  • 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.

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • ric_mc ric (@ric_mc) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff Morning! I just pop up a new 5G plan on my iPhone 12 but seems it’s not working for me even after I have set to work on 5G on my phone settings

    Day 2.5 and still no 4G on EE or GiffGaff, with the latter having far less signal than the former.

  • theandymac65 Andy MacKenzie 💙 (@theandymac65) reported

  • Weaves14 🇬🇧Mike Weavers 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Weaves14) reported

    @GethinJones123 I moved to giffgaff a couple of years ago. Uses O2 network. I pay £8/month for unlimited calls and texts and 2Gb of data. Options range from £5 for 500Mb to £35 for unlimited data. Never had any problems, and you can change your plan each month or cancel anytime.

  • AmoAmmo amo (@AmoAmmo) reported

    I think it's weird that giffgaff don't give you any sort of bonus if you're a long term customer and you buy a handset from them. I want a phone with more storage but I'm not made of money.

  • lyricistbeats Lyricist Sam Beats (@lyricistbeats) reported

    @sarah93hendry Hi Sarah. We're really sorry to hear about this. We don't have a call centre as we're web based, so we're not sure who you've called. Can you please send us a DM so that we can help you further? - giffgaff Tasbiya
