    🚨 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?!

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

    @leahhmariee93 @giffgaff I'm a couple of months of having these issues now. Even my Spotify has to fricking buffer and it says I have full signal. Has yours Improved?

  • HoobidibooFox MANIC GAMER AISLING (@HoobidibooFox) reported

    @giffgaff Honestly, that idea never even occurred to me. It doesn't really bother me, mostly just thought it was funny, but I suppose not everyone would feel that way, so I'll report the bug to them later today.

  • mm0jxi John Innes (@mm0jxi) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Never understood paying so much for a phone contract, Samsung A51 £200 with trade in and £8 per month on Giffgaff

  • FuckThatsParky Parky (@FuckThatsParky) reported

    @CrunchyLuigi Wtf is giffgaff

  • SnappyGamingTV SnappyGamingTV (@SnappyGamingTV) reported

    Nah @giffgaff it’s been good but I’m done. Legit can’t load anything when I’m out and about and I’m over it. Best network for internet signal in UK anyone?

  • mrlister2000 Ace Mobile Tyres (@mrlister2000) reported

    @tescomobile Tesco Mobile use the O2 network, the same as GiffGaff

  • M0JCQ James M0JCQ (@M0JCQ) reported

    @ItinerantHam Had to do this for 2 months after moving QTH and waiting for BT. We both work from home. Setup phone as a hotspot, used Giffgaff initially, but O2 network was terrible, switched to SMARTY on the 3 network and it worked flawlessly. Best network depends on your area 🤓

  • DavidSu48422703 David Sutton (@DavidSu48422703) reported

    @m1kta_qrp @ItinerantHam EE is BT’s mobile network, and is an actual network provider in that they provide and manage the network infrastructure. GiffGaff is a service provider owned by Telefónica O2, just like Tesco Mobile.

  • JackVTaylor Jack Taylor (@JackVTaylor) reported

    @Tony_Ryan1892 @giffgaff Same issue in Bolton and Manchester. Ive been told by them to turn my connection to O2 on and off but it hasn't worked. With so many people having the issue you as seen on twitter you would think they realise it's on their end not ours

  • Hempomatt Matty (@Hempomatt) reported

    Switching to @giffgaff was a bad bad call. ************* have signal nowhere
