    @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 :)

  • lisadoe24 Lisa Doe (@lisadoe24) reported from Cowbridge with Llanblethian, Wales

    @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!

  • Asgharki AzKhaaan × (@Asgharki) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

  • 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

  • katejones_cymru Kate Jones (@katejones_cymru) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @giffgaff I’ve tried the buy a goody bag, yesterday and today and it’s not working, my goody bag hasn’t been activated

  • HannahAMont Maybe: hannah montana (@HannahAMont) reported

    @giffgaff haven’t been able to make calls all day and I’m moving around so it’s not a location issue and this has been going on for about a year now. I have a new sim and a new phone. What do I do?! Turned it on and off again!

  • 25z2 © Bias BIOS (@25z2) reported

    @JayHarris_Sec @LargeCardinal @ms__chief Wife got hers 40mins before mine. Same room, 02 vs Giffgaff, which is odd given 02 offers mvno network to them.

  • Original_LUKEY9 Luke Ball (@Original_LUKEY9) reported

    @giffgaff I’ve had no signal at home for three days now is a mast down ?

  • giffgaff giffgaff | We're up to good (@giffgaff) reported

    @kinson1964 Hi James. A membername can only be changed upon your first log in after activating a SIM, so unfortunately the membername can't be changed after this. However, we are sorry to see you have had issues completing the survey, thank you for passing this onto us. - giffgaff Megan

  • themoaningbible The Moaning Bible 😎 (@themoaningbible) reported

    @tescomobile I see the manager call back to deal with my complaint that apparently took 5 working days (embarrassing really) it's now been 10 working days and still no contact. Glad my contract is up...I'm shifting over to @giffgaff or @ThreeUK

  • goriller_of_3b goriller_of_3b (@goriller_of_3b) reported

    @DavidWaywell I'm on GiffGaff, runs on O². Arrived early. Which would give me a headstart for shelters. CANNOT WAIT for the Emergency Alert Conspiracy Theory hot-takes that are surely due...

  • MrD3W Dezmond White (@MrD3W) reported

    @MartinSLewis I’m on GiffGaff and I spend £20 a month and that gets me unlimited texts and minutes and 80GB and I’m not tied down to a contract you can pick how much you want to spend a month

  • menix1337 Jesper MENIX Lund (@menix1337) reported

    @giffgaff both my girlfriend and i, have your sim services - both in Northern Ireland, and neither of us received the emergency alarm. Anything you can report back on?

  • The__JC Justin Cohen (@The__JC) reported

    @MartinSLewis I've been with @giffgaff for years. Never paid more than £10 per month, and they keep upping the data allowance. Great service and fair price. I'm going nowhere else 🤩

  • Witham69 Witham69 (@Witham69) reported

    @VOXI_UK @giffgaff Yes I accept that, but why do you alter that particular phone setting during an update? You don't change any other settings on my phone when it restarts, just that one. It's a problem for people with secret or hidden phones in abusive relationships for example.
