What phone are you using? You need to change the apn settings

Unfortunately, Apple devices have a tendency to replace giffgaff settings with O2's ones. You'll need to change them back.

Hi,

If your having issues getting the internet try this.

You can try sending a text 'settings' to 2020 and follow the steps sent to you via text, please note you will need a wifi connection to set this up this way.

Alternatively please see this link for more information and manual setup. http://community.giffgaff.com/t5/learn-giffgaff-top-tips/newbie-quick-internet-guide/m-p/2066679 and scrol down to iPhone settings.

If you need any other help with iPhone please contact me I'll be happy to help.

Hi, if this has happen more often then it's normally down to little updates like iOS 7.0.1 through to iOS 7.0.4 maybe , all you need to do is check on the apn page and change back idata.02.co.uk to giffgaff.com on all the top lines

You need these settings

APN: giffgaff.com
