  • 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.

  • 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 🤬😤

  • MVautrin Angela M Sturniolo (@MVautrin) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @Claytoncast @ThreeUKSupport @giffgaff I was in Bologna Italy for most of the month of May and didn't have any problems. Maybe it depends where you are. Anyway good luck.

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

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

  • 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 :)

  • 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.

  • macqueendan Daniel MacQueen (@macqueendan) reported from Tottenham, England

    @giffgaff I keep running out of credit on my monthly pay as you go plan. Auto top up was enabled leading to x2 charges now my account has run out for the third time. Wifi is turned on, HELP please

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • Ryanclairmont 🅡🅨🅐🅝 (@Ryanclairmont) reported from Ilford, England

    @giffgaff hi team is it possible to have some help in regards to my account?

  • 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.

  • SophieGudge_ Sophie 💕 (@SophieGudge_) reported from Stratford, England

    @l0ulaa I had this issue in Lincoln with Three... had to change to giffgaff as it was so bad!

  • 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?

  • 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)

  • SuzieStewart Suzanna Stewart (@SuzieStewart) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @giffgaff hi, tried to renew password online but the link you send keeps saying it’s already been used when it hasn’t. Need to renew bundle asap but can’t help please

  • Agathi0usssss Agathe (@Agathi0usssss) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff I switched from Vodafone yesterday. Now can’t receive calls or texts messages on iPhone. Have turned off, updated software etc etc. Help!

  • _shannonbpowers Shannon Rivers (@_shannonbpowers) reported

    @giffgaff you might want to speak with your mobile line/owners @O2. You’re customers deserve better and @O2 aren’t taking it seriously. So many of us need to be able to call for help. Some of us are disabled and need to get onto the drs. Really unacceptable.

  • huntharry Harry William (@huntharry) reported

    @giffgaff I ordered a new phone yesterday and the incorrect handset has been delivered. Please help me to resolve this ASAP.

  • srafferty73 Stephen Rafferty (@srafferty73) reported

    @giffgaff Do you have any details on when firmware updates are due to arrive on specific devices via your network?

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

    @VikingAnglian That's odd. Please can you clear your cache, cookies and web history then try this again. Please also try using a different browser or device, as this should help - giffgaff Jade

  • UnderneathMyBed Cristina Gore (@UnderneathMyBed) reported

    Hey @giffgaff. Just wanted to give props where they’re due in replacing my new phone with a fully working one in less than 48 hours from putting the dead one in a bag to send back. Never been able to fault you guys, not in the 12 ish years I’ve been with you. Cheers. 🍺👏🏻

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

    @JavierLondonUK No problem at all, we are so happy your issue has been resolved. - giffgaff Megan

  • silvergoatish The mechanical mountain goat 🐐 (@silvergoatish) reported

    @virginmedia The bill date is 2 November. Payment date is 22 November. I also had to buy extra Giffgaff data £10 for essential communications during the loss of 7 days Virgin service. When I've reported regular loss of service in the past, I've never received amended bills from virgin.
