    FFFS @giffgaff now you're **** website is not sending the 2 Factor Authentication codes which you forced users to enable but they cannot disable 😡🤬 Seriously patients close to expiring now with your antiquated crap support system & NO phone support number.

  • ABlondeFlame Christina Lynn (@ABlondeFlame) reported

    @giffgaff Had NO data or signal of any kind for 3 days. Have done EVERY form of troubleshooting. Now getting messages from Facebook saying “my mobile provider no longer recognises my number as valid.” Please help! Case Ref: 220401-000826

    @giffgaff The card company did today. I have gone to your help page and attempted to get help but no response yet. I would prefer to speak to someone asap.

  • darrenwaters Darren Waters (@darrenwaters) reported

    @NicholasGarnett @giffgaff Thanks. Think I worked out the issue. I have a work phone which also has my iCloud account. It was set to only receive iMessages through my Apple ID. But….when I reactivated iMessage with my new sim and ported number it activated the work phone number. Without my say so!

  • manx_maid Stephanie Brooke (@manx_maid) reported

    @O2 @giffgaff I have been driven to where there *is* a signal for half an hour (if I make a call, it works, but I get "conditional forwarding activated*) I suspect they may have been using a Vodafone 3G mast which has just been switched off, so forcing everyone to get a 4G something 😠

  • DylanTeague Dylan Teague (@DylanTeague) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks. Yeah I understand but I think there should be actual help in cases of possible fraud. Your prices aren't as competitive as they used to be, I'm tempted to leave for a company with a helpline after this.

    @AwokeRoseArisen The SIM card will not work unless it has been activated. We would recommend that you try activating the SIM card on a new web browser or device, as this should help - giffgaff Jade
