    @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)

  • chrismayes .💙#FBPPR #FBPE You have no authority here johnson (@chrismayes) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Hey @giffgaff #DontFundGBNews or i terminate my contract Just sayin.

  • 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.

  • JulieVintageTea Julie Clay (@JulieVintageTea) reported from Shiremoor, England

    Still no joy with my phone, my days are numbered now with @giffgaff after many years loyal support #no4g

  • 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.

    Hi @giffgaff, this is not good enough. Sorry, but your service during the streaming of the #ENGDEN match was appalling. Please refund me, or I will go elsewhere.

  • Martin83569429 Martin (@Martin83569429) reported

    @giffgaff I have been messaging your agents and no reply I have a disabled child and other people on your community having the same issue. Is this linked to your planned maintenance due to be finished at 7am I need this fixing now

  • SarahNe20073843 Sarah Neal (@SarahNe20073843) reported

    Just to let everyone know that most of the apps have gone down TikTok and Giffgaff app isn't working for some reason and my sky account isn't working. @SkyNewsBiz

  • steverico steve richardson (C) 🏆 (@steverico) reported

    @giffgaff No I know but they are routed through your network which I know provided by @O2 so someone should take responsibility and stop these scammers I’m sick of blocking numbers

  • Martin83569429 Martin (@Martin83569429) reported

    @giffgaff How much did that cost you awful network can't even buy a goodybag

  • michaelcallagh7 michael callaghan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@michaelcallagh7) reported

    @O2 signal is terrible it's like being with tmobile years ago and having to hang about near window to get a signal, costing me £25 a month, should if stayed with @giffgaff

  • brunel_monkey Ben Vallely (@brunel_monkey) reported

    @giffgaff You're a pay as you go mobile network, but can't charge for pay as you go services? You realise that makes zero sense right?

  • Salmanhaider315 M.Salman.Haider (@Salmanhaider315) reported

    @giffgaff New number isnt a problem I know but is it possible to change my new number to my old number? Would that be possible?

  • PlipOGamez Plipo Gamez (@PlipOGamez) reported

    @giffgaff Is it guaranteed I will get 100GB for £20? You people should learn how do good support. Each time I contact you with a simple question, I get fobbed off by people who don't know how to do their job. You should aim to resolve issues with the least number of interactions.

    @giffgaff Not my end the issue !
