    @O2 I’m with GiffGaff. Usually no issues with Mesia messages in any direction, but when it happens, I’m curious about this type of message. It says here’s your message, but there’s no link or attachment.

  • BartBoski Bartek 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇵🇱 (@BartBoski) reported from Camberwell, England

    Hey @Ofcom we have been having issues with our mobile number that’s with @giffgaff no calls/texts from EE are coming through! (pretty basic part of service) Reported to @giffgaff beginning of August - still not resolved. (Suspect it’s been going on for much longer) can you help?

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • jetsettersw Alvin (@jetsettersw) reported from Lambeth, England

    @giffgaff @dhlexpressuk You both have an absolute DOG SHIT of a service

  • catskidschaos Karen Reekie (@catskidschaos) reported from Richmond, England

    If you have to clear your cache and log out then log back in but you can’t click on an e mail link and have to go via a browser to access a service on a website it’s a bit crap. Looks at @giffgaff and mutters about giving up and not bothering to continue with the thing I need...

  • Ryanclairmont 🅡🅨🅐🅝 (@Ryanclairmont) reported from Ilford, England

    Really not good enough, since Thursday got a goodybag sim for my daughter & it's still not working till now,you should haul all sales of sims till the issues are fix. #ofcom #cisas #ombudsmanservice #giffgaff

  • 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?

  • jetsettersw Alvin (@jetsettersw) reported from Lambeth, England

    @giffgaff and @DHLUSHelp your delivery service is dog shit! Will be using @amazon from now on 👋🏾

  • Loucathwil ☃️🎄🦌loucathwil🧵✂️🧸 (@Loucathwil) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    R.e. the @giffgaff phone app, it NEVER remembers my password, and neither do I, as I'm always forced to add capital letters and other details I will never remember. Please make your services more accessible to those of us with neurological handicaps xx #neurodiversesquad

    "Try your GiffGaff SIM in another unlocked phone to rule out bla bla issue". If I had another phone in unlocked and working condition I'd be using it as my actual phone and I wouldn't be in this mess!

  • orcadianabroad Clazz || An Orcadian Abroad (@orcadianabroad) reported

    @WilliamNB @vodafone @EE I don't know where abouts you are, but if that's 3 companies you've had issues with, are you sure it's not your phone playing up?? I've never had issues with Vodafone or giffgaff (can't speak for EE) but Vodafone isn't cheap hence moving to gg. Hope you get it sorted anyway!
