    @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

    @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

  • 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

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

    @OMG_so_annoying Hi Angie. We're so sorry to hear that you're having problems topping up. What happens whenever you try to do this? - giffgaff Emer.

  • epicfail2048 Tom (@epicfail2048) reported

    @giffgaff hi my daughters phone has no service? All other family members unaffected , faulty sum card?

  • ClaydonNai Nai Claydon (@ClaydonNai) reported

    @giffgaff Messages were sent to giffgaff ask an agent earlier this morning - still nothing. No response. No help. No hope?

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

    @VerbingNouns We're very sorry to hear this, Lauren. Please can you provide your full UK postcode via DM, so we can check for issues in the area - giffgaff Jade

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

    @epicfail2048 We're not sure Tom. You could try the SIM in another phone to see if this helps at all. If not, then it could be the SIM at fault. Send us a DM however and we can check the account to ensure no issues are showing on the account. - giffgaff Jeanette

  • VerbingNouns Lauren ''No Chill'' Ackerman (@VerbingNouns) reported

    my experience with giffgaff has been completely stellar in all ways except one: for some reason, whenever i get a new phone, or new sim, there is a period of time where nothing works and it SUCKS. like the first time i was in barcelona before roaming. no data the WHOLE time. 😩

    @Pulpsong Oh dear, Wayne. Please can you clear your cache, cookies and web history then try this again. Please also try using a different browser or device, as this should help - giffgaff Jade

  • Torexeon Torexeon (@Torexeon) reported

    @giffgaff It’s cheaper and a much better deal than any other network!

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

    @Cxrtxn_47 Hi Andrew. As we're a SIM only network, this means that we wouldn't release the operating system updates, and this would come directly from the manufacturer of the phone. - giffgaff Emer.

    @OMG_so_annoying Our website is back up and running as normal Angie, so that's strange. Can you try clearing the cache and cookies on your browser and try accessing our website again? If you have the same problems, please try that out using another internet browser or device. - giffgaff Emer.
