    @giffgaff Oh I'm not complaining! 🙈 Just feel bad you sent me a higher model!

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @teamIPSE Without a doubt! And phone signal! It is appalling how bad the signal is in parts of the UK outside of London! I am 4 minutes from the Cardiff city centre with no signal! #howareyoumeanttorunabusiness @o2networks @O2 @giffgaff

  • BradChanner Brad Channer (@BradChanner) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @O2 This has always been an issue. We are with giffgaff whom I believe use your signal. I have tried everything. I have even bought a booster, but the reception coming into the booster isn’t enough to even make the booster work. Very frustrating. I have to sit in a window 4 reception

    @giffgaff I ordered the Huawei P30 yesterday and you guys have sent me the P30 Pro.. My moral compass feels bad for accepting this, please advise :)

    @giffgaff hi! I’m buying my mother a phone for her birthday and want to get a giffgaff sim to go in it. Went to order one on your website but whose name, email, number etc do you need? Mine (buying) or hers (customer)? Thanks!

    @giffgaff I’ve just topped up £35 and now my balance is on £34.98 and I can’t get the golden goody bag and also your website is down to top-up and now it’s costing me out of my credit! Fuming I want a refund

  • andy_mallon Andy Mallon (@andy_mallon) reported

    @giffgaff I have tried this on another browser, it may be because my address on my bank card has changed and the website doesn't seem to be saving this when i try and update but not sure why paypal is also not working.

  • Dermgall Dermot Gallagher (@Dermgall) reported

    @LloydsBank Hi Laura- it was debit, I presume a direct debit. She received a new phone and needed a new sim, kept her number and it looks like giffgaff set up a new account, charged her for the new account but didn’t cancel the previous one. So she has paid 17months without realising.

    @Apnomis Oh dear, Simon. We're so sorry to hear this. Please send us a DM, and we can help you out with this. - giffgaff Emer.

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

    @STONEDOVE Networks use different frequencies to get 4G or 5G. If you've gotten a 5G SIM and are still only getting 4G, then it would seem your phone doesn't support the right frequency to get 5G with giffgaff. - giffgaff Jeanette

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

    @pmh2_patrick Please advise our phones team of this through the open case so that they can help to explain and assist her further. - giffgaff Ann

  • Ser_Pyrro P@ul is getting bored... (@Ser_Pyrro) reported

    @giffgaff @epilepsyaction Are you going to discuss the awful customer service???

  • franciskerr Frank Kerr (@franciskerr) reported

    @BBCNews What else do you expect from BT, absolutely rip off merchants. They took over Plusnet and now they are just as bad as them now. Switch to a Giffgaff or Tesco’s mobile for a far superior customer service.
