Insuring a "free" (contract) phone
Not sure whether this should be in the Insurance forum or here, but probably more likely to get a reply here! I have just got a new iPhone 5 on contract with 3, and was thinking maybe I should get it insured. However as I didn't actually pay for the phone separately, I couldn't prove how much it "cost" me if it was…

Smartphone Data Use
If I bought a smartphone and only used it for making calls and sending texts but, it has an android or windows OS, how much data would the phone itself consume on its own in a month? Approx. Let say I dont download and install any apps. Just plain-vanilla out of the box. Lets not get into the debate as to whether a smart…

Three (3UK) no international roaming allowed for 60 days on new SIM contracts!
Just took out a new 12 month one plan SIM only with 3. I can't use it abroad for 60 days! I then went to cancel and I can't because I put the SIM card in my phone and the normal sync on my smartphone meant I used the internet. No calls or texts, still doesn't matter. Absolutely awful customer service back and forth between…

Best first mobile for 11 year old son?

He is most likely to be googling and playing games at first with I imagine some…

PAYG deals
Hi Does anyone know where I can get a really straightforward breakdown of the various sim-only PAYG deals from? Everyone seems to charge around 25p/min, but the deals reduce this significantly. For example, Tesco credits your phone with £30 for a £10 credit, so the cost of the calls is actually around 8p per minute. Every…
