    @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

    @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 Tasbiya, it’s now 44 hrs since I swapped the sim on Sunday morning and O2 network is still not available and in without any connection when I’m out and about.

    @giffgaff I have heard nothing. We still have no phone and I don't know what to do if there is a problem with my daughter as we have no way of communicating if there is an emergency. We are living in fear

    Anyone on @o2 or @giffgaff and found their phone signal performance to be absolutely lacklustre? Everywhere I’ve been the past week has been terrible.

    @Teresastorey81 @giffgaff Hi Teresa, when you close your account all payment methods are removed. Is it possible you have another another account? I would suggest calling the bank to cancel future payments being made.

    @LauraKing14 @giffgaff Been a SIM customer for a while - no complaints. Was about to upgrade my ageing handset, don't think I'll be considering them for it, based on your experience. Hope they take responsibility.
