  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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 ordered the Huawei P30 yesterday and you guys have sent me the P30 Pro.. My moral compass feels bad for accepting this, please advise :)

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @teamIPSE Without a doubt! And phone signal! It is appalling how bad the signal is in parts of the UK outside of London! I am 4 minutes from the Cardiff city centre with no signal! #howareyoumeanttorunabusiness @o2networks @O2 @giffgaff

    Well, for some reason my phone didn't go off yesterday - and the signal was down to H+ instead of the usual 4G... was this a @giffgaff or @O2 problem in Thanet?

  • PhoebsBo Phoebe (@PhoebsBo) reported

    @AmandaB55744931 I’m with Giffgaff, who use O2's network. I wonder if there’s a method to provide feedback. Can’t have them thinking their test was a success!

  • clairegled Claire Gledhill (@clairegled) reported

    @giffgaff just received a second emergency alert this morning? Not to brag but…

  • 1benballer Ben Baller (@1benballer) reported

    @menix1337 @giffgaff Hi Jesper, this is not a giffgaff issue. Many others did not receive this.

  • AnnaJoe2022 AnnaJoe (@AnnaJoe2022) reported

    @mrdanwalker Nothing, no alert received, 4G phone, switched on, 02 network (GiffGaff)

  • RBIllustration Bex ✨ (@RBIllustration) reported

    @g0g0mi I got it and I'm on Giffgaff, my mum who is on EE didn't get it and neither did one of my friends but idk what network she's on. It seems to be very inconsistent

  • 1benballer Ben Baller (@1benballer) reported

    @Grandpa_Pete @WhichUK @giffgaff Hi Peter, this is not a giffgaff issue. Many others did not receive this.

  • DaveSThompson David Thompson (@DaveSThompson) reported from Corbridge, England

    Hello, you lovely @giffgaff people. I know I'm not alone in not having received the #emergencyalert message on my phone, however my wife next to me did on her Giffgaff Android mobile; presumably the signal is from the same mast? It's probably a Gov't ****-up as usual... Hey ho.

  • lanlith Mark Bailey (@lanlith) reported

    @PaulOBrien O2 got it and Plusnet. Giffgaff not and not 3 here! Half my family wiped out in a real emergency 😝

  • industrialteg T Roberts 💙 😷 (@industrialteg) reported

    @CentralBylines Husband did (including the alarm noise) I didn't, so it was 50:50 in our house. I was definitely on 4G. I'm with Giffgaff who use O2s network (I think?)
