    @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 you have got majorly serious issues with your website, I just went to login to my account & as soon as I clicked login it's logged me into some other users account without me entering any credentials whatsoever.

    I had been with EE for over a decade and never once have I had to wait too long for something to download on 4G. Giffgaff is too basic for me. Thank God I’m not on contract 😭

    @giffgaff 2/ says should be completed within 24hrs, I can't be without my number for work tomorrow, how will I know when to swap SIMs over in my phone other than checking if I have no service on existing SIM?
