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

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

  • 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

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • 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 🤬😤

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

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

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

  • 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

  • Hussyville Hussyville (@Hussyville) reported

    @giffgaff Why did I just have a dodgy Indian call centre with a spoofed Northern Ireland number call me asking me to sign up to a new "discount" O2 tariff? Are you selling customer information?

    @BellaRoscetti @ollieburtonmed Me too - I bought a second hand iphone from GiffGaff, a model only a few years old but for half the price, only thing was slightly degraded battery life but not a huge issue. Paying that off over 2 years + voxi came to £29 pm!

  • omotforest david sinfield #fbpe #onlykidding (@omotforest) reported

    And my giffgaff data roaming doesn't work and my Vodafone to SIM has expired because I haven't used it for 30 months. Otherwise all is well with the world.

  • crash_cohle Mark Gibbons (@crash_cohle) reported

    @giffgaff Incident: 220723-000351 U R a horrible heartless bunch. Ofcom should expel u from the telecoms market. Words don't fail me when I think of you, you're not worth it! I can see why you are rated as the worst telecom company in the UK. A title u have definitely earned
