    @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

    @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 :)

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

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

  • 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

    @slut4satanism Giffgaff for me too. Also good if you never want to have to speak to customer service on the phone

  • dom209 Dom (@dom209) reported

    @mouthwaite @caitlinmoran @EE GiffGaff is O2's budget brand so uses their network. Voxi is Vodaphone's. Might be worth checking signal coverage where you are...

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

    @giffgaff Day 3 and my elderly disabled mother's internet is still off, unresolved, and now that they realised its their fault it is back to ignoring me. WORST "CUSTOMER SERVICE" EVER!

  • diswhorientated Diswhorientated (@diswhorientated) reported

    @slut4satanism I use Giffgaff. Getting a work phone is a good move, when you're not working you can switch it off and forget all about annoying clients

  • Scott1984FP Scott1984FP (@Scott1984FP) reported from Bedford, England

    May Switch To: @GiffGaff #PAYG & Make 1-2 Texts Or Phone Calls Every 6 Months To Keep Numbers For 2 Mobiles :/ :) Considering You Think Biggest Uk Mobile Network & Great, You Make Very Expensive & Limited/Caps On Mobiles & Complicated :/ :( @WhichUk ,Big Uk Networks Mug Us Off

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

    @giffgaff Clearly this isn't based on your customer service... 17hours since I last heard from your "agent"
