    @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)

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

    @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.

    @hellofergus Your SIM Card will be disconnected unless, at least once every six months, your account is used to, a) make at least one call, SMS or MMS to another number (not including calls to emergency services or Member Services); - giffgaff Ann 1/2

  • CH41N Chain (@CH41N) reported

    @RetroResolution @VodafoneUK How about Giffgaff? It's on the O2 network, and has reasonable deals, you can set monthly plans and have a little credit in case you think you might go over. I left three UK after 9 years as they couldn't get me a good deal.

  • thomas5919 Thomas Rosser (@thomas5919) reported

    @giffgaff why is ur network so slow and why are we paying £25 for 50kb.

  • whiteroserachel Ravishing Rachel (@whiteroserachel) reported

    Very impressed with Jeanette from @giffgaff, in less than an hour from me tweeting about the problem I've been having donating to charity via "text to donate" that left me with inadequate credit they've added £1 to my account to allow me to make my last donation to @MindCharity.

    @SevenVIIGames We're very sorry about that. It may be that the tracking information hasn't been updated as yet. If this doesn't update soon, please send us a DM and we can help get this tracked for you. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • harlequin_1963 Gary Mackenzie (@harlequin_1963) reported

    @giffgaff i left EE over a year ago due to poor service and lack of support. ( transmitter on maintenance for 2 years so no reliable 4g service) GiffGaff gives me a full 4g signal indoors , 100GB a month data and that costs me £20.00 for golden goodybag.

  • XvYhi6 A H M E D 𖤐. (@XvYhi6) reported

    @giffgaff I received my SIM from giffgaff. I have a problem to activate the SIM. I forgot the name of the membership and I was not able to activate the SIM. Please help me in another way to activate the SIM

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

    @fleming77 We're very sorry to hear this Jane. A SIM swap can take up to 24 hours, so if this was only completed, this may be why you're unable to use your new SIM. We can see you've already been speaking with our agents, so please update your case for further help. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • xvampwitchx michelle flavell (@xvampwitchx) reported

    @giffgaff are you experiencing problems today as my husband can't make or receive call or txt messages

  • MonsieurBrulee Monsieur Brûlée (@MonsieurBrulee) reported

    @EcotalkMobile OK. I've requested an unlocking code from GiffGaff. I presume that I don't need to be connected to a network to enable this as I can't connect to anybody at present. Who can I talk to if it doesn't work?
