  • 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...

  • 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 🤬😤

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

    @giffgaff Service was practically unusable around London Bridge station at 5pm yesterday

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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)

  • Agathi0usssss Agathe (@Agathi0usssss) reported from Hackney, England

    Am I the only one having Data issue with @giffgaff ! Every time it says my 3G is on but it doesn’t work at all 😡😡

  • 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!

  • Agathi0usssss Agathe (@Agathi0usssss) reported from Poplar, England

    @giffgaff It’s ain’t working since yesterday afternoon I have tried to disconnect and reconnect it ain’t working and the network seems to be fine where I am right now 😡 I’m paying £25 to have unlimited and right now it isn’t!

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

    @giffgaff I keep running out of credit on my monthly pay as you go plan. Auto top up was enabled leading to x2 charges now my account has run out for the third time. Wifi is turned on, HELP please

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

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

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

  • 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

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

    Never GiffGaff💥

  • 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

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

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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • CumbriaGraham Graham Watson (@CumbriaGraham) reported

    @EatSleepCycle @rogermerriman Other 1/2 uses iphone5c, 2nd hand about 3 yrs ago off giffgaff. New battery (ebay), wasn't 100% confident to fit but worked. Gets frustrated by apps which don't work on old phones. Didn't know Whatsapp is stopping - that may be a problem too far - family and friend connections.

  • AlDuck2 Alison Duckworth (@AlDuck2) reported from Mellor, England

    @giffgaff can someone get back to me pls - my phone just stopped working yesterday, I have no service, goody bag active.

  • donnakean_x Donna ✨ (@donnakean_x) reported

    @giffgaff hi, my data isn’t working this morning in Edinburgh. Have turned phone off/on again, manual roam, etc. but still not working. Can you help?

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

    @KiyleF You just need to select 'continue' under not a member, and follow the on screen instructions. Whenever you're asked for an incident number, you can select 'I don't have an incident number', and then 'Make a complaint' to continue. – giffgaff Ann 2/2

  • mufcjoe69 mufcjoe (@mufcjoe69) reported

    @giffgaff I swear to god giffgaff you are so bad. I can’t get service ANYWHERE and when I do it’s so bad and so laggy I’m sitting in my own home and it’s lagging like why. Goodybag and everything active makes no sense why your network coverage is so bad.

  • dougshaw1 Doug Shaw : Artist and Consultant (@dougshaw1) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    Hey @giffgaff I started using your network just over a year ago. Since switching I frequently experience a loss of internet connection which only re establishes after I turn my phone off and on again. Any ideas why this might be? Thanks in advance.

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

    @EatingAlexaxD Hi there. We've recently fixed issues with a mast in your area, so can you please try switching off your device and then switching it back on again, and see if this helps? - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • Alex05233308 Alex (@Alex05233308) reported

    @giffgaff I wish there was a phone number I could call and solve this issue straight away instead of going back and forward on social media

  • serichards Suzy Richards 🇪🇺 (@serichards) reported

    Well this is annoying. Many of the sites about the different MVNOs said Giffgaff DID support wifi calling. Turns out that is ***** and they don’t 😡 It was shown as being on with Plusnet and they supposedly don’t! It seems a no brainer to have it.

  • jenn_bbygirl89 Jҽɳɳα -乂o 🌻 (@jenn_bbygirl89) reported

    Decent phone networks? @giffgaff seems to be letting me down alot recently. Used to be brilliant at one time.
