Unable to send messages or make calls?

I just put my new SIM in my phone yesterday, I could send texts ok up until an hour ago.  I now can't send tetxs - I can receive from non giff gaff users (my son also on giff gaff can't send to me but my husband on vidafone can?), and I can't make any phone calls? it pops up and syas something about conditional forwarding when I make a call and then rings off before making a connection? - any ideas? My top up is valid until way into September?

Re: Unable to send messages or make calls?

The network is down, hopefully the problem is being worked on and everything will be fixed soon. I suppose you will just have to wait it out.

The network was down for around 30 mins earlier.  Please can you confirm if your problem has been sorted out

Re: Unable to send messages or make calls?

so the network was down - why isn't something posted on the front page of the giff gaff website to tell us this?  or is it elsewhere on the site?

Oh, I didn't notice anything (but then don't look at phone all the time so could have easily missed it)
