    @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!

    @OwenJBlanche I’d defo get into them about that, including sports but no Films I always bartered them down to £80, then £50 for BB and another £150 for 3 mobiles. They’ll get nothing in 6 weeks. Vodafone for BB, ID & Giffgaff for mobiles and Virgin for TV. £130 all in. And a magic stick

    giffgaff: “We’re different from traditional mobile networks.” They weren’t joking. Most networks take your money and provide a service. giffgaff apparently takes your money and provides a lesson in reading the Fair Usage Policy. Truly innovative. 👏🇬🇧

    I got a new data sim and my golly I think giffgaff was genuinely the problem

  • jasoneccles
    Jason (@jasoneccles) reported

    @thomasforth I think they are, in a way. This year I made the mistake of moving from O2 to Lebara, because it was cheaper. The signal is terrible, and despite it being on the Vodafone network, I get a “less bars” than colleagues who are on Vodafone. It seems to me the MVNOs, like Lebara and GiffGaff, are ways of selling less bandwidth for cheaper money.

    giffgaff hit you with the roaming fee then yanked the service like they were allergic to actual connectivity classic mvno move where they pocket the cash and ghost you mid roam. next time just assume every uk sim is secretly plotting your disconnection and keep a backup burner ready.

    Dear giffgaff Team, I am writing regarding the email I received stating that my service (mobile number ending in 3047) will be disconnected due to extended use outside the UK. My account/number is 7768423047.
