  • suhailpatel Suhail Patel (@suhailpatel) reported from London, England

    @Geek_Manager @jaseemabid @watbe @filipecvarela @ThreeUK @EE @giffgaff Three around Central London has been very spotty for me too (although it’s worse on iPhones than Androids, maybe it’s the iOS baseband on Three’s bands). Vodafone have been my go-to pretty much everywhere. Unfortunately the support is abysmal, guess you can’t have it all.

    @O2 @Joegreaney Hi I'd just like to add that this is a problem for everyone on 02 and giffgaff in that area and it's because a mast in hither green has been down for 2 years and these crooks hate you enough to ignore it.

  • AzukaFred Wang Lin (@AzukaFred) reported from Dartford, England

    Okay, so it’s not just O2. People on other networks are having issues too O2, Three, Vodafone, EE, Giffgaff with most the issues BT, Tesco Mobile & Virgin Media with a few

  • Bukom_Boy Mr Wellington (@Bukom_Boy) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

  • staylowkae baby wasteman. (@staylowkae) reported from London, England

  • richardlloydact Richard Anthony Lloyd (@richardlloydact) reported from Dartford, England

    @giffgaff Too late. As I work away I can’t afford to think I maybe won’t speak to my family when I need to. I am cancelling. If you could furnish me with your member service email please; I can’t seem to find that on your website. Thanks.

  • fchaps68 Fiona Chapman**••..** (@fchaps68) reported from Brentwood, England

    @SophieEB @giffgaff @ThreeUK Giffgaff is great and when u go abroad I just buy a local sim and you still use your UK number on wats app. So much cheaper!Obviously only works if your phone is not locked to a particular network tho! X

  • TronalddumpUS Tronald Dump. (@TronalddumpUS) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff your network in #blackheath is atrocious. I get better signal sitting on a beach in Botswana, what's up with that?

  • uncoolbob Bob MacCallum (@uncoolbob) reported from London, England

  • Muvaharris meg (@Muvaharris) reported from London, England

    I have a very important call and giffgaff decide to go down now? Have no signal whatsoever! Always having problems! Absolute joke @giffgaff

  • Johnfamey John Amey (@Johnfamey) reported from Rayleigh, England

    .@giffgaff someone has my email address associated with their two mobile numbers with you in error so I’m receiving someone else’s correspondence. I have no mobile with you. You have no customer service number so this is the only way I can think to contact you.

  • Love_SE4 @Love_SE4💙 (@Love_SE4) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Do you know what forget I even asked I'm going into town to get a SIM from a phone shop. At least if it goes wrong there are people to help. You lot are useless you don't need my money anymore. You owe me but I doubt very much I will get anything back

  • Johndartspur John H (@Johndartspur) reported from Gravesend, England

  • PaulGrayburn PG tweets (@PaulGrayburn) reported from Romford, England

    @DanJay946 @EE @ThreeUK @giffgaff You know they use the O2 network. You’d get a better performance with them instead of giffgaff.

  • AkpaluGeorge George Akpalu (@AkpaluGeorge) reported from London, England

    Giffgaff is so slow and keeps breaking

  • Maliwil RAVEAUD Emmanuel (@Maliwil) reported from London, England

  • LauraSummersNow Laura Summers (@LauraSummersNow) reported from London, England

    @giffgaff Hi Giffgaff! Something has gone wrong in North Greenwich with your network. Calls keep cutting out here. We’re all going to change network (unless this is just about to fix!) - it’s my husband and I (on Giffgaff) plus a neighbour on Sky (also 02)

  • egino egino (@egino) reported

    I’ve been with @O2 for years, they recently increased my monthly contact with no additional benefits and when I decided to move to @giffgaff, they charged me for cancelling the contract with them. Such a great way to treat your (no more) loyal customers #O2 #customerexperience

  • AndreaChipman Andrea Chipman (@AndreaChipman) reported

    @giffgaff I am unable to get my phone to work, after replacing the sim card a week after I misplaced the phone, reported it lost, and then found it. Your agents have been unable to help. The sim works in other phones, so something appears to be locked or blocked on your end.

  • RachieBlossom Rachie (@RachieBlossom) reported

    @giffgaff I've paid yesterday to change my goodybag and start it early. Payment shows as been taken from my bank but your saying my goodybag hasn't started yet. Please help,
