    @just_j0 What network is she with Jo? I had to move from EE to GiffGaff. Although I'm nowhere near Huddersfield. But I've had many friends have to switch from EE. GiffGaff use 02 so anyone offering good O2 rates.

    @BobbyCombellack Hi Bobby. It can take up to 24 hours from yactivation for your service to be fully up and running. During this time we recommend that you reboot your phone off and on again a few times, to help speed this up - giffgaff Jade

    All the lights flickered & then our local neighbourhood had a power outage. Lasted about 4mins but local WAN seems to be down for multiple ISPs/methods... (Virgin broadband/EE 4G/Giffgaff(O2) 4G). Interesting breakage! ⚡

  • CammieRacing Cammie Racing (@CammieRacing) reported

    @giffgaff Your help system doesn't cater to my problem so whatever I put, it asks for things that aren't relevant. i.e royal mail tracking - you sent my phone back via DHL and I have it. your system is set up to be anticonsumer to avoid having people contact you directly...

  • LaraJBotha Lara Botha (@LaraJBotha) reported

    @giffgaff @g_mundaw Having same issue - apparently an O2 issue? Can anything be done as need sms to get onto my work laptop!

  • LaraJBotha Lara Botha (@LaraJBotha) reported

    @giffgaff I’m not sure as it’s only my code from work that I’m waiting for but don’t know what network that comes from

  • Elizabe26847228 Lily Hale is a 🧁 (@Elizabe26847228) reported

    @giffgaff I’ve just tried it on my phone instead of my desktop and I’m still having the same issue.

    @ITarran We're very sorry to hear this. Please can you provide your full UK postcode via DM, so we can check for issues in the area - giffgaff Jade

  • Elizabe26847228 Lily Hale is a 🧁 (@Elizabe26847228) reported

    @giffgaff I just tried to use safari instead of chrome and I am still having the same issue. I can log into the normal website with no issue but not the trade in page.

  • graemefraser Graeme Fraser (@graemefraser) reported

    @AntPHenderson I've been doing it for about years now. I use giffgaff for network and typically buy directly the phone from Google.
