    @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!

  • bitoclass Paul #DistantSocialising (@bitoclass) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks, I have just chosen loads of completely irrelevant options now and managed to get a message box to appear. Please could you feed back that either Wifi Extra or 'other' needs to be added into the system so that people can contact you properly? Thanks for your help!

  • bitoclass Paul #DistantSocialising (@bitoclass) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks. All those APN settings were already correct, and I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app earlier. I also tried deleting the saved Wifi Extra network and re-adding it after reinstalling the app. No luck yet, still the same error.

  • Donna_Beeeee Donna (@Donna_Beeeee) reported

    @MsVanillaRose I was on giffgaff for years, it runs on O2 but it’s completely separate. I switched to Smarty because it’s on a better network (3) and is cheaper. I’d recommend either one.

  • discocampbell David Campbell (@discocampbell) reported

    @giffgaff Is everything working ok? I'm not receiving any 2FA SMS messages to help verify my online account. Also tried sending a test SMS to myself but its not recieved back yet? Thanks.
