    @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 :)

    @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

    @EDI_SarahMQ @giffgaff That's a shame because blocking the phone only bars it from connecting to the network but all of your child's data will still be on it so fingers crossed whoever finds it can't get past your child's pin code and so can't get into the phone.

  • michaelocyoung Michael Young (@michaelocyoung) reported

    Hello @giffgaff A friend who is on a rival network (but one which also uses O2 infrastructure) has had EU roaming charges implemented. Can you confirm that you are going to continue not charging for EU+Norway roaming - at least until July?

  • ItsCallumtomz Callum (@ItsCallumtomz) reported

    Thankfully it’s only been 6 hours since @giffgaff went down, seems to be stabilising so I’ll hopefully be able to make a call within an hour or so

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @Doug_Paulley @giffgaff No,giffgaff don't support wifi calling yet and there's no news on when they will do.

    @ItsCallumtomz Hi Callum. We completely understand your frustration, however, we can see that a mast nearby isn't working, so this is why you're having issues. You wouldn't need to SIM swap, so don't worry about that. - giffgaff Tasbiya

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

    @WarlockGlyndalf No worries Glyn, we recommend rebooting your phone several times within this time frame also to help with this and if the problem persists, you can get back in contact with us then - giffgaff Nicole

    @giffgaff Its great just as long as you don't mind paying for a service you dont get

  • HGooner14 HGooner14 (@HGooner14) reported

    @giffgaff @Ofcom another day and my internet isn’t working, despite me paying £35 for my data plan a few days ago. I’ll be escalating this and putting through an official complaint as it’s unacceptable. I use the internet for work and it’s currently being throttled.

  • WarlockGlyndalf Glyn Roberts (@WarlockGlyndalf) reported

    @giffgaff Hi. After several restarts and network resets speed is still unusable. At around 7 am it was OK but from 8am zilch. Now down 0.1 up just fails. Using Ookla Speedtest.

  • markkitchen5 mark kitchen (@markkitchen5) reported

    @giffgaff Is it out of the realms of possibility to have someone call me just to put this issue to bed i mean it has been 4 months or is that not quite long enough
