I'm sorry but your wrong. You cannot auto top up a goodybag. You can queue one ready for when the current one expires but nothing else. There isnt even an option to select a goodybag in the auto top up settings. Theres just a box where you specify the amount you want to auto top up by and another box to specify a limit per month you want the auto top up to come into use. You can only auto top up by amounts of £10,£20,£30. NOT goodybags.


Taken from giffgaffs site:

Auto top-up: Auto top-up means when your account drops below £3 it'll automatically top up by the amount you've selected (via credit card), up to a maximum per month that you've specified. Handy.

Head to Top-up > Auto top-up settings.

If you've already stored your credit card details - just tick the box and select the amount you'd like to be topped up by each your balance drops below £3. Auto top-up is not currently available on MasterCard debit (Maestro or Switch) or Solo cards (sorry! Not our fault -we'd like to do it but the banks don't agree!

For more information see giffgaff answer How do I set up an auto-payment if my balance gets low? Click here

Selecting Click Here gives the following:

If you don't want to be troubled by topping up you can set up auto payment to ensure you're not left running on empty. Head to 'Top-up' then 'Top-up settings' to update your 'Auto Top-up' settings. You can set amount you would like to be automatically topped up with when your balance drops below £3. Every time you're auto topped up you'll receive a confirmation email, so you can keep track of your finances.

For auto top-ups you can set an amount (between £10 - £30) you’d like to be auto topped up by when your balance falls below £3 and also a monthly transaction limit (between 1-5). Once you reach your maximum, you won’t be auto topped up again in that month (helps manage those pennies!)

(e.g top up amount £5, maximum of 3 top-ups in one month – if you’ve already reached an auto top-up of £15 and you drop below £3, you won’t be auto topped up)

If you’ve exceeded the maximum number of auto top-ups an auto top-up won’t be triggered and you’ll have to top-up your account online. Auto top-up is triggered by your account falling under £3. On the first of the month, if your account is already sitting under £3 an auto top-up won’t be triggered.

Sorry that's correct you need to queue one up but according to the giffgiff forumsthe goodbag auto top up is in the works and will be implemented later this year or early next year.

That will be a good addition if they get it working without any problems. Must have missed that on the forums.

Visa debit can be used. To pay for top ups,goodybags and auto top ups. Mines a visa debit and works fine.
