    @giffgaff Yes, I have. It has been quite the awful experience. I think the time could have been spent more productively by trying to make a time machine out of whatever random items I can find behind the sofa, in an attempt to take back the hours giffgaff's inept agents have taken from me

  • woldsweather Trevor Appleton (@woldsweather) reported

    @giffgaff She's now got H+ signal and emails come through without us doing anything other than I rang her and that worked then messages came in.

  • kksinn ... (@kksinn) reported

    @giffgaff Hi, I’ve received the phone and the sim card but never received a confirmation email for the order and with my giffgaff user details so unable to cancel the goodybag so I don’t get charged next month. What to do in this situation?

  • Karlsmi00479109 Woof! (@Karlsmi00479109) reported

    @giffgaff Do you not provide people with a phone number to get in touch. I find it strange that giffgaff can never be reached and expect the impossible from customers.

    @AnnaTulchi @giffgaff @O2 Hello Anna very sorry to hear that have you tried powering the mobile phone off and back on to see if your signal comes back ??

  • martinlmnt Martin (@martinlmnt) reported

    Also cracking service from @giffgaff - hopefully more 5G coverage soon but 4g is better than it was before! 🤩

  • benno44775 Beano (@benno44775) reported

    @woldsweather @giffgaff Hey Trevor have you tried powering it off and on to see if this helps reset the network connection ?

  • Lefthanded_Linz lindsay (@Lefthanded_Linz) reported

    @TommiesGuides @Andy2Gd @giffgaff I’m on O2 for work and EE for my own. 9/10 times I have to use my own phone to do anything - O2 just has poor coverage. Not great for lone working as my employers do not know if I am safe or not! 🙄

  • benno44775 Beano (@benno44775) reported

    @NblookM @giffgaff I was in Glasgow last month and had 5g no issues. You tried turning the phone off and on to reset the network service ?

    @BreakIntoProg @ZxSpectROM I'm on giffgaff, low cost, decent service (o2 network coverage) and 5G
