O2 pulling a fast one?🤔
As many on this forum recently, I'm going to be affected by the O2 price hike in April. I contacted them to discuss but the outcome was "contact us in Mid April to discuss as we can't do anything now due to a discount already applied to your account". My thinking is they have tried to stall me leaving & miss the…

Signal booster
The signal to inside my house is abysmal since 3G was switched off. The house is at the base of a 60m high ridge and the nearest mast is on top of the ridge, about a mile away. I have to walk into the garden about 20metres to get a decent signal, so the ridge does not impede the signal. Signal boosters are advisable to…

Refusing to cancel my contract within 14 days as they are saying is a business contract
I have had the displeasure of dealing with a company called CLEAR VISION COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED in Birmingham. They said they were 02 and my contract was up for renewal. The contract was up for renewal and they had all my details so I assumed it was genuinely 02. It wasn't this is a separate company who 02 sell your…

Airtime UP– what’s in it for them?
02 are pushing a bit to upgrade from Airtime to Airtime up. Which apparently used to be called inspire or something. Free, and they’re selling the benefits of it, but it requires linking up bank accounts via open banking. I have read the extra information, but it’s clear as mud as to what that means in practice with…

Query on process going to a new Lebara MSE deal after the Lebara MSE deal you're on ends?
The MSE Lebara deals are usually superb from what I've seen on the site and threads here. The 'deals' seem to be a little higher than they were several months ago in some cases though. I had a query regarding if you signed up for one and the offer period is about to end and would appreciate if people can clarify! 1. If you…

Spusu and EU roaming
I've recently activated my Spusu SIM and most things work as expected. One thing that's not clear is what they mean when they talk about EU roaming. I've now talked twice to their CS and they don't seem to know more about that I do. They gave conflicting information and they gave me prices that I can't find in their price…

MSE News: Ditched O2 after it hiked its price hike? Check you've not been wrongly charged
O2 has told some customers leaving the firm that they'll be charged £100s to cancel their contracts, while others have been asked to repay handset costs in full upfront. But this is WRONG. If you're affected by O2's price hike on a price hike, you were entitled to cancel your airtime contract penalty-free within 30 days of…

EE network - Best Piggyback MVNO Network
HI. I'm currently coming to the end of my BT Mobile SIM only contract and they seem to be phasing out BT mobile and only offering EE SIM only.

What's the best way to keep hold of the number but not have to…

O2 Device plan issue
Hi, I am looking for advice please. Due to the price rises with O2 I contacted them and asked to leave my Airtime contracts. I was clear I did not wish to cancel my device plans.

Lebara deals through MSE.
Hi all. I'm withO2 and been offered an inferior 'deal' to a newbie so am looking to leave and at least give another network a go. Only downside is losing Priority but I can live with that as I don't get that much from it. Example this week won 'a movie of my choice on Rakuten' Turns out it is a £4 voucher for a 'movie of…

Tesco price hike
So there we are. Tesco Mobile don`t think they are making enough money out of us Pay As You Go types so they`ve decided to try and push us into a contract based tariff. The latest example of corporate greed despite the millions they are making from the hordes of teenagers (and older folks) who can`t take their eyes away…

SPUSU - WARNING!
I ported my number across to Spusu from Lebara as Lebara uses the Vodafone network and the 5g coverage is almost non existent. Seeing as Spusu run on EE, which I've never had a problem with in all the years I've used MVNOs, I thought it was a good move. How wrong I could be! Porting was smooth, no issues. The problem began…
