    @giffgaff Hi, I'm experiencing problems with data for the third day running. No reception at all today in CF11 8AT

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 This has always been an issue. We are with giffgaff whom I believe use your signal. I have tried everything. I have even bought a booster, but the reception coming into the booster isn’t enough to even make the booster work. Very frustrating. I have to sit in a window 4 reception

    @giffgaff hi! I’m buying my mother a phone for her birthday and want to get a giffgaff sim to go in it. Went to order one on your website but whose name, email, number etc do you need? Mine (buying) or hers (customer)? Thanks!

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @teamIPSE Without a doubt! And phone signal! It is appalling how bad the signal is in parts of the UK outside of London! I am 4 minutes from the Cardiff city centre with no signal! #howareyoumeanttorunabusiness @o2networks @O2 @giffgaff

    @juliegrisi You should have received a text when you reached 80% used Julie. As we're a network run by our members, managing your data allowance can be done through your account or on the app, to ensure you don't use any credit. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • Pete861993631 Pete (@Pete861993631) reported

    @sumlin @O2 O2 are up there as one of the worst customer experiences of all time, switched to giffgaff 10 years ago for 30gig at that price and a friendly text letting me know if I’m using enough to justify that monthly package

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

    @jimijames63 Hi Jimi. To fix the mast, we need to get into the site. We’re currently talking to the landlord and will enter as soon as we can. In the meantime, you might have some trouble with your calls, texts and data. We’ll update you by Monday 9th May 2022 - giffgaff Jade

  • michaelbensongg Michael Benson (@michaelbensongg) reported

    @giffgaff are the worst network in the UK. Absolutely terrible 4g then they blame it on the area I lived in almost 2 years ago!! Laughable. Getting help is no easier! Send an email and they respond 10 hours later. Useless!!

  • cristobalypunto Cristóbal Cortés-Monroy (@cristobalypunto) reported

    @giffgaff Very bad service, I still feel cheated and attention, never overload a package, plan or new recharge before finishing the current one, even if it is expired... Well, they will not be able to use it until the last day of expiration ends. Therein lies the secret to fraud. Sorry!

  • mollyrai Molly 🌻 (@mollyrai) reported

    @giffgaff is your network down in Manchester?

  • Akhlaq1386 Akhlaq Hanif (@Akhlaq1386) reported

    @Mykiel_B @giffgaff No issues in area and I was experiencing issues bit further away from my area so could be handset issue as you mentioned. Thanks 👍🏼

  • Akhlaq1386 Akhlaq Hanif (@Akhlaq1386) reported

    @giffgaff Hi, I've been experiencing issues with calls and 4G for the last 24 hours (just realised it but could be more than that. Working with a quick restart) any issues I should know about?

  • sir_cas Ali Ceessay © (@sir_cas) reported

    @giffgaff My network has disappeared. Network has been intermittent for the past four days. That’s a service I’ve paid that I’m not receiving. #Salisbury #Andover #Tidworth

  • ChrisJo24895371 Chris Jones (@ChrisJo24895371) reported

    @JohnHurst @giffgaff The response I got from their help was to check hardware, reset phone, remove and put sim back in etc. None of which has worked, these pings worked last week, not working now. So I've started a move to another provider. Only been with giffgaff 3 months.
