    @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 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

    @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

    Switched from Giffgaff to 3 a few months back for the 5G and sorry but the signal is so patchy???

  • ED_of_all ED (@ED_of_all) reported

    @z52782 @giffgaff Relatively easily!? Here's the thing what if I don't have a driver's license? What if I cant find my passport and don't want to pull out half my house just so I have full access to the internet again? I just want to know why now have you done this? What was the problem before??

  • marciahut Marcia Hutchinson (@marciahut) reported

    @marcsrhudson @giffgaff Don't usually recommend but try 'Smarty' the discount service from Three; £6:00 per month, unlimited calls texts & 4Gig of data. You should also be able to port your number.

  • griffinkate Kate Griffin (@griffinkate) reported

    @giffgaff I've been a customer since 2013 and so far I've been very happy with the emails I've been getting. I'm usually happy to receive messages about offers. But "Black Friday" is not a thing in this country, so why offer deals for it? Do it any other time of the year!

  • shimself steve hayes (@shimself) reported

    @loupepper Giffgaff. Best customer service despite being all online. By a country mile. Honest even.

  • lxurenscxtt Lauren Scott (@lxurenscxtt) reported

    @giffgaff I ordered a ‘like new’ refurbished iPhone 7 and it’s come with the screen scuffed quite dramatically. Nothing on the return category fits and the ‘ask an agent’ option is down. Any help please?

  • juasunshine Emzy (@juasunshine) reported

    @giffgaff Can we change the name of black Friday to bargain Friday or something, the history is so horrible

  • KILAGRIM KILAGRIM (@KILAGRIM) reported

    @VodafoneUK why is your network constantly failing me where ever I go, ee bt 3 and even giffgaff users have no issues with their networks
