Mobile Contracts Deals & Offers

Giffgaff is getting priceyyy

They also throttle speeds as it's a virtual network. I tested with O2 sim and Giff Gaff sim, same phone, and speeds dropped on giffgaff. Be wary people.

£25 and it’s not even true unlimited

Better deals elsewhere,saying that I'm a giffgaff customer lol

Cold, you can get a better deal from 3 or even vodafone at this price

What's the difference between those two? Which is easier? Thanks

Am I right in saying you save the 20% portion of your bill that is vat if you pay off the contract in advance?

If you have the money pay your contract off earlier saves you a bit of money overall and get this deal now

In the legal bit...'Secure Net - Red Extra and Entertainment plans come with a free three-month Vodafone Secure Net trial, to help protect your device from online treats.....' I wonder what an online treat is?

To cut a very long story short, it's likely down to how I handled my finances when I was younger and stupider :) I've got a number of defaults on my credit file that are still years away from dropping off so that'll likely be the reason more than anything.

You can also get £40 cashback through Quico

good deal, but dont expect 5g until 2022..........been waiting for nearly a year now (my office is in central london) and still nothing. Jumped to 02 2 weeks ago, and even got 5g at home....

Still £10 a month here https://www.fonehouse.co.uk/best-sim-only-deals?awc=6224_1588454274_8204e0feaba8c4e0d6b228762391f4bb&utm_source=digidip+UK+and+USA+-+Incentivized&utm_medium=AWIN&utm_campaign=http://www.digidip.net/&awc=6224_1590423513_40d43cd521f8ee440b667342b56b2778 on a 12M contract after a bit of a Faf £96 cash back

Data speeds are awful, whenever I away from home it seems to struggle. This was the message the other day. Never used to be like that.. I tried using the speed test before that message but it could not even link to the server🤷 to do the test

I'm leaving 3 now after one year away from EE (going back to EE). I was paying £22 for unlimited everything. It sounds brilliant, its just the signal isn't that good and unlimited data is only great if you can use it. If it works in your area then this is a good deal, it just seems that EE has better coverage and higher speeds. 2 years is a long time for a SIM contract too, you'd have to be confident of the service in your area. Thanks for posting anyway.

Been with three for years. Have cancelled yesterday as 90 of my calls drop now in my town. Ridiculous

Here’s an old screenshot of a speedtest my friend did almost two years ago on EE. He regularly sent me screenshots of download speeds noticeably faster than that from all over London and surrounding cities. Other than Virgin Media customers, most people didn’t have home broadband with 200Mbps+ download speeds and definitely not 55Mbps upload back in 2018.

Go Faster £2 https://ee.co.uk/help/help-new/billing-usage-and-top-up/call-text-and-data-charges/how-do-i-get-the-4g-go-faster-add-on BT squeezing every last penny out

Depends how saturated a area is, EE will cap you when it needs to. EE is the worst performer region wide here, the speeds are that horrific that o2 beats them, then Three & top dog Voda.

My EE is essentials - capped to 60Mbps. (y)

Yes, they now charge extra for their fastest speeds called 4GEE. £2pm extra a friend of mine now pays whereas a few years ago he didn’t pay any extra and also the speeds were significantly faster (200Mbps+). (skeptical)

Yeah I guess every supplier will have some customers who have bad experiences, sorry you were one of them. But I believe smarty/3 boast 99.8% 4G coverage throughout the country

I was with 3 before moving over to o2 and they were absolutely awful!! Never again but that’s just my experience with them

Yeah easily. Smarty for example shares the same coverage as 3. The larger known mobile network providers are now the worst ones to go to for deals

But can others supply you with the coverage of o2? I’ve been with o2 a few years now and never once had a problem with network coverage

Smarty offer 30GB a month with unlimited texts and calls for £10 a month and it's a 1 month contract so can cancel any time. There are also plenty other suppliers and better deals out there

How does O2 work out their data/airtime prices ? £24 for 15gigs a month is not particularly good, yet they have triple data offers on resellers, good sim only deals but rubbish when buying a flagship on a 3 year contract ??

Cheers for the reply. Ended up getting it on contract with a view to paying it off in August when I'm back in work. Gives me a bit more flexibility that way. PayPal's interest free period is relatively short so I don't want to be under pressure to pay it back before the interest starts accruing.

There is it's leaked a bunch of times :)

Your best bet would probs be using PayPal credit to buy it, interest free for a while I think?

Very tempted by this but coming from lg g6, I think this is just a little too tall. Im hoping there's an xperia 5 ii coming!

Oh I see. Oh well still a good deal I guess. Hope my S9 will be good for another couple of years. Ty for the info.

Yes, unfortunately. You have to visit the merchant (Virgin Mobile in this case) via the link on either the Quidco or Topcashback site or app. If you don’t then you won’t earn any cashback as there is no record of you visiting via either of the cashback sites.

I just signed up for this deal. Is it too late to get the cashback? Won't have the SIM and switch provider for a few days. Never used a cashback service before...

Topcashback are now offering an exclusive £15 cashback on the 25GB Data, Unlimited Mins/Text SIM.

Email sent

This deal will go extremely cold!

What sort of deal is this? jeez

Are those prices plus vat?

Could I use Student Discount on top?

Mobiles.co.uk have a £20 per month with £120 cashback by redemption making it £15 per month

You have to join and go through them to the seller to get cashback.

