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

  • 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

    @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

    @giffgaff I barely get more than a bar of coverage these days. The network coverage checker says a mast is down nearby, which has been the case before. Can we get it fixed once and for all, please? Might as well go to Three.

    @campbellclaret @kathy_c00l Check the terms of your provider. In the case of mine (giffgaff), roaming charges will apply to usage beyond my monthly bundle which, in practice, will mean data usage above 3gb (I *never* use that much).

  • wendylynnzhang ZiLin Zhang (@wendylynnzhang) reported

    @giffgaff Why is my network so bad, I have 4G but can't access the Internet, it makes me angry, I can't understand, why use data in this case

  • mo4g_777 mo4g (@mo4g_777) reported

    @BanaweerOsamah @giffgaff Second time no network ?

  • AshtonRakz Ashton rakz (@AshtonRakz) reported

    @1BenBaller @giffgaff Thanks will do that if the phone comes in bad condition!

  • LisaDicks03 Lisa ***** (@LisaDicks03) reported

    No service from @giffgaff for 2 weeks now, making our phones unusable. Giffgaff offer no help and keep changing when the “mast will be fixed” Anyone recommend an alternative mobile provider. We don’t want a contract. PAYG or 30 days please 🙏🏼

  • JamesFJoyce James Joyce (@JamesFJoyce) reported

    @giffgaff 20hrs since first contact with #giffgaff regarding an account hack, and no response. No urgency. No customer care. Similarly have been cut off twice during calls with #HSBC . Unbelievably awful service by both companies.

  • KevanRamsdale kevan ramsdale (@KevanRamsdale) reported

    @giffgaff Sorry, the EA2010 does not allow you to set the terms by which you provide a service your ignorant response is discrimination harassment & victimisation breaching S13 15 19 20 21 29 149 EA2010 need a response that complies with the law ie phonecall today
