    @giffgaff hi team is it possible to have some help in regards to my account?

  • 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?

  • 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.

    @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.

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

    Giffgaff is so slow and keeps breaking

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • jeres Jeremy Allen (@jeres) reported

    @hotgemMGMT I can't remember why but I had to get a contract phone. Was gutted to leave GiffGaff as they were the best service provider ever, and I've had a few.

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

    @moonlightcrys10 Oh dear, that's strange. Please try clearing the cache and cookies on your browser, and then try that out again. If you have the same problems, we would recommend trying that out using another internet browser or device. - giffgaff Emer.

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @X_eLle_S @giffgaff This is because call barring is switched on in your phone settings,it's not a network problem. You need to do a quick Google search for "switch off call barring on your phone make and model"and you should find the default pin code for your model.

  • Seanylane Seán Patrick Lane (@Seanylane) reported

    Having trouble with @giffgaff not getting any data but coming up as I am using it. Asked to change my sim. Who has two SIM cards. Only drug dealers got that ****

  • moonlightcrys10 moonlightcrystalsliverpool (@moonlightcrys10) reported

    @giffgaff you have sent me a broken phone and the website will not put me through to an agent! This is disgusting

  • BennyHall17 Benny Hall 🇺🇦 (@BennyHall17) reported

    @KINGofAVFC I’m with Giffgaff and signal awful past 4 months

  • _gordongeorge Gordon (@_gordongeorge) reported

    @giffgaff your app bug is still there. I pay for a Goodybag, the confirmation wording says new Goodybag starts on 23rd April. When I look on my account it says, correctly, the Goodybag starts on 23rd March. Reported this many times. Plse don't ask for more info. But plse fix it.

  • Thriftmaster2 Thriftmaster (@Thriftmaster2) reported

    @tescomobile @AnnReyn75876642 Tesco don't have a "physical" network, Tesco mobile is just rebranded O2, same as giffgaff, same as sky mobile.

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

    @harychad Oh dear, that's not good. Can you please drop us a DM with your full post code, so we can check for any issues in your area? - giffgaff Tasbiya
