  • PaulGrayburn PG tweets (@PaulGrayburn) reported from Romford, England

    @DanJay946 @EE @ThreeUK @giffgaff You know they use the O2 network. You’d get a better performance with them instead of giffgaff.

  • jordanrevell Jordan Revell (@jordanrevell) reported from Camden Town, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I've had internet dropouts for the past 3-4 days, up to 4 times per day, plus dropouts often in the last year. It nearly jeopardized my life changing doctors appointment held over zoom today, often times my giffgaff 4g mobile data is faster, I need a solution.

  • staylowkae baby wasteman. (@staylowkae) reported from London, England

    giffgaff finally back to more data less money but ofc its slow now 😐

  • TronalddumpUS Tronald Dump. (@TronalddumpUS) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff your network in #blackheath is atrocious. I get better signal sitting on a beach in Botswana, what's up with that?

  • arigork Ari Gork (@arigork) reported from Camden Town, England

    Family visiting needed a local sim. Got @giffgaff prepaid & activation was simple & fast. Catch is you need to get a voucher or credit/debit card to load selected bundle as store could not help and needed browser access to activate sim and load bundle. Otherwise 5 stars :)

  • suhailpatel Suhail Patel (@suhailpatel) reported from London, England

    @Geek_Manager @jaseemabid @watbe @filipecvarela @ThreeUK @EE @giffgaff Three around Central London has been very spotty for me too (although it’s worse on iPhones than Androids, maybe it’s the iOS baseband on Three’s bands). Vodafone have been my go-to pretty much everywhere. Unfortunately the support is abysmal, guess you can’t have it all.

  • GracialNation gracialnation (@GracialNation) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff my SIM in my dongle says I’m connected but my laptop is saying the network can’t be joined. It just stopped working a few days ago and now just won’t join!

  • Maliwil RAVEAUD Emmanuel (@Maliwil) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Oh thanks so much, only one solution refund my money back on 5 days, so I don't have a phone for a new week. Thanks @dpd_support for your perfect work ... So know you are going to give me a new phone 🤬😤

  • LauraSummersNow Laura Summers (@LauraSummersNow) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Hi Giffgaff! Something has gone wrong in North Greenwich with your network. Calls keep cutting out here. We’re all going to change network (unless this is just about to fix!) - it’s my husband and I (on Giffgaff) plus a neighbour on Sky (also 02)

  • EdoreFaine Cr£am (@EdoreFaine) reported from London, England

    @O2 I’m with GiffGaff. Usually no issues with Mesia messages in any direction, but when it happens, I’m curious about this type of message. It says here’s your message, but there’s no link or attachment.

    @girlonabrompton My last phone was a Wileyfox which lasted me 3.5 yrs for £150. GiffGaff is £8 a month and I could cut that down.

  • SephBentos Theoretically Seph Bentõs 🎸🎶 (@SephBentos) reported

    @giffgaff I’m slightly concerned as I signed in to all of my various accounts including banking etc and set up my iPhone keychain before it powered down. I’m worried that if I send it off someone could access all of my accounts if they replaced the battery as it’s tied to my iCloud account

  • GeoffTygger tygger (@GeoffTygger) reported

    @BradMcA In what way better? I've been with ID for 6 years and never had a problem, so what do Giffgaff do better/cheaper?

  • tonybonneyba1 𝒯𝑜𝓃𝓎 𝒯𝒽𝑒 𝒲𝒾𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓇 𝒲𝒾𝓏𝒶𝓇𝒹 🏳️‍🌈 (@tonybonneyba1) reported

    How did I know it was a scam? Firstly, I use Giffgaff, not EE, so there should be no problem. Secondly, the link looks suspicious. Thirdly, the phone number is a mobile number, if it was EE, it would come up as such. Normally, other clues can be found in grammar & spelling.
