  • 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?

  • uncoolbob Bob MacCallum (@uncoolbob) reported from London, England

  • 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.

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

  • endaguinan Enda Guinan (@endaguinan) reported from Islington, 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.

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

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

    @giffgaff please help. Activated wife’s SIM over 24 hours ago and requested to move number across from old giffgaff sim also. It’s not finished and now neither SIM is working. What could be the hold up? Thanks.

  • boyer_89 l30¥£R (@boyer_89) reported

    @giffgaff Are you still having issues with a mast not working properly in the ch41 area or has the issue been fixed

  • VerbalDigestive Sean (@VerbalDigestive) reported

    @Nation985 @giffgaff Little bit of research into its CEO and backers tells me it's going to be a bad thing.

  • kiamletley Liam Ketley (@kiamletley) reported

    @giffgaff hi. I can't log in to my account as the login page just loads endlessly when I click login. I'm desperately trying to cancel my renewable goody bag as I don't live in the UK any more. Can I do it via DM? I can't call you guys as not in UK.

  • musichqhull Darren Bunting (@musichqhull) reported

    @giffgaff I've already done this, 10 minutes down the road I can get 20+ mb - its certainly this area of the City that has very poor coverage. In the past I could get up to 8mb here but over the last month its got slower & slower.

  • Marvin072535355 Marvin (@Marvin072535355) reported

    @francescaelena_ @giffgaff Depending on how much you use mostly per month. £20/25 deal is better than anything less than £20 if u are using it for data/mins mostly been with them 2 yesrs no problem what so ever 👍

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

    @musichqhull Hi. Are you able to try your SIM card in another unlocked phone, or try another network SIM in your phone, to see if their work? As this will determine whether the SIM or the phone is the issue, Darren - giffgaff Jade
