  • 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

  • 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!

  • Asgharki AzKhaaan × (@Asgharki) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @giffgaff Oh I'm not complaining! 🙈 Just feel bad you sent me a higher model!

  • 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

  • Ragdollcatman Raggycat Rattyman - 🐭🐱 (@Ragdollcatman) reported

    @SamMaayan @giffgaff I like the Galaxy Note phones but that's it. Nearly every Samsung product I've had has died from motherboard failure or has had issues with the motherboard. Both G. Note 1 phones we had, an original G. Tab 10", 2 Samsung UE32J5600 TVs and a Samsung branded external HDD.

    @giffgaff I'm sorry, I was very tired yesterday I went to sleep. Can you help me today, in private? @giffgaff

  • gatefourteen 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻 (@gatefourteen) reported

    @giffgaff Absolutely useless support. Asking me to verify my details for security. Provided two things only I would know. Cannot provide an IMEI number because it's not printed on device so apparently they can't verify me due to GDPR. I've never provided an IMEI number so how it be used...

  • gatefourteen 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻 (@gatefourteen) reported

    @giffgaff Luckily I've now installed @SMARTYMobileUK Sims in the device.(s). £15 cheaper and for unlimited data and ...shock horror...they actually work. Stick your SIM card and your appalling customer service in the sea @giffgaff .

  • gatefourteen 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻 (@gatefourteen) reported

    @giffgaff Yep, I've responded to you. Hopefully someone will reply with a fix or a refund then.

  • Lewis_D_White Lewis White (@Lewis_D_White) reported

    @HKT3030 Giffgaff does the same thing. I think you have to give them your ID on giffgaff which I've never done so I'm still blocked. Used to block random **** like reddit which was very frustrating as a teenager
