  • DRZO73 David Ogilvie (@DRZO73) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Awww, no @giffgaff!!! I hate the new voicemail guy. Terrible annoying voice and I just want the friendly, cheery Geordie announcer guy back or I'm going to have to leave you. #bringbackgeordiegiffgaff

    @brightdome Feedback from my mother who was seeing Paradise Lost tonight - she was at table 17, but had no phone signal to scan the bar code and order drinks (she’s with Giffgaff). She absolutely loved the show, and all the attention to detail to ensure safety.

  • AndruRomanowski Andrés Romanowski (@AndruRomanowski) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff Thank you Kyle. I just contacted an agent to see if they can help.

  • paulforsyth7867 Paul Forsyth (@paulforsyth7867) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Rpearson081 @CEOemail @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @Three_Is_Broken @EE @giffgaff As soon as my contract is up with Three, I'm moving to another service provider. Only get poor service and coverage from Three and has got worse recently. Not wasting money any longer on this appalling company who provide you with nothing.

  • trrhodes Ross Rhodes (@trrhodes) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff Hi Hannah, thanks for the prompt reply. This seems to be a persistent problem near a signal tower, so I suspect that may be the cause of the problem? May your team investigate further please?

  • JamieGuthrie_ Jamie W Guthrie 🏳️‍🌈 (@JamieGuthrie_) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff hi I have been a loyal customer for years can you send me some free giffgaff stationary xxxxx

  • Noosh1977 Anouska Curzon (@Noosh1977) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff when I send texts it appears as another number to the recipient - can you help?

  • clouddancefest Cloud Dance Festival (@clouddancefest) reported from Portobello, Scotland

    @giffgaff So, your goodybags don’t cover any phone calls or texts - including phone calls to landline numbers (0131) or texts to other Giffgaff users. How much do users have to bribe GG for even a vaguely functional service, and what compensation does GG give failed customers?

    @KirstyRutterUK That's odd, Kirsty. Please can you clear your cache, cookies and web history then try this again. Please also try using a different browser or device, as this should help - giffgaff Jade

  • jules20thC JillB🇺🇦 (@jules20thC) reported

    @giffgaff Started a goody bag with you yesterday but have had the sim activated in the phone over 24 hrs yet phone won’t recognise it. Could sim be faulty or is the phone the issue? Bought it from you and it works with previous sim (from Three).

  • Frankel001 Neil (@Frankel001) reported

    @original_jaj @ramonagusta @NicholasTyrone Wow Justin coming on here and moaning about lack of free roaming. It's Iike you want to pay the extra so you can complain on here. I'm paying £8 a month on Giffgaff unlimited calls and texts and 3gb of data. More data available for slightly more. Its cheap. Like you are an idiot.

  • clafipam Fiorella Parra-Mujica (@clafipam) reported

    @giffgaff Hi! Yes, that's what I've done but the agents can't find a solution to my problem. I can't access my email/bank account because it has an OTP through the phone. I have just sent a new request to fix the problem.

  • KirstyRutterUK Kirsty (@KirstyRutterUK) reported

    @giffgaff Anyone else having issues logging in to @giffgaff ??

  • clafipam Fiorella Parra-Mujica (@clafipam) reported

    I can't access my email or bank account because it's all veryfied through the phone via OTPs. But I don't have a chip! Please, @giffgaff could you please propose a solution to my problem?

  • EnyaNTFC Eithne 🇺🇦 🌻 (@EnyaNTFC) reported

    @giffgaff I’ve reset my password four times but I still can’t login to my account. My password is NOT incorrect. What is going on? I’ve run out of data but can’t buy a new goodybag as you’re messing about.

  • gibby26 Gibbo (@gibby26) reported

    @giffgaff It's only frustrating, I'm unable to do my job while my phone is out of action. 'Not registered on the network' since this morning.
