  • mikeyoungUK Cllr Mike Young (@mikeyoungUK) reported from Elwick, England

    @giffgaff I got a payg sim for my spare phone yesterday and spent 30 quid on credit so I can use it as a data tethering device for my laptop at home. Live in a rural area so no fibre broadband option. Sadly, there is zero 4G signal. I thought all networks had this sorted?!

  • MeInSunderland #ImMe | #SAFC | 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 (@MeInSunderland) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    🚨 Never buy a refurbished phone from @giffgaff they send you ducked phones then blame you for damaging it

  • MeInSunderland #ImMe | #SAFC | 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 (@MeInSunderland) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @1BenBaller @giffgaff It’s on its way back but why annoyed me was that @giffgaff didn’t seem to care. I was told to contact apple support. Erm no. If I buy a phone then I expect it to work

  • nathanlawsn Nathan Lawson (@nathanlawsn) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @adamconder @OllieBrkr @giffgaff I’ve experienced that occasionally on Three also, but I found that restarting my iPhone fixes the problem, so I’m beginning to think it’s actually an iOS issue rather than a problem with the network.

  • neil91265 neil simpson (@neil91265) reported from Bishop Auckland, England

    @giffgaff you down trying to buy a goody bag

  • ScooterRiderFMX 🏳️‍🌈 #ImMeWhoAreYou 🏳️‍🌈 (@ScooterRiderFMX) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Data still not working. I’ll be glad when I ditch @giffgaff

  • SixCylinderDean Dean (@SixCylinderDean) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Hey @giffgaff can you get onto O2 about the mobile signal in Sunderland City Centre, it’s almost impossible to even load twitter.

  • mrjulesdrop mrjulesdrop (@mrjulesdrop) reported

    I got a 5g sim for my phone with my network ( Giffgaff excellent #giffgaff @giffgaff ) has the best pick up of any network in my area of Norfolk (@vodafone being worst!) But no network has #5G here out in sticks yet. So can't be bothered to change over yet! It's just a pain todo

  • JohnStumbles John Stumbles (@JohnStumbles) reported

    Why are mobile phone companies such a PITA? I thought @giffgaff were the exception but I've just spent several hours I'll never see again trying to set up my partner's own phone with them after we'd already put her younger child on it. >>

  • msglug 𝕘𝕝𝕦𝕘 🇪🇺🇬🇮 (@msglug) reported

    @giffgaff The point is that the roaming agreement works with only *some* networks in Luxembourg but not Post. It definitely doesn't work with Post. Every time I come, maybe 8 times a year, I have the same issue. Something to pass on to someone who can query it

  • AnitaShellabear Anita Shellabear (@AnitaShellabear) reported

    @giffgaff It’s not good enough it’s not my fault so why should I have to wait, your website is the issue would you like to be left without your phone? Im really annoyed

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

    @SephBentos Hi Seph. We're so sorry to hear that. Please send us a DM, and we can help you out with this. - giffgaff Emer.

  • Caolannkearney Caolán Kearney (@Caolannkearney) reported

    @giffgaff She hasn't because it can take as long as 24 hours and she is going down there in the next half hour so was seeing if I could get a quick answer!

  • msglug 𝕘𝕝𝕦𝕘 🇪🇺🇬🇮 (@msglug) reported

    @giffgaff I switched to a different network but choosing manually is a problem if you fly to another country that doesn't have the network you selected - it goes into spasm. Given that it's a persistent problem though, it isn't a troubleshooting issue. Does GiffGaff not have an agreement?
