Balance N/A Issue [02/02/2012] Resolved.

[#1]

Good afternoon,

We're aware again of a wide scale issue where customers may be seeing "Balance N/A" or other Goodybag in their "My Giffgaff" page if they were due to have a queued goodybag start today.

What's going on?

Customers in the situation above (not all) will see their account as "Balance N/A", "Goodybags updating" or similar Goodybag messaging in their account this morning.

This will affect the following transactions:

-Queuing future Goodybags.

-Topping up.

However: your goodybag will have been applied and should be working correctly

Who does this affect?

At the moment, we are attempting to narrow down the scope, but believe this is for members who were due to have a queued goodybag start today.

What are you doing about it?

Our technical team is currently investigating this as a matter of priority. We'll come back on this thread with updates as soon as we have them.

I believe I'm affected - what should I do?

Please don't raise an Agent case if you believe you are affected - any fix we put through will be a bulk fix, and therefore won't need individual Agent cases at this time.

Thanks for your patience here and apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Kind regards,

Joe

Hi all, 

Those of you that had goodybags due to expire on 1st and still seeing messages such as "Balance N/A", "Goodybags updating" or similar Goodybag messaging in their account should raise a case with an agent or respond to an existing one. 

Some of you had issues with goodybags that were due to expire on the 2nd. There has been a delay in the displaying of this on several account but the update is happening and will update. If you had a goodybag qeued, you should still have the value on your phone and you will be able to use it for calls, texts, data etc. Your account will be correct later today  at around 17.00pm

Please note: If you had a goodybag qeued  to start and your airtime balance is going down, you should please contact an agent regarding this.

Thank you for your patience

Hi everyone,

If you are still experiencing this issue, can you please contact an agent and let them know:

• What issue you are having
• Wether you had a queued goodybag and when it was due to start
• Are you able to make calls/textx or use data
• Are your calls, texts, data charging your airtime credit rather than the goodybag that you had qeued 

Many thanks

Thanks for the update

[#7]

Just to clarify, I'm affected and I don't have a queued goodybag starting today; I've had a goodybag running for a couple of days but have "no active goodybags" and balance n/a when I log in.

[#8]

I'm also affected and don't have a goodybag queued, or any goodybag at all, I just have about £10 credit. I have just recently joined though, and transfered my number (which seems to be working but not showing up correctly in the dash).

[#9]

I'm the same, my number transferred over yesterday and I'm waiting to add a goody bag to my account. So seems to be an issue for newcomers.

[#10]

I should also say that I recently joined too and had my number ported over yesterday.

[#11]

Thanks, due to queue a goodybag but guess i just have to wait.

[#12]

My goodybag is now active but my £0.19 balance is missing. Is this a related issue?

[#13]

I don't have one queued but am unable to buy one at the moment my giffgaff page is saying "We are updating your goodybags" and if I try and buy one it says I can only top-up my balance. Very frustrating!
