    @SkyHelpTeam I've had internet dropouts for the past 3-4 days, up to 4 times per day, plus dropouts often in the last year. It nearly jeopardized my life changing doctors appointment held over zoom today, often times my giffgaff 4g mobile data is faster, I need a solution.

  • GracialNation gracialnation (@GracialNation) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff my SIM in my dongle says I’m connected but my laptop is saying the network can’t be joined. It just stopped working a few days ago and now just won’t join!

  • ric_mc ric (@ric_mc) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff my network is very poor since yesterday night and today in this morning is not working at all. sometimes I even got no network. using most of the time at Limehouse and Stoke Newton areas. My phone is an iPhone 12 (trying to) using 5G

  • sofiloco Sofi Summers (@sofiloco) reported from Hackney, 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 🤬😤

  • ric_mc ric (@ric_mc) reported from Hackney, England

    @giffgaff Morning! I just pop up a new 5G plan on my iPhone 12 but seems it’s not working for me even after I have set to work on 5G on my phone settings

  • kiers__ Unotheactivist (@kiers__) reported from Islington, England

    @RafaFerdinand1 @MrSir____ @Sahveeyo @_euanito Sir you connected to GiffGaff so doh try that shit

  • Mr_MartinCalder Mr Martin Calder (@Mr_MartinCalder) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @EE Giffgaff has unlimited everything for £35 and even that is very expensive and crazy for the price in the current day’s we are living networks need to help their customers

  • djrowsam DJ Rowland Samuel (@djrowsam) reported from Paddington, England

    @MissyMissyJ I had a similar problem....but it was with Giffgaff (who use the O2 network as well)

  • 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)

  • DrJennyVaughan jenny vaughan (@DrJennyVaughan) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @giffgaff sort out your ageist “customer care” approach & call & help my 77 year old mum. You don’t even help me to help her you just send us a barrage of data red tape we can’t deal with. This is how elderly people are marginalised by #giffgaff they just won’t make that call.

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

    @giffgaff trying to activate a sim for my mum, payment isn't being accepted. Can you please help

  • endaguinan Enda Guinan (@endaguinan) reported from Islington, England

    @O2 I’m with GiffGaff. Usually no issues with Mesia messages in any direction, but when it happens, I’m curious about this type of message. It says here’s your message, but there’s no link or attachment.

  • 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.

  • Benjakev jason k (@Benjakev) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PoliceConsumer @giffgaff Been on giffgaff since they launched, cheapest and most reliable network I’ve ever used

  • tainkirrahe 🔥 ᴛʜᴇ ʟɪᴇᴠ sᴄʜʀᴇɪʙᴇʀ ᴏғ ᴄʀᴏᴄʜᴇᴛ - vangelus (@tainkirrahe) reported

    ugggghhhhHHH so it looks like the work phone I've been bought doesn't work with giffgaff sims, would have been nice to maaaybe mention that on the product page argos?!

  • ayoung140_ann Youngannie (@ayoung140_ann) reported

    @giffgaff @CapitalOfficial @CapitalXTRA How do I report fraud! What a useless network??

  • ctrlitt christo (@ctrlitt) reported

    @giffgaff just gone to giffgaff and ordered a golden goodybag so I can use 5g ,topped it up to them find out I need a 5g sim card as well as you sent a 4g sim when I chose the goldengoody bad for 4g so now I've just wasted money on a number I won't be using .

  • chizcw Chisel (@chizcw) reported

    I've heard mention that O2 uses the VirginMedia (fibre) network ... is this true? If so could it explain why a three day (and counting) VM outage coincides with shockingly bad mobile data on giffgaff (aka O2 network)?

  • mocc_night megs . space (@mocc_night) reported

    @triceratops1892 @ThreeUK it's worth using giffgaff instead - I pay £10 a month for unlimited everything, 10GB data and rly good signal (monthly) - can be cancelled anytime for free - lmk if you want a referral link for free credit towards ur first month <3

  • till_the_wheels 𝕵𝖚𝖌𝖘 (@till_the_wheels) reported

    @giffgaff @02 when are you going to fix the phone signal in Nunhead and Peckham? It must be two years it hasn't been working now. My work phones on 02 and personal on giffgaff and I support vulnerable adults in Peckham, and your negligence is affecting that support.

  • GuyEmerson Guy Emerson (@GuyEmerson) reported

    @giffgaff received my 5G sim and it says login and push the activate my sim button but there isn’t one. Please advise.

  • RedshawAmanda Amanda Bogdanovich (@RedshawAmanda) reported

    @MatthewIkwuama2 @Mykiel_B @giffgaff I also am having this problem today

  • KateMaffin Kate (@KateMaffin) reported

    Hey @giffgaff. I’ve had a few issues recently with someone using my phone number. I’ve got a new sim now and a new number but is there a way to disconnect the old one to prevent it being used again?
