    @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 :)

  • 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

    Day 2.5 and still no 4G on EE or GiffGaff, with the latter having far less signal than the former.

    @giffgaff Hi. Have lost phone signal. Tried turning off and on again, switching roaming on and off etc. but no joy. Need codes sending to my phone to access work apps. So can you help please?!

    @GethinJones123 I moved to giffgaff a couple of years ago. Uses O2 network. I pay £8/month for unlimited calls and texts and 2Gb of data. Options range from £5 for 500Mb to £35 for unlimited data. Never had any problems, and you can change your plan each month or cancel anytime.

  • AmoAmmo amo (@AmoAmmo) reported

    I think it's weird that giffgaff don't give you any sort of bonus if you're a long term customer and you buy a handset from them. I want a phone with more storage but I'm not made of money.

  • lyricistbeats Lyricist Sam Beats (@lyricistbeats) reported

    @giffgaff pls explain why my service has been differing from 1-2 bars for the last 2 weeks and my 4g data is really slow

    @sarah93hendry Hi Sarah. We're really sorry to hear about this. We don't have a call centre as we're web based, so we're not sure who you've called. Can you please send us a DM so that we can help you further? - giffgaff Tasbiya
