    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Maliwil RAVEAUD Emmanuel (@Maliwil) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Oh thanks so much, only one solution refund my money back on 5 days, so I don't have a phone for a new week. Thanks @dpd_support for your perfect work ... So know you are going to give me a new phone 🤬😤

  • 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!

    @giffgaff Hi, not tried yet but apple has no ‘hotspot’ listed in system menu. when I contacted someone on their ‘support’,chat (cannot checkback as did not keep the ref. number, he proposed that Apple did not support Giffgaff. (When I get my sim this week I will try and see).

  • tooftalf 𝕋𝕙𝕒𝕥 𝕄𝕖𝕝 𝕁𝕒𝕪𝕓𝕖𝕖 (@tooftalf) reported

    @giffgaff can you help pls? I've started getting texts from giffgaff re phone upgrade/new phones, which I don't want. The link says stop msgs with a link, but when I put that into my browser I have no idea where I say "please stop texting me about mobile phones".

  • GingerSlim Roni Sighs (@GingerSlim) reported

    I'm in Ireland, but my phone is still connected to a UK network (giffgaff), so does that mean that calls to UK numbers are still included in my free minutes like they normally are?

  • monicacatapusan 🥑🦔 (@monicacatapusan) reported

    No I actually need to change my service provider because @giffgaff is embarrassing me with the TRASH internet I get the moment I leave a WiFi zone.

  • xchrzc ッ 𝘤 𝘩 𝘳 𝘪 𝘴 クリス (@xchrzc) reported

    @giffgaff your data speeds are a load of shite fellas, why am I paying for a service that can’t even reach 3 bar connection speeds, consistently sat at 1-2 bars all day, every day. Wtf is going on?

  • ssbib85 Salford Citizen (@ssbib85) reported

    @giffgaff Just today. We inserted it into her phone and it activated. However her profile says it’s still needs activating. I try to input the activation code and it says it’s already active. We can make calls no problem buts it’s on the new number as the old one hasn’t transferred yet.

  • MaryKnightArt Mary Knight: Allsorts (@MaryKnightArt) reported

    @giffgaff @Apple Good news I can use a sim, but tethering would help when I need something in large on my ipad.
