Orange customer diservice
If you are thinking of getting a phone from Orange be warned their customer service is dire. I've rung three times in the last couple of days chasing £35 pounds they've taken off my PAYG phone. They won't refund because they can't see where it went (their system apparently take a day or two to update the info on calls?!).…

Any £10 monthly SIM only packages?
I'd like to sign up to a £10 per month mobile package, since I spend around £15 phoning mobiles from my landline each month. O2 seemed to have a decent package including 300 minutes, free O2 to O2 calls and unlimited texts at £10 per month. A couple of days after finding the details I phoned them to signup, only to be told…

Vodaphone Gold Customer
I have been called by someone saying they are from Vodafone saying that I am now a gold customer and they then went on to try and sell me more PAYG sim cards etc. Is this a scam as there is nothing on Vodafones web site about Gold Customers and it was an Irish number who rang. I have been with Vodafone for a number of…

O2 problems - looking for money
Last November my daughter received a letter from O2 saying she owed them £629 for a contract phone that was taken out in Jan 2008. Apparently it was cancelled in March 2008, but the first she heard anything was when O2 tried to take money out of her bank account via DD in June 2009, she cancelled the DD and admittedly did…

Cheapest SIM only for an HTC Desire?
I might be able to get hold of an unlocked HTC Desire in the coming weeks, but it is only worth getting if I get a value for money SIM only deal. Generally I don't use a lot of minutes, moderate texts but have known to be fairly heavy on net useage (within fair useage policies normally). Most cheap SIMS I've seen offer…

What's the cheapest SIM-only contract in the UK? In the Netherlands, I used to pay €2.50 for 100 minutes/10 sms and that did me just fine (simple.nl) but I don't even seem to be able to find anything as low as £5 here. Am I just looking in the wrong places?

Activating an iPhone PAYG SIM, and what happens after 12 months?
A thousand apologies for asking what I am sure are a couple of very basic PAYG questions, but I have never had a PAYG phone before, let alone a PAYG iPhone...So, here goes. I bought an iPhone 3G PAYG SIM (off Ebay), which is unused, and not activated, and I believe that once I activate it, and top it up with (at least)…
