  • 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.

  • 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?

  • MeInSunderland #ImMe | #SAFC | 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 (@MeInSunderland) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @1BenBaller @giffgaff It’s on its way back but why annoyed me was that @giffgaff didn’t seem to care. I was told to contact apple support. Erm no. If I buy a phone then I expect it to work

  • MeInSunderland #ImMe | #SAFC | 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 (@MeInSunderland) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

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

  • SixCylinderDean Dean (@SixCylinderDean) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

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

  • DaveSThompson David Thompson (@DaveSThompson) reported from Corbridge, England

    Hello, you lovely @giffgaff people. I know I'm not alone in not having received the #emergencyalert message on my phone, however my wife next to me did on her Giffgaff Android mobile; presumably the signal is from the same mast? It's probably a Gov't ****-up as usual... Hey ho.

  • 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.

  • ScooterRiderFMX 🏳️‍🌈 #ImMeWhoAreYou 🏳️‍🌈 (@ScooterRiderFMX) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Data still not working. I’ll be glad when I ditch @giffgaff

  • Gordon_998877 G (@Gordon_998877) reported

    @nsandihelp @Langfordgolf Having same problem ie typing # to NS&I security calls & you've said same to me that it's poor-quality compression of reverse DTMF files. I feel this is "new" & NS&I shld do more inc contacting the main network providers. I've raised w/ GiffGaff but I think NS&I should do more.

  • Luke_Johns_ Luke (@Luke_Johns_) reported

    Finally leaving @EE after over a decade. Adding a "free trial" of a service onto my number without consent, then charging me for it because I didn't know to opt out. See you very soon @giffgaff

  • melroykazoole Melroy (@melroykazoole) reported

    @giffgaff what’s going on with my internet recently? Data seems to be flying out the window but apps are slow or won’t load and keep getting asked to check Internet connection 😫 is there a problem?

  • borisourhero RULE BRITANNIA. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇹🇻🇹🇦🇹🇨🇸🇭🇬🇧 (@borisourhero) reported

  • open_dorz Open Dorz (@open_dorz) reported

    @giffgaff I think its sad how you preach about community yet the ones that are really struggling you cant help, it really just comes down to money, i have been with giffgaff most of my life. Think its time to change Help the phoneless- we provide basic mobile handsets to the unfortunate

  • edent Terence Eden (@edent) reported

    O2 & GiffGaff list their prices (cheap!) Vodafone's customer services didn't know. Three's number checker doesn't recognise 056 EE have a separate PDF (expensive) BT & Virgin have nothing. I might have to get an 056 number, have people call me, and see what it costs them!

  • Stevieboyj1000 Steve johnson (@Stevieboyj1000) reported
