    @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

    @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 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!

    @giffgaff we have been trying to deactivate out giffgaff card which seem to be impossible. Please can someone from customer service contact us to sort this out?!

  • Cookie1320 Cookie1320 (@Cookie1320) reported

    Been with @giffgaff for almost 10 years & been very happy with the service I’ve received. Unfortunately I’m looking at purchasing an Iwatch with cellular as this would be ideal when I’m out running. Does giffgaff have any intention on supplying eSIM facilities for its customers?

  • oozdelune vvv (@oozdelune) reported

    giffgaff are hilarious if they think I’m buying another damn goodybag I’ve bought like five since September!!!!! even within fair usage my connection is *** !!!!

  • issieingram Isobel Ingram (@issieingram) reported

    @giffgaff HELP! My niece has been cut off due to being out of the UK for over 60 days... she's in the Royal Navy! Is there anything we can do in this situation? Surely our troops are exempt from this rule??

  • carlaclarke2 carla clarke (@carlaclarke2) reported

    @Matthew_Wright @VodafoneUK Giffgaff never had a problem in 6 years

  • ApolloBelladona ☆ Apollo ★ (@ApolloBelladona) reported

    Is there a bug with your website, cos my @giffgaff #Goodybag reacured by itself. I got a text notifying me few days before. I checked account as I never use this option but no recurrence was set. Now it has kicked in without my authorisation. 🤔
