  • ejtheginger EJ (@ejtheginger) reported from Blackburn, England

    Tales of Mother: So my mum calls me up and asks me to 'fix her phone'. What she means is that she has a second phone she wants everything transferring to, and has got the pak code for her to take her number to GiffGaff. I rock up...

  • AdrianBeeby Adrian H Beeby (@AdrianBeeby) reported from Chorley, England

    @ThreeUK Data is as ‘okay’ if you could ever get a signal but then prices got crazy. What a nightmare giving notice was - the call operators just won’t give in and let you simply cancel. Moved to @giffgaff and been happy ever since. @giffgaff you are awesome.

    @giffgaff I’ve had a response regarding my “repair” today and have been told that the issue isn’t under warranty (faulty battery) and that you want £253 to repair it when the phone only cost £179?!

  • sarahhastings_ Sarah Hastings (@sarahhastings_) reported

    Giffgaff cancelled my SIM without warning and now I've lost the number I've had for 20 years and the credit I had on there for when I visit the UK. I'm livid. Absolutely disgusted with the service.

  • WarlockSkills The trees speak Latin (@WarlockSkills) reported

    @giffgaff my signal doesn’t seem to be working, I’ve tried everything to try and get it back... do you have problems in the NE34 area?

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

    @lowep87 We're very sorry to hear this, Phil. Please can you provide your full UK postcode via DM. So we can check for issues in the area - giffgaff Jade

  • WarlockSkills The trees speak Latin (@WarlockSkills) reported

    @giffgaff I have just done this and I still have no signal. What’s weird is my mum who lives at home with me and is with giffgaff and her signal hasn’t went off at all

  • WarlockSkills The trees speak Latin (@WarlockSkills) reported

    @giffgaff Hi @giffgaff it’s been a few hours since you tweeted this and my signal is still not working. It says the 5G mast is down in my area but my phone does not support 5G... what should I do?

  • NirvanaWright NirvanaWright (@NirvanaWright) reported

    @TalkTalk DM’d but seriously I haven’t had internet since 4:30pm today, having to work via my @giffgaff mobile phone data. Not cool. All week internet has been intermittent and so unreliable. Paying for a useless service 😡😡😡

  • lowep87 phil lowe (@lowep87) reported

    @giffgaff my network keeps disconnecting and only to make emergency calls only started today

  • sarahisnothere Sarah Doran (@sarahisnothere) reported
