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

    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

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

    @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.

  • 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

    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?

    @giffgaff just received a second emergency alert this morning? Not to brag but…

  • AndyMRoberts
    Andrew Roberts 💬🏳️‍🌈 (@AndyMRoberts) reported

    @Rick_Turner @TheSimonC90 I’m with giffgaff which runs on O2. What is the coverage like where you are? If you were not receiving a 4G/5G signal at the time of the test, you wouldn’t have received the alert. There are so many places around here that only get 3G and they won’t have received the alert.

  • GameTripperUK
    GameTripper | Matt Gardner (@GameTripperUK) reported

    @gatchacaz That's so weird! Also, I flirted with Giffgaff years ago. I hate the forum-based support. So weird!

  • FelicitySmall1
    CatLadyChemist (@FelicitySmall1) reported

    @PaulNewbery4 @imalexwatson What network(s) may I ask? We’re they on data only or Wi-Fi? Also 4g enabled? It seems anyone connected to wifi, O2 masts (three, giffgaff etc) and older phones (not 4g and above enabled) didn’t get the alert.

  • ShazzBakes
    ShazzBakes (@ShazzBakes) reported

    @TrickyMcKicky I've 197 lines of data (still awaiting network from 20). GiffGaff, Tesco, iD, Virgin: some named that + "O2" or "EE" but most didn't. So I can't sort properly unless the actual provider is listed. There are 4 Three customers who DID get the alert. So it wasn't a complete ****-up.

    @jackwallington @giffgaff Hi Jack, this is not a giffgaff issue. Many others did not receive this.

    @beckymil1 @ScottGShore I was sat watching the footie with 8 of my mates, literally all on apple but one on O2, I’m on Vodafone a couple on EE, a couple of Three and on giffgaff, some went off, some didn’t, all down to notification and privacy settings

  • PhattGreg
    Greg Sully (@PhattGreg) reported

    Hi @giffgaff just wondering if there are reasons why I received no emergency alert today at 3pm ish? got multiple giff gaff phones and an iPad that received no alert, and curious if outside of it being a failure with the goverment system, if there is another reason?

  • MulierFortis
    Mulier Fortis (@MulierFortis) reported

    Well, for some reason my phone didn't go off yesterday - and the signal was down to H+ instead of the usual 4G... was this a @giffgaff or @O2 problem in Thanet?
