    @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.

    @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)

    @giffgaff your network in #blackheath is atrocious. I get better signal sitting on a beach in Botswana, what's up with that?

    @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.

    @giffgaff So no customer service and because I tried to simply get a SIM card delivered GiffGaff have offered a refund . Why don’t you just say piss off we don’t want you as a customer?

  • artfulalchemy_
    Andy Roberts (@artfulalchemy_) reported

    @AvonandsomerRob I think there’s a fine line these days between PAYG and rolling contract. For instance is a Giffgaff sim registered in your name and set to auto top up from your bank every month truly PAYG or is it really a rolling contract ? The interesting figures would relate to the amount of PAYG sims that are not registered to a legitimate name and topped up via voucher paid for by cash. While I am sure the above does not automatically mean questionable usage if you could combine that data with number of sims that appear on the network and drop of after a few weeks, maybe a month or so never to be seen again you may have some indication of criminal usage.

    Steve (@alpherah) reported

    @giffgaff They did. They said they can’t deal with device issues and to try using live chat. Which prompts me back to using the form. Endless cycle

  • Simonli127
    Simon (@Simonli127) reported

    @giffgaff @EdisonChu10 You never clearly informed customers of any time limit, such as 14 or 30 days. This is misleading and feels like consumer fraud.
