    @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)

    @MartinSLewis Please note that price alone for a virtual network does not take priority into account. Example: giffgaff is a virtual network provider on O2's network. But the moment that there is contention (lots of people using it), O2 will give their own direct customers priority. 1/2

  • HelenKathTom Helen K Tomlinson (@HelenKathTom) reported

    @MartinSLewis £6 per month with giffgaff because it's good service and community

  • CodeNmeAngryMan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿𝙄𝙖𝙣 𝙈𝙘𝘾𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙚🇺🇦 🏴‍☠️ (@CodeNmeAngryMan) reported

    @tescomobile serious question, when topping up with yourselves will I need to deal with a two factor authentication hurdle or can I just sign in and top up? [been years since I was with Tesco mobile] GiffGaff are doing my head in with theirs.

  • VModifiedMind Vince (@VModifiedMind) reported

    @alexbloor @Johndevine @giffgaff Nope. They won’t. It’s at trial and they won’t issue any new ones. They’ll replace existing ones if you swap handset but that’s it. It exists but is still in trial stage. But they do exist.

  • White2Janice 🎀💜Janice 🍬🌺 (@White2Janice) reported

    @MartinSLewis Been with @giffgaff for a few years and buy a £6 goodybag monthly. Never had any issues and they have a great community forum to help if there are any problems. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.

  • TgJonah Toyosi Gregory-Jonah (@TgJonah) reported

    @Iolachristina @victoriasanusi Was literally about to type this ! Giffgaff network and internet is so worth it if you can buy the phone outright ..

  • giffgaff giffgaff | The mobile network run by you (@giffgaff) reported

    @callumstokes44 We're not aware of any issues with using top up vouchers, Callum. Have you tried dialing 43430 to add this? - giffgaff Jade

  • PhilipVaughan PhilipVaughan (@PhilipVaughan) reported

    @MartinSLewis It’s about giffgaff, right? I have paid less than £50 per month for 4 phones for 10 plus years. Data varies - 10, 20, unlimited - but the worst that happens if you run out a week early - buy another “Goodybag” (the name they give their tariffs). Probably happened 5 times.
