    @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.

  • 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)

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

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

  • macqueendan Daniel MacQueen (@macqueendan) reported from Tottenham, England

  • 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

  • staylowkae baby wasteman. (@staylowkae) reported from London, England

  • 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!

  • 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 🤬😤

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

    @giffgaff and @DHLUSHelp your delivery service is dog shit! Will be using @amazon from now on 👋🏾

  • 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...

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

    @PaulKeeganGino @giffgaff There's a cap of 5gb a month I think. Not too bad unless you're streaming.

  • DjshaxS fkucti (@DjshaxS) reported

    So @giffgaff just took a tenner off me trying to upload a short video which didn't finish uploading before ten pound of credit ran out. Well #giffgaff can füçk right off. Just lost a customer. Crooks.

  • JordannaGoswell jordannaUXresearch (@JordannaGoswell) reported

    @SMARTYMobileUK connection is extremely sluggishly slow this morning. Feels like the data speed is throttled or something. Thank goodness I kept my GiffGaff sim for backup!

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

    @jordanattfield Our agents give a 24-hour timeframe for a response but are usually much quicker than this. Hang tight and one will respond as soon as possible. - giffgaff Dana

  • amandafclark Amanda 🇺🇦🌻 (@amandafclark) reported

    Look @giffgaff thanks for the extra 5gb but i never use the first 5gb. Can’t you do a goodybag plan thats less than £10 and more than £6 ? 1gb is not enough and 15 is too much :(
