    @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?!

  • e_gran Lynda D💙 (@e_gran) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @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.

  • luv2chat2ya Serena (@luv2chat2ya) reported

    @giffgaff Don't know how since the reception/network has been appalling since yesterday morning. How can you take people's money and give crap network in return! Your customer service agents don't even respond to messages. I just purchased another goodybag and want my money back.

  • jlo_fromdawoo JLo Da **** (@jlo_fromdawoo) reported

    @giffgaff I'm not impressed how after my data pack expired today, giffgaff stop my WiFi from loading pages other than the "Buy More Giff Gaff" page. Turn off mobile data, WiFi works again. It's made me seriously consider an alternative network.

  • mary_yeung M (@mary_yeung) reported

    @giffgaff I’d love to reach out to your team but giff gaff likes to hide contact details and make us read forums and blogs. I have moved to another phone network - cannot log in, what do I do?
