    @WilliamNB @giffgaff If it works elsewhere and other networks work then yes switch to one that works. But maybe don't pick another provider that uses O2 network.

    @gazza_d @KarlOnSea @girodilento I did hear that you are further down the priority list for bandwidth congestion with giffgaff than O2. (Also in a macho - mine is bigger than yours kind of way, I have more data than you are allowed buy, 40GB. Travelling a lot these days)

    I ordered an iPad SIM from @O2 - and was sent a SIM that used a @giffgaff number (which doesn't work). O2 won't sort it out because it's a Giffgaff number - unbelievable!

  • catticusrex49 stella 🌍💜 she/her (@catticusrex49) reported

    Wow, my 4g is incredibly slow in central Manchester atm... For the past few days even basic websites have slowed to a crawl. What gives @giffgaff @O2 ?

  • stevo0611 Steven (@stevo0611) reported

    @ThatsDoubleA If 5G access is part of your plan and you’re not getting it Id contact giffgaff as you’ll be paying for it within your monthly fee...it could be they only have access to certain areas of 5G within o2s network

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

    @neslurt It could also be that there is an issue with the mast in that area, and it hasn't been updated yet. We would recommend that you check and re try the troubleshooting steps tomorrow, and see how you get on. - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • Liamjetset Liam (@Liamjetset) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Counting down the days to ending my @ThreeUK contract (after 9 yrs). No loyalty to customers. Sim only with @giffgaff looks good.
