  • 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.

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown 🐝💛🖤💛🖤💛🐝 (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @giffgaff Is there an problem with the network with sending and receiving texts messages. Both my wife and I are getting undelivered, each time when we sending texts over the last week. Little annoying to say the least.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff No phone signal where you live? That sounds nice Actually

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

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

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff If it works elsewhere and other networks work then yes switch to one that works. But maybe don't pick another provider that uses O2 network.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • emstweets78 Emma Hadnum (@emstweets78) reported

    @giffgaff having loads of trouble since moved over like saying call will be charged and probs with sim #sortitout

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

    @Davidboatymcboa Oh dear, Linda. If your Mum is on the giffgaff network, and she is receiving calls from numbers she does not recognise, we would recommend blocking these on her phone, so they can't get in touch again - giffgaff Jade

  • DanielR26058162 Dan eddy (@DanielR26058162) reported

    @giffgaff is the network down in the North West area ?

  • sparkes66 Sue P (@sparkes66) reported

    @giffgaff no network for last couple of days and local information says it’s down to replacement of phone mast and due to be out for another 5 days. Where is the communication? I hope you will be giving a refund for the service you are not currently providing?

  • PandaSquiish NinjaPanda (@PandaSquiish) reported

    @AnxiousHolly In the UK only a few carriers support esim. Its never mentioned in any adverts and its on contract only. PAYG networks like giffgaff don't support esim. I get the simplicity and convenience of esim but swapping between phones, how easy is it compared to just swapping a sim card?

  • Sue_Back Sue Back (@Sue_Back) reported

    @giffgaff hi Giffgaff, my data is barely working on my phone and signal is really bad. I’ve rebooted phone and checked website for outages and that I have lots of data left. Any ideas? My landline and broadband are down so I need my mobile and data to work!

  • Aug24 Eh? I? (@Aug24) reported

    Hey @giffgaff - returned a phone to you via Royal Mail Tracked 24 and somewhere between being collected from my door and you, the package got emptied. So far, so bad - but it gets worse. RM say that they don't reimburse >£100. So your return service is unfit for purpose.

    @DevonportDreams o2/giffgaff is awful at home park! alot of people find it works ok on 3g as most are on 4g but i wouldnt recommend it. Plymouth is behind the times with 5g tech.
