  • 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.

  • 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

    @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)

  • ScooterRiderFMX 🏳️‍🌈 #ImMeWhoAreYou 🏳️‍🌈 (@ScooterRiderFMX) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Data still not working. I’ll be glad when I ditch @giffgaff

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

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

  • chrismayes .💙#FBPPR #FBPE You have no authority here johnson (@chrismayes) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Hey @giffgaff #DontFundGBNews or i terminate my contract Just sayin.

  • 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.

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

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

    @giffgaff Because it was all I could and still all I can afford. But even if I could go and splash out on a brand new phone (current one is a broken s7 edge) and fancy shmancy contract, I'd still stay with Giffgaff because I have NEVER had any issue at all. Xx

  • Bucksfizzer Aquaesulian (@Bucksfizzer) reported

    @giffgaff I lived in Beaconsfield and wanted to support local businesses lol

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

    @Cxrtxn_47 Hi Andrew. As we're a SIM only network, this means that we wouldn't release the operating system updates, and this would come directly from the manufacturer of the phone. - giffgaff Emer.

    @Pulpsong Oh dear, Wayne. Please can you clear your cache, cookies and web history then try this again. Please also try using a different browser or device, as this should help - giffgaff Jade

  • mandlecreed mandle (@mandlecreed) reported

    @giffgaff I'd moved house, was on 3 at the time and in this house I barely got signal, so decided to change carriers. GiffGaff seemed to have the best sim only deal, got a sim, the rest is history. Bought 2 or 3 phones through yourselves too. All good stuff!

  • simbalion101 Simbalion101 (@simbalion101) reported

    @bgrey62253 what mobile network are you on I am fed up with Vodafone because I only get a 1GB of data and I will look at going with O2 or giffgaff because I on sim only dm if you want to?

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

    @epicfail2048 We're not sure Tom. You could try the SIM in another phone to see if this helps at all. If not, then it could be the SIM at fault. Send us a DM however and we can check the account to ensure no issues are showing on the account. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • epicfail2048 Tom (@epicfail2048) reported

    @giffgaff hi my daughters phone has no service? All other family members unaffected , faulty sum card?

    @giffgaff I am in no way affiliated with #giffgaff & have been purchasing their goodiebags for a decade now. I recently has an issue through no fault of giffgaff but they went above and beyond to help me resolve it. I Just thought I would say the assistance is much appreciated. #goodybag
