  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • SixCylinderDean Dean (@SixCylinderDean) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

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

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

    @giffgaff you guys having internet issues? For the last two days I've had nothing but trouble trying to connect to the internet. Getting quite frustrated to be honest.

  • incrediblylate Su Something (@incrediblylate) reported

    @giffgaff why can't I call 0810 numbers to France. I have £20+ in credit on top of my goodybag. I've added +33 in front of it but still doesn't work. Help please, I urgently need to call this number. Is there are a setting to change??

  • Onebiskuit PaulM 🇮🇪🇫🇷🇨🇦🚲🐟 (@Onebiskuit) reported

    @drmatthewhardy We alighted on Giffgaff originally because my daughter was in Canada termtime, and wiith Giffgaff you have a permanent mobile number but can buy a month’s service ( a “Goodybag”) at a time without renewing, so she just paid £10 each month she was back home, for about 10gb.

  • daycoder hywel (@daycoder) reported

    Opened box with refurb phone from GiffGaff. Taking the phone out, the charging cable and SIM extractor fell out from the other side. But only the SIM extractor made it to the floor. The cable vanished on the way down. Completely baffled. Tiny wormhole?

  • YESforScotland4 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Robert Wallace 🇪🇺 (@YESforScotland4) reported

    @giffgaff I pay for SIM for Granddaughter through giffgaff, she has lost her phone. Tried calling but straight to voicemail. Is their anything can be done to locate last signal?

  • k_williams_96 kieran williams (@k_williams_96) reported

    @giffgaff what’s going on with your data? Can’t access no apps what so ever! Never had this problem until now! It’s been like this for the past 3 days

  • incrediblylate Su Something (@incrediblylate) reported

    @giffgaff Yes I have the number saved in my contacts. I've had friends try it from their number and it doesn't work for them either.

  • ETinkley ellaaaaa (@ETinkley) reported

    @giffgaff I put my card on a friends account and now they don’t want it, but neither of us know the login and she doesn’t use the phone anymore! I need to stop the payments please.

    @s_troughton Oh dear, Steve, that's odd. Please try clearing the cache and cookies on your browser, and then try that out again. If you have the same issues, we would recommend trying that out using another internet browser or device. - giffgaff Emer.

    @xlizagx @ThreeUK @giffgaff My friends have so much trouble with them no signal or something to do with their data
