    @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)

    @giffgaff @JebbleG Sadly that rules you out for us. Our mobile signal at home is at best one bar so wifi calling is essential. Voxi have given less than a months notice that they are removing EU roaming due to ‘costs’ but refuse to reduce our plan price to compensate.

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

    @question_dog We can appreciate how frustrating this is for you, with having no service since activating your SIM. Please be assured we are working as hard as possible to resolve this issue and have your service resume, we just don't have an exact time frame for this. - giffgaff Jeanette

    @SigniusNetworks Okay, thanks for checking that. If you're using an android device, there should also be a disable network toggle that will stop notifications every time you pass a Wi-Fi hotspot - giffgaff Nicole

  • quokkawa hyunjin’s sia (@quokkawa) reported

    @libbysmenu @giffgaff WTF IS THIS

  • HarryBarnes Harry Barnes 🥾🌍 (@HarryBarnes) reported

    @WhichUK One question, the ratings seem based on customer satisfaction. How can a customer of EE rate network reliability... reliably, versus any other network? You have GiffGaff on 5 stars, O2 on 3 stars, despite pointing out O2 providing service for GiffGaff on the page before?

  • JMvanderBergh John Milan (@JMvanderBergh) reported

    @giffgaff So again the same issue, even tho I HAD activated recurring goodybag somehow my credit was spent. Really not cool @giffgaff, that's £10 in total that went into thin air. Seriously thinking about filing a formal complaint.

  • FoxKelah Kelah Fox (@FoxKelah) reported

    @giffgaff please help, I've have topped up £10.00 this morning 08.02am and have recieved a text message (14.04pm) saying that I have no mins and no £10.00 goody bag. Where has my credit gone, please help.

  • itsPipper Pipper the Springer (@itsPipper) reported

    @TeaganTheDog Giffgaff is phone service provider, a MVNO using the O2 network. I don't think they have contracts like networks themselves do.

  • DrChemistryEmz Emma (@DrChemistryEmz) reported

    @EverydayKnitter It’s very annoying?! We get 4G here but I’ve got absolutely nothing, not sure when it last connected? It’s giffgaff (so O2) and Si has network so not sure what’s wrong 😬

  • SigniusNetworks Signius (@SigniusNetworks) reported

    @giffgaff is there a way to disable these really annoying alerts to connect O2 WiFi hotspot every bloody time I drive past one of enter a shop like Sainsbury's that provides these? Or has this crap been hard coded into O2s network & SIM cards ergo GiffGaff ??
