  • Jacey_T Jane T (@Jacey_T) reported

    @amscanlon Can't help on iphones but I've had own phone and SIM deal for years. Look at Lebara and GiffGaff. Can get deals for around £5 per month. She won't need loads of data. Do a comparison on uswitch or similar.

    @romk1n That's strange. We'd recommend trying a different browser and device, to see if the issue occurs again. If so, send us a DM for further help. - giffgaff Jeanette

    @thefunmoneyclub @TheO2 I pay 1p a month with Lebara. It goes up to £6 after 6 months. Get way more minutes and data than I did on Giffgaff. Voda network piggyback. Highly recommended.

    @djillings @O2 Switch to @giffgaff mate. They use O2 network but a hell of a lot cheaper 👌🏼

    @DaveSThompson @sonya_grattan I told EE I’m hopefully going to join a phone Co op (or giffgaff) when I finish my contract. EE have no loyalty to longstanding customers. I pay more for my service than most people I know! Have complained but got fobbed off with crap excuses 🤯🤬

    @ColinBrazierTV Cancel. Buy a phone cash & go to @giffgaff You won't regret it

  • sieco sie evans (@sieco) reported

    @giffgaff Hi, my postcode is SM5 3AG O2 initially said it was due to a fault about 2 weeks ago, now their service checker states it's due to being a busy area! Data is pretty much unusable now which is the only reason I signed up to Giffgaff. No problems for the last year or so.

  • sieco sie evans (@sieco) reported

    @giffgaff No good to me, I need a proper service, this has nothing to do with the service being 'busy' and a lot to do with O2 not fixing or upgrading equipment. Looks like i'm off to vodafone......

  • sieco sie evans (@sieco) reported

    @giffgaff I swapped to your service due to the better data coverage in my area, now it's dropped out to virtually no data, much worse in the evenings, almost unusable. When will this be fixed? I'll need to switch providers if it continues for much longer. I use two of your sims.
