Adrian H Beeby (@AdrianBeeby) reported from Chorley, England@ThreeUK Data is as ‘okay’ if you could ever get a signal but then prices got crazy.

Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, EnglandI didn’t want to change mobile provider. But I was told this was the only way I could keep my service bill at a level I could afford. I was very happy with the PAYG service I had from @giffgaff, and did not want to change, but it was that or a surcharge.

Nicola McGee (@MissMcLovin84) reported from Manchester, England@giffgaff absolute disgusting service from yourselves and the repair team.

Signius (@SigniusNetworks) reported@Jenny_1884 Dont stress about it @GiffGaff 5G is significantly slower than their 4G. Been like it for years, same on multiple different handsets & waste of time reporting it. Smarty has much better 5G coverage & speeds in my area. But overall 5G is really ****.
