    R.e. the @giffgaff phone app, it NEVER remembers my password, and neither do I, as I'm always forced to add capital letters and other details I will never remember. Please make your services more accessible to those of us with neurological handicaps xx #neurodiversesquad

  • LashanStuff Lashan (@LashanStuff) reported from Camberwell, England

    @giffgaff There wasn't, the network just slows down to a crawl/stops functioning from congestion levels that are literally a daily occurrence there

  • LashanStuff Lashan (@LashanStuff) reported from Camberwell, England

    @giffgaff Service was practically unusable around London Bridge station at 5pm yesterday

  • BartBoski Bartek 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇵🇱 (@BartBoski) reported from Camberwell, England

    Hey @Ofcom we have been having issues with our mobile number that’s with @giffgaff no calls/texts from EE are coming through! (pretty basic part of service) Reported to @giffgaff beginning of August - still not resolved. (Suspect it’s been going on for much longer) can you help?

  • LauraSummersNow Laura Summers (@LauraSummersNow) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Hi Giffgaff! Something has gone wrong in North Greenwich with your network. Calls keep cutting out here. We’re all going to change network (unless this is just about to fix!) - it’s my husband and I (on Giffgaff) plus a neighbour on Sky (also 02)

  • sofiloco Sofi Summers (@sofiloco) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff hi Giff Gaff 👋🏼 my husband is having problems with his data - it’s not working at all. We’re in N1 London. Is it down?

  • Mr_MartinCalder Mr Martin Calder (@Mr_MartinCalder) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @EE Giffgaff has unlimited everything for £35 and even that is very expensive and crazy for the price in the current day’s we are living networks need to help their customers

  • EdoreFaine Cr£am (@EdoreFaine) reported from London, England

    How comes everyone with #giffgaff never answer the #phone #London #voicemail 🤨

  • TronalddumpUS Tronald Dump. (@TronalddumpUS) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff your network in #blackheath is atrocious. I get better signal sitting on a beach in Botswana, what's up with that?

  • JelllyBeaan Gezza (@JelllyBeaan) reported from Romford, England

    @giffgaff hi team is it possible to have some help in regards to my account?

  • Maliwil RAVEAUD Emmanuel (@Maliwil) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Oh thanks so much, only one solution refund my money back on 5 days, so I don't have a phone for a new week. Thanks @dpd_support for your perfect work ... So know you are going to give me a new phone 🤬😤

  • Bukom_Boy Mr Wellington (@Bukom_Boy) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @giffgaff is there a problem with your network coverage ? My network has been off since 12 noon and it’s still not back.

  • PaulGrayburn PG tweets (@PaulGrayburn) reported from Romford, England

    @DanJay946 @EE @ThreeUK @giffgaff You know they use the O2 network. You’d get a better performance with them instead of giffgaff.

  • nealdcruz Neal D'Cruz (@nealdcruz) reported from Bromley, England

    @giffgaff hi, need to cancel my account but cannot log in. Can someone assist. Thx

  • fchaps68 Fiona Chapman**••..** (@fchaps68) reported from Brentwood, England

    @SophieEB @giffgaff @ThreeUK Giffgaff is great and when u go abroad I just buy a local sim and you still use your UK number on wats app. So much cheaper!Obviously only works if your phone is not locked to a particular network tho! X

  • suhailpatel Suhail Patel (@suhailpatel) reported from London, England

    @Geek_Manager @jaseemabid @watbe @filipecvarela @ThreeUK @EE @giffgaff Three around Central London has been very spotty for me too (although it’s worse on iPhones than Androids, maybe it’s the iOS baseband on Three’s bands). Vodafone have been my go-to pretty much everywhere. Unfortunately the support is abysmal, guess you can’t have it all.

  • fayecavender Faye (@fayecavender) reported

    @giffgaff I’ve been trying to contact you since Boxing Day. Issues still not resolved! The refurbished phone I bought for my daughter loses charge after 10 mins and now won’t turn on at all! We received it in early November but not used until Xmas day. Please help.

  • JessicaSheen76 Jessica Sheen (@JessicaSheen76) reported

    @giffgaff Aweful, awful, awful! Big mistake to buy a returned phone from this company. I have been a customer for over 6 yrs and happy with my monthly service but big mistake to buy a phone from you. Have returned it but now, over 6 days later, it still hasnt been received.

  • headybow Elvst (@headybow) reported

    @giffgaff Hi giffgaff, what’s happening to your network today, I can’t make any call to mobile besides landlines. Is there an outage on your line today?

  • Mykiel_B MikeKAB (@Mykiel_B) reported

    @Kimbo69957778 @giffgaff Hi Kimbo, locked phones come up with ‘sim not supported or phone locked to a different network etc’. Is the sim you’ve got activated at all? Try the sim in another unlocked or locked to o2 phone to see if that works. Also see if u can try a sim from a df network in it to check.

  • NeilARenwick Neil Renwick (@NeilARenwick) reported

    @giffgaff I got a text yesterday saying my goody bag has expired - it should auto-renew each month. I've logged an agent request but no reply yet and I'm completely without service presently. How can I get this resolved faster?

  • 0daaa64011c4449 alex (@0daaa64011c4449) reported

    @giffgaff I have received my refurbished iPhone and I am disappointed that it has a fault with the speaker when i make a phone call I have no sound and the microphone doesn’t work this only happens on calls I have a return created but it doesn’t let me explain the problem

  • JessicaSheen76 Jessica Sheen (@JessicaSheen76) reported

    @giffgaff Also you sold a phone where someone else's details were still on it so texts coming through asking them to make urgent contact for being late with very and next payments!!! No sound when you call someone. Battery will says its 60% but cut out.

  • JessicaSheen76 Jessica Sheen (@JessicaSheen76) reported

    @giffgaff Its as though I was sold a prank phone for £130. It is of no use to anyone. Yes, I will have my refund now please plus compensation for the stress this issue has caused.

  • kelc_06 kelly cunningham (@kelc_06) reported

  • thatguyuk Chris Field (@thatguyuk) reported

    Hey @giffgaff I bought a refurb phone from you for Christmas and it has a microphone and ringer fault. I want to return it and get a replacement. How can I when you just send me round in circles. Help!
