    @giffgaff They said this “The engineers that are doing the work on the mast have not given us any updates. The engineers do update our network page, all you need to do is enter your postcode and it will bring up if there is issues in your area and if they are going to be delayed” No Help!

    @brendonvbone I was with giffgaff (o2) and its bollocks. Now with Vodafone. I get decent signal apart from half time. At half time I can get some internet but it's very slow. That's unavoidable with 18k people all using their phones though.

    @giffgaff I have been in touch a few times over the last week or two through my account but never get an update of the mast repair! #NoServiceHere

  • pachallis Peter Challis (@pachallis) reported from Fareham, England

    @notmany4benny @carterBFC @SamsungUK One of the disadvantages of living in rural locations. At least you must have beautiful views instead. I had problems with Three and I live 200m from a transmitter where I get flaky voice calls. Apparently I need a Three supplied phone to get VOLTE. Currently on O2/Giffgaff.

    @astra_ken1 Hi there Ken. Unfortunately there is a mast down in your area at the moment. Our engineers are working to get your service back to normal. While we do this, you might have some trouble with your calls, texts and data - giffgaff Nicole (1/2)

  • grovrac09 Rachel (@grovrac09) reported

    @giffgaff Okay, no problem. Can I still use my existing SIM when the phone arrives, or will I need to order/activate a Giffgaff SIM?

  • Seanylane Seán Patrick Lane (@Seanylane) reported

    @giffgaff my mobile data has barely worked for the last 2 days and I can’t seem to ask a question in the community area as the buttons don’t respond. Can I get a little help please

  • GFFurness GFFurness (@GFFurness) reported

    @giffgaff Hello! I’ve looked at your help pages but can’t see anything. Do you have any plans to enable wifi calling? We have no mobile signal at home and it’s a real issue now more companies are sending codes by text.

  • luke_hillwalker Luke Hillwalker (@luke_hillwalker) reported

    @giffgaff Hi GiffGaff thanks for the email reminding me I have credit and not using it – bad timing as O2 your network carrier has been down in my area for 4 days and ‘maybe fixed by the weekend’ Not good Not happy

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

    @Vsouvatzoglou How strange William, there doesn't appear to be any issues on our end. Can you please clear your cache, cookies and history and try again. Perhaps even another web browser to see if that helps - giffgaff Nicole

  • umanu1986 Anthony McCormick (@umanu1986) reported

    @giffgaff my 4g is on but iv not been able to connect to the Internet for the last 30 mins or so. Is the network down ?

  • james8campbell James Campbell (@james8campbell) reported

    @Pauline54232922 @4lanFrancis @tescomobile Giffgaff an O2 network provider like Tesco mobile do unlimited calls and texts plus 1GB data for £6, no price rises in the six years I’ve been with them. They also still include roaming if you decide to go on holidays. They do packages up to unlimited 5G everything for £35.
