    @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)

    Hey @giffgaff #DontFundGBNews or i terminate my contract Just sayin.

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

  • manx_maid Stephanie Brooke (@manx_maid) reported

    @giffgaff @O2 The £7 electricity top up at the Coop has got through but the £8 gas has not reached the meter, for the first time ;( Suspect @O2 outage may have something to do with this too. I have to work out how you "key in the vend code" 🤔😬

  • thunderratz ThunderRatz (@thunderratz) reported

    My mum is having so much fun with gifs. She was calling them giffgaffs and telling me how one of her friends doesn't know how to use them but Giffgaff is a mobile service provider. Eventually, I understood what she was on about. I rarely use gifs. I use words. Bloody old people!

    @giffgaff, what's your customer service number again?
