WIFI calling when switching sim only provider
My wife and I both have sim only deals and we live in an area where signal is relatively poor. She is with Vodafone and I am with BT Mobile. We both have 3 year old (or thereabouts) Galaxy S10s which we are happy with. My question: if we switch to another Sim only provider (e.g. Smarty or another), does anyone know if WIFI…

Iphone stolen: Three won't block IMEI and I can't get insurance
My Iphone was bought from Apple store in the US, and it was recently stolen from my hand in London. I immediately reported as stolen to the police. Now insurance won't pay out as my network provider Three say they cannot do this (as it was not bought from them), and Apple say this is not something they do. I'm at a…

3 mobile matched the offer MSE from ID Mobile £8 a month and also increased free data to 30GB
That's it really. The contract ends next month and they were only going to put up the price by nearly 100%. Thanks to MSE we went back to them and after a short conflab they offered to match. Apparently 3 own ID Mobile as well. I'm not that bothered forgoing the £50 Amazon Gift card. I've still got one I received as a…

ID mobile deal problem
I bought the ID mobile deal last November which included a £30 Amazon gift card after 90 days but although I have tried the link that the MSE admin gave me to query where my giftcard is and emailing giftcard direct I am getting nowhere and of course ID mobile say its a 3rd party issue. It is not such a good deal if I don't…

1pMobile - now you don't get unlimited calls and texts unless you spend £10 on a 25gb boost
I've just noticed that they've tightened things up yet more and now you only get the unlimited minutes and texts when you spend £10 on the 25gb boost. I've always assumed that unlimited texts and calls must cost them almost nothing as they have seemed to be only about £1 or £2 more per month than a data boost until now,…

New SIM starting before exiting old deal
I've had 3 Sims/numbers with EE for almost 2 years, which is coming to an end. My son is going to take on his own payment moving forward as he has turned 18 and I will continue to pay for myself and daughter. I have seen a good deal with Lebara that ends on the 16th (unsure if midnight 16th or 17th) on this site. I can't…

RWG issues?
Anyone else struggling with RWG at the moment? I'm on an EE powered SIM, showing as only connected to EDGE and calls/texts don't go out/come in at the moment. My wife is on Phone Co-op, a separate MVNO using EE, and that's working fine. I know there are a few other folk on RWG on here so wondered if it was just me. My…

All my mobile eggs in the 1pmobile basket?
I recently swapped my mobile broadband from Three (spit!) to 1pmobile which uses the EE networks. Works fine :-) I also have a mobile with an EE PAYG SIM which also works fine in important places (unlike 3 or O2). It doesn't do 5G (although the phone is capable) and is a bit pricey and especially so for roaming. So, I am…

Replacement for Moto G7 Power
My contract with EE runs out next month and I am thinking about having to buy a suitable "prefer still Moto G" replacement. I would, as before, prefer to buy my 'phone outright and have a renewed EE contract next month. My Moto G7 power has lasted well since 2019 and has had good volume for me - my hearing is not as good…

SIM only with extra data not specified in contract
I have had a SIM only monthly contract with ID Mobile for several years. Every few years I discuss moving to a contract with more data included but at the same £7 per month. This mornings discussion should have been easy I was trying to update from 20GB to either 40GB or 50GB. They first said the best I would get was 30GB…

Lebara and Live Voicemail
Just wondering if anyone on Lebara can confirm if they provide live voicemail on iPhones? I know this a new feature from iOS 18+ updates but according to Apple not all networks can provide this, even though it is not a specific network feature (like visual voicemail for example). Would happily have the Vodafone network but…

Is there a PAYG (Pay As You Go) backup SIM that does not require any ongoing top-ups?
Despite reading MSE and researching online, I haven't been
able to find a Pay As You Go (PAYG) secondary or backup SIM that doesn't
require ongoing top-ups. I understand that networks need to make a profit and
fund their infrastructure. My phone supports dual-SIM capability, and I like having an
extra network as a backup…

OTPs and Porting
Are people aware that there seems to be an issue when porting your number to another network in so much as OTPs are no longer received? This does not seem to be something that networks or institutions such as (banks, credit card companies) advise users of . . . . .

I’ve deleted them but they keep coming back in and showing as events for all the dates I’ve mentioned. They are from sites such as online casinos and spin to win and I block them in my junk folder but they keep…
