    @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.

    @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.

  • 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.

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

  • 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)

  • 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 No phone signal where you live? That sounds nice Actually

    @giffgaff My issue is, how did they get into my account and circumvent my 2FA? I've had 2FA on my account since it was introduced. They managed to change my email, and password, AND transfer my sim without my knowledge. 1/

  • joepasseyPT Joe Passey (@joepasseyPT) reported

    @giffgaff Is your network down in Kent?! Nothing is loading up. Even though it says I have 4G??

  • Steve_Hoon Stephen R Hoon (@Steve_Hoon) reported

    @giffgaff service coverage in SK13 6## now consistently dire, patchy, unreliable. All you deliver are unfulfilled engineering promises. Sort it or loose your customers.

    My wifi is down and I’ve just realised how terrible @giffgaff is 🙃🙃

  • CTwatt C. T.Watt (@CTwatt) reported

    @giffgaff Hi, I ordered a SIM card for my mother in law and she's set up a new account using it as we wanted to cash in on your offer of us both getting a £5 in return. She's not had anything and neither have I. I wanted her to have my £5. Can you help us out with this? Thanks

  • newagepixie 🏳️‍🌈Pixie Davies🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@newagepixie) reported

    @giffgaff I work in IT, well aware of the do's and don't of spoof messages. I didn't click the link in the message. I instantly went to my PC and went directly to giffgaff via the normal web address and attempted to login, 1/
