    Okay, so it’s not just O2. People on other networks are having issues too O2, Three, Vodafone, EE, Giffgaff with most the issues BT, Tesco Mobile & Virgin Media with a few

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

  • 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)

  • Benjakev jason k (@Benjakev) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PoliceConsumer @giffgaff Been on giffgaff since they launched, cheapest and most reliable network I’ve ever used

  • 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

  • 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

  • nealdcruz Neal D'Cruz (@nealdcruz) reported from Bromley, England

    @giffgaff hi, need to cancel my account but cannot log in. Can someone assist. Thx

  • 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

  • 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...

  • kiers__ Unotheactivist (@kiers__) reported from Islington, England

    @RafaFerdinand1 @MrSir____ @Sahveeyo @_euanito Sir you connected to GiffGaff so doh try that shit

  • 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.

  • PaulGrayburn PG tweets (@PaulGrayburn) reported from Romford, England

    @DanJay946 @EE @ThreeUK @giffgaff You know they use the O2 network. You’d get a better performance with them instead of giffgaff.

  • 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

  • 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 🤬😤

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

  • monster80720649 monster (@monster80720649) reported

    @giffgaff hi I’m having issues with incoming calls and sometimes my texts or calls aren’t working outward to it silly so can you fix it or what?

  • darwin_got_this 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿✊🏼✊🏾Pragmatist📸🎨🇬🇧 (@darwin_got_this) reported

    @paulale01206488 I'm getting 3 or 4 a day! I keep reporting to O2 as they own the network Giffgaff use. I'm getting fed up of it 😠

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

    @em_doapsi We're very sorry to hear this, Em. Please can you provide your full UK postcode. So we can check for issues in the area - giffgaff Jade

  • hattiecooke Hattie Cooke (@hattiecooke) reported

    Dear @giffgaff I've just bought a referbed iPhone from you that doesn't get signal. So I checked the IMEI and it's blacklisted - which means this phone has been lost/stolen. Can you contact me so we can resolve the issue? PS - selling stolen phones isn't a good look.

  • trrhodes Ross Rhodes (@trrhodes) reported

    @giffgaff Phone line keeps cutting off in the Edinburgh Meadowbank area, even though I allegedly have full bars of signal. Anyone else reported issues?

  • xxHarleyQueen Harley Queen (@xxHarleyQueen) reported

    @giffgaff can you sort something out on your app so I just stay logged in? I just want to get some credit, not spend an hour messing around because I can't remember my password. While you're at it, can you fix the "I forgot my password" because I've been waiting an hour now...

  • Unmanzigo james (@Unmanzigo) reported

    @hattiecooke @giffgaff Refurb obviously doesn`t include switching it on , what a rubbish service.

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

    @Unsalted_Rhino That's strange. Are you experiencing this issue when you try to log in, or before attempting to log in? If after you try to log in, please use your mobile number instead of your membername and vice versa. Also attempt to reset your password. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • Sparky15756 Sparky Reddookami (@Sparky15756) reported

    @giffgaff I've just had an email saying that I've ordered a sim card from you but I've never used your service before, or even visited your website? Any possibility to check what address it's being sent to from my email?

  • TooMuchManga TooMuchManga (@TooMuchManga) reported

    @_sh1opan Giffgaff is probably the cheapest and you don't need a contract. But check signal with local residents. Probably still Ikea Argos/Curries/Amazon... I guess wherever really. As the generic brands See above for washing machine. The DFS Sale still going STRONG
