  • trrhodes Ross Rhodes (@trrhodes) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff Hi Hannah, thanks for the prompt reply. This seems to be a persistent problem near a signal tower, so I suspect that may be the cause of the problem? May your team investigate further please?

  • jammach Gavin BrrrIan Barrie 🏳️‍🌈🐕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👬🎮 (@jammach) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @LeftLost_Pltcs Might want to check coverage maps on a couple of providers to prevent disappointment. GiffGaff run on the O2 network, as does Tesco mobile.

  • ashpryce Ash Pryce (@ashpryce) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

  • AndruRomanowski Andrés Romanowski (@AndruRomanowski) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff Thank you Kyle. I just contacted an agent to see if they can help.

  • clouddancefest Cloud Dance Festival (@clouddancefest) reported from Portobello, Scotland

    @giffgaff So, your goodybags don’t cover any phone calls or texts - including phone calls to landline numbers (0131) or texts to other Giffgaff users. How much do users have to bribe GG for even a vaguely functional service, and what compensation does GG give failed customers?

  • DRZO73 David Ogilvie (@DRZO73) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Awww, no @giffgaff!!! I hate the new voicemail guy. Terrible annoying voice and I just want the friendly, cheery Geordie announcer guy back or I'm going to have to leave you. #bringbackgeordiegiffgaff

  • paulforsyth7867 Paul Forsyth (@paulforsyth7867) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Rpearson081 @CEOemail @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @Three_Is_Broken @EE @giffgaff As soon as my contract is up with Three, I'm moving to another service provider. Only get poor service and coverage from Three and has got worse recently. Not wasting money any longer on this appalling company who provide you with nothing.

    @2milionmilebike @giffgaff Hi marmalade what's the problem with it?

  • T_C_Sheep The Clandestine Sheep (@T_C_Sheep) reported

    @giffgaff So they answered with a generic copy and paste answer. Maybe time for a new network

  • hnnhbe han :) (@hnnhbe) reported

    honestly so stupid that giffgaff doesn’t get o2 priority even though it’s under o2

  • MrJohnHumphreys John Humphreys (@MrJohnHumphreys) reported from Littlebourne, England

    @catherine_mayer I managed one month with EE (via UW) before leaving. Terrible signal - like it was 2001 again - both in town and the countryside. Went back to O2 via Giffgaff, not probs at all now.

  • KyahMusic Kyah_Music (@KyahMusic) reported

    Thinking of replacing my @giffgaff sim card iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S22 from your online store. What I need to know is whether the S22 has ironed out the GG (O2) network issues that Galaxy S8 had?

  • joesontv Carl Pearce (@joesontv) reported

    @giffgaff Is anyone having network issues in the UK? unable to make calls?

  • storeyarmer Julian B (@storeyarmer) reported

    @giffgaff Hi Jade, ive done that already no issues locally. :(

  • StevoBladeCoD iBladey (@StevoBladeCoD) reported

    @giffgaff I have the worst 4G signal ever. It’s just O2 I think . They cannot be bothered where I live so am leaving for EE on 16th . Sorry but I was told it would get fixed and it never has .

  • T_C_Sheep The Clandestine Sheep (@T_C_Sheep) reported

    Is there a problem with @giffgaff this morning? I haven't been able to connect to the network at all. No data. No phone. Tried rebooting, airplane mode, mobile data off and on and reseating the SIM card. No change. This is not good.

    @amandafclark Okay, no problem. Take care. - giffgaff Tasbiya
