    @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 will do but it happens all the time and has been going on for months at first I though it was because there was an active goody bag but no credit but even with credit it still has the same issue I tried asking the community a while back and got nowhere

    @CharmingFishFan We're sorry to hear that and we appreciate how frustrating this must be for you. However, if you're with Giffgaff, you'd need to contact them directly for further help and support.

    And my giffgaff data roaming doesn't work and my Vodafone to SIM has expired because I haven't used it for 30 months. Otherwise all is well with the world.

    @O2 Hi are the issues in LE12 too?? Had no signal all day and the same in LE5. Although I'm with @giffgaff they run on your network. When you have family in hospital, and can't call out or receive calls, this is adding to the stress!

    @giffgaff Lost my phone. EVERY aspect of my digital existence locked due to 2FA. Your agent asked questions I can’t answer because can’t access banking or emails. Please help escalate so I can prove who I am with driving license/ passport etc! #giffgaff

  • comrade_chungus ??? (@comrade_chungus) reported

    @giffgaff ... I'll never ever use your company again, and will urge others to do the same. I've contacted an agent to dispute the ridiculous quote given, but I'd like to raise a formal complaint too regarding the conduct of your teams responsible for...

    @giffgaff I bought a second hand iPhone 8 2 months ago and the camera doesn’t focus despite me trying all the trouble shooting. It seems my only option is to send it in for a repair and be phoneless? Or just buy another…what do you suggest? I need my phone for work.

    @giffgaff I haven't received an email to reset my account. I just want to cancel my subscription please.

  • JuJulesberry Jules 💙 (@JuJulesberry) reported

    @giffgaff can you please explain why my daughter is unable to make or receive any calls (via WhatsApp or normal telephone non wifi calls) when data signal is lost despite having credit and an active goody bag??

  • CharmingFishFan Mrs C (@CharmingFishFan) reported

    @giffgaff hi, I've had no phone signal all day, yet being told no issue. Have tried rebooting phone x3, checked all settings etc and all good. Hubby on same network with you and he's the same
