Is Giffgaff going under?
Folks, Ther appears to be an ongoing issue with Giffgaff that has been taking place for a number of weeks and I am beginning to wonder whether there is an issue with the finances of the company.

I have been a Loyal Vodafone customer since 2008 and have always spoken highly of the company. In late September I had the opportunity to upgrade my contract; I took up on the offer, however, this time downgraded my tariff from 3000 minutes to 1200 minutes with free off peak calls, on the advice given by your upgrade team.…

3Pay is it still the best for my teenager!
Hi Everyone, My eldest (15 years old) and I have mobile phones on 3Pay. We get 150MB of data, 25 text and free 3 to 3 calls for 90 days, for a £5 topup. This means that even if she uses her 150MB and £5 on the internet she can still call me. So that gets rid of all her excuses apart from I forgot to charge up my mobile, I…

Orange Sydney
I bought an Orange Sydney mobile to be used mainly as an emergency phone, but also to access internet via wi-fi. I have to say it has been an extremely frustating time caused mainly by a totally inadequate user guide. I expected the touchscreen to make text input a simple process via a full onscreen QWERTY keyboard. No -…

Had to contact Orange today, admittedly I kept hanging up and redialling when I got an Indian, but once through to UK, I had the best service that anyone could ask for. Polite, helpful and friendly, took control of my 'problem', sorted most of it instantly, then said I will call back on the other point. 10 minutes later…

Moved provider to giff gaff. Couldn't be happier
I'm so used to getting stupidly high bills on my mobile - I started on a £45/pcm tarrif, which I dropped to £35. I regularly went over my 300 free minutes and in recent months it was £45-70! Recently came out of contract - a friend cryptically said "giffgaff" on my facebook question of 'who to go with'. I thought he was…

So my sister sends off her iPhone to be repaired. She backed it up via iTunes, restored it (as the original statement from seller was a replacement) & then returned it. Phone has apparently been repaired (we'll see), and if at all possible, she'd like to get all her texts back on there, as well as settings & all the rest.…

Can this be correct? I thought retailers are compelled to offer 12 months warranty on all purchases. Bearing in mind this phone has a…

Buying new phone on PAYG cos it's cheaper than SIM free
As it stands I've got an old o2 simplicity monthly contract, which is really good and isn't available anymore. I certainly don't want to lose it. But... I need a new phone. Phones 4U have the phone I want SIM free for £300 or £180 on PAYG + £10 top up so it's a no brainer. The phone appears unlocked so I can get it on any…

Problems with Orange contract - anyone else?
I renewed my Orange contract in October 2010, taking out a 21 month contract meaning I should be eligible for an upgrade in June 2012. When I called up to confirm the exact date I could upgrade, and to see if I can do it earlier, I was told me contract end date was in April 2013. For some reason they have the completely…
