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

  • 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 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!

    @giffgaff why is my son getting "sign in to network o2" - his 4g doesn't work, so he clicks on it and nothing happens.

  • its_kiyaxo Kiya Findlay (@its_kiyaxo) reported

    @giffgaff my 4G is so **** :( wtf is going on?

  • AidenLUFC28 KATRINA (@AidenLUFC28) reported

    @asda_mobile shocking service from you. My payg sim not working, despite you telling me it’s pending, 24 hours later I’m still waiting. Nah off to Giffgaff, no customer services and your staff are clueless

  • z52782 z52782 (@z52782) reported

    @nisahfirdous Hi there, what seems to be the problem your having with @giffgaff ?

  • __kwbz Kwabena 🇯🇲🇬🇭 (@__kwbz) reported

    Giffgaff is a terrible network isn't it

  • silvergoatish Marvellous mechanical mountain goat 🐐 (@silvergoatish) reported

    @virginmedia I am close to running out of my phone's data. I've just about used up a month's worth of GiffGaff, for essential communications, in the past 5 days while Virgin broadband has been down. I'm unable to connect to GiffGaff for a phone top up with a poor signal.

  • xxth_legion Luke (@xxth_legion) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Played in Bristol today but mine & my wife’s signal wasn’t great... lots of areas with poor coverage. Looking at you 02 / GIFFGAFF sort it out. Luckily got four shiny Teddiusa.

  • Shayla_x OrionPixie ☀️ (@Shayla_x) reported

    @__kwbz I've used EE over the years and no issues. 02 is a decent one also and then Tesco mobile is reasonable with decent coverage. Every time I call someone on Giffgaff they don't get the call because of coverage issues.

  • prue_evans Polly Anna (@prue_evans) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks for replying, it is back now, but was doing that thing of taking forever to load once I signed in and then a flash of dashboard and it disappeared. Only to reload, and do the same. And very slow.

  • Leighina_Louuu LeighinaYasmin (@Leighina_Louuu) reported

    @giffgaff is the worst provider. I’ve been with them a month and all my data has drained by trying to connect to things. My what’s app literally says connecting 24 hours of the day. Waste of money.
