    @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

  • 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

    @jerijerod14 Buy a second hand one. I got one from Giffgaff. Brilliant plus you can choose any network so much cheaper per month as well

  • Tracy52468806 Tracy (@Tracy52468806) reported

    @giffgaff do you have network issues in BS34 area again today? Getting fed up with this network

    @Tracy52468806 We're very sorry to hear this, Tracy. Please can you provide your full UK postcode. So we can check for issues in the area - giffgaff Jade

  • Mildred76 Rachel Midwood (@Mildred76) reported

    @giffgaff There is no answer on the feedback and they are saying its answered but nothing and phone not working. So I'm not tech phobic...but its not even taking or sending WiFi calls but has credit...

  • Tracy52468806 Tracy (@Tracy52468806) reported

    @giffgaff Done all those things already. Will be looking for new provider. Too many issues and poor coverage

  • GaslightMillie The Gaffer 🇾🇪 (@GaslightMillie) reported

    @giffgaff @AshJamIng Since the start, would never go anywhere else

  • soxxylady Sharon 🦋 (@soxxylady) reported

    @JackpWild @stax97 @giffgaff Calm down! It’s not a bloody commercial 🙄 I was stating before you had a fit! That if you researched reviews etc on companies before you buy a phone. Then you wouldn’t get crap refurbish ones 🙄 grow up 👋

  • ScarletSiren27 HiJinX ♥️ ScarletSiren ♥️ (@ScarletSiren27) reported

    @giffgaff you sold me a phone that does not accept a SIM card. Permanently no service. Yes it was refurbished but you clearly didn’t run it through checks before you made money from it !

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

    @natcmidge Oh dear, we're so sorry to hear this. Can you please send us a DM with her full post code, just so we can check for any issues? - giffgaff Tasbiya

  • bigwows The Marvellous Muttdini 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🔰💜🤍💚 (@bigwows) reported

    @JamesKennedyUK Zen is terrific for t’internet. @EE twice bricked my phone when abroad despite my buying an add-on for such use because they didn’t like me being on a legacy T-Mobile plan. (Tried a Giffgaff SIM the second time; it was fine so not a phone issue.) Horrifically irresponsible.
