  • pachallis Peter Challis (@pachallis) reported from Fareham, England

    @notmany4benny @carterBFC @SamsungUK One of the disadvantages of living in rural locations. At least you must have beautiful views instead. I had problems with Three and I live 200m from a transmitter where I get flaky voice calls. Apparently I need a Three supplied phone to get VOLTE. Currently on O2/Giffgaff.

  • ChrisOverthrow Chris Overthrow (@ChrisOverthrow) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @brendonvbone I was with giffgaff (o2) and its bollocks. Now with Vodafone. I get decent signal apart from half time. At half time I can get some internet but it's very slow. That's unavoidable with 18k people all using their phones though.

    @O2 @giffgaff with another weather warning for this week can you tell me what contingency plans you have for the AB36 & AB54 areas? We have lost all signal with power cuts for many days during the last 2 storms. Meaning no communication for large parts of @Aberdeenshire

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks for the help I’ve looked at sending the phone in for repair but it advises about repair costs and a £15 return fee. I want to know if it will be replaced using existing consumer laws a £1300 should last more than 2.5 years Apple agree but said contact GiffGaff the retailer
