    Hey @giffgaff can you get onto O2 about the mobile signal in Sunderland City Centre, it’s almost impossible to even load twitter.

  • 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.

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown 🐝💛🖤💛🖤💛🐝 (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @giffgaff Is there an problem with the network with sending and receiving texts messages. Both my wife and I are getting undelivered, each time when we sending texts over the last week. Little annoying to say the least.

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

  • MXOFO Lee (@MXOFO) reported from Newburn, England

    My @ThreeUK contract ends at the end of this month. Got an email the day before they announced they’re dropping their free roaming trying to convince me to renew. No thanks. I’m off to @giffgaff. I don’t give my custom to companies that fail to keep their word.

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • GosforthHotel The Gosforth Hotel (@GosforthHotel) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    . @giffgaff 4g data in NE3 area has been appalling for the last 48hrs but your coverage page indicates no issues? Voice and text is fine though. Any ideas?

  • lKevBuxton Kev Buxton (@lKevBuxton) reported

    @giffgaff So it turns out that someone is using your network to 'neighour spoof' your users... Please sort this out as I'm not having to block 'neighour spoofing' on my phone not all of your other customers can do that!

  • BluePixel8 Toffee (@BluePixel8) reported

    1/3 @giffgaff is committing a fraudulent act. Exploiting me and stealing my money. I was resetting my password in order to cancel auto renew and change my goodybag because the current goodybag is too expensive for me.

  • Linkzy_x Jamie Andrews (@Linkzy_x) reported

    @giffgaff If I were to purchase a one-off data Goodybag, does the data expire at all on these or is it for "forever"? Exploring options for a 4G backup solution for my broadband router in case my internet were to go down. Thank you!
