    @giffgaff I ordered the Huawei P30 yesterday and you guys have sent me the P30 Pro.. My moral compass feels bad for accepting this, please advise :)

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 This has always been an issue. We are with giffgaff whom I believe use your signal. I have tried everything. I have even bought a booster, but the reception coming into the booster isn’t enough to even make the booster work. Very frustrating. I have to sit in a window 4 reception

    @giffgaff hi! I’m buying my mother a phone for her birthday and want to get a giffgaff sim to go in it. Went to order one on your website but whose name, email, number etc do you need? Mine (buying) or hers (customer)? Thanks!

    @ChloHillxxx Thank you. I had an iphone and Galaxy borh on Giffgaff for years and because of this issue I've ported my Galaxy number back over to EE. When my iPhone Goodybag runs out I'll be doing the same to that. The last 3 months has been atrocious data wise.

  • paulsouthern19 stephen southern (@paulsouthern19) reported

    @giffgaff network keeps dropping out!! Any suggestions?! Tried your online questions/answers #annoying

  • z52782 z52782 (@z52782) reported

    @gregmetaluk @giffgaff Sorry to hear you are experiencing slow 4G speeds, is it normally this slow?

  • Eli_Eli_s Eli_s (@Eli_Eli_s) reported

    @Yorksims @giffgaff I've tried that, it's not helped 😭😭 do you think a new sim would help?

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

    @paulsouthern19 Yikes. Please send us a DM and we can see if there are any issues in your area. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • KyahMusic kyah_music (@KyahMusic) reported

    @ChloHillxxx You know the mad thing is that it isn't even #Giffgaff's fault as they use #O2 for their service. I still think they're one of the best companies I've dealt with.

  • Jibbyboxer Jibby (@Jibbyboxer) reported

    @giffgaff Wow thanks you were such a big help, can’t wait to finish this month and move on to a network that will deal with our issue there and then via webchat or the phone, not fob us off to wait 24 hours to know why my balance has decreased.

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @Eli_Eli_s @giffgaff It could well do because if there's no network problem then it's going to be either your phone or your sim causing the lack of signal. You can either order one free from giffgaff or grab one from your local shop for under £1 then perform a sim swap to keep your number etc 1/2

  • crzyparadise Crzy Paradise (@crzyparadise) reported

    @giffgaff No, sorry, the problem is that I have speeds far below what you promise, and do not meet my expectations, You say I have to bear to pay the same price for a technical problem that isn’t my problem? I think you’re in another world…