Got to be kidding me! Ohh well I’m on a better deal now anyway

Too late!!

Just had a text from voxi saying endless data coming to an end, was on 8gb chat customer service updated data extras to 2+2 so 12 gb, all is good

But does that mean you have unlimited data or it's just not telling you how close you are to your monthly limit?

No I'm not with VOXI but they replied to a load of people asking on Twitter saying it'll last for 24 months and I believe it says it somewhere in the advertisement / terms and conditions

Yes they did that to me, but went on live chat they confirmed that plan would show as 8gb but everytime it renews each month would be 8gb plan plus the 4gb extra for 24months , or until you cancel or change plan, so in short 12gb for next 24 months .

Hmm I got an email saying they’d added the freebie of extra gb for 30 days. Did you also get that?

hahah they have simplified things now. They give clear instructions and all I do is send past 3 months bills... let them deal with it :) and I get the cheques to deposit. Not sure when they will digitise the refunds, that will save a lot of time.. going to back I go once a year :)

going via quidco the 36gb for £13 is still available. **EDIT: At checkout it states "6gb data", so looks like the 6x multiplier isn't being recorded....or valid now.

Cool

I'm fine with this current deal. I saw the 36gb deal, but didnt feel I needed 36gb, even for just £1 more.

You should have done it yesterday you would have got 36gb for £13

It should be free. Or you can just use a different network. I recently transferred my three number to Vodafone sim then transferred it back to three. Free of cost.

I'm already on Three and want to transfer to a new three SIM - It seems I need to transfer to PAYG first to retain my number, but all PAYG SIM's now require topups or monthly fees? Anyone know which are still free to do this? Thanks

I was getting less than 1Mbps inside the house in Harrow over the past 6 months, been with them for years but PAC'ed out in the end as work calls were also being dropped regularly. Use the Ofcom signal checker with your postcode before you buy, it gives signal quality both indoors and outdoors. However, even if you have problems inside the house, you may do well with an external antenna connected to a 4G router like the Huawei B525 - a nice, cheaper and more flexible alternative to fibre broadband. Depending on your location, some are getting really good speeds on Three. I've heated as it definitely is a good deal for unlimited data, if you get decent speeds.

interesting...will give that a try then (highfive)

ok thx (y)

Does anyone know if I stop my renewal on the deal for a couple of months when I am out of the country, does the deal still appear in my plan options?

Let us know what it's like I won't be getting one till July if Voxi actually does start counting .

thanks (popcorn) it runs on vodafone i will pay the money (strong)

Goes up to a tenner after 1st month don't forget.

thanks for this i just got this deal i will update you once sim has come (highfive)

We’re trying to help people by warning them of the pitfalls of this network. Everyone can give it a try and see what they think, which is what I did but if I knew then what I know now....good deal or not I wouldn’t have wasted my time

I initially had issues with them but network is all good now. Note: When contacting support/chat it said someone will respond within 24hrs but in my experience it took an hour and a half.

This is not a deal. It is the standard price and has been widely advertised for a long time.

If you mean VoLTE - sure do. Obviously depends if the mast you're connected to supports it though.

EU is included in your data amount. "Everything works like home. Data comes out of your monthly allowance or data add-ons. Calls and Texts are unlimited. No hidden charges. No extra costs."

Not heard of either shall explore. Don't like the long tie in/contract

Yes .. i will be be cancelling before Black Friday and get new a contract with cashback and freebies . Being halo customer makes this deal even better which i am

Tends to be for new customers rather than existing. Good deal though.

It’s a shame that no gift with this contract which is usually a speaker , Mastercard or so and also they made contracts 18 months . I signed up on Black Friday for £10(glitch) 40gb with jbl speaker and £60 quidco 12 months contract . 3 weeks later got option to increase to 50gb plan no extra charge.

Anyone around the East Midlands who can comment on coverage? I'm on 3, the past 12moths I've struggled hence looking to change but wanted to see how others faired with BT coverage.

This suits me fine. Upgraded easily without having to get a new sim. Thanks!

This'll do me nicely. I already ordered the same deal from EE but o2 has better network coverage in my area.

That's for 18 months though. I went with Vodafone 12 months 60gb 5G deal with mobiles.co.uk. £11.67 after the £100 automatic redemption. Got confirmation of acceptance straight away. No trouble. Thanks anyway.

Try the link further down

with O2 for 15 years continously. Didn't want to call for this deal and wait in the queue so went with this link and got declined due to credit check. Unnecessary mark in my credit history. Ruined my day.

i am interested in ;this deal, however i am a bit wary as when i choose £0 spend cap i get following message By selecting £0 monthly cap some services will be unavailable, including: Sending picture (MMS) messages, calling 070, 084, 087, 09 numbers, making calls and sending texts outside of the EU, text/call donations to charities. will this mean that i may not receive messages etc from my bank which may be classed as premium rate no.s can anyone clarify this please, beore i take plunge especially as it would affect credit rating thanks

ordered 4pm yesterday - delivered 11am today. Number porting across from Three on Monday. Will never go back to three.

Vodafone plans which has limited data, are full speed.

That one is better, but you have to claim cash back. This one on three other hand is automatic cash back, so you don't need to do anything. If you are methodical, and can periodically claim as per claim schedule, you get it for cheaper. (y)

Is this not better https://www.mobiles.co.uk/vodafone-sim-only-deals £8.50 a month after cashback
