    @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!

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

    @teamIPSE Without a doubt! And phone signal! It is appalling how bad the signal is in parts of the UK outside of London! I am 4 minutes from the Cardiff city centre with no signal! #howareyoumeanttorunabusiness @o2networks @O2 @giffgaff

    @giffgaff nearly 24 hours without connection to network. Unable to make/receive calls, unable to send receive messages. Only able to use phone if on wifi which is no good if I need to go out. Originally raised yesterday but this is getting urgent now. I need assistance to sort

    @giffgaff I was a very happy customer for a number of years, but as a very low user I moved to @1pMobile last year when you doubled all the basic PAYG rates.
