    @giffgaff Hi Jeanette, still no good. I’ve deleted the app and downloaded it again but not working. My wife’s app is saying the same thing but everything else on our phones works.

    @Whatkatiedidne2 Hi Sian. What issue are you having when trying to remove the SIM from your phone? - giffgaff Hannah

  • Whatkatiedidne2 Sian Kate (@Whatkatiedidne2) reported

    @giffgaff I just can’t do it. I’m in my 50s lol and poor grip. I’m best with a new sim please. I don’t want to break the phone. Thank you :)

    @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 😠

    @StunnerCurves Hi there. It can take up to 24 hours from activation for your service to be fully up and running. During this time we recommend that you reboot your phone off and on again a few times, to help speed this up - giffgaff Jade

    @Erasmo2058 We're not aware of any problems with the app Erasmo. Are you or your wife able to log in using a browser? Please try logging in on the app using data rather than Wi-Fi if it's available. - giffgaff Jeanette

    @defscoupss That's odd, Vero. Please can you clear your cache, cookies and web history then try this again. Please also try using a different browser or device, as this should help - giffgaff Jade

  • CrispHarriet Harriet Crisp (@CrispHarriet) reported

    Hi my phone is displaying no service despite there being service on another Giffgaff phone. I can’t log in to my account to see if there’s a problem there as I’ve forgotten my password and the reset link isn’t coming through to my email. Can you help? @giffgaff

    @monster80720649 We're very sorry to hear this. Please can you provide your full UK postcode via DM, so we can check for issues in the area - giffgaff Jade

    @layanglicana @davesumnersmith My mobile costs me £20 monthly though I can change it down or not pay even if I'm not using it. Unlimited calls, messages and more internet than I can use 100+gig so internet calling as well - free to other countries. giffgaff
