I added this SIMO plan a few weeks ago to my tariff for my boy, and am now paying only £12.80 for this and my 60GB plan, so maybe worth a look if you need a second sim.

You need to access this via the offers page in the MyO2 app, Click on offers, then sim plans, and you will see the below MYO2 APP LINK

Don’t get this yet, wait until after march then change to avoid 17% rise
1st Mar
This warning should just be auto added to every phone deal right now
2nd Mar
From O2s Twitter support when I asked for clarification regarding when the price increase will be applied @MrSwitch :

"Hi Dev. Anyone joining or upgrading between 15/02/2023 and 22/03/2023 will have the RPI+3.9% adjustment applied to their April 2023 bill onwards. Any connections from 23/03/2023 will not have RPI+3.9% applied from April as it will already be applied to the tariff signed up to."
2nd Mar
Very useful, been waiting to find out what the exact date would be. 23rd March deals here we come!
1st Mar
Good old o2 rip off
Just got a message from them my plan Tariff is going up 17% from next month
Surely that most be illegal
1st Mar
It is legal, and probably what most carriers will be doing. I’ll be waiting until April, then changing my current deal through switch, hopefully for around my previous price, and with another 3 months free Disney+
This was the message I got, which is in line with what I was told when I took out my current deal…
1st Mar
I find o2 are horrendous for de-prioritisation (ie full mobile signal but no data at peak times), how do other networks compare? Does it depend on your tariff too? Never been able to find details on this
3rd Mar
O2 have the slowest/non existent data speeds of any network. Their masts are way over capacity and they can't cope so they throttle data to stop their joke network from crumbling. I couldn't even get 1mbs data speed in O2 - on ID mobile which used the 3 network I offer get around 60mbps (edited)
1st Mar
i remember a long thread last year and confusion over when to start a new plan that then Wouldn't increase. is it now clear that its only after 1st April? taking a plan in march would incure the increase?
1st Mar
The cut-off is near the end of March. Connecting/re-contracting on April 1 will avoid the increase. (edited)
1st Mar
6GB for £6 occassionally pops its head on USwitch/MSM but for now 5GB for £6 seems to be the best available deal. Heat added.
1st Mar
I'm already with o2, and out of contract and it's going up again in April.

How can I take this offer and keep my number please? Also will this go up from £6 in a month's time in April?

Thanks in advance
1st Mar
When they say £6 a month means without VAT. With VAT I been paying £6.70 (crap), in April’s will put more price up and it will be £7.50 at least. I’ve just came off from O2 as I had 4 sim only deals with them. With in 1 year they out twice price up…now I’m with Lebara 12gb data u limited text and calls £2.99 for 6 months and then £6.90 and it’s monthly rolling ( no contracts) from MSE (money saving expert)
1st Mar
I got email that they are increasing prices by 13.74% so this deal is a honey trap.
1st Mar
Depends whether you think you can find a better deal in April after the price rises. Otherwise this is a pretty good deal.
1st Mar
Im guessing that the data will get doubled if you have Virgin Broadband !

Doesn't seem to work on the second Sim
1st Mar
I would never go back to o2
1st Mar
Cool.
1st Mar
Just changed mine from £8 a month to £8 a month with more data, so I now have 60gig Data including volt instead of 40, last month I used 500MB of data 3.45 mins of calls and 3 texts. Overkill or what. I mostly use WhatsApp and wifi
1st Mar
You need to change to the same deal again end of march or 17% rise
1st Mar
Will this go up in April?
1st Mar
Possibly, I'll be refreshing my tariffs in April once I can see what the actual new tariff prices are. Uswitch will hopefully have some decent offers
1st Mar
My o2 contact ends on 10th March . Should I wait until April to take up the offer?
1st Mar
I doubt the offer will still be active in April because that's when the prices go up. They're trying to lure you in with this deal now knowing that it'll increase by 17.3% in April. So it'll be £7.04 after the price rise! And that's before VAT apparently. (edited)
2nd Mar
You can get 30GB for £8 from same network...
2nd Mar
This is available to new customers

I'm on this deal now and pay £6pm they emailed saying I pay £12 and they are putting my bill up to over £14 in April that is a bit more than 17.3% fortunately it is also the end of my contract so I'll not be arguing with them.

Oh and I get no data at all when in a large crowd so I'll not miss them.
1st Mar
That’s rubbish the £12 is an example if you read it properly .
1st Mar
Can this be used as an Esim ?
1st Mar
Yes.
1st Mar
Can you use this to upgrade an existing contract, similar to uswitch offers?
1st Mar
Yes.
1st Mar
Not in my offers on app or website (edited)

Have added "select accounts" to title, cheers
1st Mar
This not just the same as their family plan offer? I have mine as main, then my wife, mum and dad on my account, so they get 20% off their sim only tariffs.

1st Mar
Can these be added when bought through 3rd party like uswitch ?
1st Mar
Apart from EE, who would be the next best provider? O2 is so slow
1st Mar
Depends on your area tbh, i would try vodafone, three can be blazing fast but coverage is very poor, o2 probably a bit better coverage wise and more consistent speed, but still depends.
1st Mar
I just upgraded my Galaxy Watch LTE e-sim plan from the standard £5 for 1GB to this.

Even though O2 don't offer calls and texts on the watch tariff I'm interested to see if I can text and call from the watch number independently.

Thanks @MrSwitch
1st Mar
Mine shows a tariff of 30gb for £8?
2nd Mar
Isn’t that going up in a month?
1st Mar
£2 more per month gives you 30GB data
1st Mar
£15 for me
1st Mar
Thanks

Thanks (edited)
2nd Mar
So if I've got a existing SIM plan I can change to this £6 one through the app? I thought this was like adding a new contract
2nd Mar
What's the MultiSave discount and how do I get it?
3rd Mar
Only works if you are adding a second (or more) line : o2.co.uk/mul…ave
2nd Mar
I’ve a terrible deal I got with my Virgin package, 5gb for £10 (doubled to 10Gb as a Volt customer) so this could be a great option if it works.
I see an option for 20gb for £8, if however if I check the terms it says “This plan is only compatible for existing customers adding an additional connection to their plan. This plan is not compatible for upgrading customers”
but if I go to the checkout it does give me an option to upgrade my existing number. But this seems to good to be true, I’ll get more data for less money 10Gb for £12 becomes 20gb for £8 ? or what I think will happen is the d8 will be an additional charge. Does anyone know?
in April they are saying it’ll go up to £14 , O2 say I can’t leave but my Virgin letter which is also increasing in price says I can leave Virgin & O2. Am thinking of leaving the lot & going for rolling contracts only .
Apreciate any advice
3rd Mar
This is quite a poor deal when I’ve got 60GB with Volt for £8pm soon to be £9.60pm
3rd Mar
Some people don't need loads of data so no point paying extra for it

No longer on the app despite being there a few days ago...
