    @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!

  • Asgharki AzKhaaan × (@Asgharki) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

  • 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

  • PassionOnlineUK Faith @ Passion (@PassionOnlineUK) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

  • mrstevehuw Steve Huw (@mrstevehuw) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @giffgaff It’s a shame that your signal where I live has gone terrible. Never used to be like this. What’s changed? Going to have to look for a different provider… 🙁

    @giffgaff have you had any issues reported on the Isle of Skye? WiFi won't hold a signal now and hasn't done for a few weeks now

  • ED_of_all ED (@ED_of_all) reported

    @z52782 @giffgaff Relatively easily!? Here's the thing what if I don't have a driver's license? What if I cant find my passport and don't want to pull out half my house just so I have full access to the internet again? I just want to know why now have you done this? What was the problem before??

  • northernstars14 northern_stars (@northernstars14) reported

    🆘🆘🆘@giffgaff hi, I really need your help. My grandad is in Spain on holiday, he’s broke his hip and has covid. We are trying to top up his giffgaff phone, we’ve bought the voucher but the 43430 number isn’t working over there, he doesn’t have credit. Please help 🆘🆘🆘

  • SprinklesOfNuts Dani (@SprinklesOfNuts) reported

    I’d never been able to use another network’s SIM in it, until Dad said today that I could. So I’ve put my GiffGaff one in it and the signal is shite (to say the least).

  • robjone67901918 rob jones (@robjone67901918) reported

    @giffgaff @mobile_o2 @currysplc stop cold calling me everyday trying to get me to upgrade. call centre staff are rude, hang up & don’t listen when I refuse to give all my details. My current contract isn’t up for renewal & when it is it certainly won’t be with you shower of ****!

  • Mykiel_B MikeKAB (@Mykiel_B) reported

    @CharlieHaddon3 @giffgaff Hi Charlie, just adding credit doesn’t give you a goodybag. U hv to exchange the credit for a goodybag by dialing 43430 opt 2 from ur phone or online. In fact never add credit, just get a goodybag direct everytime otherwise soon as u add credit ur phone will start eating ur cred
