  • 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.

  • Sunalunafish Suna 🕊 (@Sunalunafish) reported

    @giffgaff Which is why I was trying to contact sn agent on my account so I got more than basic problem solving but your having an issue loading the agent page, all other giffgaff website pages load.

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

    @Sunalunafish There seems to be an issue with our Ask an Agent service at the minute Suna, but our engineers are aware of the issue and are working hard to get this resolved ASAP. Please can you try this again later this evening, so that we can investigate things further - giffgaff Jade

  • SpeedbirdFan A Happy Speedbird Fan (@SpeedbirdFan) reported

    @giffgaff Hi there... Setting up a giffgaff for my father and despite the the activation process going through, he's not able to make any calls - can you help, please? He's on a pay as you go plan

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

    @SpeedbirdFan Hi. It can take up to 24 hours from activation for the services to be fully up and running. During this time we recommend that you reboot the phone off and on again a few times, to help speed this up - giffgaff Jade

  • Sunalunafish Suna 🕊 (@Sunalunafish) reported

    @giffgaff I have reset, I have checked my apn thingy. I have already done the simple problem solves but theres still an issue connecting to the carrier.

  • BigBut5 Big But 5 (@BigBut5) reported

    @giffgaff Are you planing on adding visual voice mail any time soon? Just joined your network and think I might be leaving at the end of the month if not, calling the voice mail is SUCH a pain in comparison.

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

    @cacaannex Hi Cat, if your iPad is unlocked our SIM cards should work with no issues. - giffgaff Megan

  • 54JohnBull John Bull (@54JohnBull) reported

    @softlads Find GiffGaff quite good. Piggy backing on O2 network.

  • callumorphism Callum Rogers (@callumorphism) reported

    @MartinSLewis Please note that price alone for a virtual network does not take priority into account. Example: giffgaff is a virtual network provider on O2's network. But the moment that there is contention (lots of people using it), O2 will give their own direct customers priority. 1/2

  • HelenKathTom Helen K Tomlinson (@HelenKathTom) reported

    @MartinSLewis £6 per month with giffgaff because it's good service and community
