  • 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 😡

  • C17Y_CJ Chris (@C17Y_CJ) reported from Bury, England

    @giffgaff my sons phone signal has totally disappeared. I can’t ring him, it’s not even going to answerphone. His WiFi is all ok though. Can you help?

  • 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.

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

    @oasismark @SkyUK @giffgaff Both use O2 network so it should be fine.

  • C17Y_CJ Chris (@C17Y_CJ) reported from Bury, England

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

    @giffgaff I have narrowed down the problem. When i go into radcliffe within a certain perimiter its total internet blackout. When i. Come out it returns as if there was no problem. Im a taxi driver. I have never had any issue like this with all the years ive been with you. My Three

  • 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.

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

    @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.

    Why is greater regulation important to protect consumers, especially during economic downturns? A thread on the ongoing poor experience I’m suffering having moved mobile network providers (from @VodafoneUK to @giffgaff).

  • HollySearle1 Holly Searle AKA The Subversive Stitcher (@HollySearle1) reported

    hey @giffgaff I'm in east London (Tower Hamlets/Hackney) and was expecting a very important phone call but it looks like there is some outage? I asked two people to phone me and it says "it has not been possible to connect". I can't phone anybody either.

  • DavesInfosec Dave (@DavesInfosec) reported

    @giffgaff Tried to DM you but not working. works to others on Twitter.

  • nickofmn0506 Nick Oliver 🇬🇧 (@nickofmn0506) reported

    @giffgaff and @O2 seems that this is not the best network for use on a canal away from civilization. Can anyone recommend a more reliable network that may want some promotion on my other profile and social media as I continue my lone canal journey. I don't mind advertising

  • greenrascal_ Mike Green (@greenrascal_) reported

    @giffgaff @scotttucker1217 Same problem @giffgaff customer service is so bad. Every other phone company has live chat. Giffgaff needs 24 hours?

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

    @TurinTest No we have not received your DM, we shall check if there's an issue with this. In the meantime please send your postcode publicly. - giffgaff Ann

  • nickofmn0506 Nick Oliver 🇬🇧 (@nickofmn0506) reported

    @giffgaff I think after a week of no network coverage you now tell me I have used up all my data....it is time to quit Giffgaff and find a more reliable provider for my journey on the canal. I would have advertised you to my followers on the other platforms if you had been better
