  • 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.

    @tescomobile Currently with Three and my signal is awful. Thanks to your promoted Tweet and listening to your customers, I think I'll be joining @giffgaff when my contract with Three ends in August 👌 Thank you!

    @giffgaff what is up with the data network at the moment, it won’t load a thing and hasn’t for the last few days!

  • GentlemanRogue PlayingABlinders (@GentlemanRogue) reported

    @DJ_DavidPrice @tescomobile Giffgaff PAYG - £25pcm rolling contract, unlimited everything, runs through O2 network. Been on it for years, bombproof service. They do sim only or phone and sim deal.

    @giffgaff Hi there! I activated a SIM while I was on holiday in the UK over Christmas and I’m still being charged for it (I no longer need it) I can’t seem to log into my account to cancel - can you please help? 🙏🏼

  • sciencebase David Bradley (@sciencebase) reported

    @chrsphr I have the cheapest GiffGaff "goody" bag...sick squid, barely use my data up but then I'm never far from WiFi

  • catofstripes catofstripes (@catofstripes) reported

    @giffgaff Help. We've paid for a goodybag and want to start it early using the button but the site insists we buy a new one. What do we do?

  • Staymadho3 BIG SPEAKER 🗣 (@Staymadho3) reported

    @giffgaff just locked my sim and can’t make any calls or texts, need some help.

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

    @LorzyG Hi there. We completely understand how frustrating this must be for you, however, we do advise that you allow up to 2PM the following day. Should the issue persist after this time frame then please get back to us, and we'll investigate this further. - giffgaff Tasbiya

    @giffgaff my phone has had a blackout since 2pm today. whats happening?

  • erabass Erato Basea (@erabass) reported

    @giffgaff I have been trying to seek help to activate my SIM card (but keep my old number) for a month but your customer service leaves a lot to be desired. Why don't you do call centers? I think I speak to a different person each time who doesn't know all previous correspondence
