Refusing to cancel my contract within 14 days as they are saying is a business contract
I have had the displeasure of dealing with a company called CLEAR VISION COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED in Birmingham. They said they were 02 and my contract was up for renewal. The contract was up for renewal and they had all my details so I assumed it was genuinely 02. It wasn't this is a separate company who 02 sell your…

Any views on SPUSU? Looking for a supplementary sim as 3 network coverage is so poor
Hello. I was seduced into taking out a 2 year contract with ID mobile on the 3 network. Actually a very good deal to include a pixel 8 phone. However - the signal is truly awful in places. So if I walk into Wrexham, for example, or go further into Wales the signal is pretty much absent. I've seen a sim offer with SPUSU (on…

A good alternative to Giffgaff PAYG?
I'm a very low mobile user, the odd voice call and texts and will search out free wifi rather than use mobile data so Giffgaff PAYG suits me fine as my credit will just rollover and get used as an when. Occasionally I'll buy a monthly data plan if I'm going to be away from home for any period. Unfortunately the O2 coverage…

EE Billing Fault
My bill is produced on the 4th of the month and should be visible in My EE from the 5th. But it isn't. After battling through their ridiculous AI Chat, I spoke to a human who told me there is a billing problem and to allow 72hours. They will apparently allow extra time for payment, which I took to mean they'll take the…

Cost of Lebrara calls to Isle of Man from mainland UK
The Lebrara T&C state for contracts with inclusive minutes state however on checking what calls do cost to the Isle of Man there's no information. The Lebrara helpline appears to use a chatbox. When first asked the question, it tells me the cost of an add on which seems to be for calling from whilst in the Isle of Man.…

Lycamobile customer service (lack of)
From a brief look at these forums it seems I should have been forwarned. I took a 2 year contract on the strength of clearly stated 14 day cancellation terms. It did not work the signal at home was non exsistant so decided to cancel well within the 14 day period. I tried to phone but could not get through, so went to their…

Success story: EE £8pm 50GB
Made this account to share my recent success with getting a better deal with EE. I was reading the MSE page on haggling, and saw the part that mentioned that I could text INFO to 85075 to find out when my contract ends. I got an automated reply, rather than about when my contract ends, but instead about the charges for…

SPUSU Terrible in all respects
SPUSU are total rubbish.. Their customer service is a disgrace and they bill you after auto renewal dates so you don't get the chance to cancel. Industry standard is to advise you of an upcoming billing period. They just threaten you if you complain. Its a tin pot outfit riding on the back of others. If you have a problem…

iOutlet or Grademobile for refurb phone?
Does anyone have experience with either please? The tool on here has narrowed my search for an iphone to these 2 sites. I can't see anything about minimum battery life on Grade mobile so I assume it's 80%. IOutlet offers battery upgrade for an extra £25 so am wondering if it's worth the extra expense for 20% (I assume) of…

Lebara sim without smartphone?
Hi. Does anyone know if you can use a new Lebara sim in a non smartphone? The website says that you have to activate the SIM by downloading the MyLebara app. Maybe this is a fairly new thing where the SIM is now linked to an app?
