    @l0ulaa I had this issue in Lincoln with Three... had to change to giffgaff as it was so bad!

  • 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.

  • 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

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

  • 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 🤬😤

  • 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)

  • CliveJGoodwin Clive J Goodwin (@CliveJGoodwin) reported from Bromley, England

    @giffgaff Just activated my SIM and ported my old number over from previous network. Seemless process. Fast 4G signal also. 👍

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • uncoolbob Bob MacCallum (@uncoolbob) reported from London, England

    No signal, phone or data here @giffgaff

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

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

  • 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

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

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

    @giffgaff hi, need to cancel my account but cannot log in. Can someone assist. Thx

  • MVautrin Angela M Sturniolo (@MVautrin) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @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.

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

  • mturf mturf (@mturf) reported

    @BBCBreakfast I can't help but feel that the reason turnips have kept coming up may be caused by a giffgaff TV advert.

  • TweetSamJordan Sam Jordan (@TweetSamJordan) reported

    @giffgaff use @VMO2News’s mobile network so the infrastructure component is managed by them, however GG are the service provider. It quickly became clear that something wasn’t right - I couldn’t receive calls, text messages or use iPhone functionality like messenger…

  • DavesInfosec Dave (@DavesInfosec) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks, I've already tried that but still not working.

  • TurinTest I passed Turin test (@TurinTest) reported

    hey @giffgaff I'm in east London (Tower Hamlets/Hackney) and was expecting a very important phone call but it looks like there is some outage? I asked two people to phone me and it says "it has not been possible to connect". I can't phone anybody either.

    @fomo00373386 There are currently four significant MVNOs (Mobile Virtual Network Operators) using O2's network, namely Giffgaff, Sky Mobile, Tesco Mobile and Lyca Mobile.

    @TurinTest No we have not received your DM, we shall check if there's an issue with this. In the meantime please send your postcode publicly. - giffgaff Ann

  • TweetSamJordan Sam Jordan (@TweetSamJordan) reported

    Two weeks ago, my contract ended with @VodafoneUK and I decided to try an alternative network. I thought I’d try @giffgaff SIM only because I wanted to see if their network performance (O2’s) was better than Vodafone’s. (I’d also reduce my bill from £70 to £20 a month).

  • DavesInfosec Dave (@DavesInfosec) reported

    @giffgaff Tried to DM you but not working. works to others on Twitter.
