    @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.

  • TyneTom Tom Bailey (@TyneTom) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @gazza_d @KarlOnSea @girodilento I did hear that you are further down the priority list for bandwidth congestion with giffgaff than O2. (Also in a macho - mine is bigger than yours kind of way, I have more data than you are allowed buy, 40GB. Travelling a lot these days)

  • SixCylinderDean Dean (@SixCylinderDean) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

  • sayxnox .. (@sayxnox) reported

    @giffgaff Aaah so you trick people into spending more money I see thank god I’m going with a proper network soon

  • jlo_fromdawoo JLo Da **** (@jlo_fromdawoo) reported

    @giffgaff I'm not impressed how after my data pack expired today, giffgaff stop my WiFi from loading pages other than the "Buy More Giff Gaff" page. Turn off mobile data, WiFi works again. It's made me seriously consider an alternative network.

  • sayxnox .. (@sayxnox) reported

    @giffgaff It’s now slow because apparently I’ve used my 80gb how you gonna charge £25 for unlimited data but after 80gb you ca know barely use the internet daylight robbery

  • HistoryAshe SeánAshe🎃👻 (@HistoryAshe) reported

    Day 12. Internet is no longer dropping out every few minutes. It's now just constantly out now. I am genuinely considering getting a 4G dongle and an unlimited 4G plan with GiffGaff and ditching broadband altogether. It's proven itself to be highly unreliable and very slow.

  • mary_yeung M (@mary_yeung) reported

    @giffgaff I’d love to reach out to your team but giff gaff likes to hide contact details and make us read forums and blogs. I have moved to another phone network - cannot log in, what do I do?

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

    @LewisJFC We're very sorry to hear this, Lewis. Please can you provide your full UK postcode via DM, so we can check for issues in the area - giffgaff Jade

  • mary_yeung M (@mary_yeung) reported

    @giffgaff Hi Jeanette, as I just said, I have moved to a new network so I cannot log in to my old giff gaff account. All I want is a refund.

  • LottieLouise_UK LottieLouise (@LottieLouise_UK) reported

    See I'd have no issues with #Whatsapp being down if it wasn't for the fact #giffgaff also won't let me send texts! Recieving but not sending them...what an earth is going on?

  • MalcolmJEdwards Malcolm Edwards (@MalcolmJEdwards) reported

    @giffgaff Just don’t expect any customer service. Giffgaff agents gave me incorrect information after my SIM was lost. Rather than apologise just fobbed me off & when I said I wasn’t happy sent me a PAC code link to get my 4 accounts transferred elsewhere! “Got a complaint - well f**k off”
