    @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!

    @CharlieHaddon3 @giffgaff Hi Charlie, just adding credit doesn’t give you a goodybag. U hv to exchange the credit for a goodybag by dialing 43430 opt 2 from ur phone or online. In fact never add credit, just get a goodybag direct everytime otherwise soon as u add credit ur phone will start eating ur cred

    After the NIGHTMARE of buying a phone from @giffgaff (2 with faulty batteries, 1 scratched up) I'm sorry I ever left @tescomobile - will you have me back - your lack of calls over Wifi seem like a mild problem to have compared to dealing with GG.

    @TSB my 8 year old son is receiving repeated text messages from TSB about a stranger's bank account entries to his watch. Can you please help stop these messages please. Or @giffgaff might you be able to block these texts please? Thanks, Alan

    I’d never been able to use another network’s SIM in it, until Dad said today that I could. So I’ve put my GiffGaff one in it and the signal is shite (to say the least).
