RWG's New Website, Plans and new Charges
RWG's new site has been up for a few days now and several of us have been having a few issues with a variety of things, so I thought it a good idea to start a new thread rather than have spurious comments spread over two other RWG threads. Logging in was my first problem. Although it obviously recognised my email address…

Sky sim only 1GB + unlimited calls & texts for £1/month
I think Sky have offered this before, but it isn't a standard price from them. https://www.sky.com/shop/mobile/plans/ 1 GB plan shows the standard price as £8 a month, but has a banner lower down saying "Now £1 a month". I've never used Sky for mobile, only for TV, and they can be a pain. Also the price isn't guaranteed to…

O2 Mobile Renewals

Lebara switching Sim only plan - Deals only available to new customers
With Lebara (not for much longer!) and needed more data pm so looked on a price comparison site - Lebara was the competitive and as I was already with them gave them a call.

Forgive me if this is a silly question, but my phone tech knowledge is limited. About three years ago my wife and I each bought a new mobile, her a Samsung A16 and me a Moto Go4(?), each costing about £100. We each have an O2 sim but from day one, when we are out about, I regularly struggle to get a signal while she has no…
