    @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 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

  • The_Chiros The Chiropractors (@The_Chiros) reported

    @giffgaff bought two £20 prepaid vouchers which were supposed to give us 80 mega or whatever bits of data. Had a lot of trouble connecting and then each only lasted about 10 minutes watching Netflix. What a rip off

  • AdzCrawford2003 Adam Crawford (@AdzCrawford2003) reported

    @altodev_ @jpdfive @giffgaff Ye but the O2 mobile network is meh. They are neck and neck with Three for being the slowest in the UK. Vodafone is so much faster than O2.

    @GhostlyBarry @realsb4feelings Switch to a different email address if you can. I'm at the point where I have to use a PAYG GiffGaff sim to do the validation. However, never been asked again.
