    @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 :)

  • 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

  • mrstevehuw Steve Huw (@mrstevehuw) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @giffgaff It’s a shame that your signal where I live has gone terrible. Never used to be like this. What’s changed? Going to have to look for a different provider… 🙁

  • lisadoe24 Lisa Doe (@lisadoe24) reported from Cowbridge with Llanblethian, Wales

    @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!

  • 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

  • Asgharki AzKhaaan × (@Asgharki) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @Pogit @giffgaff That consumer law (Consumer Rights Act 2015) requires you to prove that the problem was down to a fault or issue at the manufacturer, as opposed to wear and tear or misuse. So you need an engineer's report ideally from Apple to prove the phone was faulty when they made it.

  • SOLIDLIQUID5 SOLID LIQUID (@SOLIDLIQUID5) reported

    @giffgaff the mobile network run by me really you pay me for this ? bullsh word mobile ney=work ran by imbeciles or no one ran by nobody . just free money for no service literally no support and no signal your price should be a quarter of what it is really . just send the deadlock letter

  • smallprintsfoto Donna Gray (@smallprintsfoto) reported

    @O2 @giffgaff with another weather warning for this week can you tell me what contingency plans you have for the AB36 & AB54 areas? We have lost all signal with power cuts for many days during the last 2 storms. Meaning no communication for large parts of @Aberdeenshire

  • heafod Ian Head (@heafod) reported

    @Plusnet I recommended a friend to Plusnet. He has his new Plusnet SIM but his phone is locked to Giffgaff. He has a PAC code but not a PUK code. If I call you while he is next to me can we sort out the problem so that he can unlock his phone and start using his Plusnet SIM?
