  • 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

  • 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 Oh I'm not complaining! 🙈 Just feel bad you sent me a higher model!

    @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!

    @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 :)

    Wow @giffgaff Massive customer service fail. And I used to tell people how brilliant you are. Is it greed or laziness? Actually don’t answer that. I don’t care. Thanks @Barclays customer service for sorting. Dominic was calming!!! Moving on…

  • CammieRacing Cammie Racing (@CammieRacing) reported

    @giffgaff I want to return it for a refund, but I can only find options for a repair - I don't want a 3rd iPhone 7, as it seems all your 'like new' iPhone 7's have battery health problems? :/

    @TheChusid Hello there, We don't support e-sims. - giffgaff Ann

  • GuyEmerson Guy Emerson (@GuyEmerson) reported

    Have to leave @giffgaff after 10 years good service due to their roaming policy. They’ve implemented a policy that hurts those studying abroad harshly.
