    @giffgaff Hi Hannah, thanks for the prompt reply. This seems to be a persistent problem near a signal tower, so I suspect that may be the cause of the problem? May your team investigate further please?

    @aminart I moved to Giffgaff ages ago and bought reconditioned phones from there. No problems, flexible contracts and the phones (all iPhones) were reasonable cost.

  • oozdelune vvv (@oozdelune) reported

    hi @giffgaff why do you slow down your data speeds to almost nothing once you pass 80GB? i need to hotspot my laptop for uni work but even loading a page on my phone takes ages ??

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @ddphotograph @giffgaff If he never activates the giffgaff sim that comes with the phone he won't get any further charges from them it'll just be a one off payment but if you're not already a giffgaff member there's no way to avoid having to buy a goodybag with the phone unfortunately.

  • JayAlexTee 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Jim (@JayAlexTee) reported

    @giffgaff My phone won’t currently make or receive calls despite having bars of signal and network connection (Bristol).
