    @giffgaff morning. My giffgaff has stopped my normal recurring goody bag and when I try to top back up it just says oops there was a problem and won’t let me top up? I have the funds so know it’s not my end. Please advise, thanks

  • ED_of_all ED (@ED_of_all) reported

  • gmallamaci giacomo mallamaci (@gmallamaci) reported

    @giffgaff is there any known issue within the network? I am without signal since yesterday

  • Mykiel_B MikeKAB (@Mykiel_B) reported

    @CharlieHaddon3 @giffgaff Hi Charlie, just adding credit doesn’t give you a goodybag. U hv to exchange the credit for a goodybag by dialing 43430 opt 2 from ur phone or online. In fact never add credit, just get a goodybag direct everytime otherwise soon as u add credit ur phone will start eating ur cred

  • eszternikolettm Eszter NM (@eszternikolettm) reported

  • marcsrhudson Marc Hudson (@marcsrhudson) reported

    Hello @giffgaff. Bought a ten pound goody bag. Sent two texts. Credit down to £8.45?? What's the point of a pay as you go goody bag if there are hidden charges? Can I take my number with me if/when I go elsewhere?

  • robjone67901918 rob jones (@robjone67901918) reported

    @giffgaff @mobile_o2 @currysplc stop cold calling me everyday trying to get me to upgrade. call centre staff are rude, hang up & don’t listen when I refuse to give all my details. My current contract isn’t up for renewal & when it is it certainly won’t be with you shower of ****!

  • K9Protection K9 Protection Ltd - Your ACS supplier. (@K9Protection) reported

    @JayneCowan @matthewevansnpt Personal SIM is GiffGaff, work one is EE. I have less signal issues in almost every location on the supposedly crappy cheap network than I do on the premium network. Lost track of the number of times I have to call back on the other line.

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

    @Peter_Bennet Hi Peter. We have monthly goodybag options, however, we are a PAYG network so our members are never tied down to us. If you decide to purchase a goodybag, but don't wish to add it on every month then you have the option to add it as a one off. - giffgaff Tasbiya
