    @catherine_mayer I managed one month with EE (via UW) before leaving. Terrible signal - like it was 2001 again - both in town and the countryside. Went back to O2 via Giffgaff, not probs at all now.

    @ProudHeadTeach1 @giffgaff I think that's who I will prob go with. OH pays half what I do. Still good network coverage and enough data etc for what I need.

    @SODASam_ @virginmedia I’m just about to leave 02 and go on to Giffgaff. It uses the 02 network but is significantly cheaper and you just roll the contract monthly, so no long tie ins.

    @scottcrussell I found O2/GiffGaff basically unusable in any very busy urban area - lots of signal reported, but you couldn’t even send an SMS half the time, let alone use data. Switched Voxi (Vodafone) and it’s worlds better.

    @Woshmistro @backmarket @giffgaff Hi Woshi, if the phone is network unlocked then it will work on any network.

  • RCModelGeeks RC Model Geeks (@RCModelGeeks) reported

    @giffgaff DM's not working. Postcode PO108AQ the mast is actually on our property. Ive been connected to it for 2 years with 2 devices. one device just as a data connection the other a phone. both on 4G. over the last day or so neither device now uses the mast and almost 0 signal.

    Well it's only taken 2 days to find where I put the old MiFi, sellotape the new mini SIM into the middle of the old giffgaff one and now half an hour to extract the last little bit of the broken SIM out of the phone with a needle . .
