    @giffgaff Hi, I've been charged twice for my recurring goodbag, once on the 5th & again on the 11th April. Obviously there is no way of contacting you through your website and the FAQ's don't help. Can someone please get back to me. Thanks

    @giffgaff you are the only network that doesn't offer a worldwide roaming package. Why not?

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

    @KRYP7OKEEPER It can take up to 24 hours from your port in day for your service to be fully up and running. During this time we recommend that you reboot your phone off and on again a few times, to help speed this up. If you're having issues after 24 hours please let us know - giffgaff Jade
