    @YPacaud @KikeRJimenez @SMARTYMobileUK @giffgaff Not really. Network coverage is awful. Was with Smarty for 2 months before jacking it in, it was that bad. Even when I (apparently) had 3G, (remember that..) I had no data coverage. Only calls and texts. All I needed was a Nokia 5110 and my time travel was complete!

  • elliepersence ellie 🤍🦋 (@elliepersence) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @giffgaff please reply to your direct messages, it’s bad enough you don’t have online agents and a phone number that I can’t sort this out with

    Getting a LOT (Several a day) calls from Indian people claiming to be from Virgin Media. I'm blocking their numbers as fast as I can and they seem to have billions. I'm junking this number on Monday. Anyone recommend a network that isn't GiffGaff?

  • mtrak_uk mTrak (@mtrak_uk) reported

    Several hours after the problem started, and just about as giffgaff announced that there was an issue, it seems to be resolved.

    @O2 @giffgaff what is going on with the signal in the North Manchester area. Absolutely terrible these last 3 weeks. No service at all at times. Sort it please

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @mr_spoon @giffgaff The exclamation mark means that although there's good signal in your area your phone isn't connected to the network. Going into my phone's settings (Samsung) and resetting my network settings has cured this for me in the past 1/2

  • scathach72003 Skya Mcleod (@scathach72003) reported

    @giffgaff Absolutely DIREservice. My daughter is disabled and we have had NO MOBILE access from our phones for ONE WEEK. Your staff didn't even bother to read the report, instead telling me to 'reset' my phone. ITS TWO PHONES. WE HAVE NO ABILITY TO CALL ANYONE IN AN EMERGENCY. APPALLED.

  • CloudJKay Jon (@CloudJKay) reported

    @scottjorton @O2 Well they can’t give my number back until it’s ported as it is gone from giffgaff. Then I can cancel and Port out. But dead until then

  • andydouglas1967 Andrew Douglas (@andydouglas1967) reported

    Had an email this morning, and a text, from @giffgaff saying it looks like I had trouble sending a text or making a call? I didn't. I haven't called or texted anyone. Someone trying to scam my phone perhaps?

  • Just_Jon_Swift Jonathan Swift (@Just_Jon_Swift) reported

    @1BenBaller @benno44775 @giffgaff Thank you Ben, if only GiffGaff customer service were as helpful, as knowing that would have very quickly resolved the issue. It is day 3 of trying now though, and with only one day until the auto-renewal I don't see much point.
