    Been with giffgaff from the start, I did go back to O2 for a while, signal strength has always been the same, with all networks offering unlimited minutes and text, data now separates the providers

    @quigdes @O2 @ThreeUK Giffgaff actually uses the O2 network and it's cheap.

    @giffgaff Tried that Jeanette, sadly still nothing. All our data disappeared overnight and I’m trying to start the next goody bag early, it won’t work. Something is wrong…data couldn’t have been used and no way to fix it…help!

    Bought a refurbished phone from you @giffgaff in June for £139. It hasn’t been dropped or damaged but there’s no sound now when making & receiving calls and it’s shaky when filming. Repairs will cost £260 and this isn’t covered by my warranty. Really unhappy with this service
