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

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @giffgaff Hi there. I received my new SIM and activated it 3 hours ago and still not able to make calls. Can you help there?

  • gulam_h Gulam Hussain (@gulam_h) reported

    @giffgaff I have. The steps I'm being given don't help at all. The number has been ported across fine. Just for some reason, it's not registering with Google Messages RCS.

    @OnePlus_USA When are you going to fix the issues of no 5g showing for the oneplus 8 pro, the n78 band is supported, 02 aka Giffgaff is a network woth 5g, but still like numerous other networks & owners of this phone complained on the official forum, you're ignoring the issue

  • LuisUnleashed Luis (@LuisUnleashed) reported

    @giffgaff my data connection is TRAGIC. Saying I have 4G but quite frankly I’m not receiving the service I’m paying for. This is on going for the last while. Please help me!

  • ciaranjreynolds Ciaran Reynolds (@ciaranjreynolds) reported

    @giffgaff getting terrible service so far. Chose to recycle my old phone with yourselves as a reputable company, however have reduced the offered price due to a crack on the back… the phone was in impeccable condition and sent with a case to ensure no damage on the journey.

  • mcgill88_sean McGill (@mcgill88_sean) reported

    @giffgaff absolute joke, acknowledging that I have reported an issue with an auto response or clearly disregarding what my actual issue is, shouldn't be a mobile network

    @VOXI_UK I see I have 2 more questions one will you ever support Discord Two would you consider your network better than Giffgaff as I am only getting around 5 or 8 MBs from them?

  • darrel96 Darrel Roberts (@darrel96) reported
