Mobile insurance
Looking for some suggestions for well priced but trustworthy insurance for my current phone. It was second hand but still a lot more than I would normally pay but it is quite recent. I don't normally insure my phones as they'd be quite old and cheap to replace but I really need to get cover for this one. Some sites I'm…
Cancelling a mobile - mid contract with Tesco
So I want to move to another provider, but Tesco have told me that if I want to move I'll have to pay £233 which is just ridiculous. I'm a poor student, so really not within my budget but I need to get out of the family contract. I've found another I like. Can I pay the upgrade fee of £80, which then starts a new contract…
No sim-only LTE in UK?
Hi all - I am moving from Canada to the UK in the next couple of months and was looking for mobile deals. I am my own fully paid fully unlocked S9 so only need a sim. First of all the sim-only deals seem amazing to me since we get ripped off so badly here in Canada so I'm excited about that! The only thing I was confused…
Can someone comfirm is O2 S10 the dual sim version?
Hi, Wondering if someone would be kind enough to confirm for me if the Samsung S10 sold by O2 on a monthly contract is the dual sim version? I rang to ask and got passed around different departments, no one seeming quite sure, last guy said no, but he seemed more interested in sharing a joke with his colleagues and was…
O2 - immediate start of contract before SIM arrived
I am in the process of moving 4 accounts from iD to O2. I wanted to obtain the SIM cards and activate the switch when I could do so without incurring extra costs. O2 have now started a tick box which says your account will start and without ticking you can’t get a new sim. Surely this is dodgy - paying for a service you…
Three doubling my tariff!
About 18 months ago I negotiated a great deal with Three - £7pm for 4GB, unlimited texts and calls. I’ve had a letter today saying they’re reviewing the range of tariffs they offer... and putting me up to £14 for 4GB, unlimited texts and calls. To double the price is horrendous, but they offer much better deals for new…

EE refusing new Ofcom rules
Help please On Monday I cancelled 2 SIM only deals that are months out of contract and we no longer use. EE told me I had to give 30 days notice to cancel. I read today the notice from Martin that the new Ofcom rules that came in on Monday are if I am out of contract then providers are banned from charging the 30 days…
Giffgaff 40gb for £20 PAYG isn't happening
The recently advertised 40gb data for £20 goodybag purchase for PAYG customers was supposed to be rolled out July 3rd. However customers, such as myself, have received the old 20gb data, not the advertised 40gb. Their user community forum doesn't know what's happening and my query to their customer service is yet to be…
Pocophone f1 help
Does anyone know if it's possible to set preferential internet connection on Pocophone f1 please? For example my previous mobile had a setting which allowed wi fi connection as primary and data connection as secondary so that I don't waste data at home or at the office. Recently bought Pocophone and can't find this…
ID Mobile does not give me my PAC
What can I do?
EE competition commission payback
Does anyone have any information about the following? I understand that the competitions and markets authority have ruled that we and others have been overcharging customers. When the price of the handset is paid off they continue to charge. My understanding is they need to pay us back. Does anyone have an update of when…
