    @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.

  • kiers__ Unotheactivist (@kiers__) reported from Islington, England

    @RafaFerdinand1 @MrSir____ @Sahveeyo @_euanito Sir you connected to GiffGaff so doh try that shit

  • 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.

  • Mr_MartinCalder Mr Martin Calder (@Mr_MartinCalder) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @EE Giffgaff has unlimited everything for £35 and even that is very expensive and crazy for the price in the current day’s we are living networks need to help their customers

  • 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.

  • djrowsam DJ Rowland Samuel (@djrowsam) reported from Paddington, England

    @MissyMissyJ I had a similar problem....but it was with Giffgaff (who use the O2 network as well)

  • 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!

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

  • TronalddumpUS Tronald Dump. (@TronalddumpUS) reported from London, England

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

  • 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)

  • conniebolt27 Connie (@conniebolt27) reported

    @giffgaff **** network. 4G hardly works anywhere. What am I paying for?

  • JasonPtrDavies Jason Davies #BlackLivesMatter (@JasonPtrDavies) reported

    @TheMedievalDrK @menysnoweballes If you can get someone to order a giffgaff sim they have good data rates and you could use your phone or tablet (?) to get 4g. Check O2 coverage as that’s the network they use. It’s monthly and can be paid by PayPal iirc (def by credit card).

  • sammyparsnips samantha parsons (@sammyparsnips) reported

    Can’t get into my giffgaff account to cancel a payment that I no longer use unless they can send a message to the phone I no longer have 🙈 #giffgaff

  • TsarKiki Kiki Tsar (@TsarKiki) reported

    @giffgaff is there anybody to talk to because your system is not efficient. Been asking and getting no help. After this I wont be recommending anyone to use giffgaff. My sim card broke so obviously cant get puk code from old dead sim card & no one can help

  • LUKEE95_ Luke (@LUKEE95_) reported

  • mattPez Matt Pez 🐻 BLM (@mattPez) reported

    @dorey1414 This is why I ended up with giffgaff, I pay in advance each month, there's no bill to work up. No help at desk to call either but online help has usually solved any issues I've had.
