  • 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)

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • BoringCarDriver Phil (@BoringCarDriver) reported

    @thealso @giffgaff Man, that sucks. My limit dropped from 20 to 12 last year, wouldn’t be surprised if it drops more. We collectively got through about 30GB roaming in a week recently.

  • t2stu Stuart M Bird (@t2stu) reported

    @thealso @giffgaff At least you get to use it overseas. @ThreeUK shafted me recently. Didn't know you had to let them know. Using wi-fi and Twitter they said they were going to TEXT me a password for the website. I HAD NO NETWORK! Got the password when l returned to the UK. It didn't work.

  • Inthedin1 In The Din ⚽️ #FBPE (@Inthedin1) reported

    @adamskiodp @Yorksims @giffgaff No, I had several text conversations and calls using the WiFi here. There is no signal so everything was done on WiFi and the people I was communicating with were not using WhatsApp.

  • GiantChimpNut Scott (@GiantChimpNut) reported

    @giffgaff I’ve not had signal since yesterday morning. BH23 area. Status says there’s a faulty mast in my area. Would be good if that got fixed..

  • donnamacbabe Donna💞💋💄🇮🇪 (@donnamacbabe) reported
