    Woot! Goodbye @giffgaff with your awful, awful, horribly broken network that you don't care about (I did try), and hello actually being able to get data while out and about! 🎉🎉🎉

  • belowtwostudio Elizabeth (@belowtwostudio) reported

    @STEcopywriting @giffgaff Haha yes... Voxi/voki (can't remember the spelling) was a for like to giffgaff. I didn't move as GG has been reliable, good signal and easy to use. And I didn't need the volume of data the other was offering.

  • ExasperatedOf Daniel Morris (@ExasperatedOf) reported

    @popey 4.1 Mbps ADSL and signal loss of 46 (should be <21) at the FTTP pole port when @WeAreOpenreach last abandoned finishing our 2014 rollout. 4G for work via roof antenna 13km to mast, on GiffGaff 100GiB/mo golden goodybag. 4K would trash that allowance.

    @s_taylorforbes @giffgaff Exactly! I'm now wondering why I've stuck with the same network for nine years... #MarketingFail

  • notbrokenow John (@notbrokenow) reported

    @giffgaff this is crazy. if i had a smaller cell plan, of 5 GB per month, this wouldn't be an issue. but since i pay you more, i get screwed by these EU changes. getting a new SIM instead

  • Basmanrox Barry 💙😷🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@Basmanrox) reported

    @Beddy7865 Yes, it is a negative unfortunately but they are robust and “generally “ bug free. Go for a guaranteed refurb? We always use giffgaff refurbs for phones and never had a problems .

  • jane_touil Jane Touil (@jane_touil) reported

    @giffgaff I really need help Jeanette. I can’t get texts from my bank to verify purchases. Couldn’t pay for a hotel booking… It’s causing havoc!

    @abbybaby2402 We're not aware of any issues with the app Abby. Please try uninstalling the app and reinstalling it from your app store to see if this makes any difference. - giffgaff Jeanette
