    @thestrayferret I would say that data transfer rates have been shocking for years in town (unusable), im on GiffGaff that leverages the O2 network. Ive never had an issue with calls though.

    @just_j0 What network is she with Jo? I had to move from EE to GiffGaff. Although I'm nowhere near Huddersfield. But I've had many friends have to switch from EE. GiffGaff use 02 so anyone offering good O2 rates.

    @BobbyCombellack Hi Bobby. It can take up to 24 hours from yactivation for your service to be fully up and running. During this time we recommend that you reboot your phone off and on again a few times, to help speed this up - giffgaff Jade

    @MXOFO We don't do contracts as we're a PAYG network, however, we do have the option for our members to recur their goodybags monthly. As long as you have UK usage, you'll be eligible to use your goodybag in the EU. - giffgaff Tasbiya

    @thewobblywomble Oh dear, that's strange, Ceri. Please ensure that you have selected that you still need help, and if you're having the same problems, we would recommend trying that again using another internet browser or device. - giffgaff Emer.
