    @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.

    @giffgaff why do giffgaff not allow me to login to website when I am abroad? Isn't that a bit lazy on securing your site? I have to VPN back to UK in order to login to my giffgaff account. very annoying.

    @giffgaff is there something wrong with your service? my data isn’t working even tho i have unlimited data, calls and texts

  • eimilefrances Eimíle (@eimilefrances) reported

    @giffgaff why does your data /internet access never work? it's either super slow despite a 4g connection, or it tells me I have 4g but never loads a single thing and tells me I have no internet connection. My friends and family are experiencing the same thing!!!!
