    @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)

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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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 🤬😤

  • macqueendan Daniel MacQueen (@macqueendan) reported from Tottenham, England

    @giffgaff I keep running out of credit on my monthly pay as you go plan. Auto top up was enabled leading to x2 charges now my account has run out for the third time. Wifi is turned on, HELP please

  • 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

  • ric_mc ric (@ric_mc) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff Morning! I just pop up a new 5G plan on my iPhone 12 but seems it’s not working for me even after I have set to work on 5G on my phone settings

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • Johndartspur John H (@Johndartspur) reported from Gravesend, England

    @giffgaff Hi contacting for my friend Maggie who's an OAP she has bought a £25 goodybag at roughly 3am today and its not showing up in her credit can you private message so I can give you her number as she can't contact anyone for help

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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

  • Mart_Cai Mart Cai (@Mart_Cai) reported

    @giffgaff Did you get hacked or something? Haven’t had any network coverage at all, all day. Not that full bars is ever a thing with you guys.

  • avofficial__ Av 👑❤️ (@avofficial__) reported

    @giffgaff hi, i already have a sim plan with you guys and wanted to get a mobile plan but when i tried to order it wouldnt go through/ can’t find my address. Can you help?

  • Whatkatiedidne2 Jane CR7 ❤️ (@Whatkatiedidne2) reported

    @giffgaff Thank you. I didnt realise you were trying to help me

  • DrSamHayes1 Dr Sam Hayes (@DrSamHayes1) reported

    @giffgaff is such s**t. Currently self isolating with covid and we’re having a power cut. Exactly the sort of time a mobile phone would be really useful. Essential even. But I’m stuck with one spot where I get phone signal and a paltry 3Gs if I’m lucky. Cannot wait to switch.

  • DrSamHayes1 Dr Sam Hayes (@DrSamHayes1) reported

    @giffgaff It’s not a transient issue because of the current power issue affecting our house. It’s ongoing poor performance. Constantly having to use Wi-Fi because my mobile connection is so poor. Text messages that just can’t send. Call strength that makes calls impossible at home.

  • DrSamHayes1 Dr Sam Hayes (@DrSamHayes1) reported

    @giffgaff I’ve been through the community forum stuff and done your manual roaming. I think it’s just your service isn’t very good. I know loads of people who have the same experience. As I say, it’s cheap for a reason.

  • jjs999jjs 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Jabberwocky🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@jjs999jjs) reported

    @katiec1314 Giffgaff runs on the o2 network but is cheaper cos of no shops etc, all run by the users. been with them for over 11yrs and many others I know have joined in that time to.

  • DrSamHayes1 Dr Sam Hayes (@DrSamHayes1) reported

    @giffgaff It’s not a temporary signal issue. It’s a complete failure of your network to actually provide coverage. I’ve done all your community advice stuff and fiddled with settings and all sorts. It’s just useless.

  • V6xix6V V6xix6V (@V6xix6V) reported

    @giffgaff This has been an ongoing issue since switching to giffgaff. However, it's been since Friday that all signal or whatever has been lost. DE1 3LD

  • DrSamHayes1 Dr Sam Hayes (@DrSamHayes1) reported

    @giffgaff I’ve asked for help before through your forum. Why different this time? I’ll see if I have the energy to try more giffgaff solutions. But that doesn’t explain why most times I can’t even send a text first time and have the resend multiple times just to text.
