    @giffgaff trying to activate a sim for my mum, payment isn't being accepted. Can you please help

  • RitaAdam95 Adam Rita St. (@RitaAdam95) reported from Barnet, England

    Technical problem shouldn’t be an excuse for late submissions, if WiFi failed at your house your personal hotspot can be used as wifi on your laptop (pay giffgaff £25 per month you have unlimited data don’t worry) - there’s always a way to submit your work on time, no excuses 🙂

  • till_the_wheels 𝕵𝖚𝖌𝖘 (@till_the_wheels) reported from London, England

    @O2 @Joegreaney Hi I'd just like to add that this is a problem for everyone on 02 and giffgaff in that area and it's because a mast in hither green has been down for 2 years and these crooks hate you enough to ignore it.

  • Mr_MartinCalder Mr Martin Calder (@Mr_MartinCalder) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @EE Giffgaff has unlimited everything for £35 and even that is very expensive and crazy for the price in the current day’s we are living networks need to help their customers

  • AkpaluGeorge George Akpalu (@AkpaluGeorge) reported from London, England

    Giffgaff is so slow and keeps breaking

  • EwanJStevenson Ewan Stevenson (@EwanJStevenson) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @giffgaff plz can you help. I am waiting for a refund for a returned phone.

  • suhailpatel Suhail Patel (@suhailpatel) reported from London, England

    @Geek_Manager @jaseemabid @watbe @filipecvarela @ThreeUK @EE @giffgaff Three around Central London has been very spotty for me too (although it’s worse on iPhones than Androids, maybe it’s the iOS baseband on Three’s bands). Vodafone have been my go-to pretty much everywhere. Unfortunately the support is abysmal, guess you can’t have it all.

  • Maliwil RAVEAUD Emmanuel (@Maliwil) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Oh thanks so much, only one solution refund my money back on 5 days, so I don't have a phone for a new week. Thanks @dpd_support for your perfect work ... So know you are going to give me a new phone 🤬😤

  • Love_SE4 @Love_SE4💙 (@Love_SE4) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Do you know what forget I even asked I'm going into town to get a SIM from a phone shop. At least if it goes wrong there are people to help. You lot are useless you don't need my money anymore. You owe me but I doubt very much I will get anything back

  • Muvaharris meg (@Muvaharris) reported from London, England

    I have a very important call and giffgaff decide to go down now? Have no signal whatsoever! Always having problems! Absolute joke @giffgaff

  • macqueendan Daniel MacQueen (@macqueendan) reported from Tottenham, England

    @giffgaff I keep running out of credit on my monthly pay as you go plan. Auto top up was enabled leading to x2 charges now my account has run out for the third time. Wifi is turned on, HELP please

  • EdoreFaine Cr£am (@EdoreFaine) reported from London, England

    How comes everyone with #giffgaff never answer the #phone #London #voicemail 🤨

  • LauraSummersNow Laura Summers (@LauraSummersNow) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Hi Giffgaff! Something has gone wrong in North Greenwich with your network. Calls keep cutting out here. We’re all going to change network (unless this is just about to fix!) - it’s my husband and I (on Giffgaff) plus a neighbour on Sky (also 02)

  • TronalddumpUS Tronald Dump. (@TronalddumpUS) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff your network in #blackheath is atrocious. I get better signal sitting on a beach in Botswana, what's up with that?

  • DrAaronBraddy Dr Aaron Braddy-Green (@DrAaronBraddy) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @PhilSheaS @lungsatwork I got a crappy phone with a £5 a month GiffGaff sim for a job I recently did with non-resident on call...100% worth it - switched off when not at work, never had to give randoms at other hosps my personal No & no dodgy calls OOH or when not at work! Definitely do this @PhilSheaS

  • MVautrin Angela M Sturniolo (@MVautrin) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @Claytoncast @ThreeUKSupport @giffgaff I was in Bologna Italy for most of the month of May and didn't have any problems. Maybe it depends where you are. Anyway good luck.

  • janetuk19 janet leigh (@janetuk19) reported

    @O2 hi, I need to unlock an O2 device but I can't create an O2 account to get onto live chat as I'm a Giffgaff customer so my number isn't recognising. Can someone help unlock a phone if I give you the IMEI number?

  • WarlockGlyndalf Glyn Roberts (@WarlockGlyndalf) reported

    @giffgaff How long after switching will I start getting useable mobile Internet speeds? Switched yesterday but only getting 0.2 mbps up and around the same down. Checked the usual solutions but no luck.

  • chyvalrous chyvalrous (@chyvalrous) reported

    @giffgaff service (both calls and mobile data) are down in RG6

  • pauldevenish Paul 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦🇸🇪 (@pauldevenish) reported

    @giffgaff I'd like to make you aware of a scam which is happening which is being handled on your network, is there a way of reporting this? #scam #scammers

  • WarlockGlyndalf Glyn Roberts (@WarlockGlyndalf) reported

    @giffgaff Hi. After several restarts and network resets speed is still unusable. At around 7 am it was OK but from 8am zilch. Now down 0.1 up just fails. Using Ookla Speedtest.

  • ItsCallumtomz Callum (@ItsCallumtomz) reported

    Thankfully it’s only been 6 hours since @giffgaff went down, seems to be stabilising so I’ll hopefully be able to make a call within an hour or so

  • ItsCallumtomz Callum (@ItsCallumtomz) reported

    @giffgaff Any timescale on when it’s going to be fixed? I don’t fancy waking a few streets away to get service for the next few weeks

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

    @ItsCallumtomz Hi Callum. We completely understand your frustration, however, we can see that a mast nearby isn't working, so this is why you're having issues. You wouldn't need to SIM swap, so don't worry about that. - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @EDI_SarahMQ @giffgaff That's a shame because blocking the phone only bars it from connecting to the network but all of your child's data will still be on it so fingers crossed whoever finds it can't get past your child's pin code and so can't get into the phone.
