The goodybank - helping members in need

chainhurstman

Excellent scheme, and all in favour, but should be run as a registered charity so that giffgaff can re-claim tax paid ("Gift Aid") on all donations made by UK tax payers.

ray2 One quick question i normally use paypal to top up as i don't want my card stored on my account,when donating my card details will not be saved anywhere will they?

I had to fill my details in and I've used the same card with giffgaff before so I'm guessing they aren't stored don't know whether someone else can confirm though?

Well done everyone it's lovely to see.
I hope everyone watched the music concert on the bbc the other day.
If you haven't it's sooooo worth it and reminds us all of what is now and what's happening

The first delivery of meals have been received before 12 today I'm told.
350 reasons to be proud and cheerful
Well done to my fellow volunteers

Fellow Giff-gaffers , next week I'm part of a team at my workplace who are delivering between 200 to 500 meals to NHS staff at a nearby London Hospital.
It's voluntary work and we all will be protected and my only job for 6 hours will be packing fresh food made by our chefs and loading onto a van.
How easy is that.
It's part of a massive operation and I can't wait to do it.
Have a great day and stay safe

As suggested earlier in this thread, a way to donate spare credit would be good.

As much as I applaud your initiative and welcome the support you guys have set up unfortunately I am self employed and currently not working so unable to financially support the good work you're doing. However, I would like to congratulate the team on their efforts to help struggling members and communities. Well done giffgaff 👍👋❤️

bobrobinson thanks Bob much appreciated my wife is a key worker and a giffgaff member also however she's still working so at least we have 1 income coming in. If things change we'll be in touch 👍

Hi guys, I never use my full data and during lockdown I am almost exclusively using WiFi. So, how about an option to roll over my remaining data each month and use my monthly goody bag purchase for the goody Bank? My data should last (in my case) 3 x £10.00 purchases so goody Bank gets £30 every 3 months I get a goody bag every 4th month. Just a thought. Stay safe guys.

getcarter great idea I would do this as well as I hardly use my data either
