    Anyone use Giffgaff?

    Considering switching to them, what's the service like, signal wise? They seem cheap & are run by O2 so it looks good to me?

    dont bother atm m8 they are just about to go thru some big changes with their goodybags, price,data,mins,texts, there will be no more unlimited data very shortly, Goodybag Community Consultation - The giffgaff community the service/signal is average at best, i would say you might be better off giving 3 ago SIM Only Deals - Pay As You Go Plans - Three ?15 unlimited data, and yes the piggy back the 02 network.

      They'd still offer 3gb if they took away unlimited for ?12 a month. Only O2 get signal in my house so I'd assume Giffgaff should get signal too? what you think?

        yes giffgaff runs on 02 so will get a signal, although ive read a few posts on gg forum saying the signal has been pish for the last few days mine included.

          You might get a signal, you might not. The big mobile companies sell off their old antennas to the little companies as they upgrade their own- that's why the deals always better with the smaller company, but the equipment inferior.

            Oddly enough the only place I have problems getting a GiffGaff signal on my phone is when I'm sat at my desk at work. Everywhere else it never seems to be a problem for me. I pay out ?10 a month on a Goodybag with them and haven't had any real problems that I've not had with other companies, 3, Orange, Voda, o2 but to name a few. It's PAYG try it and if you don't like it vote with your feet.
            My master plan is to live forever..... going to plan so far
            Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.

                One of the big problems with giff gaff is their lack of customer service and customer supports they depend on an online support community to solve your problems. There's no shop to take you're phone to when it goes tits up.

                    better off with 3s ?15 add on unlimited data, 300 mins 3000 texts, if you take out their ?15 1 month rolling contract you get free 3 to 3 as well but you have to pay by direct debit.
