  • 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.

  • 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?

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

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • sofiloco Sofi Summers (@sofiloco) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff What's the point?so you can tell me what I already know. O2 mast down, beyond our control blah blah blah. Have you ever tried organising a funeral and NO ONE can reach you? Making an already stressful situation 10000 times worse.

  • paulywauly_74 Firstname Middleinitial Lastname (@paulywauly_74) reported

    @giffgaff No 4g either. I couldn't even show my elderly housebound aunt who doesn't have internet any pics of urns so she could chose one for her late husband. The amount of stress your service, or there lack of, has piled on this week...

  • lnc0 🔞❌ Oh my God, They Were Headmates (@lnc0) reported

    Does anyone have experience on going: Absolutely Ham with a mobile service provider? @giffgaff literally sent me instructions to brick my new phone and now they're refusing to help fix the problem they created. So need some advice for how to get the ball rolling on that!
