    @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?

  • 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

  • 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.

  • RangeHeating R🔥nge Heating (@RangeHeating) reported from Stockport, England

    @giffgaff Doesn’t get to the root of the problem though. And it doesn’t help prevent it happening to others who may not be as savvy and may fall for it. @Ofcom

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

  • mac_plastic PlasticMac (@mac_plastic) reported

    @giffgaff It's now 14 days since I activated my replacement SIM. Still not connected to the giffgaff network! Last I heard, "the engineers are working on it ..." and that was last week ...

  • ToxicAngel84 🌸Just Nicki 💨💚✌🏻 (@ToxicAngel84) reported

    Does anyone else have trouble with @giffgaff agents not reading your question and just sending generic email responses with links you’ve already tried??

  • ssbib85 Salford Citizen (@ssbib85) reported

    @giffgaff any plans to introduce WiFi calling? I live under power lines and nobody can ever hear me on a call. It’s been this way forever and is the same on my work phone/network as well.

  • ryanbestford rb (@ryanbestford) reported

    @chimenesuleyman I use GiffGaff. Sim only. Rolling monthly contract. Cheap. Runs on O2 network. I have never used a swear word in the same sentence as GiffGaff, unlike three and Vodafone.

  • jimm2525 james fleming (@jimm2525) reported

    @giffgaff whats going on with your network the last two days have been terrible, thats the last time i pay for unlimited data, haven't been able to load a simple web site??

  • theblubster theblubster 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@theblubster) reported

    @Suse_Susie @VodafoneGroup @GBNEWS Giffgaff SIM only deals for me. Never been let down yet, and the prices are reasonable.

  • jessiemay1909 Jessie-May⚡️❤️ (@jessiemay1909) reported

    @giffgaff hi, I’ve had a nightmare trying to top up and it wouldn’t let me start a new goodybag early so I added credit to my account which I’ve done before but now the options have changed and I can no longer start a goodybag of £35 early. Can you help me please

  • faramog faramog (@faramog) reported

    @JanKay_ @VodafoneUK @GBNEWS Well done Jan I remember a call from Sky when I cancelled after the phone hacking... Poor operator was calling no end doing the same... Never had anything to do with them since I moved to GiffGaff... Essentially O2 network but a lot cheaper and more flexible... Can recommend

  • microfichetacos emerson 🇪🇺 🌈 (@microfichetacos) reported

    @Kamaljeetgill @chimenesuleyman Definitely giffgaff. They use the O2 network but offer SIM-only plans that are ludicrously cheap - I'm on a £10 per month tariff and get something absurd like 10gb of data which I never manage to use up!

  • JohnConnorM John (@JohnConnorM) reported

    @chimenesuleyman I quite like Giffgaff (runs on O2 network) purely because they have very cheap options of SIM only that are monthly so you aren't tied down to a 18 month contract or whatever.
