    @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 Hi, I'm experiencing problems with data for the third day running. No reception at all today in CF11 8AT

  • 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

    @ARX7Laevatein Had one while back similar, all UK mobile networks support 7726 Spam reporting (might be different for ppl on MVNOs e.g. Giffgaff, Tesco Mobile, Asda mobile Voxi e.t.c. so you might have to check) plus it's FREE too

  • Juicenglish BIG JUICE (@Juicenglish) reported

    ****** with GiffGaff never answer on the first attempt 🙄

  • DanAlder80 Danny Alder (@DanAlder80) reported

    Shocking service from @giffgaff . Recommend I change to 5g SIM and tell me it will take up 24 hours to activate. 50+ hours later and still no one can call me or text me. Escalate to technical team who say it will take up to 5 working days. No offer of refund. Disgusting.

  • mcaslan7 Thomas McAslan (@mcaslan7) reported

    @giffgaff hi there no can hear me on other end I switch from a iPhone coz I assumed that was problem now@I have unboxed a iPhone 12 Pro and still still issue can you help ? Does the network have a problem

  • Yorksims John Woods (@Yorksims) reported

    @SigniusNetworks @O2 @giffgaff Given that the latest Ofcom auction for 5G spectrum has only just taken place so the networks now know which frequencies they own,it'll be years rather than months before any network has any kind of meaningful national 5G coverage.

  • moses1905 Moses1905 (@moses1905) reported

    @giffgaff you certainly are a different network I have waited nearly a month for the money you owe me for trading in my old iphone customer service is crap not even given a call you are a joke

  • davidlharrison David Harrison. BLM 🇮🇪🇬🇧🇬🇷🇪🇺 (@davidlharrison) reported

    @rach0907 I'm using Giffgaff - great if you don't need regular customer service as most of that is farmed out to the user community. Prices are decent and uses the 02 network behind the scenes.

  • moses1905 Moses1905 (@moses1905) reported

    @giffgaff I received no update or wasn’t informed again your customer service is rubbish where is my money???
