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

  • catskidschaos Karen Reekie (@catskidschaos) reported from Richmond, England

    If you have to clear your cache and log out then log back in but you can’t click on an e mail link and have to go via a browser to access a service on a website it’s a bit crap. Looks at @giffgaff and mutters about giving up and not bothering to continue with the thing I need...

  • Loucathwil ☃️🎄🦌loucathwil🧵✂️🧸 (@Loucathwil) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    R.e. the @giffgaff phone app, it NEVER remembers my password, and neither do I, as I'm always forced to add capital letters and other details I will never remember. Please make your services more accessible to those of us with neurological handicaps xx #neurodiversesquad

  • TheGaffaSM Prince Vegeta (@TheGaffaSM) reported from Merton, England

    Never GiffGaff💥

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • LashanStuff Lashan (@LashanStuff) reported from Camberwell, England

    @giffgaff There wasn't, the network just slows down to a crawl/stops functioning from congestion levels that are literally a daily occurrence there

  • 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

  • Ryanclairmont 🅡🅨🅐🅝 (@Ryanclairmont) reported from Ilford, England

    Really not good enough, since Thursday got a goodybag sim for my daughter & it's still not working till now,you should haul all sales of sims till the issues are fix. #ofcom #cisas #ombudsmanservice #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)

  • 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 🤬😤

  • 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!

  • nealdcruz Neal D'Cruz (@nealdcruz) reported from Bromley, England

    @giffgaff hi, need to cancel my account but cannot log in. Can someone assist. Thx

  • jordanrevell Jordan Revell (@jordanrevell) reported from Camden Town, England

    @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.

  • jetsettersw Alvin (@jetsettersw) reported from Lambeth, England

  • Unmanzigo james (@Unmanzigo) reported

    @hattiecooke @giffgaff Refurb obviously doesn`t include switching it on , what a rubbish service.

  • arrjayyess Rob Smith (@arrjayyess) reported

    @giffgaff hey guys. I replaced a sim for my dad who moved from an iPhone 5 to a Samsung today. It says I’ve successfully activated the new sim but I’m not getting signal yet whereas his old phone with his old sim still is. It’s been about an hour. How long does it usually take?

  • joshwn1 joshwn (@joshwn1) reported

    Love how most phone companies have a normal robot voicemail and then there’s giffgaff who’s got some random northern block shouting down the phone. Ever sad? Call someone with giffgaff and hope they don’t answer

  • ScopeyMopey Not Scope Fish (@ScopeyMopey) reported

    @GUILD_Galaxy @noahreyli giffgaff wtf bro

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

    @lucytheverb Hi Lucy. We're so sorry to hear that you're having problems with your voicemail. Are you unable to listen to your voicemail messages, or are your calls not directing to voicemail? - giffgaff Emer.

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

    @Unsalted_Rhino That's strange. Are you experiencing this issue when you try to log in, or before attempting to log in? If after you try to log in, please use your mobile number instead of your membername and vice versa. Also attempt to reset your password. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • TooMuchManga TooMuchManga (@TooMuchManga) reported

    @_sh1opan Giffgaff is probably the cheapest and you don't need a contract. But check signal with local residents. Probably still Ikea Argos/Curries/Amazon... I guess wherever really. As the generic brands See above for washing machine. The DFS Sale still going STRONG

  • petermorris1878 Peter Morris (@petermorris1878) reported

    @NubiBlue @rafathetoffee I got stopped. I had the nhs passport in my wallet so it was fine. But those needing the internet were screwed. There is no signal at GP particularly the O2 network, which includes Giffgaff.

  • jkhan762 jk94 (@jkhan762) reported

    @giffgaff my giffgaff mobile data hasn't been working for the past few days, is there some maintenance going on or is it just a downgrade in service? Can you let me know asap otherwise I will have to switch networks as I'm paying £25 a month for mobile data and it doesn't work.

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

    @Saifsofficial Oh no, Saif. We're so sorry about this. Can you please drop us a DM with your full post code, so we can check for any issues? - giffgaff Tasbiya
