    @giffgaff I keep trying to buy a phone, when I press continue I just get a never ending loading symbol. Help?

    @samuelaled @ThreeUK If I’m not mistaken, only EE & O2 support it - & this excludes MVNOs on their networks like Giffgaff too

  • khalid22saeed Khalid (@khalid22saeed) reported

    @giffgaff is there a problem with your top up service, I’ve just topped up £20 and still not activating the goody bag, have switched the phone on and off. Seriously frustrating 😡

    @jamesmitchell09 We're glad to hear that you've now been able to log in successfully, James. The SIM swap can take up to 24 hours to complete, however we would recommend restarting your phone periodically during this time, as this would normally help. - giffgaff Emer.

    @AtomOfTheSun Hi, The order shown on your screenshot is linked to an iPhone 11, this can't be changed through a phone update. This would suggest an iPhone 11 was purchased, and would be why your phone shows an iPhone 11. I you drop us a DM we can try to help further with this. giffgaff Natalie

    @simon_euro Giffgaff use the O2 network (and, last I checked) are owned by O2 (to some extent). Somehow, they've got quite a different corporate culture, though.

  • kinson1964 james atkinson (@kinson1964) reported

    @giffgaff I've been with you for over three thousand days and now I want to change my membername. Can you arrange that or do I have to go to another network?

  • sammillsguitar Sam Mills (@sammillsguitar) reported

    My uni have just told me if I have a problem NOT to email my tutor?! Instead we have to post our question in a support forum. Didn’t realise I attended the University of GiffGaff

  • DavidPaulStocks David Paul Stocks (@DavidPaulStocks) reported

    If anyone is trying to help an isolated elderly person get setup with a new mobile phone during lockdown, avoid @giffgaff. One month of admin and 2 broken devices received in a row with no attempt to make it right. Brands will be remembered for how they behave right now.

  • lewi_38 Lewi Wilkinson (@lewi_38) reported

    @giffgaff I've been trying to buy a phone on this for ages now. When I select the phone I want and press continue, I just get a never ending circle of death on the button. Help? Please?
