    @gazza_d @KarlOnSea @girodilento I did hear that you are further down the priority list for bandwidth congestion with giffgaff than O2. (Also in a macho - mine is bigger than yours kind of way, I have more data than you are allowed buy, 40GB. Travelling a lot these days)

  • howlieT a box full of owls (@howlieT) reported

    @Yorksims @giffgaff Looks like it’s a my phone problem

  • neil_neilzone Neil Brown (@neil_neilzone) reported

    @smithsam @giffgaff I don’t understand the bit about connectivity and SMS. The SIM cannot receive an SMS (not a packet data service) without a data bundle?

  • smithsam Sam (@smithsam) reported

    @neil_neilzone @giffgaff I use the giffgaff SIM in my iPad when my iPhone has no signal, which makes receiving an SMS to my phone number (my iPad doesn’t get SMS at all) somewhat hard….

  • WalkWithWallace ℝ𝕠𝕓𝕚𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕒𝕔𝕖 👣 (@WalkWithWallace) reported

    @st_ev_e Kev's on GiffGaff and more often than not I've got a signal and he hasn't.

  • pro_sportmedia Pro Sport Media Group (@pro_sportmedia) reported

    Dear @giffgaff why oh why do I bother with your service I pay for 100gb I get nothing it Never WORKS pointless

  • ChrissyBImpact1 ChrissyB5150 (@ChrissyBImpact1) reported

    @giffgaff Sorted now, logged off and logged on and it corrected issue

  • jay18170051 Truckin Jay 🚛🚛🇬🇧 (@jay18170051) reported

    @giffgaff time to ditch giffgaff sick of low or no signal.

  • eimilefrances Eimíle (@eimilefrances) reported

    @giffgaff why does your data /internet access never work? it's either super slow despite a 4g connection, or it tells me I have 4g but never loads a single thing and tells me I have no internet connection. My friends and family are experiencing the same thing!!!!

  • LaaurenCunniff Lauren Cunniff (@LaaurenCunniff) reported

    @giffgaff is there something wrong with the 4G? For some reason I never seem to have good/strong internet. I don’t know if my signal is so bad in my area, but when I have full signal it does not always work

  • smithsam Sam (@smithsam) reported

    Seems my @giffgaff SIM is now useless, because GiffGaff now mandates connectivity to read the email/SMS code required to login to purchase any data, and I only use @giffgaff when I don’t have any other connectivity… #idiocy
