PAYG provider change and handset change
I would be grateful for some advice as I'm a pensioner who is not very savvy when it comes to mobile phones and networks. When I retired 9 years ago I purchased a Nokia no frills mobile (non-smart phone) from an Orange shop on a PAYGO basis. I previously had a company paid mobile. I do not use the phone very much -…

However, I am positive that I did not go over on my bill, especially by that much. I did not pay this and sought help from my University…

How do I know what type of screen protector is on my iPhone?
Got a second hand iPhone 5 and I can see that there is a screen protector of some type on it. How can I tell if it's just a plastic flimsy thing or a glass one? It doesn't have even the tiniest air bubble in it, so I'm reluctant to peel even a corner off to find out as I know I wouldn't be able to get it back on without…

My new iPhone is faulty, they want to repair or replace it, but can I just refund?
Hey MSE'ers So I bought the iPhone 7 Plus a short while ago from the online Apple store, but it's after the initial 14-day returns period. At first I was pretty happy with the phone.

Recommendations for Bluetooth earphones for iPhone 7?
The iPhone 7 only has one socket, shared for both charging and earphones. This means you can't charge it and make phone calls at the same time, except for short calls where you might not need both hands free. One of the few ways around this is to use Bluetooth earphones. I bought two sets of Bluetooth earphones from eBay…

Three inTouch app - drawbacks
I'm considering moving from giffgaff to Three for three reasons: * I want to pay for only what I use, i.e. 1p/MB rather than having to buy more than I need and then waste what I don't use, e.g. 500MB, 1GB etc. There's wifi almost everywhere I go in London now so my mobile data usage can be very low in some months, but is…
