  • KarimKerbouche Karim Kerbouche (@KarimKerbouche) reported

    @giffgaff Hi, I’ve just started using giffgaff and the internet has been awful, it never finds 4G. This is the case all across London so it’s nothing to do with network coverage

  • ree_tweets_ Ree (@ree_tweets_) reported

    @giffgaff hello, I had no mobile data all day and now I do, it's not even 3G, it's that slow! Bad timing too as my broadband is out. Can you help me figure out what's happening

  • freshandsound Londoner (@freshandsound) reported

    @giffgaff Hello i joined recently but i only have 3G and not sure i understand where is the problem

  • toniclarke67 tlc (@toniclarke67) reported

    Why am I suspended from my account and unable to report and cancel a stolen phone?! @giffgaff

  • ApolloBelladona ☆ Apollo ★ (@ApolloBelladona) reported

    @giffgaff It's not in one area. It's while I'm traveling around London. I've always had 2 phones on your network in the 7 years I've been with you and both have problems, but it's got worse now.

  • ApolloBelladona ☆ Apollo ★ (@ApolloBelladona) reported

    @giffgaff Tbh GG are not really in a position to solve it, @O2 are, since you ride off them. More than 2 yrs ago I reported That there was absolutely no GG data to be got in Peckham or Nunhead in S. London, even with a full phone signal. Haven't been able to open a Web page for years.

  • scouselesley Lesley McGlynn (@scouselesley) reported

    @giffgaff is giffgaff down in NW3??

  • ivinsp Paul Ivins 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 ♎ 💙🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ 🇪🇺 (@ivinsp) reported

    @richie_rich77 You might want to send a text with the number of the call to 7726 (SPAM) free so your network (giffgaff I believe?) can look into it

  • AfcThomo David Thompson (@AfcThomo) reported
