  • 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

  • katejones_cymru Kate Jones (@katejones_cymru) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @giffgaff I’ve tried the buy a goody bag, yesterday and today and it’s not working, my goody bag hasn’t been activated

  • 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!

  • 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… 🙁

  • 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 :)

  • markkitchen5 mark kitchen (@markkitchen5) reported

    @giffgaff Is it out of the realms of possibility to have someone call me just to put this issue to bed i mean it has been 4 months or is that not quite long enough

  • AnxietyYT AnxietyYT (@AnxietyYT) reported

    @HutchieV Ah dang, I’ve been with giffgaff before and it was terrible, it could have just been the area I was in though tbh

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

    @markkitchen5 We are an online only mobile network, meaning we do not have a customer service number, Mark. If you've contacted our agents through your account, please pass along your case reference number via DM, so we can chase this up with the team for you - giffgaff Jade

  • kitchenfaff Debbie (@kitchenfaff) reported

    @FelicityCloake @O2 Try GiffGaff - I think they even use the O2 network and are very reliable

  • ItsCallumtomz Callum (@ItsCallumtomz) reported

    Thankfully it’s only been 6 hours since @giffgaff went down, seems to be stabilising so I’ll hopefully be able to make a call within an hour or so

  • Superhip2_0 SnapOutOfIt (@Superhip2_0) reported

    @englishgirlm8 I pay £10 with giffgaff 15gb data and unlimited calls and text 👍 they are on the same network as o2 so get the same coverage. Have a good day

  • tania_nexust tania_nexust (@tania_nexust) reported

    @FelicityCloake @O2 Have you looked at Giffgaff? V reasonable costs, and I've been a customer for years with no issues (one tiny outage in service in all that time)

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @Doug_Paulley @giffgaff No,giffgaff don't support wifi calling yet and there's no news on when they will do.

  • michaelocyoung Michael Young (@michaelocyoung) reported

    @littlesthomebrw Hmm that's slightly disturbing - Sky Mobile (which I'm assuming you're on from the Passport Plus name) uses the O2 network, which isn't charging roaming fees (and nor are GiffGaff who also use O2) so this is just profiteering on Sky's part.
