    @xlizagx @ThreeUK @giffgaff My friends have so much trouble with them no signal or something to do with their data

  • daycoder hywel (@daycoder) reported

    Opened box with refurb phone from GiffGaff. Taking the phone out, the charging cable and SIM extractor fell out from the other side. But only the SIM extractor made it to the floor. The cable vanished on the way down. Completely baffled. Tiny wormhole?

  • V6xix6V V6xix6V (@V6xix6V) reported

    @giffgaff This has been going on for sometime but total signal loss about four days now. I do these other options but is something actually being done about this, if so how long until this gets somewhat resolved? How much longer do we just sit around and wait?

  • GreenwoodAd Adrian Greenwood (@GreenwoodAd) reported

    @giffgaff Can someone help me with a phone I’ve returned?

  • kendall1tau Ori (@kendall1tau) reported

    @O2 Aren’t you 50% owned by @TelefonicaUK ? who own 100% of @giffgaff ? The phone is locked to your network surely you must of come across the situation before and could help ?
