    @DuskyTheWusky We can understand how frustrating this is for you. As there is a mast issue where you are, this will affect all your services, including your data connection and speed. We wish there was more we could advise at present. - giffgaff Jeanette

    @giffgaff I’m trying to work out how to stop my account from rolling over. I can’t log into my account because my phone has remembered the wrong account name and I can’t text from my giff gaff sim because it’s only used in a mobile router. Please help!

    @giffgaff I’m after a network that lets me top up when I need to - no faff - no contracts - £10 bundles suit me - what’s your customer service like ?

  • Carlo14601 Carl (@Carlo14601) reported

    @Ofcom surely there is a minimum guaranteed speed the networks need to provide, and O2 is failing miserably on this?! Across the UK as noted in their own community forums and the giffgaff forums proving there is an issue they are reluctant to address. #greed

    Lots of heavy lifting was done by giffgaff's customer community: 80% of customer support, 40% of acquisition, 50% reduction in operating costs. I like the broad focus on supporting different areas, instead of getting locked into a single one. #swarmconf

    @giffgaff multiple users reporting weak or no signal today @ Goldsmiths SE14 6NW. Can you confirm mast is working ok?

    @EarlOfSidmouth Unfortunately there isn't currently a timescale available as to when this will be resolved. The map would show what the coverage in the area normally is, however it shows network is currently busy, which would be cause an issue with your service. - giffgaff Emer.

  • wru4me #FBIW Welsh Rugby Mad dragon 🐲 (@wru4me) reported

    @O2 @giffgaff can anyone help. Network down for giffgaff users in my area (CF63) appantly for upgrade work. How long will this take as have voicemail can't listen to which may be very important. Says may be down until 8pm 11/9 😱

  • AlexTechRich Daryl (@AlexTechRich) reported

    @BSLLondon @giffgaff Nope. Nothing yet. TEN days without service, THREE days since activating SIM card (exactly as instructed). It's a real problem. When (if) it comes back, will text you. #GiffGaff #customerservice @Ofcom
