Will giffgaff offer more competitive bundles?

jasondavies9178

I’m a big fan of giffgaff and its offering however I have been aware for some time that other mobile providers have been offering attractive deals which would save me money. I would like to pay about £7.50 for about 3-4gb but this isn’t available yet. I wonder if giffgaff may soon feel some pressure to offer a few more competitive bundles? Just for information I mainly check martin Lewis MSE website for deals.

jasondavies9178 in the past couple of years giffgaff have tended to review their goodybag range twice a year. The last review was in February 2020 and before that, August 2019. So, there might be a review due fairly soon. As you can see from the post above, giffgaff are currently trialing a new £10 golden recurring bag. If it’s successful I would think they might extend it to other bags in the range, maybe even the smaller bags?
P.s. if it’s of any interest the Moneysaving Expert website has a couple of good deals at Lebara, £5 for 2GB, and, £7.99 for 8GB

jasondavies9178 if you pop on to the forum and create a few threads like this one, you will soon start earning a small amount of payback which will contribute towards your mobile cost and you will find that giffgaff then becomes much more competitive 😀

No it isn’t you have to take a 30 day contract to give them your bank details not easy to leave like PAYG

A goodybag is in essence the same as a one month contract, especially the proposed ‘Golden Goodybag’ where you have to switch on recurring with a payment/bank details.

kilnessi only for that goodybag I’ve no stored bank details all i use is top up vouchers

That might be so but if as you said elsewhere ‘i bet most of the members are on recurring goodybags’ those same members will have already provided/stored bank/payment details to giffgaff the same as a 30 day contract.
