    🚨 Never buy a refurbished phone from @giffgaff they send you ducked phones then blame you for damaging it

  • nathanlawsn Nathan Lawson (@nathanlawsn) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @adamconder @OllieBrkr @giffgaff I’ve experienced that occasionally on Three also, but I found that restarting my iPhone fixes the problem, so I’m beginning to think it’s actually an iOS issue rather than a problem with the network.

  • MXOFO Lee (@MXOFO) reported from Newburn, England

    My @ThreeUK contract ends at the end of this month. Got an email the day before they announced they’re dropping their free roaming trying to convince me to renew. No thanks. I’m off to @giffgaff. I don’t give my custom to companies that fail to keep their word.

    Hey @giffgaff can you get onto O2 about the mobile signal in Sunderland City Centre, it’s almost impossible to even load twitter.

  • GosforthHotel The Gosforth Hotel (@GosforthHotel) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    . @giffgaff 4g data in NE3 area has been appalling for the last 48hrs but your coverage page indicates no issues? Voice and text is fine though. Any ideas?

    @hellojamie_t giffgaff. month by month so no contract and can go up or down as you need each month re data allowance. It means owning your phone outright though but cheaper in the long run.

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @paulsrje @giffgaff It's going to be either your phone,sim or local network coverage so trying your sim in another phone,or trying another sim in your phone will show you if it's either of the first two.

    @GlastoFestFeed Terrible for giffgaff, nothing for 6 days! :(

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    I didn’t want to change mobile provider. But I was told this was the only way I could keep my service bill at a level I could afford. I was very happy with the PAYG service I had from @giffgaff, and did not want to change, but it was that or a surcharge.

  • paulsrje paul (@paulsrje) reported

    @giffgaff Phone says emergency calls only unable to call and text. 2.7 gb data o

  • Januarygirl1946 Lancashire Lass🐝🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@Januarygirl1946) reported

    What on earth is the matter with the giffgaff signal? Appalling service for the last 2 days in the Macclesfield area. I will be wanting a refund!
