    any way to stop paying the April hikes? I was with virgin but they moved me to O2. My first bill was normal, but then they've added the April rise in the bill this month.

    Thanks.

    You can join a new contract at any time. Even if it’s an affiliate deal like the USwitch ones. That would start a new 12 months from today. Then renew again next year just after the increase to avoid it again.

    If you aren’t with o2 for the sake of Volt then the other option would be to leave them and join a network that doesn’t have annual increases. LycaMobile use the same o2 signal and also have free EU roaming. Their prices are very competitive especially if you go via MSE. may be worth considering?

    Couldn’t recommend the service if I’m honest. Most of the places that I go have such poor data service that Google Maps and browsers struggle to load anything, even with 4G signal. I don’t think O2 have maintained their standard of network over the years.

    Their network is oversubscribed and has some serious congestion leading to major capacity issues in most of the UK.

    Dropping down to 3G generally is the answer to get usable data since there's less people on that system compared to 4G.

    The issue is the Virgin Media merger. They've piled on so many new customers between introducing the Volt benefits, and also bringing everyone from Virgin Mobile over to o2 as well. All of these extra subscribers without investing in expanding their network infrastructure and boosting bandwidth capacity.

    What's the difference between an O2 contract and Virgin? Presume you still get volt?
    KodaBear's avatar
    KodaBear
    Virgin Mobile doesn’t come with volt until you get migrated over to the o2 brand - Something that’s happening imminently. Many customers are already being moved. New customers are no exception. It’s generally only a month or two from joining to being migrated unless you’re on a promotional offer where the first x months are discounted.

    i called virgin and they gave it for £9 for 30gb, i also had two other lines with virgin which they moved to 02 which with 02 family discount plan it mean the other two lines came to £7.20 each for 30gb (though im still waiting for 02 to apply that discount . heres hoping virgin didnt tell me somehting that 02 wont apply. still not bad deal to have 3 lines with 02 for £9 for 30gb

    Hope you have more luck than me getting that multisave discount. O2 seem to make the process for getting the discount as difficult as possible. With various texts required, which sometimes seem to work and sometimes don't. And then your 28 days have expired and you're not eligible for the discount any longer.

    So does this include rollover for data?

    It initially says it is a 1 month contract, however clicking through it is for 12 months.
    Obviously 1 month the reward card outweighs the monthly cost.
    I really want a one month rolling contract to check how O2 compares in my area.
    Anyone know the best solution to this?

    If you want to try out o2, sign up for the cheapest SIM from Lycamobile who use the same o2 signal? If you go via MSE they have SIMs for pennies that have preloaded data.

    Some of their plans can even be bought on eSIM so if your phone supports this you can be up and running in just a few minutes to try it out.

    Then if you are happy you can then commit to this 12 month contract with more confidence.

    Anyone with virgin who has now switched over? I had an email stating that my I was being moved to o2. My deal would go up to £14 from 11.99 but I'll get 100gb a month instead of 40gb a month. So I maybe look to get a new deal.

    My question is do I now have access to o2 priority? I've tried logging in with my virgin mobile and it doesn't work. Any tips?

    Interesting... the Virgin website clearly states:

    "no customers will see the cost of their plan rise as a result of this move"

    I think some clarity is needed here.
    The 30gb says 12 month contract and the 15gb says 1 month contract. However it looks like both will end up tieing you into a contract of 12 months.

    I signed up in February for the 30Gb £9, and in April it went up to nearly £11.

    O2 have done it to me twice. Lured me in last year with £15 then a few months later went up to £17, now gone up to over £19.

    Best to stay on rolling contracts and then just change when they inevitably push the price up.

    Do you get O2 Priority on a Virgin contact?

    Not on a Virgin Mobile contract, but you do if you have Virgin Broadband.

    Ok, just been on to Virgin mobile (India)
    I'm exhausted after having literally to spell EVERY single word to 2 different representatives and being put on hold countless times to be told that the account for the deal I've signed up to doesn't exist.
    Yet I have received 3 emails, 2 with agreement contracts and 1 with an approval button and a text with an contract consent link.

    After speaking to the assistant I clearly asked what sort of contract is being offered, is it 1 month rolling or is it 12 months or longer.
    I was assured several times it would only be a 1 month rolling contract.
    I asked why the credit check and all the ambiguous terms and conditions. They said that's just formality with any contract.

    Anyway they offered me 20GB for £8 not 15GB if you go direct through them.

    I said I didn't want to as I wanted the £20 Amazon voucher. Nothing they could do about that as it's not their deal.

    The upshot of it is that I declined and said I won't be continuing.

    If anyone else is I'd be a little wary as I'm still not sure of the contract length regardless of what they say, neither would I be hopeful of the £20 voucher actually being received.

    Would have been much easier over live chat, but it doesn't exist for virgin mobile, another red flag. (edited)

    Good work. Still unsure.
    However wouldn't we be able to cancel the contract within the first 14 days.
