Is Giffgaff sim cards in partnership with O2?

I have a iPhone and it's only open to O2 will the Giffgaff card be okay for my phone
Please share any info

Most partner "virtual" networks (Ikea, tesco, Asda etc) use their own network code
and will be locked out of a Vodafone/O2/T-mo/Orange etc locked phone
even if they are on the same network.

That said, O2 and GiffGaff do seem to be interchangeable - all reports seem to say so
O2 will work in GiffGaff locked phone
GiffGaff will work in O2 locked phone

only you putting one in your phone will show it
(also know that if you got your phone at Carphone warehouse or Phones4U not an O2 shop, it may well not be locked anyway - even if it had O2 branding)

They are not in partnership as such, but your O2 locked iPhone will work fine with a Giffgaff sim, as Giffgaff use O2's transmitters to run their network. I have been with Giffgaff since they started. Have a look at the link below, where you can ask any questions about the network.

If you wish to join Giffgaff, you can get a simcard at the link below. If you order from the link, I will receive 500 points towards my payback, and you will receive £5 extra credit when you first top up with £10 or more.

  • Why isn't my GiffGaff PAYG Internet working in my IPhone 3GS? Basically I got an Iphone 3GS and the i put my giffgaff sim in it. I topped it up £15 and got the 400 mins and Unlimited texts and Internet package as i always do. Now when i leave my house (disconnecting the Wi-Fi) my texts and Phone calls are working but my internet isn't connecting. Is there a way to fix this?
  • Is GiffGaff a good mobile provider? So is GiffGaff a good provider. I'm getting an Iphone 5 soon and I know they lock with the first sim you enter in them. Will I regret my decision? I currently use O2 and I like it except the stingy internet allowance that's why I'm moving to GiffGaff where the internet allowance is more fair…
  • IPhone 4s Wi-Fi with giffgaff sim & no internet connection? I'm planning to get iPhone 4s on pay as you go with the GiffGaff sim, pay as you go. what if I did not pay this month therefore no text/calls/internet for iPhone 4s. Will I still be able to use Wi-Fi? Does it have a limit or whatsoever? Or I can't use it at all as giffgaff does not provide this (does it have to?)?
  • I have a iPhone 5s on 02 giffgaff and my contract is with three how do I unlock my iPhone? They said I needed to connect it to a laptop through iTunes and do it that way with a 02 SIM card in the mobile while I do this but I don't understand it fully any suggestions?
