    @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 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 :)

    @giffgaff @sixtwotwo1 I contacted you 2 days ago and this is still not resolved. This is a massive problem considering some family issues at the moment. What can be done?

    @giffgaff Who can actually help me here? Clearly nobody working for giffgaff. Should I complain to @O2?

    @dovdacosta @giffgaff Just £2.67/GB ain’t bad.

    @giffgaff Having zero exceptions for study abroad students is a really bad business model and very short sighted.

    @giffgaff Why won't my giffgaff phone work on WiFi? I can use the Internet and WhatsApp but I can't pick up messages or make/receive calls? No signal here so dependant on WiFi. Can't pay bills as a text is needed for verification and I can't receive them

    @giffgaff Why is the roaming allowance going down.

  • stephaniedale_
    Steph (@stephaniedale_) reported

    @O2 / @giffgaff please can you check your signal / networks / masts around Staffordshire and Cheshire? The service is shocking. Has been for months. 3 of us are all having issues - it's almost unusable. Calls drop all the time, no signal or poor signal.

    @MX5AKA Good point. Whenever I searched GiffGaff 5G it presented a map showing good coverage without any mention that this was general coverage. Entering locations does allow you select, which wasn’t initially obvious. Better labelling would help, especially when accessed from tablets.

    @Inthedin1 Oh no, that's not good. Can you please drop us a DM with your full post code, so we can check for any issues. - giffgaff Tasbiya

    @saramttnez @giffgaff Plusnet still has EU roaming included in the allowance. It uses EE network so it's a game changer for me (it doest have 5G though), and is pretty cheap too!
