Sim only pay the difference mid-month
Hi all. Is there any sim only deal that allows you to pay the difference mid-way through your monthly allowance to upgrade to the next package up (or higher)?

Vodafone Total Rollover
My contract expires in a couple of weeks, and it seems I'll be better off on PAYG. I'm trying to understand this total rollover thing, and I cannot find the answer to my question: Any credit carried over, is that used first the following month, or is the credit of the new bundle used first?

EE/Quidco - "Please call us to discuss your order"
I just tried to buy a 12 month sim-only contract with EE, clicking through from Quidco, which should get me £45 cashback.

My iPhone 6 has had it and I am cross because it’s only lasted about 2 years (having upgraded from a Samsung which lasted a lot longer). I am happy with my sim contract so am looking to buy a phone outright. I don’t have any affinity to any particular brand, neither do I care about having the newest/fanciest or whatever…

EE 12 month discount expiry on 18 month contract
Hi, I was on EE a year ago and got myself an "upgrade". Over the online chat, the agent approved my transfer to a new SIMO 20gb plan for £16pm. That's all I was told. I assumed it would be a 12 month contract as usual but turned out it was 18 months. Few days later I asked why that was case and I was told it's because this…
