  • TyneTom Tom Bailey (@TyneTom) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @gazza_d @KarlOnSea @girodilento I did hear that you are further down the priority list for bandwidth congestion with giffgaff than O2. (Also in a macho - mine is bigger than yours kind of way, I have more data than you are allowed buy, 40GB. Travelling a lot these days)

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @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.

    @izabela_musial @StokeyUpdates I switched FROM Giffgaff to EE ("UK's best network" 🙄) and feel like a right chump. Although at least right now my bills are free and I'll be able to exit contract if it doesn't improve.

  • _MrFisa_ Asif (@_MrFisa_) reported

    Rubbish network these days . @giffgaff

  • sham91 Athsham Mahmood (@sham91) reported

    @giffgaff joke of a company. Probably one of the worst who have no idea whats going on. Still waiting for my phone or a full refund. They give you timelines which they don’t stick to. #liars #thieves

  • sparklybex Bex Chalmers (@sparklybex) reported

    @giffgaff do you have a number I can call, I’m helping a neighbour who’s phone has been lost/stolen, she’s really struggling to contact you online and is getting very overwhelmed. Please can you help?

  • iamKayBayBay 💗 (@iamKayBayBay) reported

    @giffgaff It's been over 24 hours now and nobody has responded. This is an emergency and you need to escalate this query as soon as possible, who does she need to contact for that to happen?

  • VinceHardwick Vince Hardwick (@VinceHardwick) reported

    @SMARTYMobileUK Hi 👋 I have a PAYG physical SIM with @giffgaff. Just been issued with a Pixel 7 work phone by my employer, which supports dual SIM - one physical SIM, one eSIM. But giffgaff don't support eSIM 😔 do you? If so, could I transfer my number to a SMARTY eSIM?
