    @WilliamNB @giffgaff If it works elsewhere and other networks work then yes switch to one that works. But maybe don't pick another provider that uses O2 network.

    @giffgaff is there a problem at the moment; don’t seem to be able to login via the app or online.

  • Laica23 Laica (@Laica23) reported

    @giffgaff I had this issue setting up the previous account as well, the site takes too long and times out, can I set up the SIM on a laptop? After getting through to my bank that is?

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

    @FullerHistory We can appreciate that this must have been very concerning when this occurred Anthony. Is the SIM not working at all? We have a policy whereby if a SIM is not used for outgoing calls, texts or data, nor topped up in a 6-month period, it is deactivated. (1/2) - giffgaff Jeanette

  • JMarTV JMar (@JMarTV) reported

    @giffgaff Used to be good but it’s going down hill. They say it community driven but the plans are terrible . Thinking of moving to an other provider .

  • MrsP_A Debra Patterson 💙 (@MrsP_A) reported

    Hello @giffgaff. Can't seem to top up. Not receiving code via email or text, and 43430 isn't working. Help, please.

  • bcolinevans Colin Evans (@bcolinevans) reported

    @giffgaff Sacked giffgaff, response to problems is non existent, certainly won’t recommend.

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

    @Laica23 You can use a laptop, phone, tablet etc. if you wish when activating a new SIM. Hopefully you're able to get the payment unblocked and able to process your new activation with no further issues once completed. - giffgaff Jeanette
