    @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!

    @thealso @lankylegohead @ThreeUK Giffgaff, Sky & Tesco, are all on the O2 network! Roaming data capped at 25gb I think though!

  • TonyVCarter 🅃🄾🄽🅈 🄲🄰🅁🅃🄴🅁 (@TonyVCarter) reported

    @giffgaff That's bad. Well behind the competition. O2 offer it and you use their network. Oh well will look elsewhere.

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

    @Zeeyg93 That's very strange, Zed. Please can you try using a different browser or device as this should help - giffgaff Jade

  • Mykiel_B MikeKAB (@Mykiel_B) reported

    @DelphineMusic @giffgaff I use my iPad Air with a giffgaff sim and it works great. Mine actually installed the carrier profile automatically. Do you have the latest iOS first and foremost? If not update that first. Then go to Settings~General~Reset~Reset network settings then pressing See if that works.

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

    @manansaddique It sounds like the phone itself is locked to a certain network, Mannan. We would recommend contacting the retailer directly, to query this further - giffgaff Jade

    @JayPalmer17 @giffgaff It's not just you. I see people on ID Mobile in the UK and me in the US on Ting with the same issue.
