  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    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

  • HouseInNowhere Hidden Villain Lilith (@HouseInNowhere) reported

    @Nash076 @LexiAlex Yeah that's not even a weird American thing either. I used to be on Giffgaff, which is a UK network renting space from O2 for cheaper.

  • morenikee7 Moreniké🇳🇬 (@morenikee7) reported

    @giffgaff I have had no service on my phone for 2 days. Can you help?

  • fatbert_eth fatbert (💙,🧡) (@fatbert_eth) reported

    @giffgaff hi, is there network issues, I have no service

  • tomscott230 T Scott (@tomscott230) reported

    @giffgaff Hello. Can I confirm with you folks that your sims are compatible with all modern Android phones please? My current provider only support phones purchased from them with is very frustrating.

  • jen_efc Jen (@jen_efc) reported

    Anyone know what 3 phone network is like? I’m currently on giffgaff but signal is shite, especially round Goodison when I can’t contact anyone at all. Signal map on 3 website looks good but wondering if anyone can give any advice/recommendations 👍🏼

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

    @miillsy You would have been given a transfer date Amy, and on this date, both SIMs would lose service, with your giffgaff SIM then being disconnected as your number would then be on your new SIM. If this hasn't occurred, please contact your new provider. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • Myers_Helper Lisa (@Myers_Helper) reported

    @giffgaff it looks like I won't be able to join you cos it looks like a complicated process and no one will help me. I don't buy online normaly

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

    @Myers_Helper You should be able to get your PAC code from Vodafone Lisa, so it may be worthwhile speaking with them again regarding getting this from them. Once used, this would cancel your current SIM with them, so you wouldn't need to wait till February. - giffgaff Jeanette
