    @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 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 :)

    @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 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!

  • mrstevehuw Steve Huw (@mrstevehuw) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @giffgaff It’s a shame that your signal where I live has gone terrible. Never used to be like this. What’s changed? Going to have to look for a different provider… 🙁

  • KathRella Kath Rella (@KathRella) reported

    @giffgaff Yes, I have. It has been quite the awful experience. I think the time could have been spent more productively by trying to make a time machine out of whatever random items I can find behind the sofa, in an attempt to take back the hours giffgaff's inept agents have taken from me

  • woldsweather Trevor Appleton (@woldsweather) reported

    @samiwoods89 @giffgaff Yeah I’ve only had 1 bar signal and often nothing last 5 days. Definitely something going on. Maybe it’s the heat.
