    Still no joy with my phone, my days are numbered now with @giffgaff after many years loyal support #no4g

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

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

  • 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)

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff No phone signal where you live? That sounds nice Actually

  • 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.

    Hey @giffgaff can you get onto O2 about the mobile signal in Sunderland City Centre, it’s almost impossible to even load twitter.

  • MXOFO Lee (@MXOFO) reported from Newburn, England

    My @ThreeUK contract ends at the end of this month. Got an email the day before they announced they’re dropping their free roaming trying to convince me to renew. No thanks. I’m off to @giffgaff. I don’t give my custom to companies that fail to keep their word.

  • JulieVintageTea Julie Clay (@JulieVintageTea) reported from Shiremoor, England

  • technologytotea Maggie Morrissey (@technologytotea) reported

    So how does a customer prevent constant pestering phone calls? This company keeps changing its number so blocking via phone is not effective. Any tips? @giffgaff

  • rebby1992 Rebekah Chapman (@rebby1992) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @giffgaff can you tell me why you keep turning off my network? I need my internet and calls for work and you keep cutting me off. Your website doesn't have any information on it as to what is going on.

  • Kat71645262 Kat (@Kat71645262) reported

    @giffgaff hi, my daughters phone is saying "no sim" where it usually says "giffgaff." Is there a problem with the network?

    @EvanEdinger Three were fine, nothing special. O2 (I was on giffgaff though) were great tbh, no complaints. Just switched back to Vodafone who I had on a work phone a few years back, they were the only network who could give me signal in the property I lived in at the time. Going ok so far 🤞
