    @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

  • 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 :)

  • DamonLeigh The Wrestling Dad - Damon Leigh (@DamonLeigh) reported

    Anyone else had shocking "customer service" from @giffgaff ? My wife is in tears trying to access her account after her phone was stolen and they won't let her access anything due to security?! For all we know someone is using her account. Shocking.

  • NicholasPretzel Nicholas Pretzel (@NicholasPretzel) reported

    @mattgreencomedy Afraid not. I'm on giffgaff, but I would recommend them. Their PAYG is quite pricey, but the goodybags are very cheap. The cheapest £6/month. That gives unlimited calls, texts & 1GB data. Excellent service & coverage (they run on the O2 network). £35 gives you unlimited data.

  • sp_jimbob JSP (@sp_jimbob) reported

    @MKcol @O2 @lebara do you know which network they use? As they’ll get lower data priority compared to the actual carrier .. (eg. GiffGaff on o2)

  • monaghp Paul Monaghan (@monaghp) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks for the prompt reply. I had hoped that as a Virtual Network Operstor using O2’s platform you might have an offering.

  • twiwendyuk wendy (@twiwendyuk) reported

    @Mykiel_B @cristobalypunto @giffgaff My phone calls are even cut out, your DM CHAT SERVICE IS APPALLING, STOP FOBBING OFF AND GIVE PEOPLE AN ANSWER, #watchdog should look into how you guys are ripping me off and others

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

    @RJ_the_man87 We do understand that this would be very stressful for you. Please rest assured that we're working hard to resolve the issues with the mast, and based on the information you have shared with us we can see that the mast is estimated to be fixed on the 9th of June - giffgaff Jade

  • radeknaughty Radek R'adek (@radeknaughty) reported

    @Markngaz1 @giffgaff I've swap two cards already m8. Both are not working. Fresh goody bag has been paid.

  • RJ_the_man87 RJ (@RJ_the_man87) reported

    And @giffgaff - I need me phone for emergency contact with me disabled brother and elderly Aunt. I can't phone them or receive calls so its been a worry for last couple days with no signal (I have contact through other means but its annoying)

  • 1BenBaller Ben Baller (@1BenBaller) reported

    @emmagabarda @giffgaff Hopefully your number has transferred over now, but it's always worth restarting your phone periodically which can help complete the process.

  • craiglaurenc Craig (@craiglaurenc) reported

    Just requested a PAC code from @giffgaff shocking mobile data connection.. it never works. Can't wait to leave
