Unlimited goodybag

wedgington

sophiecollins978 it's sold as "always on" not unlimited. giffgaff isn't for higher data users it's finding which network is best for you. All networks need to make money so what is cheap on one won't be on another.

sophiecollins978 hello where have you seen unlimited data giffgaff don’t do it , what you bought is always on goodybag 40 gb at full speed then from 8am to midnight it’s reduced to 384 Kbps https://community.giffgaff.com/t5/Using-giffgaff/Guide-to-the-20-quot-Always-On-quot-goodybag/ta-p/17070641

its also subject to traffic flow https://community.giffgaff.com/t5/Learning-and-giffgaffer-articles/Traffic-Flow-Policy/ta-p/12999304

after midnight it's fine.
It's a good offer, if your splurging all your data hotspotting your console or something it won't work when youve used it all up.
I preferred it when it was twenty pound but 6gb does me a month

sophiecollins978 How on earth can you charge 25£ for “unlimited” data then slow the speeds down so much that i cant even use my data! Boycot giffgaff!!!!!

It's not unlimited data for the £25 goodybag it's 'always on' data, so the speed slows after 40gb has been used but is 'always on'
With our £25 "Always On" goodybag, members will experience:

40GB of UK data usage per month at full 4G speed with tethering allowed.
Once the 40GB of UK data has been used up, members will experience a reduced data speed of 384kbps from 8 am to midnight. From midnight to 7.59 am members will have a data allowance at full 4G speed.
Traffic Flow policy
applies to the £25 "Always On" goodybag.

Speed restrictions apply to our Always On data after 40GB of data usage (or 20GB in EU).
A 4G ready phone and coverage required to access 4G data speeds.
giffgaff does NOT offer any unlimited mobile data plans. A pure 'unlimited data' package doesn't restrict your data speed at any point. Our Always On goodybag is designed to give members peace of mind that they'll be connected.

hi
there no unlimited data on giffgaff

tradertall

this goodybag is a bad product and is detrimental to giffgaff's reputation

I sometimes wonder how anyone gets through 40GB of mobile data in a month! I’m on a £10 goodybag and don’t use anywhere near my 6GB allowance!!! Surely it would be much cheaper to get broadband and use WiFi?

tess_yvonne

This is why i just use my own wi fi at home and only use my data if im out or if i really have to use it at home i will

sophiecollins978 its ridiculous I agree. They need to offer a package that is not capped. Maybe charge a little more for the package. Either way 3 are offering unlimited calls internet and texts. With no slow downs. Used 50gb in 2 weeks still nice and fast.

Yeah it would be a great network if they charged a little more for unlimited speed, I'm using a s10 dual sim with giffgaff for calls and 3 for my data, wish I could just use 1 sim card. Would be easier.

andrewrawlinson18 Yeah it would be a great network if they charged a little more for unlimited speed

The question there is how much extra would you be willing to pay, realistically, for unlimited data at full speed?

datdad

Might be an idea to see if this suggestion had been made in the Labs section where you could add your support. It’s been some years since giffgaff offered unlimited data though it comes up regularly.

That old chestnut

andrewrawlinson18

Well I have a 12 month sim only contract with 3 and I get unlimited calls data and messages, with no slow down and personal hotspot included for £18 a month so I would say this is a good bench mark?

andrewrawlinson18

I think giffgaff is great for the kids phones £10 every 3 months and they can call each other as much as they like. This feature rocks!!
