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.

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

    @stuartdan88 We're a pay and go company Danny, so you won't be signed into any contract. If you're with a different network, you can simply put this SIM into the phone. If the giffgaff SIM remains inactive, no further charges will apply. - giffgaff Jeanette

    @giffgaff so dissatisfying and disappointing. I’ve put my whole family into this service

  • FourQ #NoWarPlease #StopTheWar 𝔣𝔬𝔲𝔯𝔮 ♿ (@FourQ) reported

    So frustrating topping up @giffgaff phone. Forced 2FA is SMS, not proper authenticator codes. 2FA challenge, GG sent a text, to a phone I can't see. They can't send me the code because... out of credit. If it was proper 2FA I could use my phone to authenticate to top up. Fail! 🙄

    @stuartdan88 @giffgaff Hi Stuart 👋 you must get one month goodybag but you can cancel after by turning off the recur setting
