  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • CWMcGinnes CW McGinnes (@CWMcGinnes) reported from London, England

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

    @giffgaff Oh thanks so much, only one solution refund my money back on 5 days, so I don't have a phone for a new week. Thanks @dpd_support for your perfect work ... So know you are going to give me a new phone 🤬😤

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • JelllyBeaan Gezza (@JelllyBeaan) reported from Romford, England

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

    @giffgaff have just switched to you, no link to keepnold number sent, tried to log into an agent and got access denied. Away from home and no one can get in touch. Please help ASAP!

  • EdoreFaine Cr£am (@EdoreFaine) reported from London, England

    How comes everyone with #giffgaff never answer the #phone #London #voicemail 🤨

  • 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.

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

    Giffgaff is so slow and keeps breaking

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @giffgaff Hi contacting for my friend Maggie who's an OAP she has bought a £25 goodybag at roughly 3am today and its not showing up in her credit can you private message so I can give you her number as she can't contact anyone for help

  • 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

    @giffgaff is there a problem with your network coverage ? My network has been off since 12 noon and it’s still not back.

  • till_the_wheels 𝕵𝖚𝖌𝖘 (@till_the_wheels) reported from London, England

    @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.

  • shortsandtales Shorts & Tales (@shortsandtales) reported

    @giffgaff I can't make any calls from my phone it's been almost a week now and it's the same for my partner. What's going on? My phone says I have service...

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

    @urban_decay_man A nearby mast in your area is currently not working and this will be what is causing your usage problems. The engineers are aware of the issue and are working to fix the problem as well as carrying out some upgrade work on the mast in your area. - giffgaff Ann 1/2

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

    @Teresa_M73 We can appreciate this must be frustrating Teresa and can assure you that the engineers will be doing everything they can to resolve this as soon as possible. Any issues/updates as to what is going on, will be updated in due course. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • Peter__A__Bell Peter A Bell - #ProudMalcontent #ScottishUDI (@Peter__A__Bell) reported

    Spent the morning trying to persuade @giffgaff to stop taking £6pm from my debit card for a service I no longer use. They say contact bank. Bank says contact them. I took the giffgaff gamble - and lost.

  • OllyFT Oliver Fytche-Taylor (@OllyFT) reported

    @iD_Mobile_UK @O2 @giffgaff But clearly the offers are useless to me if I can't access them?!? Seeing them on the website makes it worse when they are great offers but I'm prevented from taking them! It was your sales team that should've called me, I made a complaint but it has still made no difference.

  • Cosmyd2 Cosmyd (@Cosmyd2) reported

    @bambooped Recently tried moving to GiffGaff, who use O2 network but it was the worst service I’ve ever had. Already moved off them and onto Smarty instead. They use Three’s network, which generally works for me. Also good EU roaming (12GB included), but quite £££ outside EU. Cheap too

  • cityboydan88 Dan (@cityboydan88) reported

    @giffgaff I have been unable to access my 4G the last 3 hours, can you confirm if you are experiencing service issues please?

  • callmeaslih Aslih 🥢 (@callmeaslih) reported

    @giffgaff it’s been 4 days and I still dont have signal my phone keeps saying No Service ?????? I can’t even use my phone fix this

  • niceblink ewan b (@niceblink) reported

    @giffgaff I've had no service since 10 this morning. Restarted phone, moved location but nothing. Any known issues?

  • ShirtytrisH Shirtytrish (@ShirtytrisH) reported

    Jesus wept. Between ee and giffgaff. Hopefully ee can sort out why my number yasn't ported correctly. Giffgaff think it's a phone problem. No it isn't the number yasn't transferred. 🙄
