  • 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.

  • 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?

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

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

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • jordanrevell Jordan Revell (@jordanrevell) reported from Camden Town, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I've had internet dropouts for the past 3-4 days, up to 4 times per day, plus dropouts often in the last year. It nearly jeopardized my life changing doctors appointment held over zoom today, often times my giffgaff 4g mobile data is faster, I need a solution.

  • SuzieStewart Suzanna Stewart (@SuzieStewart) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @giffgaff hi, tried to renew password online but the link you send keeps saying it’s already been used when it hasn’t. Need to renew bundle asap but can’t help please

  • sofiloco Sofi Summers (@sofiloco) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff hi Giff Gaff 👋🏼 my husband is having problems with his data - it’s not working at all. We’re in N1 London. Is it down?

  • fchaps68 Fiona Chapman**••..** (@fchaps68) reported from Brentwood, England

    @SophieEB @giffgaff @ThreeUK Giffgaff is great and when u go abroad I just buy a local sim and you still use your UK number on wats app. So much cheaper!Obviously only works if your phone is not locked to a particular network tho! X

  • 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.

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

  • GracialNation gracialnation (@GracialNation) reported from Hackney, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • DougzyA Dougzy, a bit like Banksy but with a D yet zy. 😉 (@DougzyA) reported

    Giffgaff network a dehumanising customer services. If you've a major issue you will never be able to talk to a human being to walk you through it. Cold & heartless robotic customer services can't even leave a number to ring you back, the dehumanising aspect, if not techy savvy.

  • david_hollas ᗪᗩᐯIᗪ ᕼᗝᒪᒪᗩᔕ 💙🌹♿✊💚 (@david_hollas) reported

    @BenjyNtheMonkey I've used Giffgaff for many years, they use O2 network so maybe the way to go would be check various network coverage in your area.

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

    @RJ_the_man87 We do understand that this would be very stressful for you. Please rest assured that we're working hard to resolve the issues with the mast, and based on the information you have shared with us we can see that the mast is estimated to be fixed on the 9th of June - giffgaff Jade

  • monaghp Paul Monaghan (@monaghp) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks for the prompt reply. I had hoped that as a Virtual Network Operstor using O2’s platform you might have an offering.

  • Chris72green Christine Green (@Chris72green) reported

    4th day with no giffgaff, Tesco, Vodaphone and EE mobile signal in SN15. Can get 4G and make and receive calls if away from home - so it is not a SIM issue. Talking with giffgaff agent, and no help as saying may be in a black spot or congestion - never happened before.

  • 1BenBaller Ben Baller (@1BenBaller) reported

    @emmagabarda @giffgaff Hopefully your number has transferred over now, but it's always worth restarting your phone periodically which can help complete the process.

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

    @selinnotcelinee This would normally mean that your phone isn't reading the SIM so it would either be an issue with the SIM card, or phone. However, we can also check the account to ensure everything is as it should be. Have you been in touch with our agents through your account? - giffgaff Emer.

  • danhodgett Dan Hodgett (@danhodgett) reported

    Hey @giffgaff, I organised a return of a phone i bought a couple of weeks ago this morning via your site, the message said that I would recieve returns info via email but I haven't had anything through, are you able to help?

  • rgn_007 Lynne Hayward (@rgn_007) reported

    @giffgaff I've left two agent help requests but I just get an error and a blank reference number. None of the community members have left any logical answer. How else can I get in touch?

  • ladkiloon Ri रि (@ladkiloon) reported

    @giffgaff No I tried the speak to a giffgaff agent but couldn’t find the right option to raise this issue
