    @ThreeUK Data is as ‘okay’ if you could ever get a signal but then prices got crazy. What a nightmare giving notice was - the call operators just won’t give in and let you simply cancel. Moved to @giffgaff and been happy ever since. @giffgaff you are awesome.

    @emmagabarda @giffgaff Hopefully your number has transferred over now, but it's always worth restarting your phone periodically which can help complete the process.

    @monaghp Hi Paul. Unfortunately, giffgaff does not support eSIM's at the moment but maybe in the future. Only O2, Vodafone and EE support eSIM's at this time - giffgaff Nicole

    @xanlam @EE Switch to Giffgaff. It’s cheaper and their customer service is better. 🤫

    @giffgaff I have no gsm signal and internet in hole UK. New card does not working properly around UK as well. Bought goody bag and can't use it.

  • 1BenBaller Ben Baller (@1BenBaller) reported

    @luetchyboy @giffgaff Have you tried turning on/off airplane mode to see if that resets your network connection?

  • talonfast Talon Fast (@talonfast) reported

    @MammothWhale Other providers will be the same, as they’ll rely on Openreach to actually configure the connection. A good temporary solution would be a VOXI or Giffgaff prepaid SIM card, and putting it in a cheap 4G router. You can get them on Amazon for about £60-70
