  • DrJennyVaughan jenny vaughan (@DrJennyVaughan) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @giffgaff sort out your ageist “customer care” approach & call & help my 77 year old mum. You don’t even help me to help her you just send us a barrage of data red tape we can’t deal with. This is how elderly people are marginalised by #giffgaff they just won’t make that call.

  • Love_SE4 @Love_SE4💙 (@Love_SE4) reported from London, England

  • peter_lord Сер Пітер Лорд 🇺🇦 😎🇬🇧🇪🇺🌍 (@peter_lord) reported

    @Binzyi @KellyQuilt Wrt 2.: They don't. They let customers ask how to do things on Giffgaff or to describe any problems they've had with the service, and other customers often supply the answers. Frankly, I've found it to "just work" after a little initial settling-in, but it's not for everyone.

  • katfpoole Kat Poole (@katfpoole) reported

    @giffgaff Hiya, I’ve just changed networks and although my phone shows 4G I cant get any coverage. I really need to use my phone while I’m out - can you help please?

  • Mayajose83Maya Maya Francis (@Mayajose83Maya) reported

    @giffgaff I had ordered for two sims last Friday (June 3) . I have not yet received the same. When I contacted customer service , I was asked to buy another. So what would happen to £16 that I paid for them. It’s already being taken from my account

  • Mykiel_B MikeKAB (@Mykiel_B) reported

    @lrl014 @giffgaff Hi. Yes you can. You are allowed 20gig max data usage per goodybag in a 63 days period. Dont buy a goodybag bigger than 20GB for EU/EEA usage. Reason is after 20GB data will cost 0.36p/MB and u’ll still not be able to start a new goodybag early until it’s down to 100 MB or below.

    @FXKT_GEIST Oh dear, that's not good. Can you please drop us a DM with your full post code, so we can check for any issues? - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • WolfieSmiffed Del-4Ri (@WolfieSmiffed) reported

    EE 4g tower that covers my flat is down *again* so mobile will not work there. Am in the park rn to get signal. After it happened last time I switched mobile internet provision to Giffgaff/O2 and for a month that's been fine. That too is now not working. **** my digital life.
