    @giffgaff If there are steps that can magically enable your network to be 4G or 5G, why not share them here so everybody can benefit?

  • bluedonkey John Gordon (@bluedonkey) reported

    How is it possible that I am still stuck on a 3G network with @giffgaff when I signed up for a 5G plan. They should at least have 100% LTE/4G by now. Monthly cost in the US might be higher, but at least we get a decent network. #fail

    @O2 You need to sort your network out there are loads of giffgaff users that can’t use there phones

    @giffgaff I haven't received an email to reset my account. I just want to cancel my subscription please.

    @Iolachristina @victoriasanusi Was literally about to type this ! Giffgaff network and internet is so worth it if you can buy the phone outright ..

  • VModifiedMind Vince (@VModifiedMind) reported

    @alexbloor @Johndevine @giffgaff Nope. They won’t. It’s at trial and they won’t issue any new ones. They’ll replace existing ones if you swap handset but that’s it. It exists but is still in trial stage. But they do exist.

    @MartinSLewis Been with @giffgaff for a few years and buy a £6 goodybag monthly. Never had any issues and they have a great community forum to help if there are any problems. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.

    @giffgaff What's happening? It's been two days that the network is unavailable. Today it is worse. I could hardly send this reply after hours of trying. Please fix it ASAP. Working from home is a struggle.

    @giffgaff This is a joke there is a problem in the network and nothing is working it needs sorting out

  • _SandraWindsor SandraWindsor (@_SandraWindsor) reported

    @thepipkins @Judymal3 @ThreeUK If you want the 3 network, get a Smarty sim. I got unlimited data for £16 via MSE website (or maybe another comparison site ?? - worth shopping around). For Vodafone try VOXI, or GiffGaff for O2
