    @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

  • SigniusNetworks Signius (@SigniusNetworks) reported

    @giffgaff is there a way to disable these really annoying alerts to connect O2 WiFi hotspot every bloody time I drive past one of enter a shop like Sainsbury's that provides these? Or has this crap been hard coded into O2s network & SIM cards ergo GiffGaff ??

  • DrChemistryEmz Emma (@DrChemistryEmz) reported

    @EverydayKnitter It’s very annoying?! We get 4G here but I’ve got absolutely nothing, not sure when it last connected? It’s giffgaff (so O2) and Si has network so not sure what’s wrong 😬

  • Bebopop_ louisiana slim✧ ꈍ ✰ (@Bebopop_) reported

    Anyone else’s @giffgaff down?

  • DrChemistryEmz Emma (@DrChemistryEmz) reported

    @Yorksims @Arednel @giffgaff Yep that’s the plan! Tried another network sim and it works. I’m just not sure if I can grab a Sim at Tesco this late, I don’t know if they have them for sale.

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

    @SigniusNetworks Okay, thanks for checking that. If you're using an android device, there should also be a disable network toggle that will stop notifications every time you pass a Wi-Fi hotspot - giffgaff Nicole

  • Joen_Th3 Swarley Quinn (@Joen_Th3) reported

    @giffgaff Nevermind. Your network diagnostics are wrong and that postcode is currently a blackspot for data as I first said. As soon as I left FY8 3FR, my data began flowing properly!

  • Joen_Th3 Swarley Quinn (@Joen_Th3) reported

    @giffgaff Having checked with a colleague, it's the mobile data that is the problem rather than my calls. I renewed my goody bag this morning. Does that help?

  • GimfelDweller Toni Web (@GimfelDweller) reported

    @giffgaff I have today received a sim card addressed to my address but the addressee does not live here and never has. I believe this could be a scam. who do I speak to please?
