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… 🙁

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

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

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

Rhoda (@UkRhoda) reported@giffgaff How can a “service” company run with zero customer service/help and no phone number? What nonsense! Scammers!
-
Mark1165 (@MarkC1165) reported@giffgaff I purchased some travel data for Canada on Friday morning. 16)5/2026. It shows as valid in the app but when I choose mobile data I don't get any signal? Do I have to enable roaming? I don't want to lose the credit on my account.
-
Gareth Kirk (@GarethTheNerd) reported@mhewson_MCH @O2 Honestly the networks all own a cheaper brand. O2 - GiffGaff Vodafone - Voxi (or talkmobile) Three - Smarty mobile EE - EE don't own a flanker brand but 1pMobile sort of fills that gap Would recommend any of them over the big names (apart from 1p mobile as I've never tried it)

Martin (@martinrue) reported@robj3d3 @IMAC2 @ThreeUK Ah dude that sucks. FWIW, I use giffgaff and they're happy so long as you top up every few months.

d. (@SugrPuft) reported@AbsoluteLeaNot @thecapitalistw Literally, joined Giffgaff to save £2/month, big error. Voxis signal is goated, just ordered an ESim.

Fergus Kiely (@fergus_kiely) reportedRaised a complaint with GiffGaff - still no reply??!!
-
MOfad.! (@tarafaderin) reported@giffgaff Hello, How long can I keep a giffgaff SIM without recharging it before I lose the SIM & it, been reallocated to another customer please? Thanks.
-
Observer_of_Decline (@Decline_Observe) reported@lukerobertblack The Boomers think that because you spend a tenner a month on a GiffGaff and have a phone that costs £20 a month you are frivolous and don't work hard. And that a one bedroom flat at 12x earnings is just a matter of knuckling down.

giffgaff (@giffgaff) reported@gemcq2 We understand. The bot is still learning, so sometimes can get things wrong. Based on your issue we would recommend stating that you need to return the phone, but that there is no option on your account and this should connect you correctly - giffgaff Hannah
