  • DrJennyVaughan jenny vaughan (@DrJennyVaughan) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @giffgaff sort out your ageist “customer care” approach & call & help my 77 year old mum. You don’t even help me to help her you just send us a barrage of data red tape we can’t deal with. This is how elderly people are marginalised by #giffgaff they just won’t make that call.

  • BRADBFC1889 Brad (@BRADBFC1889) reported from Hounslow, England

    @oliviasolon @davidchow @giffgaff What did you do I’m having this problem still

    @O2 @Joegreaney Hi I'd just like to add that this is a problem for everyone on 02 and giffgaff in that area and it's because a mast in hither green has been down for 2 years and these crooks hate you enough to ignore it.

  • hyrume1 (high-room) (@hyrume1) reported from Hounslow, England

  • Love_SE4 @Love_SE4💙 (@Love_SE4) reported from London, England

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

    @giffgaff Can you help me gain access to my online account as i am trying to reorder a replacement micro SIM card for my number '0797 683 3686'.

  • 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

  • Jonstackpool Russian Warship: ***🌻 (@Jonstackpool) reported

    @VodafoneUK Hey. Masts go down. I understand that. Stuff happens. But what I didn't realise was that your customer service SLAs were below those of GiffGaff. Not an irate user; just a disappointed one.

  • nemopopp nemopop (@nemopopp) reported

    @tescomobile Nothing. Bought phone outright 4yrs ago, £8 pcm with Giffgaff since-not one problem in 4yrs

  • Ergun_Kazali Ergun Kazali (@Ergun_Kazali) reported

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

  • Tony_Ryan1892 Tony_R 🇵🇸 (@Tony_Ryan1892) reported

    @giffgaff Yes unfortunately their advice hasn't improved my signal at home or all the deadspots around the city

  • 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.

  • keithhlorraine Amy (@keithhlorraine) reported

    @giffgaff @O2 do I complain to you or O2 about the lack of service in my area. It's been a over a month now!

  • shirleyjones999 shirley jones (@shirleyjones999) reported

    @giffgaff @UswitchUK Please could you advise. I need to prove (it's vital) that we did not receive a certain call on a certain day. Your rep said that there is no way you can help, as you do not keep a record of calls received by the phone, only a record of calls made from it. Is this correct?

  • 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
