giffgaff sim
Is there any way to use a giffgaff sim for receiving calls only without putting any credit on it? And if there is, how can I find out what the phone number is, as I can't make any outgoing calls to find out what the number is and the number isn't shown anywhere on the sim or the card the sim came on? The sim comes with £5…

Three have decided to "cancel" my current plan - at their convenience
I have been a three customer for a number of years - primarily because of their free Roaming deal that I took use of.

Is there any way to block and/or report spam texts from 'name' (not number)?
For a long time I've been receiving gambling-related spam texts from various numbers and kept reporting them to O2. This seemed to work, but now new SMSes don't show the number any more, just, say, CptMarlin - and it's not something from my Contacts. I cannot report them now. Well, I can, but after I forward it to O2, they…

GiffGaff lack of support
I have been with GiffGaff for many years without issue and I have largely been happy. However, I have never had a need for customer service before. Not a itty bitty problem but locked out of the network with no warning or explanation. Numerous requests made to their 'agents' but over a week later no meaning for response or…
