As a UK resident, it was certainly a flash from the past to receive an email from Orange. They are, of course, still going strong elsewhere in Europe and, if you’re heading across Europe for the EURO 2016 tournament. The Orange Holiday plan is available here (this is …
If 4G isn’t a massive “want” then you might want to take a look at LIFE Mobile. They’re an MVNO using the EE network and offer SIM only deals. There’s a UK call centre, no credit checks and right now they’re offering some discounts on their plans. You …
You like a bit of data don’t you? Oh yes, you love it. You need it. But at the same time you worry. Sure, you love your hot juicy data, but you worry about the size of your package. Just when you’re watching a movie and getting to …
I have no need for this. Usually, some bloke who comes round to measure up our house would need it. It could be an architect, a builder, a designer or someone else who you’re paying an utterly hideous amount of money to. Either way, they’ll start drawing and …
giffgaff, the MVNO owned by O2, has decided to chuck in 4G data as “part” of their goodybags (aka monthly plans). No separate 3G plans and 4G plans. If you’ve been looking at the 3G-only £5, £7.50 or £10 goodybags then everything will be remaining pretty much the same, except …
A new MVNO is to come to the UK in July, but its a bit different. Called FreedomPop, it will offer free and paid-for SIM-only plans in a few weeks time. I’ve just used their website from the USA to check out what’s currently offer in America. For …
A new year means a new set of plans for Vodafone, who have today launched some new SIM-only deals. £9.50 will get you 250MB of data per month and 300 minutes plus 500 texts on 3G. However, you can also choose to pay £14 per month for 500MB …
Nasty price rises. Nobody wants that. Nasty unexpected price rises? They’re even worse. Recently we’ve seen the uproar caused when mobile operators crank up prices mid-way through contracts, and – like utility providers – fixed-price offers could help to reassure potential and existing customers alike. Vodafone have today …
Your mobile might be a fixed amount per month but, if you look at your bill, you might find yourself exceeding the limits and paying more. Sometimes it’s the other way and you might find yourself stuck on a plan which is costing too much and you might …
If you’ve got Virgin TV then, if I’m honest, you’d be daft not to look at the Virgin Media offering on the new Samsung Galaxy S5. You’ve seen the video and the pictures and now you want one, so Virgin Media are offering their Virgin Media customers a …
Ofcom, the UK telecoms regulator, has actually shown some teeth – you can now leave your provider if the price of your monthly package price is increased. An increase in plan costs is now considered to be “materially detrimental” and will mean that you can exit a contract …
Several weeks ago, we received a Tweet from Phil Mottershead (@philicibine) regarding the April T-Mobile price hike. He stated that customers were winning their cases and had the right to cancel their contracts with no penalty. We were intrigued, as we had no clue what he was talking …
Welcome back to our irregular look at the various MVNOs (virtual networks) here in the UK. You know what they say, you get nothing in this world for free. Well… perhaps from that nasty rash I had from that girl the once. Ooh.. But what about a free …
Data use is a subject that often gets people talking especially as data use is at it’s highest ever on mobile devices and shows no sign of slowing down anytime soon. O2 have recently revamped their contract plans and now have a plan available with a generous 4GB …
In a interesting move similar to the rental program from O2, Vodafone have released a new tariff that allows you to get a new phone every year. All at a premium price of course. Vodafone Red Hot gives customers unlimited calls and texts, 2GB of internet and WiFi …
It has been a while since we reviewed a mobile service however as I am a Three UK customer and jetting off to Madrid and Austria for 11 days, it seems like a good opportunity to review a service that I will be using daily and that is …
Something strange seems to have happened in our house recently. My wife has the HTC Desire S. She loves it, and she’s broken it more times than I can remember (insurance is a must). A few months ago she came to the end of her contract, but she’s …
Today Virgin Media are going head-to-head with the Three “One Plan” and T-Mobile “Full Monty” tariff. However, the Virgin “Premiere” plan dishes up unlimited data at a lower price point – just £21 per month for unlimited data and unlimited texts. The network, which piggy-backs Everything Everywhere, is …
A new tariff from O2 will dish out unlimited minutes and unlimited text with prices starting at £26 a month if you keep your current phone. There’s a decent data allowance too – 1GB. The plan prices go up if you’re bundling with a new phone and start …
If you’ve followed our continued coverage of the T-Mobile supposed “cap” you’ll hopefully know the story by now. Basically, several customers were told that there was a 1Mb/s cap, then we were told that there wasn’t, but people continued to see their Full Monty speeds top out at …
Breaking – Today (Saturday) at 1.30PM we received notification that T-Mobile provided the incorrect response to this tweet. More information is at the bottom of this story, however it seems that there isn’t a 1Mb/s cap. We will update you with more information as we get it… — …
T-Mobile have announced a brand new market leading range of price plans called ‘The Full Monty’ and gives customer access to use their smartphone much more than ever before. This is a real rival to The One Plan by Three which, before now, has been the leading plan …
