    @giffgaff I ordered the Huawei P30 yesterday and you guys have sent me the P30 Pro.. My moral compass feels bad for accepting this, please advise :)

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 This has always been an issue. We are with giffgaff whom I believe use your signal. I have tried everything. I have even bought a booster, but the reception coming into the booster isn’t enough to even make the booster work. Very frustrating. I have to sit in a window 4 reception

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @teamIPSE Without a doubt! And phone signal! It is appalling how bad the signal is in parts of the UK outside of London! I am 4 minutes from the Cardiff city centre with no signal! #howareyoumeanttorunabusiness @o2networks @O2 @giffgaff

    @giffgaff hi! I’m buying my mother a phone for her birthday and want to get a giffgaff sim to go in it. Went to order one on your website but whose name, email, number etc do you need? Mine (buying) or hers (customer)? Thanks!

    @giffgaff Oh I'm not complaining! 🙈 Just feel bad you sent me a higher model!

    @rlouisee82 @virginmedia Same iPhone works ok with a SIM from another carrier, iMessage and FaceTime activate straight away using a GIffGaff card so would indicate its a carrier issue

  • YikeyCrikey1990 Howard (@YikeyCrikey1990) reported

    Help me out! Whose the best phone network to go to? I'm thinking giffgaff or lebara? Anyone who dares suggest three or ee will be told to f**k off and blocked!

  • Hnc365 Howard Croston 🟠 🏁🇬🇧🇬🇬 (@Hnc365) reported

    @giffgaff @cag352 I left O2 with an expensive price increasing contract and came over to @giffgaff to get exactly the same network coverage and paying alot less for alot more data etc. I pay £10 a month for 15gb and often receive a goodybag extra of a further 1gb. Wife and family have now joined

  • archoptical Archoptical (@archoptical) reported

    @giffgaff I seem to have quite poor network on the mobile over the past 2-3 days. Very low signal, sometimes no 4g, in south-east London.

  • FalcondaleJan Jan Falcondale (@FalcondaleJan) reported

    Seems I'm going to have to part ways with @giffgaff which I'm sad about. My house is in a mobile blackspot and it's getting harder to persuade people to use my landline. And GiffGaff don't support WiFi calling in any useable way. Who's a good mobile provider without a contract?

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

    @ElenaHancock96 We don't provide eSIMs Elena, which is what most of the Apple watches would need, to be used with. You can use the Bluetooth function available, to help with calls, texts and different notifications. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • susalling I am Salling (@susalling) reported

    @cag352 @giffgaff I had GiffGaff for years and was very happy with it. Only reason I changed to Smarty (that I am also happy with) is that GiffGaff do not offer wifi calling. We have a bad signal here so wifi calling is useful.

  • btc8500 Jason (@btc8500) reported

    @giffgaff The last time I came back to giffgaff it was this bad for the download speed

  • virgiltracy1234 Mark Davies (@virgiltracy1234) reported
