  • ProfKurtMills Kurt Mills (@ProfKurtMills) reported

    @giffgaff My wife’s recurring goodybag failed. Error message says bank declined payment, but bank confirms card is fine and did not decline. Not possible to call (very bad customer service) and agent response takes 24hrs. Meanwhile, my wife cannot use her phone.

    Joined @giffgaff on 1st November , it’s now 19th November and still don’t have a signal , most days it’s non existent, wish I had stayed with @ThreeUK now , giff gaff tells me a mast is broken but it seems like it’s going to never be fixed as it’s been broken since I joined

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

    @ProfKurtMills Oh dear, Kurt. Please can you check and make sure that the card has not expired, as this would cause the recurring payment to fail - giffgaff Jade

    @giffgaff looking to join giffgaff do I need to tell my old network I wish to leave or do I just request a pac code?

    @giffgaff Hi Elmer, I've logged a ticket but wondered if its a known issue. I can deal with a double top up, just as long as both payments hit my account. Only one showing, even though there's two order transactions. Very odd!

    In a world of poor customer service, one company that constantly overdelivers is @giffgaff Tremendous value for money and their stuff “just works”. One ad-hoc month of goodybag data at £20 for 80GB has meant non-stop Netflix and TV during > 1 week hospital stay. Fantastic value.

    @tashtashanat Listen after my first contract I never again did one. Absolute waste of money, I straight buy out now and use giffgaff

    @giffgaff Yea I've done that it says no coverage yet the bloke sat next to me on O2 has a full 5G signal?

  • Yousif69397374 Yousif (@Yousif69397374) reported

    I feel angry from @giffgaff. I do not receive adequate Internet. The fact I cannot receive any Internet some of the times. I complained about it and the giffgaff told me one of their transmitters broke down. I must compensate because this is not my problem. My name is hussa50155
