Expired credit on 3 PAYG!!
I was needing some advice. My 'emergency phone' on 3 was on PAYG. I used it rarely and I kept it topped up with credit on in the event of an emergency. Since then I haven't used it and when I tried to use it, it wouldn't work and turns out it was 'disconnected' by 3 due to inactivity. I had been told previously that credit…

3 months into 12 month contract Virgin hit me with a 50% increase
I took up an offer with Virgin Mobile in February for 1000mins + 1GB and unlimited texts. Yes it was an incredible offer...but today I got an email to tell me that the price is going up to £6 in July. Are they legally allowed to do this?! A 50% increase is excessive in my opinion.

Bit of advice needed!
I have been offered a phone from my daughter. She got a new one. The old phone is a Samsung S6 edge. It needs a new battery. I have looked on line and can get a genuine Samsung one for £6. Would I be able to install it myself or would I need to get it installed at a phone repair shop? I am not sure if it is unlocked. My…

Any networks that rolls over a top-up?
I have a phone for my son which he uses only to text me or my wife to let us know that he's back home from school and for emergencies. Therefore, when a month goes by, only about £3 could be used. Are there companies that allow any top-ups to be rolled over or do I have to keep topping up each month? I can see there are…

Do I have to use a 12 month SIM only card straight away?
This might be a really stupid question...but basically my SIM Only contract with Vodafone is ending in about 6 weeks time. However I want to take advantage of a special offer on a Sim Only deal while it's available.

Opinions/Experiences w. 3's Feel At Home?
Hiya folks, Going out to NY for the entirety of next month and saw 3 is doing incredibly cheap £10 monthly SIM contracts with 1gig of data and free international roaming.

Vodafone bill error and debt collection agency
Vodafone made a mistake on my final bill. They charged me for the whole month, but I was only with them for about 7 days. I didn’t want to pay the full amount, I asked for a new bill, and was told not to worry it will be sorted out. The new bill never materialised and I couldn’t log in as my account was closed. I heard…

Vodafone contract end
My contract ends on June 20, apparently I can upgrade to sim only on the 21st, so does that mean I can give my 30 days notice tomorrow for it to end on the 21st? I'm after the best deal for sim only, and £14.50 for 5gb seems rather steep when I can get that with virgin for £9.

SIM that will be used only for receiving calls, not making them
I suffer pretty badly from insomnia, so I have my phone set to silent when it charges, i.e. I go to bed and charge it and it automatically goes to silent. I thought it would be a good idea to get a second phone as a backup, give the number to my family and close friends if there's ever an emergency so they can get hold of…
