    @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!

    @94bellababy123 Hi there. Oh dear, we understand that's frustrating. Especially when he was likely looking forward to it. Please advise him to report this to an agent via his account or via his delivery info link, and they will help him with this. - giffgaff Gavin

    @MaryKenny4 The only time you get contacted by say giffgaff as an example is when have not topped a number for so long and even then they don't phone, they'll text or email. To prevent Junk Calls, never give your main number to anyone other than F&F, Dr, Bank, Work/School, or get 2sim phone

    @giffgaff @realNyarime If you want to solve the problem,stop using the template response first.I asked the agent about the PAC refund,and they responded “Upon reviewing your account, our systems confirmed …..”,It’s has nothing to do with my question.

    @MarkSparx2 If the live chat has cut off Mark, and you've been referred to our agents, it may be that the keywords used suggested an account issue and not a phone issue. Please try this again to speak to our live chat team. - giffgaff Jeanette
