  • 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

  • PassionOnlineUK Faith @ Passion (@PassionOnlineUK) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @giffgaff Hi, I'm experiencing problems with data for the third day running. No reception at all today in CF11 8AT

  • 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

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

  • mrstevehuw Steve Huw (@mrstevehuw) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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… 🙁

  • hhaarrryyyy2020 Andy (@hhaarrryyyy2020) reported

    @ChrisAvern @giffgaff All the time even in a google pixel 5. No issues in area.... And O2 sim in same place same phone is as expected (fast). All this #giffgaff love and they aren't even competitive service or price wise. They just poor all round. No WiFi calling etc etc.

  • Mykiel_B MikeKAB (@Mykiel_B) reported

    @fileexit @giffgaff Swap the sims as well and see if it picks up signal fine. If it doesn’t work, it could be a faulty sim. Order a fresh one and do a sim swap

  • sutherlandEdwa2 sutherland Edward (@sutherlandEdwa2) reported

    Does anyone know or recommend a good sim card network that's pay as you go .as Giffgaff is a **** and changing them I need unlimited data and texts not bothered about the minutes ;;

    @giffgaff why haven't i got any service

  • Jon__crawford Jon Crawford (@Jon__crawford) reported

    @giffgaff Ok, got an active Golden Goodybag. Got an area with a 5G signal. Not got a 5G signal. Got a OnePlus 8 Pro running Android 11. Is there an issue with that phone & O2 / giffgaff 5G?

  • jimlad1972 Jim 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@jimlad1972) reported

    @giffgaff Not going to rush to do much, Just waiting until it settles down about more.

  • TerraMontana_ 🏆Terra Montana🏆 (@TerraMontana_) reported

    Hello my iPhone won’t connect to service provider, I’ve had apple look into this and they said to contact you because it’s not a hardware problem? @giffgaff

  • ChrisAvern Chris Avern (@ChrisAvern) reported

    @hhaarrryyyy2020 @giffgaff I know some areas can have what I call dead spots. Had issues with a surburban area yrs ago where there was no signal etc not sure if there can be blind spots between masts. It could also be something in the construction/materials of you're home. Sounds crazy I know but possible

  • DavidBflower David Blanchflower BSc (@DavidBflower) reported

    @loisnomad I'm going to get a SIM from GiffGaff. Will use this new phone in an emergency when my current phone goes iffy again.
