  • 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

  • jammach Gavin BrrrIan Barrie 🏳️‍🌈🐕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👬🎮 (@jammach) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @LeftLost_Pltcs Might want to check coverage maps on a couple of providers to prevent disappointment. GiffGaff run on the O2 network, as does Tesco mobile.

    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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?

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

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

  • ashpryce Ash Pryce (@ashpryce) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff having data connection problems in Edinburgh, been having trouble the past few days.

  • 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?

  • SolCuthbertson Solomon 🇧🇬🇩🇰🇫🇷🇷🇺🇧🇪🇺🇦 (@SolCuthbertson) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff Hello. I've just seen from my child's phone that you have said that after data runs out you start charging per MB. The ONLY reason I chose you was because after that data ran out that was it. How ******** has this been changed by you?!
