Yep - just go to your "spread giffgaff" page and you activate your affiliate link there :)

yeah I know I must have done it, can't remember doing so.

what i also can't work out is how to insert the banners they have there into forum signatures, all I get is mess when i do it when really I want it pointing to this link

http://giffgaff.com/orders/affiliate/mrdavid

anyway. back on topic, I've been on giffgaff for a month now and the service is very good and of course a hell of a lot cheaper than almost all other mobile companies

If I get a free sim with £5 on and buy £5 top up, will I still get the Free unlimited Internet until end of Feb?

does it have to be topped up monthly to get the internet?

you have to top up £10 mate, thats the minimum for referral bonus. the free internet is until feb 28. it may possibly be extended after that point. it has been extended a few times now, partially because they havent perfected the billing system for it, best deal at the moment is the 'hokey kokey' goodbag

you can get the £5 bonus with this link http://giffgaff.com/orders/affiliate/mrdavid

Taking it back off-topic again... :)

It should be a simple matter of going to "spread giffgaff", then "giffgaff banners", choose the banner you want and it will take you to a screen with the HTML needed for the banner. You copy the whole of the code, go to the community, into "my community settings", then "personal information" and paste it into the signature box. Try it without putting anything else in (no other text) first to check it works - a few times it's tried to reformat it when I've added extra stuff and messed with the code that was already there.

you cant use html code here, you have to use BB code.

wierdly though html works in the sig?

Used that but my MMS never worked so had to enter settings manually :)

Was a bit put off using the giffgaffapn after reading this but thought I'd give it a go. It worked fine.

So it's worth giving it a go. if you have problems then can always do it manually then.

Yep worth trying, depends what settings you use in the GiffGaff APN I guess :)

I don't understand why some settings have the proxy, and others do not. I've never used it and its always been fine!

If you are having problems with your GG sim connecting to the APN , then check with GG to ensure you do not have a databar on your account.

Some GG sims are sent out with Databar's on them - normally takes 24hours to remove, you need to raise a question through your account to get it taken off.

re data bar on SIM..

Bit daunting for new members there mind Bro,

Yes Agents responces can take 24 hours,

but the quickest way to sort the data bar is,

go on the giffgaff forum and PM a staff member, they will remove the data bar within a few minutes.

thats mad why would they send them out with a databar?

The reason for the data bar,

it was implemented when people were getting

SIM's and getting free internet on an unactivated SIM.

Like I said above, the bars easily lifted in a few minutes.

you're meant to at least pretend to be posting in this thread for a reason!

lol not even a comment :)

It's this sort of touting that could get giffgaff a bad name.

Could a mod remove these posts?

I see, I had no such problem I thought they were totally functional once the first top up went in.
