  • 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.

  • LadyEkaterina The Everlasting Concubine (@LadyEkaterina) reported from Manchester, England

    @giffgaff Hello lovely giffgaff. I am not a customer but my chum is and he’s run out of data. I would like to buy him some data but I can’t see how to do that. Can you help please?

  • isright Isright (@isright) reported from Runcorn, England

    @MissBrownYork83 @Apple @giffgaff Have you tried Face Timing / Video Calls? Does it worth then? Maybe your phone if it does play up as the network is ok then

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • thestuchy13 Damon (@thestuchy13) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England

    @giffgaff Never that's me 😛🐱

  • SarahLinnett Sarah 💙 Jane 💙 Twiss (@SarahLinnett) reported from Haydock, England

    What is going on with mobile networks at the moment for the last couple of months my signal is so bad @giffgaff and when I say bad I mean non existent can't make phone calls or text

  • 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 😡

  • 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

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

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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @WillBHA58 @giffgaff When a Samsung phone is locked to a network and you insert a different network sim it asks for a "Sim network PIN" (network unlock code). If you enter the wrong PIN 3 times it then asks for SIM network PUK. Only the network it's locked to can supply it for you.

  • gabriellefbrown Gabrielle Brown (@gabriellefbrown) reported

    @giffgaff hi! you sold me a phone which was broken when i turned it on and has ****** itself within a month - fab. I sent off to repair but apparently the repair isnt covered by warranty, fabbbb. and you are charging me MORE THAN THE PHONE COST to fix it. ******* FAB! LOVE THAT

  • bigley_p Paul Bigley (@bigley_p) reported

    @giffgaff network down??

  • glynmottershead Glyn Mottershead (@glynmottershead) reported

    @giffgaff Oh lord above, your system is so arcane I’ve had to go through the process again. This time for a repair - not happening. You’ve sold something wrongly advertised and I’m having to do all the messing. I’d never buy a phone from you again.

  • RichardHesketh1 Richard Hesketh ☯️⚛⚕ Don't Call Him B****s. (@RichardHesketh1) reported

    @giffgaff We have moved to Ribchester. No signal at all. Your app advertises excellent coverage. Nothing. What can we do?

  • technolagnos Georgios A (@technolagnos) reported

    @zoe_bearx Sim only and buy your own phone is just so much cheaper. I'm with Giffgaff for many years now, have saved tons of money. Got my phone's from Amazon, when one broke down they just refunded me, 18 months after I bought it. Incredible!

  • glynmottershead Glyn Mottershead (@glynmottershead) reported

    @giffgaff Wish I’d checked trustpilot first - quite a few issues flagged on there. Turns out speaker is missing. Absolutely shocking

  • manx_maid Stephanie Brooke (@manx_maid) reported

    @giffgaff . . will have to investigate why, as for once not signal problems. A good job I have a lot of downloaded pdfs I still need to read . .

  • ingridboring Ingrid (@ingridboring) reported

    @ctimmermann @asda_mobile @giffgaff Giffgaff is fantastic, been on it since 2010 would never go back

  • StuartD91164836 Stuart Davis (@StuartD91164836) reported

    @giffgaff failed to respond to an order query. Left out of pocket without a response from your customer service despite best efforts to contact you and fix the issue. Thanks for the additional stress and financial difficulty during a difficult time.
