    @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

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

  • 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 hey Giffgaff, I noticed my phone switches from 4g to 3g when making voice calls and the signal gets weaker. Is this a limitation of the network?

    Hey @O2 I'm currently a @giffgaff customer but there EU roaming policy is terrible. Is it true if I'm a @virginmedia customer, I'll get double data and 25gb roaming when on holiday in the EU?

    Trying to manage parents' mobile phone accounts on giffgaff with two-factor authentication is an absolute nightmare of emails and texts and phone calls across multiple devices. Definitely going to find a better solution to this...

  • Extinguisherman Dale Watts (@Extinguisherman) reported

    @jmaybankjackson @O2 Yeah but they don’t disclose the fact there are probably too many devices trying to access the network!!! They got o2, giffgaff, Tesco, sky, three, Lycra no wonder it’s pants, also be told that loads of smart meters use o2, might explain why that dosent work in my house either!

  • G1zm02k5 alec (@G1zm02k5) reported

    @MENnewsdesk @giffgaff are on the o2 network , o2 offer unlimited roaming where giffgaff only offer 5gb

  • dollypomping . (@dollypomping) reported

    I don’t wanna call anyone who uses Giffgaff. The voicemail is horrible

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

    @jchannon Ensure any texts you're receiving are from DPD themselves, and not from a mobile number showing a DPD link. As long as you are able to see the phone is due to arrive today, you should have no issues receiving both today. - giffgaff Jeanette
