    @giffgaff can you help please? Tried to send a text to someone which included an emoji and get a "message failed" notification. Plenty of credit on my phone. When I click on the message I don't seem to be able to edit it, just retry or cancel.

  • RosieWilkinson Rosie Wilkinson (@RosieWilkinson) reported

    Having been with @O2 since my first phone, I’m done. Customer service used to be the reason I stuck with them even though they were far from cheap. Now expensive and terrible service (if you even get to speak to someone). Who are you with that’s better? Giffgaff seem ok?

    @LaurenJ77 @SkyHelpTeam I know,this as does most of Chelmsford. It’s on the BT page.O2, giffgaff etc have it on their service status, yet Sky insist they know nothing.I don’t want to play the ‘I’m a clinically extremely vulnerable keyworker’ card but..! Seriously, sort it out sky!You’re a comms company!

    @Nickhalo01 Example or definition? Example - Boots Advantage Card, O2 Priority, Giffgaff. Definition? Loosely...A brand that's borne with the same DNA and values as its parent company, but one which meets/addresses a different customer need.
