  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

    @giffgaff @AlixAlixcool no mobile where I am either? Where is the mast down please

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

    @TarotPriestess1 Thanks Tina. We have checked and unfortunately, a phone mast close to you isn't working. Our engineers have found an issue, and we’ve ordered replacement parts to fix it. Until we're finished, you might have some trouble with your calls, texts and data - giffgaff Nicole (1/2)

  • EmilyFrostxox Emily Frost (@EmilyFrostxox) reported

    @giffgaff I have been having problems with giffgaff for over a week now signal keeps going sometimes it doesn’t even work at all? Missed some very important phone calls this week because of it could you tell me what’s happening please

  • MrsM_here Mrs-M 😷 (@MrsM_here) reported

    @kelownagurl 2/2 UK customer service is notoriously terrible. EE are reputedly best for coverage, although I’m with O2 and I haven’t had any issues. Also check out Giffgaff and Tesco Mobile - they use O2’s network but are often cheaper if you can find the right deal.

  • eactnowuk EActNowUK #fightpovertynotpoorpeople (@eactnowuk) reported

    @BeckettyBeck @VodafoneUK my damn newspaper, online games are STILL out due to lag, and due to circumstances outside my control, I won't have the money to get my phone unlocked till tomorrow, a full WEEK after I planned to...already have my @giffgaff SIM ready to go... #FuckVodafone

  • eactnowuk EActNowUK #fightpovertynotpoorpeople (@eactnowuk) reported

    @BeckettyBeck @VodafoneUK @giffgaff Speed goes from 5mbps to 50mbps...either every few minutes, or it stays at 5mbps for half an hour at a time...it's the most FRUSTRATING thing rn, as I live my whole life, and SURVIVE using the internet...seems like whenever I try to do something important, the damn thing goes!

  • TarotPriestess1 Tina Heald ♒️⚔️🌬 (@TarotPriestess1) reported

    @giffgaff Worst connection in Bury St. Edmunds! It won’t go past two bars! So much for being able to use walking maps. Or anything but texting. Waste of money.😞

  • Blacktern1 Blacktern (@Blacktern1) reported

    @giffgaff seriously having issues with this network i feel like throwing it away if not that i have registered a lot of things with it.its just too difficult especially converting credit to data used 25 pounds already within three days.Your rating is -0.

  • Captain_Havok Thor Sokkolfrson (@Captain_Havok) reported

    @taysump Giffgaff - EU roaming and 5g at no extra cost. No contract - cancel when you like.

  • lazystusan stusan (@lazystusan) reported

    Absolutely never going with three again as soon as this god awful contract is over. I’m sorry giffgaff, I’ve learnt my lesson.
