  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    I didn’t want to change mobile provider. But I was told this was the only way I could keep my service bill at a level I could afford. I was very happy with the PAYG service I had from @giffgaff, and did not want to change, but it was that or a surcharge.

  • AntBonney Anthony Bonney (@AntBonney) reported from Bolton, England

    My WiFi goes down so much it's unbelievable, Didn't have this much trouble with #Sky. @virginmedia get your act together, thank the lord for @giffgaff 4g.

    @giffgaff never had a problem.. Today im having a big problem. No internet. I use as part of my business. Yes i have data in my goody bag.

  • AdrianBeeby Adrian H Beeby (@AdrianBeeby) reported from Chorley, England

    @ThreeUK Data is as ‘okay’ if you could ever get a signal but then prices got crazy. What a nightmare giving notice was - the call operators just won’t give in and let you simply cancel. Moved to @giffgaff and been happy ever since. @giffgaff you are awesome.

  • Orko77 Jenny (@Orko77) reported from Manchester, England

    So glad my backup unlimited @giffgaff data has expired just in time for @virginmedia to go down. Sod's law. #FirstWorldProblems

  • Annihilatorlee Lee andrews (@Annihilatorlee) reported from Bury, England

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Anyone got issues with giffgaff?

  • MissMcLovin84 Nicola McGee (@MissMcLovin84) reported from Manchester, England

    @giffgaff absolute disgusting service from yourselves and the repair team. Informing us by letter that my 12 year old had damaged his phone - does this go for my Dad with the same phone, he is 66 years old. Couldn't admit responsibility, think trading standards 😡

  • matthewpennell Matthew Pennell (@matthewpennell) reported

    @RoyalMail Your "Create a returns label" service isn't working properly - every time I fill in the form and submit it, it returns an error. Can you fix it so I can return something to @giffgaff since they don't provide an actual return address, please?

  • jamesgibson279 James Gibson (@jamesgibson279) reported

    @giffgaff Been there done that a dozen times, same outcome, you say reset phone settings and that there’s not an issue in our area ( but there obviously is) everywhere else but our town it’s fine.

  • meade_shannon Shannon Marie Meade (@meade_shannon) reported

    @giffgaff hi! Can someone from giffgaff fix the broken manage repayments links? It’s faulty on ALL pages and I’ve not had a response to my comment last week yet. Thanks!!

  • CBarrett1994 C Barrett (@CBarrett1994) reported

    Still unable to make a call @giffgaff, website claims issues with a phone mast but only affecting Internet coverage...

  • CrispHarriet Harriet Crisp (@CrispHarriet) reported

    Hi my phone is displaying no service despite there being service on another Giffgaff phone. I can’t log in to my account to see if there’s a problem there as I’ve forgotten my password and the reset link isn’t coming through to my email. Can you help? @giffgaff

  • BritRight CentreRightBrit (@BritRight) reported

    @thebritishertwi My question is. Is it across the board? I know that Virgin Media and GiffGaff have the filters on automatically but which ISP's and mobile network providers don't and what is their reasoning behind it?

  • FletchyTweets Fletch 😀 (@FletchyTweets) reported

    @tescomobile Hi. Having a few issues. Moved from Giffgaff who also used 02, had a full very fast 5g signal. Now I have 4g+. I have your 5G sim and everything is tuned on in my phone, I'm lost. I was told I would get the same as Giffgaff because you also use o2. 5g is in my area.

  • jamesgibson279 James Gibson (@jamesgibson279) reported

    @giffgaff still no service but of course there’s not an issue in our area as usual

  • jamesgibson279 James Gibson (@jamesgibson279) reported

    @virginmedia Tried to direct message several times but keeps failing as I’ve no WiFi and barely a mobile signal thanks to giffgaff

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @meade_shannon @giffgaff The links have been broken for months with no action from giffgaff to fix them,if you need information on your loan it's best to contact either Ratesetter or Klarna directly depending on which one your loan is with.
