    @giffgaff seems lately the data connection in the city centre is kinda flakey. Using a Pixel 6A and indoors in the Arndale/around NQ I can barely seem to get H/H+. Been like this a couple weeks now. Any issues?

    @NickSan85494149 @O2 It's a really good phone,o2's signal is shocking! Giffgaff runs off the back of it,even worse.

  • FRibenfors Dr Francesca Ribenfors (@FRibenfors) reported

    @CPMumma79 GiffGaff is excellent for cheap monthly contracts. (Around £8-£10 a month but with unlimited minutes and cancel any time)

  • WaltFrench Walt☮️(We/Us) Just Enough to be Dangerous (@WaltFrench) reported

    @eric_e @gassee @stevesi It seems the virtual networks can’t use estimate. Pity; I’ve had excellent support from GiffGaff—which runs on O₂ that DOES support sims—while in the UK

    @giffgaff I can't use this link...I am not a customer so have no log in details. Amy way I can actually 'talk' to someone regarding this?

  • germanmancgirl Pet (@germanmancgirl) reported

    @giffgaff your customer service is a shambles! Received a faulty phone. Apple has got a record from previous owner that it had same fault! Can’t get in touch with anybody? I need this replacing asap as my daughter is off to Japan on Monday for 12 month and needs this phone!?

    @mellymeluk @giffgaff It's @O2 their signal us shockingly bad

  • LeeAaronP Lee Aaron (@LeeAaronP) reported

    I'm not going to go into other benefits, or customer service quality, but the other thing to consider is what network these smaller companies use.. ID use the Three network, Tesco, Sky, Virgin and GiffGaff use the O2 network. EE use their own, and Vodafone/O2 share masts...
