    @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.

  • SimonScottuk Simon Scott (@SimonScottuk) reported from Penwortham, England

    @Alichat66 a good service provider firm is GiffGaff a good reasonably priced phone, but capable is WileyFox

    @giffgaff guys for the last month or so, I’ve been getting 1 Bar 3G. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. I’m on the £20 quid a month plan, and I’ve not been burning through my data. I’ve messed around with network selection, but that’s not helping. Barely usable

  • toddbridgland Todd Bridgland (@toddbridgland) reported

    @giffgaff Are we able to check that he actually received the top ups and how they were spent. It seems like all the credit was spent. I can't believe he went through £50 in 4 days. Any help you can offer would be awesome. I can give you his phone number, username etc if needed.
