    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

    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?

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

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

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

  • 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

    Richard Anthony Lloyd (@richardlloydact) reported from Dartford, England

    @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.

    @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

    @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.

    janet leigh (@janetuk19) reported

    @O2 hi, I need to unlock an O2 device but I can't create an O2 account to get onto live chat as I'm a Giffgaff customer so my number isn't recognising. Can someone help unlock a phone if I give you the IMEI number?

  • Yorksims
    John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @EDI_SarahMQ @giffgaff That's a shame because blocking the phone only bars it from connecting to the network but all of your child's data will still be on it so fingers crossed whoever finds it can't get past your child's pin code and so can't get into the phone.

  • WarlockGlyndalf
    Glyn Roberts (@WarlockGlyndalf) reported

    @giffgaff How long after switching will I start getting useable mobile Internet speeds? Switched yesterday but only getting 0.2 mbps up and around the same down. Checked the usual solutions but no luck.

  • DJ_Unreal

    @giffgaff I upgraded a phone to 5g and the only thing I have noticed it the signal is worse than before. Not see 5g once since having the phone. Atrocious signal

  • ItsCallumtomz
    Callum (@ItsCallumtomz) reported

    @giffgaff Any timescale on when it’s going to be fixed? I don’t fancy waking a few streets away to get service for the next few weeks

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

    @ItsCallumtomz Hi Callum. We completely understand your frustration, however, we can see that a mast nearby isn't working, so this is why you're having issues. You wouldn't need to SIM swap, so don't worry about that. - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • jruddy99
    John Ruddy (@jruddy99) reported

    @hapsci Thats weird, because giffgaff use the O2 network (as do Tesco Mobile and others) and I've usually found the O2 service to be fine.... not an expert on iPhones, though!
