  • 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

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

    @giffgaff having data connection problems in Edinburgh, been having trouble the past few days.

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

    @brightdome Feedback from my mother who was seeing Paradise Lost tonight - she was at table 17, but had no phone signal to scan the bar code and order drinks (she’s with Giffgaff). She absolutely loved the show, and all the attention to detail to ensure safety.

  • 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?

  • JamieGuthrie_ Jamie W Guthrie 🏳️‍🌈 (@JamieGuthrie_) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff hi I have been a loyal customer for years can you send me some free giffgaff stationary xxxxx

  • Noosh1977 Anouska Curzon (@Noosh1977) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff Unfortunately none of the questions in the support function relate to my problem. Can you help?

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • SolCuthbertson Solomon 🇧🇬🇩🇰🇫🇷🇷🇺🇧🇪🇺🇦 (@SolCuthbertson) 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.

  • Noosh1977 Anouska Curzon (@Noosh1977) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @giffgaff when I send texts it appears as another number to the recipient - can you help?

  • ItsCallumtomz Callum (@ItsCallumtomz) reported

    @giffgaff But then why is there a £20 a month goodybag for 100GB? It seems like nothing is in order and once again Ive slowed on data. It’s going to be the same f perform a sim swap and for the best part of 2 days I’ll get a faster service. It’s all wrong in the way things are handled.

  • bringonthebeer_ Mıchæl ▪ ᴮᴿᴵᴺᴳᴏɴᵀᴴᴱʙᴇᴇʀ (@bringonthebeer_) reported

    @callmelamb You may know this already, but bear in mind any mobile network that isnt O2, EE or Vodafone will be a "virtual" network that piggybacks on one of the main three. Sky, like GiffGaff, uses O2, so if it's coverage you're after, you may find better options elsewhere

  • konrkonrkonr konr🌱 (@konrkonrkonr) reported

    My internet wins again and starts lagging like crazy the second Danny finishes his 1st. .@giffgaff your network sucks ***.

  • JackVTaylor Jack Taylor (@JackVTaylor) reported

    @Tony_Ryan1892 @giffgaff Same issue in Bolton and Manchester. Ive been told by them to turn my connection to O2 on and off but it hasn't worked. With so many people having the issue you as seen on twitter you would think they realise it's on their end not ours

  • JimJamming James (@JimJamming) reported

    @giffgaff hi is there a reason why I'm getting next to no service even when it says I've got full 4G? Doesn't seem to matter where I am! Certain tasks are almost impossible. Won't load videos. Or allow me to do a speed test. Websites take ages to load.

  • GsjrR84 g R84 (@GsjrR84) reported

    @giffgaff Signal strength has been terrible lately. Time to switch!

  • Tony_Ryan1892 Tony_R 🇵🇸 (@Tony_Ryan1892) reported

    @giffgaff why is there soo many Deadspots around Liverpool for signal. Pls fix soon, feel like I'm losing my mind waiting for stuff to load

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

    @Tony_Ryan1892 If you are still having issues after our agents response we would recommend getting back in touch with them through your case, to see if there is anything else they can advise, Tony - giffgaff Jade

  • Ergun_Kazali Ergun Kazali (@Ergun_Kazali) reported

    @shirleyjones999 @giffgaff No, they piggyback on O2’s network.
