i'm just on the sign up page now. they offer 200 points to somebody who reffered me. if anybody wants the 200 points just put your giffgaff username up. i'l hang on a bit.
my giffgaff username will be crispy33 if somebody gets to the sign up and doesnt want to waste the 200 points.
not sure what the points give you yet,better than going to waste though.

happy giffgaffing on your n900 wonderphones chaps!

Sounds good to me too, the points are about payback or something, the more questions you answer (and the OP gives you credit for the answer) the more pionts you get, then twice a year they convert those points into cash and give you credit... as far as I read thats how it works anyways :)

@Crispy

I put you as my referrer. You were the first username. Might as well not let the points go to waste.

i have switched to GiffGaff from Vodafone. After two days of use, i am experiencing dreadful battery drain.

I used to get to the end of the day with a bar or two battery left. I disconnected my phone from the charger at 6am and i now need to put my phone back on charge having hardly used it.

I have very poor/no 3G signal. Could this be the issue? Should i set the phone to GSM only?

If this continues i may have to switch to anohter network with better coverage.

The lack of 3g is likely to be the problem.

If it's constantly looking for a 3G signal it will use alot of battery.
My 3G orange signal isn't too good around where I work and I have to keep it in GSM or it'd use most of the battery trying to connect to a non existant (or very weak)3G signal.
It seems looking for the signal, or connecting uses more battery than staying connected.

Off topic: I got a text from orange yesterday to say I was now receiving signal from both orange and T-mobile...maybe I'll get better signal now?!
