    @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.

  • 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.

    @giffgaff Hey GiffGaff, currently trying to find out how much I have left to repay on my phone (purchased with RateSetter) but when I click onto manage my repayments the page just loops back and nothing shows, please help?

    @JasonGood @Lucy_cat_lady Giffgaff is a virtual provider run by o2 but cheaper because there isn’t anyone to contact if you have a problem. There’s a members forum for support. Tesco mobile is also on o2. Just different platforms to appeal to different types of customers.

    @lottyburns @ThreeUK PlusNet works extremely well. Still free roaming. I’m paying just over £8 now for 15Gb data & unlimited minutes & texts. Left GiffGaff as had issues making calls when abroad.

    @giffgaff I bought one months phone sim use, you have taken a second months and an email saying "thanks for sticking with us". How do I cancel, your website has me going round in circles. I only wanted the month I requested.

    @giffgaff @Ben43178051 Might be worth @giffgaff updating your "Service Update" page, which is confusing all of us by telling us that the website, app and login are all operational, when clearly they are not!

  • Cocksuckinspun1 Cocksuckinspunkdump (@Cocksuckinspun1) reported

    @giffgaff so unless you add a bloody pin number the Dibby bastards at this shoddy network refuse u access to voice mail
