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

  • AdrianBeeby Adrian H Beeby (@AdrianBeeby) reported from Chorley, England

    @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.

    @giffgaff terrible signal these last few days in wallsend NE28 - is this because of the telephone pole fire?

    @pancakedvo im more concerned as to what internet service is called giffgaff

  • nloveactually 🅽🅸🅲🅺 🅻🅾🆅🅴 (@nloveactually) reported

    @daviddunninguk @O2 Strange. I'm with Giffgaff (which as you know is on the O2 network) and I've got lightning-fast 5G in the city centre. Got to admit that I have frequent niggly problems with phone calls. Maybe it's the sheer volume their network is failing to cope with...

  • DrHydeous David Cantrell (@DrHydeous) reported

    @axemonkey Did you have any mail forwarding configured with Giffgaff? DNS caching wouldn't normally be an issue after that long.

  • luetchyboy Craig (@luetchyboy) reported

    @giffgaff myself and my partner recently joined you guys. The service is shocking. Slow speeds regularly and unable to use apps at times. Is this a regular thing?

  • Leonlinsx Leon Lin (@Leonlinsx) reported

    friend recommended @giffgaff sim for my europe trip and it worked great, no service issues and had enough data at a reasonable price

  • z52782 z52782 (@z52782) reported

    @ctubboasd @cpurpIed @giffgaff is a UK mobile phone network.

  • carlb1981 carl bromley (@carlb1981) reported

    Why is phone reception so bad in Guildford? Everytime I'm here can't do anything but it always says 4g @giffgaff

  • HarryReynoldson Harry Reynoldson (@HarryReynoldson) reported

    @giffgaff Still no service after 5 days, “mast issues” in my area, new sim which had service until I activated it, automated reply’s in DM’s, we’re just going round in circles here aren’t we?

  • Roberta9996 Roberta Sutton (@Roberta9996) reported

    @giffgaff No the most was car insurance and I've sorted that giff gaff was 10, 10, and 6 on different dates in May - maybe that is when I bought goodybags but have never used them because although supposedly activated the phone stayed dead.
