I've had no coverage at all with giff gaff all day today….have been on the giff gaff website - no reported problems for this area - and not found the community particularly helpful. Know there are other GGers here, wondering if anyone else is having trouble today?

Check the O2 status where you are instead, Giff Gaff use their network.

You've turned the phone off and on again I assume?

Have you got an old phone you can try the SIM in, narrow down whether it's a phone or a network issue?

Oof, I'd be ringing the ISP at the very least before buying a new phone!

I mean like a £10 nokia type non smart phone thingy….. I need a spare anyway and want to try sim in another handset. Not giving up on my new smart phone just yet! It's giff gaff, there is no one to ring as far as I can see. Just wondered if any other giffgaffers here were having trouble as well….

I can check tomorrow whether there's any maintenance going on in the area.

New phone, you say? I'd definitely be getting on to them.

No probs in Andover area. Did have a software update from Giff Gaff last week that now has them as service provider rather than O2 showing on the phone (iPhone).
