    @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.

  • ejtheginger EJ (@ejtheginger) reported from Blackburn, England

    Tales of Mother: So my mum calls me up and asks me to 'fix her phone'. What she means is that she has a second phone she wants everything transferring to, and has got the pak code for her to take her number to GiffGaff. I rock up...

    @giffgaff hi I am being charged from yourselves but I am not with your network

  • SaaidiAbdullah Abdullah Saaidi (@SaaidiAbdullah) reported

    @giffgaff No particular thing. GiffGaff charges huge amount of money if the package ended few days earlier. Very difficult to communicate with customer service ( last time I submitted a request and received a response next day). I prefer to ba able to call rather than just typing.

  • vikki_price Vikki Price (@vikki_price) reported

    @giffgaff please tell me how To cancel with you? I got SIM card simply to check lock position on handset and paid £6, set up an account online with details but cannot remember my password and despite using all the methods you suggest to get the information I am not receiving it.

    @jalada @harvest @djave_co Same here, I'm on BT, but my co-founder on Virgin Media is fine. Tethering on GiffGaff works fine. Not having issues with other sites.

  • paulmsmith1975 Cllr Paul M Smith BA (Hons) MDipNLP CISM CISSP (@paulmsmith1975) reported
