  • 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)

  • GracialNation gracialnation (@GracialNation) reported from Hackney, England

    @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!

    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?

  • staylowkae baby wasteman. (@staylowkae) reported from London, England

    giffgaff finally back to more data less money but ofc its slow now 😐

  • Loucathwil ☃️🎄🦌loucathwil🧵✂️🧸 (@Loucathwil) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    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

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

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

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • Agathi0usssss Agathe (@Agathi0usssss) reported from Poplar, England

    @giffgaff It’s ain’t working since yesterday afternoon I have tried to disconnect and reconnect it ain’t working and the network seems to be fine where I am right now 😡 I’m paying £25 to have unlimited and right now it isn’t!

  • Ryanclairmont 🅡🅨🅐🅝 (@Ryanclairmont) reported from Ilford, England

    Really not good enough, since Thursday got a goodybag sim for my daughter & it's still not working till now,you should haul all sales of sims till the issues are fix. #ofcom #cisas #ombudsmanservice #giffgaff

  • AzukaFred Wang Lin (@AzukaFred) reported from Dartford, England

    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

  • 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

  • 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 🤬😤

  • 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

  • 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.

    @olivias63 @MercedesAMGF1 Is it bad the one thing I took from this is your a fellow giffgaff user 😭

  • Testipickle Bloke (@Testipickle) reported

    @CompanySuisse @giffgaff Be careful on Giffgaff, have a back up sim if your phone allows it cos the network goes down, a LOT. No calls in or out, sometimes days at a time. Nobody to complain to either other than other users on their forum.

  • HristiyanHrist4 Chris (@HristiyanHrist4) reported

    @giffgaff how come i had full service yesterday and now i have none. Fix it!

  • campras Campras (@campras) reported

    Dear @giffgaff why my roaming in Italy doesn’t come back with a fresh new goodybag? I’ve tried everything and beyond: your app says I have 5Gb+money. But still, I cannot connect to any provider. Please Help!

  • The_PandaClan PandaTrds (Panda clan✌️🐼) (@The_PandaClan) reported

    @giffgaff The worst network on planet earth

  • ihopethisis Wat (@ihopethisis) reported

    @giffgaff Is the social media manager not paying attention to current events or is this a cynical attempt to court controversy? Either way this post was a bad decision

  • hadleypch Paul Hadley (@hadleypch) reported

    @malcolm_stack @adamboultonTABB @VodafoneGroup Don't have contracts with mobile companies and use sim only people like Smarty and GiffGaff instead. I pay £10 a month and can simply cancel it myself if required. It's v simple , no tie in, no chance of all this nonsense.

  • AlexNapierNomad Alex Napier Holland 🦍 (@AlexNapierNomad) reported

    @giffgaff we both know that GiffGaff have totally dropped the ball on eSIM - you’re years behind already. Now that Apple’s killing eSIM will you finally support them - or do you plan to simply let your business fall apart?

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

    @Bagpus Hi there. We do not offer or support eSIMs unfortunately - giffgaff Jade

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

    @editsfqx That's not good. Are you able to send us your full postcode via DM and we'll see if there are any issues in your area that could be causing this to occur. - giffgaff Jeanette
