    @RachelOrr I think you can just get a phone…it doesn’t have to have a giffgaff SIM (but check on that). However, GG is so cheap and easy and you can change plans or cancel with no contract. We have both been with them for years and years.

    @giffgaff I got a payg sim for my spare phone yesterday and spent 30 quid on credit so I can use it as a data tethering device for my laptop at home. Live in a rural area so no fibre broadband option. Sadly, there is zero 4G signal. I thought all networks had this sorted?!

    @ProveIt78 We're really sorry to hear that's not working for you. What happens whenever you try to do that? - giffgaff Emer.

  • radiocode1969 Lee Wiltshire 💙 (@radiocode1969) reported

    @2I0Fvx That’s the backup plan - I have plenty of old phones that I can give her, with a giffgaff SIM. It’s interesting that all of the major apps (Signal, WhatsApp, etc) rely on having a mobile number, which gets passed on.

  • ProveIt78 Andy Holding (@ProveIt78) reported

    @giffgaff I see other people are getting their issues answered via Twitter - send us a DM and we’ll look into it etc. But not me. Why is that?

    @giffgaff Hi, I received a text today from 43431 saying that I have used all of my data & will be charged 10p/MB & if I want to renew my good bag (a week early) to follow the link! Never happened before & Ive been with you for 1 year. Scam or genuine from GiffGaff? Thanks.

  • Viking_Sarah_1 Sarah the Crazy (@Viking_Sarah_1) reported

    @nicklesby79 Oh I thought you meant home wifi not also 4G. I have Shell for home and @GiffGaff for mobile. GiffGaff are part of O2 so use their network. Brilliant reception and very cheap!

  • GaslightMillie The Gaffer 🇾🇪 (@GaslightMillie) reported

    @giffgaff @AshJamIng Since the start, would never go anywhere else

    @daazioor Okay, former telecommunications engineer here anything powered by EE is gonna have best covage as the do emergency services, O2 are a bit meh but does the job and Vodafone is using Huawei and three are hit and miss. Giffgaff is O2

  • Mlle_LeVell Mademoiselle LeVell 3.5% funny ✊🏽 💚 (@Mlle_LeVell) reported

    @giffgaff Thanks. I’m quite surprised though. This has never happened before and I can’t work out why I’ve suddenly used so much more data. Any ideas? I’m normally at home & connected to WiFi.
