    @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 :)

  • 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

  • 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

    @darrensangita @EE Thanks - several people have suggested giffgaff so I'll check it out. One factor I have to take into account is which network has coverage in this far corner of Cornwall - on the Lizard where we don't even get all the TV channels !

  • paulmsmith1975 Cllr Paul M Smith BA (Hons) MDipNLP CISM CISSP (@paulmsmith1975) reported

    @giffgaff I received a complaint that an elderly customer had bills of at least £280 from doing charity work - this should never have been allowed to happen & this is a safeguarding issue also - GiffGaff should at very least refund her money under goodwill/CSR

  • ollie2897 Ollie Jones (@ollie2897) reported

    Sorry but Michelle Obama was in an episode of NCIS?? And also the UK mobile network GiffGaff is also a piece of evidence in the next episode???

  • SaaidiAbdullah Abdullah Saaidi (@SaaidiAbdullah) reported

    @giffgaff No particular thing. GiffGaff charges huge amount of money if the package ended few days earlier. Very difficult to communicate with customer service ( last time I submitted a request and received a response next day). I prefer to ba able to call rather than just typing.

  • 3ILHFvtWMpyLUZD 4508650 (@3ILHFvtWMpyLUZD) reported

    @giffgaff I got an email advising of refund and now my service has stopped. Can't make or receive calls, can't add new goodybag. Can you help?

  • paulmsmith1975 Cllr Paul M Smith BA (Hons) MDipNLP CISM CISSP (@paulmsmith1975) reported

    @giffgaff I need a point of contact to email the paperwork to who can refund her money & fix her tariffs - this is a vulnerable elderly lady trying only to help others - we need a goodwill gesture & then her tariffs fixed

  • paulmsmith1975 Cllr Paul M Smith BA (Hons) MDipNLP CISM CISSP (@paulmsmith1975) reported

    @giffgaff I have received a serious consumer complaint from an elderly customer of your organization - I would appreciate your help to resolve - please contact me as I know you value your elderly customers

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

    @paulmsmith1975 Hi Paul. We're really sorry to hear this. How can we help? You can send us a DM if you'd prefer. - giffgaff Emer.

  • SaaidiAbdullah Abdullah Saaidi (@SaaidiAbdullah) reported

    I have to switch from @giffgaff to another provider. It's expensive and doesn't have a good customer service (there's no customer service number to call!) Any recommended service provider with good network signal, prices, and customer service?
