    @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 can you point me in the right direction to speak to someone people are unable to phone me but can text. Unfortunately your help page is a bit confusing

  • evkmusc Erin 🐭 (@evkmusc) reported

    When I left o2 for giffgaff they were like "You do realise it's on o2's network but you won't get phone customer service?" As though that was a selling point and not the bane of my existence.

  • LilMsFickle Lil Ms Mally (@LilMsFickle) reported

    Bitten the bullet and preserved a new phone direct from apple, iPhone 12 mini, going for closing o2 account and paying it off asp their customer service are crap and I’ve had nothing but issues with them. I’m off with a giffgaff sim only deal so I’m not as tied in.

  • BrazenDwarf7402 Ray 💙 (@BrazenDwarf7402) reported

    @giffgaff When did you change your voicemail message? When I was a customer you had a nice soothing Geordie accent. I'm calling a lot of giffgaff users as part of a project I'm doing atm

  • livicee_91 LIVICEE (@livicee_91) reported

    @giffgaff please could you help? I bought a goody bag but my network coverage is awful and it would be better to downgrade the amount of data I have.

  • JK_3D JK3D (@JK_3D) reported

    @giffgaff I'm trying to login to my account and I reset my password but I've been locked out even though I logged in with the correct password. I can't use any of the help services and there aren't any contact numbers, what am I supposed to do?

  • LoganBanks2 Logan Banks (@LoganBanks2) reported

    @EE Anyone joining EE needs their head checking. Crap customer service. Poor loyalty scheme (with them for 5 years and still wanted money for upgrade) non competitive deals. Do what I did and join @giffgaff

  • till_the_wheels 𝕵𝖚𝖌𝖘 (@till_the_wheels) reported

    @giffgaff You've had two years to help. From here on in it's all about bringing you and O2 down.

  • chizmw Chisel (@chizmw) reported

    @giffgaff Ah yes, I was already aware of the MNVO link between giffgaff and O2. I'm trying to establish if O2 really does use the VirginMedia network as it's backbone/infrastructure.
