    @giffgaff Too late. As I work away I can’t afford to think I maybe won’t speak to my family when I need to. I am cancelling. If you could furnish me with your member service email please; I can’t seem to find that on your website. Thanks.

    @giffgaff my SIM in my dongle says I’m connected but my laptop is saying the network can’t be joined. It just stopped working a few days ago and now just won’t join!

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

    @Claytoncast @ThreeUKSupport @giffgaff I was in Bologna Italy for most of the month of May and didn't have any problems. Maybe it depends where you are. Anyway good luck.

    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

    @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

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

    Okay, so it’s not just O2. People on other networks are having issues too O2, Three, Vodafone, EE, Giffgaff with most the issues BT, Tesco Mobile & Virgin Media with a few

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

    @woldsweather (Part 1) We completely understand how frustrating this must be for you both, however, the issue, as explained previously is most likely due to the location and masts in the area. - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • davidrossiter
    David Rossiter (@davidrossiter) reported

    @kestermann Also, why would VM02 not prefer to create a sub-brand and use its own network to deliver the service? Isn't that what it did with giffgaff in mobile? Does VMO2 need TalkTalk's network or is this really about buying four million new customers? Love to hear your thoughts Kester.

  • Karlsmi00479109
    Woof! (@Karlsmi00479109) reported

    @giffgaff Do you not provide people with a phone number to get in touch. I find it strange that giffgaff can never be reached and expect the impossible from customers.

  • boiry62128
    Jim Smithson (@boiry62128) reported

    @TommiesGuides @Andy2Gd @giffgaff Away in the motorhome for a few weeks around Yorkshire, Northumberland and the Lakes. Rarely got any better than a mediocre 3G and often nothing at all. best signal often up on the hills! It's a pathetic service. All about major cities.

  • Lefthanded_Linz
    lindsay (@Lefthanded_Linz) reported

    @TommiesGuides @Andy2Gd @giffgaff I’m on O2 for work and EE for my own. 9/10 times I have to use my own phone to do anything - O2 just has poor coverage. Not great for lone working as my employers do not know if I am safe or not! 🙄

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

    @comrade_chungus Regrettably giffgaff do not operate a call centre, so there is no way for us to call you. Please send us a DM, so we can investigate this issue further - giffgaff Megan

  • woldsweather
    Trevor Appleton (@woldsweather) reported

    @giffgaff No it's not due to location and masts. We have just moved on 30 miles to Jed burgh. Predictable no signal. I phoned her phone it rang I cut the call then all her messages came in.

    @westdorsetrick @GeorgeMonbiot I used to work for the Ombudsman who dealt with mobile phone company complaints The one thing that taught me was to NEVER have a contract !!! That’s why I’m on @giffgaff PAYG

  • KathRella
    Kath Rella (@KathRella) reported

    @giffgaff Yes, I have. It has been quite the awful experience. I think the time could have been spent more productively by trying to make a time machine out of whatever random items I can find behind the sofa, in an attempt to take back the hours giffgaff's inept agents have taken from me

    @comrade_chungus @giffgaff That’s terrible. I ordered like new a long while back and did not have this problem. I hope that you can resolve it ✅
