Giffgaff's biggest gaff!

GG's reasons for the price increase are that the people taking the lower priced SIM deals tend to be more interested in talk time than data so even though they've increased the data allowance last year for no extra cost they've now made a small price increase but also increased the amount of free minutes. Seems reasonable to me. Nobody said Giffgaff was the cheapest provider.

Yes, my OH's has gone up but she is getting more talk time and she is happy with that. Previously she got more data but hardly uses any of that and needed more minutes, so she is happy with this latest change.

There's uproar on the Giffgaff forum as they have upped their low usage goody bags cost by 20%! and for that they are trying to justify by increasing the number of free minuets, on a deal where most customers have minimum usage (I use less that 10 mins/month) so the extra time is useless.

I am like a lot of other of their customers are voting with their feet, I'm going to iD for £3.99/month. Giffgaff you really have cocked up big time. And it exposes the blatant lie that Giffgaff is run by it's users.

I quite like minuets. Any increase would be good.

I'm not keen on minuets, I prefer waltzes

I'm on the £7.50 goodie bag and happy that the minutes have increased as I regularly use up to or near my limit.

So the consensus seems to be that this isn't Giffgaff's biggest gaff after all.
