  • 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

  • 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 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 :)

  • 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… 🙁

  • loriwilsonYW Lori (@loriwilsonYW) reported

    @giffgaff can someone DM me please? I have logged a support note but can’t wait 24 hours and need help! Thanks

  • ScarletSiren27 HiJinX ♥️ ScarletSiren ♥️ (@ScarletSiren27) reported

    @giffgaff you sold me a phone that does not accept a SIM card. Permanently no service. Yes it was refurbished but you clearly didn’t run it through checks before you made money from it !

  • asaltyplace kay (@asaltyplace) reported

    @giffgaff Hi, I contacted someone from the team and I didn’t get my issue fixed. I still have not received my receipt from my £20 goodybag and it hasn’t been activated yet. What should I do

  • asaltyplace kay (@asaltyplace) reported

    @giffgaff Still haven’t heard anything back, still stuck here and still have the same issue, i don’t mean to be rude but I need this urgently fixed. Is there any number I can call?

  • Tindayasondag Manuela 🦀 (@Tindayasondag) reported

    @VodafoneUK You know what? I just checked Giffgaff and they can provide the service. Plus the have unlimited data for £35 not like Vodafone pay as you go that costs £40. I can’t keep wasting my time with Vodafone..

  • JSB93x Jordan (@JSB93x) reported

    @giffgaff @AshJamIng Flexible payment plans/Goody bags. Any issues are usually resolved quickly. Only thing I dislike is I can’t chose my date of repayment for my goody bag and it comes out on the 14th - that’s the only issue I have.

  • IneedJob21 beans (@IneedJob21) reported

    @TenzurOnYT @TaigaGN I worded it in a bad way, I meant why would anyone name a company giffgaff
