Spam calls since transferring 7 numbers
Wondering if anyone else has noticed this too, but i recently ported all my family from smarty to spusu. Since then, the amount of spam calls on all of the numbers is crazy. We get calls every day and are having to block them on all of the devices. Had sequential numbers call and random ones. But all are either ones that…

Why is it so expensive to keep your number with Sky Mobile?
I'm really frustrated that Sky Mobile don't seem to value their loyal customers and don't give them access to the same deals as new customers. I thought there was supposed to be a stop being put to all that. I've been looking at SIM plans, I'm out of contract and currently paying £14 10GB data, which is actually really…

RWG's New Website, Plans and new Charges
RWG's new site has been up for a few days now and several of us have been having a few issues with a variety of things, so I thought it a good idea to start a new thread rather than have spurious comments spread over two other RWG threads. Logging in was my first problem. Although it obviously recognised my email address…

Voxi mobile, pay monthly (non contract), will I get charged if sim not activated?
I have a nuance situation here. I noticed Voxi had the cheapest phone, but you have to pay £10 for a rolling 30 day contract. I also got £22.50 cashback initiated, but it says 8 weeks from top cashback, so that could track to zero. I have no intention of using the sim, and have not activated it. My questions is If the sim…

Is it Worth Trying to Sell an Accidentally Bought Samsung S26 Ultra

My account has already been flagged by Amazon for apparent excess returns, so I want to avoid returning the extra phone. Is it worth trying to recuperate the cost by selling it, or should I risk Amazon's…

Another spusu trouble spot: SMS codes
I've switched a couple accounts from RWG to spusu. This worked mostly well though spusu was unable to deliver the SIMs within a reasonable time frame: one took almost a week, the other never arrived and I had to call them and ask for a replacement. To their credit they sent another SIM 1st class which arrived two days…

Suggest me an iPhone
Starting point, I am not interested in any views as to what a ridiculous waste of money iPhones are and how I can get an android much cheaper. Those post will not be responded to. So I have an iPhone SE which I brought new in 2020. I’ve had the battery replaced once. It’s now starting to do the odd blip particularly with…

Transferring information from an iPhone 4 to iPad 14
I’m looking for some advice from anyone who has experience of transferring information from a very old iPhone. I have an iPhone 4, and I’m moving to an iPhone 14 Pro. My main concern is, if possible, making sure that I don’t lose any of the information that is still on the iPhone 4. While most of what is on my other phone…
