Thanks for the thread. I am now ditching GiffGaff. A £10 giffgaff credit lasts me 3-4 months, so changing that to free = a £3/month saving.

Just received my SIM and tried to set it up.
Clicking the email led to a blank email page, I put on there everything that was on the SIM card, ie all the numbers and my name .
Is that OK.
Do you get a reply email saying all is done?
Thanks

Got my RWG sim today. How long after emailing them from the link in the email until the Free bundle gets activated? I would have thought you could just do it on the phone but not possible.

1h24mins (on a Wednesday). Confirmed w/ a reply email.

When I clicked on the red box for the free bundle it took me to a blank outgoing email page to support at RWG. No more instructions.
Now 45 mins since I sent the email, not yet connected.
Edit Ah I see it took Gavinbaxter 1hr 24 mins

Yes you need a cut from their free revenue!
One further question, I see you cannot set up an account, can you tell how many free units you are using during the month.
