    @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.

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

    Anyone else having terrible signal around Gwent on @EE? The £6 Giffgaff sim I've got in my secondary slot is thrashing it.

  • NYRO_CaroleAH Carole Houston (@NYRO_CaroleAH) reported

    @DPD @giffgaff Still waiting for a response regarding a handset that should have been delivered on Monday! 4 days without any response! Appalling customer service!

    @Sutoretchii @O2 @SMARTYMobileUK I used giffgaff a few years ago which runs on O2 and it was fine, been using voxi since which is on Vodafone and its great. Tried smarty once, could hardly get a signal anywhere. Awful

  • obw666 oscar (@obw666) reported

    @M1dgar @O2 just go giffgaff and get the phone through them, cheaper deals better money value (giffgaff is on o2 network)

    @giffgaff I have tried this on another browser, it may be because my address on my bank card has changed and the website doesn't seem to be saving this when i try and update but not sure why paypal is also not working.

  • F1Lozzy lozzy🏳️‍🌈 (@F1Lozzy) reported

    @rhiannonefc18 i’ve always been on O2 and loved it but you do pay a bit more... i’m with giffgaff now (who run off O2s signal) and it’s so good to be able to change tariffs month by month. in lockdown when i was on wifi 24/7 i reduced my data and saved sooo much

    @markbutcher9 @RemainingKind @Eddystone506 Hardly naive, I’d suggesting getting it in proportion. You know what O2 announced for 2022, in-effect a fair use policy, will actually be cheaper that what Giffgaff already charge EU roaming customers exceeding 25gb. Even EE is one network of over 60 operators&virtual operators.
