    @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

    @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 It’s a shame that your signal where I live has gone terrible. Never used to be like this. What’s changed? Going to have to look for a different provider… 🙁

    @giffgaff Accidentally signed for 18-month contract on 13/3/26. Router with SIM off since 17/3 for some months, so this contract is hardly useful!. I wish to cancel under my 14-day statutory right to cancel please. How? No email, phone contact, agent does not allow questions.

    @finchyid1710 @beverleyturner A child can still buy a Fanta tho with no id, this is you cant have any until you verify, Not like a kid friendly version where you can still do some things it's just prove it or loose it, on device, instead of through the service you are using. For example giffgaff blocks adult content until you prove you are over 18. Some isp's block illegal sites. This doesn't need to be on device because if apple can do it, then why shouldn't samsung do it for their tvs which can also access illegal sites or porn these days. BUT, I have come to the conclusion that we've gone to far not parenting kids properly surrounding the internet and the gov has no choice or feels it has no choice, to do these things, Saying that there is no law for this kind of thing to be on-device so apple really has no reason to do it unless they know something we don't (likely)

    @giffgaff I hope I don’t run into any problems. I need to get this money this month. Thank you.

    @giffgaff that's it **** off. I'm getting a couple of EE sims as your app, your service and YOU are ******* useless. A waste of ******* time and effort. ******* clowns.

    @EE I reckon that it's a combination of you both. Yesterday it would not work on EE iPhone but got to login on my Giffgaff iPhone but missed the 7:30pm deadline since it asked me to update app first with only minutes to go. Only once have I had the problem on GG, but 4 times with EE

    @giffgaff Urgent unresolved SIM swap/account takeover issue on my Giffgaff account. I have now lost access to my mobile service twice within 36 hours despite repeatedly reporting the compromise and linked banking/finance fraud. No response from you and requires urgent escalation

    @giffgaff Your network has been terrible for over a week. Keeps getting worse by the day.

    @Ajarncom I only have to call the UK from time to time. Best option I found was to order a Giffgaff SIM (or esim), stick a fiver in it and just top up when required. It usually connects to the AIS network here so calls etc all good. Serves 2 purposes with being able to receive UK SMS also

    @giffgaff No I can’t because x has decided to ask me for encryption key I’ve never set up
