    @catherine_mayer I managed one month with EE (via UW) before leaving. Terrible signal - like it was 2001 again - both in town and the countryside. Went back to O2 via Giffgaff, not probs at all now.

    @giffgaff @O2 would somebody like to sort out the transmitter strength that covers PR7 before I take my custom to another network, I’ve moved to within 0.5km of one of the Uk’s busiest motorway service areas & have one bar or it drops to 3G 😡 Ridiculous & slow!! .

    @Rania06396702 We're so sorry to hear that didn't help, Rania. We are investigating intermittent log in issues with the app, so hopefully this will be resolved soon. We would recommend that you keep trying, but in the meantime, you should be able to log in on the website. - giffgaff Emer.

    Wow, thanks @giffgaff - you emailed saying my phone repair is out of warranty - no details given - & quoted £246 to repair it. Adding insult to injury, saying I'll be charged £15 to send it back unrepaired. Phone cost me £199 and I've only had it a couple of months! So bad.😡

    @giffgaff is the signal down today or something? Paying for unlimited data and hardly got anything working.

  • Dicko240 Arran Dickinson (@Dicko240) reported

    @giffgaff send me a faulty phone then have the cheek to try and charge me to fix it!! #gettingnowhere #terribleservice

    @_Izzers That's no problem, Izzy. Take care - giffgaff Jade

  • _Izzers Izzy (@_Izzers) reported

    @giffgaff I am being driven INSANE by your online diagnostic service. The microphone on my newly purchased phone does not work properly and I would like to return it for a replacement but cannot manage to do this online.

    @giffgaff I have an issue receiving text messages this morning. Any known issues on you network?

  • SephBentos Theoretically Seph Bentõs 🎸🎶 (@SephBentos) reported

    @LloydsBank Ok, I tried to circumvent the issue by logging on via a desktop computer and adding my parent’s landline as an alternative number but this time it said it would text me rather than call me. The text never came through. Giffgaff can’t block texts, so it’s definitely a Lloyds fault
