  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Selly Park, England

    Seem to be finding it increasingly difficult to maintain a 3G signal from @giffgaff in Birmingham City Centre and around University station / Birmingham University area. Already had to give up on 4G in the city. Not really good enough. Couldn’t even tweet this from location!

    @mrswils76353408 @giffgaff Must be the more users that sign up to giffgaff the slower their network gets? It was mint until 2022...

  • sysadmiral Amo Chumber 👨🏽‍💻 (@sysadmiral) reported from Birmingham, England

    All the lights flickered & then our local neighbourhood had a power outage. Lasted about 4mins but local WAN seems to be down for multiple ISPs/methods... (Virgin broadband/EE 4G/Giffgaff(O2) 4G). Interesting breakage! ⚡

  • CriticJonni Jonathan Currinn (@CriticJonni) reported from Birmingham, England

    So apparently I've been with @giffgaff for 8 years! It feels like a lot longer, it:s incredible value for money and swapping over was one of the best things I ever did... I need the price of phones to go down so I can buy a new one, would never consider a contract! No need to!

  • AWaters1992 Alex H₂Os (@AWaters1992) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @giffgaff Tried that just get a pre written scripted email back. Il look else where. A phone network provider with no phone theirself. You couldnt make this shit up 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  • A_J_92 Ash❗️ (@A_J_92) reported from Birmingham, England

    @georgiaahale @giffgaff @TalkTalk @ThreeUK Oh shit! If it was within 14 days you can defo cancel penalty free as that's within the cooling off period. Make a complaint if you haven't already, don't let them get away with it. Sometimes they need that kick if all else fails email the CEO I can provide email ad.

    @TheIronSkull We're sorry to hear this. Please try the SIM in another phone, to check if there's an issue with the SIM or phone to cause this. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • prodosial alison (@prodosial) reported

    I’ve had several different @RateSetter loans in the six years I’ve been a @giffgaff customer and paid them all on time and yet I’ve just been denied by @Klarna. If full time minimum wage isn’t enough to prove I can afford £25 a month what on earth is?

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

    @AnneneV Hi Annene. We are an online only mobile network, meaning we do not have a customer service number. Have you been in touch with our online agents through your account? - giffgaff Jade

  • RichEThomas Rich Thomas 💙 (@RichEThomas) reported

    @giffgaff You’re about to lose 4 customers to EE unless you can get @O2 to sort out signal coverage in the CO5 area… no reliable service now for 2 months and counting… 😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • Mediasterling1 Mediasterling (@Mediasterling1) reported

    @giffgaff It seems to have something to do with the type of connections. Everything works after I started to use the home WiFi, not working with the mobile data/the hotel WiFi while I was away though

  • O2 O2 in the UK (@O2) reported

    @RichEThomas 😢 Are you a giffgaff customer Rich? If so, please contact them directly to raise this with them.

  • jakebrough10 jake (@jakebrough10) reported

    @giffgaff Well I’ve tried entering this PAC code into my new network provider and it doesn’t accept it Jeanette
