’s) was better than Vodafone’s. (I’d also reduce my bill from £70 to £20 a month).

    @BBCBreakfast I can't help but feel that the reason turnips have kept coming up may be caused by a giffgaff TV advert.

  • ClareQ12 Clare-REAL socialists wear masks 😷 (@ClareQ12) reported

    @NormaSNcube @ThreeUK My service dropped regularly with Three. I'm with Giffgaff now, better package and service

  • TweetSamJordan Sam Jordan (@TweetSamJordan) reported

    @giffgaff use @VMO2News’s mobile network so the infrastructure component is managed by them, however GG are the service provider. It quickly became clear that something wasn’t right - I couldn’t receive calls, text messages or use iPhone functionality like messenger…
