giffgaff (@giffgaff) reported@hero52835 You can go to the 'Help' section, and then you should see an option to contact an agent - giffgaff Hannah
-
A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported@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

Alex Wheatley (@thealexbear) reported@TomTalksCars @O2 I agree. Im on giffgaff which uses o2. Signal is shocking in many places.

giffgaff (@giffgaff) reported@ARRelectech Hello Diablo, this does sound frustrating. You've mentioned another sim works in your phone, this would suggest there's an issue / fault that's developed with the existing sim you're using, and you'll need to complete a sim swap on your account - giffgaff Mark

Garfield StJohnSmyth (@MittArmstrong) reported@giffgaff worse customer service ever. Can't be bothered helping when there is something wrong so you have to try and cobble your way through their community hoping someone else has had the same problem. Stop trying to be quirky and try being helpful

giffgaff (@giffgaff) reported@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
