Giff gaff is niff naff

Hi

Tried niff naff for a few months. Found the whole experience a nightmare, can,t speak to anyone, stuck in email loops, can,t reply to messages started by agents, poor signal.

So moving on, I was using their data package on an I pad.

Any ideas of who I can use?

If you want data and lots of it I think 3 is the realistic alternative if you don't want GG.

As has been said above, Three are the only realistic option if you want plenty of data at a good price. Make sure you check their coverage and have a look where their transmitters are before you sign up.

But that map doesn't say which transmitters are whose!

T-mobile is good for 3G coverage & is reliable.You can get a £5 booster for Internet & can always browse for no extra charge-no matter how much data you use.

Yes it does. You need to enter the postcode you want to check and click on a blue pin. The information you want is on the left hand side of the map.

Thanks. I didn't realize those blue icons were also links! I presume these things transmit 360°? I have identified two masts, each about a mile away, one is less powerful (18 dBW) but with clear line of sight from one side of my house. The other is 26 dBW but with housing in between; which transmitter would give me better mobile broadband?

You haven't mentioned that you would have to view over 500 adverts to get that 1GB! At least, I think that is what is implied on this page.... http://ovivomobile.com/23/our-offer/the-ovivo-tablet-mobile-broadband-tariff/

you do get adverts but there is a way of stopping them, a mate uses them and she stopped the adverts i think on their site it tells you how to do that.
