  • 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

  • arigork Ari Gork (@arigork) reported from Camden Town, England

    Family visiting needed a local sim. Got @giffgaff prepaid & activation was simple & fast. Catch is you need to get a voucher or credit/debit card to load selected bundle as store could not help and needed browser access to activate sim and load bundle. Otherwise 5 stars :)

  • staylowkae baby wasteman. (@staylowkae) reported from London, England

    giffgaff finally back to more data less money but ofc its slow now 😐

  • richardlloydact Richard Anthony Lloyd (@richardlloydact) reported from Dartford, England

    @giffgaff Too late. As I work away I can’t afford to think I maybe won’t speak to my family when I need to. I am cancelling. If you could furnish me with your member service email please; I can’t seem to find that on your website. Thanks.

  • endaguinan Enda Guinan (@endaguinan) reported from Islington, England

    @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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • TheGaffaSM Prince Vegeta (@TheGaffaSM) reported from Merton, England

    Never GiffGaff💥

  • Agathi0usssss Agathe (@Agathi0usssss) reported from Hackney, England

    Am I the only one having Data issue with @giffgaff ! Every time it says my 3G is on but it doesn’t work at all 😡😡

  • LashanStuff Lashan (@LashanStuff) reported from Camberwell, England

    @giffgaff There wasn't, the network just slows down to a crawl/stops functioning from congestion levels that are literally a daily occurrence there

  • uncoolbob Bob MacCallum (@uncoolbob) reported from London, England

    No signal, phone or data here @giffgaff

  • richardlloydact Richard Anthony Lloyd (@richardlloydact) reported from Dartford, England

    @giffgaff have just switched to you, no link to keepnold number sent, tried to log into an agent and got access denied. Away from home and no one can get in touch. Please help ASAP!

  • 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 🙂

  • 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.

  • Agathi0usssss Agathe (@Agathi0usssss) reported from Poplar, England

    @giffgaff It’s ain’t working since yesterday afternoon I have tried to disconnect and reconnect it ain’t working and the network seems to be fine where I am right now 😡 I’m paying £25 to have unlimited and right now it isn’t!

  • 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)

  • Mr_Billy_Man Mr Billy Man (@Mr_Billy_Man) reported

    @giffgaff Just moved home from abroad, got a GiffGaff SIM paid £20 yesterday ready for a drive up to Scotland today. It’s still got no signal… :( Now I have to go on a road trip without any calls/texts/data. Any resolve? 🥺 #giffgaff #help

  • pollygunning Pollyanna Gunning (@pollygunning) reported

    @giffgaff Can you also explain why the service restoration will 'vary across members'? Why is this not being done in chronological order? I see from twitter and your forums that many customers are only waiting 2-3 days. Mine has been out for 11!

  • ChredgarUpdates Christaldinho (@ChredgarUpdates) reported

    @RosieisaHolt Get a giffgaff data pack, I always had good signal in Edinburgh on giffgaff and the data is cheap

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

    @jchannon Ensure any texts you're receiving are from DPD themselves, and not from a mobile number showing a DPD link. As long as you are able to see the phone is due to arrive today, you should have no issues receiving both today. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • Baz92037485 Baz (@Baz92037485) reported

    @giffgaff I've checked myself and no issues today or yesterday

  • Blade_CoDMobile StevoBlade (@Blade_CoDMobile) reported

    @giffgaff I’m on iPhone 11 and never had this issue before. I’ll try those things thanks 🙏

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

    @Happy_kiddo It should work to transfer the number Nidhi, but we just need to advise that there may be complications as you won't be connected to the giffgaff network. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • Colin_J_Hayes Colin Hayes (@Colin_J_Hayes) reported

    @giffgaff I have a problem with my voice messages. When I call VM it tells me to enter a PIN to change my PIN, even though I didn't enter a PIN to begin with.

  • pollygunning Pollyanna Gunning (@pollygunning) reported

    @giffgaff During this 11 day period my Mum spent a week in hospital, I am her next of kin. Thank god my phone was working on the night I had to call the ambulance. It added so much stress to a horrible situation trying to provide the help she needs with no phone.

  • Baz92037485 Baz (@Baz92037485) reported

    @Lucyjaynexoox @giffgaff Had the same for about 2 weeks, many others on different networks also saying the same. Has it been slowed down for 5g, like they did with 3g?
