    @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 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

    @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

    @katfpoole Okay, thanks for clarifying that for us Kat. Normally it can take up to 24 hours for your services to resume as normal after a number transfer. Are you having any issues with your calls or texts? - giffgaff Nicole

  • MyShHolmes Sherlocks_Exception (@MyShHolmes) reported

    @SFabiani67 Order a sim card from giffgaff. I pay £6 a month (to keep my Brit phone #). I change sim card at airport before I fly out, when I land, all set. Various plans for more minutes/data & I upgrade when I travel. Always have internet access. Cancel when you're done with service/#.

    @DPDgroup_news I refused delivery for a @giffgaff phone on 25 May, but it still hasn't been returned. Can you please help?

  • pdog_ 🅿️🐕 (@pdog_) reported

    Hi @giffgaff. We set up a phone for our elderly parent, but she doesn't use the phone. Trying to cancel, but we don't have the phone to login. How do we cancel without just cancelling the DD? There doesn't seem to be a way to talk to anyone.

    I will be glad when @giffgaff bloody get round to fixing the broken antenna in Leeds Ls6. It's been 6 days now.....

  • pete42158873 pete (@pete42158873) reported
