giffgaff Features
Flexible Plans
When you buy a mobile phone from giffgaff, your handset plan is separate from your airtime plan. This gives you a bit of flexibility to change the two things independently of each other. For instance, you’ll be able to adjust your airtime plan, without it affecting your handset plan.
If you choose one of giffgaff’s 18-month airtime plans, you’ll have the ability to move up or down to any other plan within giffgaff’s 18-month range (e.g. to get more or less data). When you do this, it won’t reset the term of your commitment3.
If you choose one of giffgaff’s 1-month rolling or Pay As You Go plans, you’ll be able to change to another plan, whenever you like.
4G & 5G Coverage From O2
giffgaff is powered by the O2 network – you’ll get both 4G coverage and 5G coverage included as standard.
Before you sign up as a new giffgaff member, it’s worth checking to make sure you can get coverage where you live. You can do this by entering your postcode on giffgaff’s online coverage map:
