    @iD_Mobile_UK @O2 @giffgaff As expected, and despite the promises, I have received no call back for a third (and now final) time. Please escalate the complaint as requested - I've had three commitments for a call back only for you to miss every single one of them. Beyond poor service.

    @giffgaff hello I joined a few months ago as I was getting slow 4G speeds on my previous network. After joining giffgaff it was loads better and now has slowed right up again. Please can you help? When I run a speed test it seems that the speed is capped at under 5mbps!

    @giffgaff @reubenwvw Does your garbage company have any sense of ethics at all? You ban people’s accounts without offering any proper way to resolve the issue, and now you won’t even refund the remaining balance—you’re just keeping all the money for yourselves?
