Tesco Xtras App
Not so much of a complaint but intrigued to know if anybody else has had this issue. Both my wife & myself have pay monthly contracts with Tesco's & have had for several years.

3 Mobile PAYG- Charges for engaged lines?
I have a 3 mobile payg phone. Today I was surprised to find my credit had run out when I phoned my doctor's surgery several times when the line was engaged.

I'm thinking of moving away from my Sim Only deal with Virgin Mobile as I'd like more data, and have seen there there are better deals on the market. One that caught my eye is with ID (Carphone Warehouse's own brand - using the 3 network). Does anyone have any experience, good or bad, with ID please?
