    Giffgaff may be a shock (a bit crap) after being on the MBNL network.

    Giff gaff is dependent upon where you live re: signal I think,as I am with them andirons am having no problems *fingers crossed*..

    You can get a sim and try them for a month and of you don't like them your not contract tied...

    GiffGaff run on the O2 network so if O2 is fine for the OP the GiffGaff will be.

    It my experience it is worse, with more outages than o2, particularly with data. Pretty sure (at least it seems to) it runs on a lower priority than both o2 and Tesco.
