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

  • 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.

    @androidcentral In the UK I use a payg carrier called @giffgaff they don't support esim. No PAYG carrier currently supports esim unless your on a contract. I often switch aim cards from 1 phone to another. Quick and easy. Esim is just so apple can be 3% more water resistant.

    @Lego_Scientist @EE @O2 That's not a bad plan. I have 2 SIMs because I live in an area with poor coverage. Giffgaff is amazing value if you buy a phone. And I get really cheap mobile coverage with my broadband from EE.

    Having had incredibly bad signal in my flat, I switched from VirginMobile to giffgaff.* I still have bad signal. I can't use WiFi calling because my phone doesn't offer it (though I can use Facebook/WhatsApp calls). I just want to use my phone. In 2023. Why is that so hard?

    @giffgaff I’ll not be trying anything else. I’m hardly gonna drive 70 miles to Edinburgh with a spare phone and check. Technically I’m asking if anyone else has noticed how bad your coverage is. More talking about you than to you. I could give you 10 postcodes it wouldn’t matter.

  • Mr___Boy John (@Mr___Boy) reported

    @giffgaff 4g used to be really quick at home, these days my phone often shows full 4g bars but it's really slow and unresponsive. My wife's on Giffgaff and noticed the same. Is there any diagnostic we can do or anything?

  • Nathan75066829 Nathan (@Nathan75066829) reported

    @giffgaff Hey, happy customer of 10years here! I'm going to America in March for a week, will I need a completely new non-giffgaff SIM card out there?

  • Nicola45765241 🌌 Cienista 🌆 (@Nicola45765241) reported

    @giffgaff My mobile internet has been down for a few days now. I reset the phone and turned on airplane mode to reset the signal, but it doesn't work. I have to use 30 GB and the internet outside the home does not work. My signal changes from one bar to two. What's going on?
