Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Billingham and nearby locations:

  • mikeyoungUK Cllr Mike Young (@mikeyoungUK) reported from Elwick, England

    @giffgaff I got a payg sim for my spare phone yesterday and spent 30 quid on credit so I can use it as a data tethering device for my laptop at home. Live in a rural area so no fibre broadband option. Sadly, there is zero 4G signal. I thought all networks had this sorted?!

  • e_gran Lynda D💙 (@e_gran) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @RachelOrr I think you can just get a phone…it doesn’t have to have a giffgaff SIM (but check on that). However, GG is so cheap and easy and you can change plans or cancel with no contract. We have both been with them for years and years.

  • RobDowson86 Rob Dowson (@RobDowson86) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    @giffgaff Hi I have two queries, basically my phone sale is not appearing in selling my phone and also my revised quote is £13.50 and stating there is white dots on the screen this wasn't a issue when I send my phone to yourselves.

    🚨 Never buy a refurbished phone from @giffgaff they send you ducked phones then blame you for damaging it

  • nathanlawsn Nathan Lawson (@nathanlawsn) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @adamconder @OllieBrkr @giffgaff I’ve experienced that occasionally on Three also, but I found that restarting my iPhone fixes the problem, so I’m beginning to think it’s actually an iOS issue rather than a problem with the network.

  • jodieforeman jodiex (@jodieforeman) reported from Redcar, England

    OH MY ******* GOD HOW CAN @giffgaff SEND ME THE WRONG SIM CARD TWICE YOU ******* STUPID ***** ABOUT TO ACTUALLY COMMIT A CRIME IM THAT MAD

  • 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.

  • FourQ #NoWarPlease #StopTheWar 𝔣𝔬𝔲𝔯𝔮 ♿ (@FourQ) reported

    I have no issue with 2FA, I welcome it with open arms. Unfortunately SMS is far from secure to start with and limits functionality. Give me a token any day. So many apps to use, Google, Authy, Yubikey. @giffgaff failed massively here.

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

    @stuartdan88 We're a pay and go company Danny, so you won't be signed into any contract. If you're with a different network, you can simply put this SIM into the phone. If the giffgaff SIM remains inactive, no further charges will apply. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • HannahV24303499 Hannah Violet (@HannahV24303499) reported

  • srobalino Bereft of all social charms 🏳️‍🌈/🇺🇸/🇬🇧 (@srobalino) reported

    Does anyone know if you can preorder a pay-as-you-go SIM card to use in Spain (ie get it sent to a US address)? @Giffgaff does this for UK. Trying to help a friend travelling outside of North America for the first time.

  • JigSoDa1stT Is that hteet ya done know (@JigSoDa1stT) reported

  • Nath_557 Nate_ (@Nath_557) reported

    @giffgaff Please could you help me with ticket 220925-001852 asap, I am overseas and this is causing me a lot of urgent problems. I have no idea what to do with my golden ticket and being unable to start a new one or cancel existing.

  • FourQ #NoWarPlease #StopTheWar 𝔣𝔬𝔲𝔯𝔮 ♿ (@FourQ) reported

    Sure if everyone's on @giffgaff and you topped up in the last 3 months you can still text each other but not to other networks, but only if everyone uses it and only for a 3 month window. If the only solution is everyone uses us, the more appealing option is not to use GG at all.
