    Bitten the bullet and ordered a new phone direct from apple, an iPhone 12 mini, going for closing o2 account and paying old phone off as their customer service are crap and I’ve had nothing but issues with them. I’m off with a giffgaff sim only deal so I’m not as tied in. #sorted

  • caleb84418080 caleb (@caleb84418080) reported

    @giffgaff I need your help to unlock my new phone because my giffgaff sim don’t work in it

  • BrazenDwarf7402 Ray 💙 (@BrazenDwarf7402) reported

    When did @giffgaff change their voicemail message? When I was a customer they had a nice soothing Geordie accent. I'm calling a lot of giffgaff users as part of a project I'm doing atm...

  • till_the_wheels 𝕵𝖚𝖌𝖘 (@till_the_wheels) reported

    @giffgaff You've had two years to help. From here on in it's all about bringing you and O2 down.

  • earthswood David Whomes (@earthswood) reported

    @giffgaff can you point me in the right direction to speak to someone people are unable to phone me but can text. Unfortunately your help page is a bit confusing

  • WrecklessGamer Booker Dewitt 😀 (@WrecklessGamer) reported

    After 2 years of pain with EE and terrible reception at home (calls always dropping) my contract is up and am of to Giffgaff where I know my signal is awesome as that's what my kids have. £15 for 15GB should do the trick and if not, it's monthly so can get 80GB for £20 👍

  • Monsieur_Green Craig Green (@Monsieur_Green) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks Ann, it's already on it's way back cheers. The fault with this one is that the microphone doesn't work. So you can't make calls/facetime anything really. You would think that would be part of the full testing procedure to be honest.

  • LoganBanks2 Logan Banks (@LoganBanks2) reported

    @EE Anyone joining EE needs their head checking. Crap customer service. Poor loyalty scheme (with them for 5 years and still wanted money for upgrade) non competitive deals. Do what I did and join @giffgaff

  • Smiffy1890 Brent Smith (@Smiffy1890) reported

    @giffgaff quick question, why would I buy a £10 goodybag that has 6gb of data, when I could buy a £10 golden goodybag that has 9gb data? I don't have a 5g phone so does this golden one support 4g use?
