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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?!

  • ScooterRiderFMX 🏳️‍🌈 #ImMeWhoAreYou 🏳️‍🌈 (@ScooterRiderFMX) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Data still not working. I’ll be glad when I ditch @giffgaff

  • 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

  • MeInSunderland #ImMe | #SAFC | 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 (@MeInSunderland) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

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

  • MeInSunderland #ImMe | #SAFC | 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 (@MeInSunderland) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @1BenBaller @giffgaff It’s on its way back but why annoyed me was that @giffgaff didn’t seem to care. I was told to contact apple support. Erm no. If I buy a phone then I expect it to work

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @EDI_SarahMQ @giffgaff That's a shame because blocking the phone only bars it from connecting to the network but all of your child's data will still be on it so fingers crossed whoever finds it can't get past your child's pin code and so can't get into the phone.

  • WarlockGlyndalf Glyn Roberts (@WarlockGlyndalf) reported

    @giffgaff How long after switching will I start getting useable mobile Internet speeds? Switched yesterday but only getting 0.2 mbps up and around the same down. Checked the usual solutions but no luck.

  • michaelocyoung Michael Young (@michaelocyoung) reported

    @littlesthomebrw Hmm that's slightly disturbing - Sky Mobile (which I'm assuming you're on from the Passport Plus name) uses the O2 network, which isn't charging roaming fees (and nor are GiffGaff who also use O2) so this is just profiteering on Sky's part.

  • HGooner14 HGooner14 (@HGooner14) reported

    @giffgaff @Ofcom another day and my internet isn’t working, despite me paying £35 for my data plan a few days ago. I’ll be escalating this and putting through an official complaint as it’s unacceptable. I use the internet for work and it’s currently being throttled.

  • pauldevenish Paul 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦🇸🇪 (@pauldevenish) reported

    @giffgaff I'd like to make you aware of a scam which is happening which is being handled on your network, is there a way of reporting this? #scam #scammers

  • hapsci Heather Doran, PhD (@hapsci) reported

    @giffgaff I’m having real issues with getting data (particularly in towns and cities). My phone says there’s a 4G connection but then says the network can’t be activated. It’s sporadic and happens in Dundee city centre particularly. Is it a data issue or conflict with wifi

  • WarlockGlyndalf Glyn Roberts (@WarlockGlyndalf) reported

    @giffgaff Hi. After several restarts and network resets speed is still unusable. At around 7 am it was OK but from 8am zilch. Now down 0.1 up just fails. Using Ookla Speedtest.

  • championbankole Michael Bankole (@championbankole) reported

    @giffgaff This still doesn’t fix the issue. My email has 2FA active. I left 2FA off for giffgaff so I could access my account from anywhere to request a sim. I will not be able to access my email until I have my phone number HANDY

  • michaelocyoung Michael Young (@michaelocyoung) reported

    Hello @giffgaff A friend who is on a rival network (but one which also uses O2 infrastructure) has had EU roaming charges implemented. Can you confirm that you are going to continue not charging for EU+Norway roaming - at least until July?

  • HGooner14 HGooner14 (@HGooner14) reported

    @giffgaff Yes, I have just raised a complaint in regards to this as it’s unacceptable and I’ve contacted the Ombudsman with regards to this issue as I’m not being able to use the services that I paid for.
