Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Portsmouth and nearby locations:

  • ChrisOverthrow Chris Overthrow (@ChrisOverthrow) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @brendonvbone I was with giffgaff (o2) and its bollocks. Now with Vodafone. I get decent signal apart from half time. At half time I can get some internet but it's very slow. That's unavoidable with 18k people all using their phones though.

  • Sparky_Darryl Darryl Barlow (@Sparky_Darryl) reported from Emsworth, England

    @giffgaff They said this “The engineers that are doing the work on the mast have not given us any updates. The engineers do update our network page, all you need to do is enter your postcode and it will bring up if there is issues in your area and if they are going to be delayed” No Help!

  • larstall Liam Arstall (@larstall) reported from Havant, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Done many times. The coverage is awful and getting worse. Not sure what O2 are doing, but seems to be impacting Sky, Tesco and GiffGaff - other’s networks my friends use. Used to be very good

    @giffgaff I have been in touch a few times over the last week or two through my account but never get an update of the mast repair! #NoServiceHere

  • pachallis Peter Challis (@pachallis) reported from Fareham, England

    @notmany4benny @carterBFC @SamsungUK One of the disadvantages of living in rural locations. At least you must have beautiful views instead. I had problems with Three and I live 200m from a transmitter where I get flaky voice calls. Apparently I need a Three supplied phone to get VOLTE. Currently on O2/Giffgaff.

    @tescomobile @AnnReyn75876642 Tesco don't have a "physical" network, Tesco mobile is just rebranded O2, same as giffgaff, same as sky mobile.

  • tomfenn8 Tom Fenn (@tomfenn8) reported

    @mmalex Wait until you run out of data a week before your next bill, and EE then hold you to the floor slamming you with outrageously expensive daily bolt-ons! You've been warned! I sacked EE and went with Giffgaff, which I agree is slow, but at least Giffgaff don't take the pi*s.

  • kate_rad_ Kate (@kate_rad_) reported

    @giffgaff Hi, are you currently having any issues? My dad’s recurring goodybag has errored for no reason and he is left with no data, minutes or texts while on site at work. He needs his phone to do his job.

  • Seanylane Seán Patrick Lane (@Seanylane) reported

    Having trouble with @giffgaff not getting any data but coming up as I am using it. Asked to change my sim. Who has two SIM cards. Only drug dealers got that ****

  • lee_a_9320 Lee A (@lee_a_9320) reported

    GiffGaff is the network of the jobless. Tell me I’m lying go on.

  • featherytravels Katie Featherstone (Scotland/Iceland) (@featherytravels) reported

    Hi @giffgaff, I generally think you are great, but surprise enforcing 2 stage authentication to log-in to your website, which requires receiving an email, is not smart. You need data to get to your emails, and an email to top-up your data! This will cause people problems.

  • JonnyHyde14 Jonny Hyde (@JonnyHyde14) reported

    @giffgaff what is going down, no service or internet working

  • X_eLle_S Elle Linton | Fitness Pro & Blogger (@X_eLle_S) reported

    @Yorksims @giffgaff Thanks, I've tried to switch that off and it says failed. I think I've tried 1919 but will try again just incase. Literally spent the whole of my evening trying to figure it out (and yup I got a samsung) when I've googled everywhere says its a network issue.

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

    @timmorgan Hi Tim. Oh dear, that's strange. Facebook wouldn't be blocked on our network. Is this the only website that you're unable to access? - giffgaff Emer.

  • bfpix Bruce Fitzgerald Photography (@bfpix) reported

    Please get a move-on and fix the mast @giffgaff and @TheO2 network and I'm trying to run a business here! We've had no phone signal for over a week now at HX63ED. While you're at it, improve what was there to a better all-round signal. Thank you
