Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Cowes and nearby locations:

  • pachallis Peter Challis (@pachallis) reported from Fareham, England

    @notmany4benny @carterBFC @SamsungUK One of the disadvantages of living in rural locations. At least you must have beautiful views instead. I had problems with Three and I live 200m from a transmitter where I get flaky voice calls. Apparently I need a Three supplied phone to get VOLTE. Currently on O2/Giffgaff.

  • ChrisOverthrow Chris Overthrow (@ChrisOverthrow) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @brendonvbone I was with giffgaff (o2) and its bollocks. Now with Vodafone. I get decent signal apart from half time. At half time I can get some internet but it's very slow. That's unavoidable with 18k people all using their phones though.

    With @O2 for 12 years, received no bonus/increases/discounts in tariff or service plan, left last month for @giffgaff - monthly entitlement same, no contract and half the price. Also, they've already added data to my plan after 1 month. Tidy. (NB: GiffGaff runs on 02, go figure)

    @PurePoliceCams @giffgaff What network do they use? I'm with BT which uses EE's and I get signal almost anywhere I go. When on giffgaff I found I was a bit screwed in certain parts of the South East.

    @Loreleilyrics Oh shite. First Virgin ate every healthcare service that wasn't nailed down, now O2/Giffgaff. An all consuming borg.

  • Metaorphan Rich Ward (@Metaorphan) reported

    @giffgaff “Should”? I should have received the last one. I should have my refund in my account. I should not have had to discover this problem myself, giff gaff should have.

  • RickJoaquimDOP Rick Joaquim, SASC (@RickJoaquimDOP) reported

    @giffgaff hi there. Struggling to get my roaming working in Portugal. I’ve loaded up a gold goody bag and still won’t let me use my data? Please help

  • slowcrushh Jamie (@slowcrushh) reported

    @giffgaff Hi Giffgaff, I've broken my phone and the SIM is stuck inside it. I've ordered a new SIM, but how long will it take to arrive please?

  • PurePoliceCams Pure Police Cams (@PurePoliceCams) reported

    After probably a decade with @giffgaff I'm going to be leaving their network. why? Because since moving their website tells me I should have great signal indoors and outdoors and it's literally rubbish. Can't even send a text. It's not my phone or the APN settings. It's GiffGaff.
