    @O2 This has always been an issue. We are with giffgaff whom I believe use your signal. I have tried everything. I have even bought a booster, but the reception coming into the booster isn’t enough to even make the booster work. Very frustrating. I have to sit in a window 4 reception

    @giffgaff I understand a mast is down near me, is there a way to find out when we'll get internet back? Our household keep getting no signal and it's been days. Thanks!

  • soxxylady Sharon 🦋 (@soxxylady) reported

  • TekinFM F Tekin (@TekinFM) reported

    @giffgaff Anything works with this company? You kept emailing me with you high security two step verifications never works! Is there anything else you can do to frustrate the enquiring public whilst unlawfully withdrawing money?? Very low!

  • bigwows The Marvellous Muttdini 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🔰💜🤍💚 (@bigwows) reported

    @JamesKennedyUK Zen is terrific for t’internet. @EE twice bricked my phone when abroad despite my buying an add-on for such use because they didn’t like me being on a legacy T-Mobile plan. (Tried a Giffgaff SIM the second time; it was fine so not a phone issue.) Horrifically irresponsible.

  • asaltyplace kay (@asaltyplace) reported

    @giffgaff Still haven’t heard anything back, still stuck here and still have the same issue, i don’t mean to be rude but I need this urgently fixed. Is there any number I can call?
