    So on Giff-Gaff, I got a data warning as I'm using more than I do normally at the moment. At 80% usage warning I log on and add an irritatingly-named 'Goodybag' (fuck off) for more than I usually would, but in the meantime whatever 'credit' I had otherwise (I'm still unsure what the difference between 'credit' and a 'goodybag' is) ran out, so my 'goodybag' then wouldn't work. Why not? I just paid you money?

    No web access, aside from giffgaff's top-up page... but the fucking morons have so many third party analytics and social links added in, that I can't fucking top-up because every time I try to do so it just tries to reload the third party scripts it's blacklisted from access. Assholery!

    I've now spent £35 topping up a service I'd already spent £70 on last month because for some reason their system topped up my 'credit' (*5p per Mb, which eats up a surprising amount quickly) rather than my 'goodybag'.

    Honestly, who the fuck calls a data top up pack a 'goodybag'?

    • Holy shit, mobile service in the UK looks expensive.Continuity
    • It's actually not, which is why I'm really pissed off. I did get a partial refund for last month's £70. I just feel I'm getting ripped off by these cunts.detritus
    • I can get a completely unlimited calls and data plan for £35. I probably only need 10Gb though, at around £15detritus
