1pMobile have taken £10 when I had a £14 balance
I had a balance of just over £14 and it came time to pay for my £8 monthly boost, which auto renews. Given that I have auto topup set to work when my balance goes below £2, I assumed they'd take the £8 and I'd have £6 left as my balance, but they've taken £10 via my payment method so I'll now have a balance of £16. I'm…

RWG terminating all users on e-sim's without warning - zero notice cut off
My partner received a PAC code yesterday out of the blue. Alarm bells started as all the reasons that you look for this happening suggest it's part of "sim swap fraud" so whilst trying to contact RWG, a pointless exercise it seems, she went around changing all her passwords and 2FA contact number. The PAC code wasn't just…

Mobile Networks with standing order payment options
I know its a long shot but thought I'd ask if anyone knows of mobile networks that provide standing order payment options to top up especially for those on PAYG, I'm not talking about direct debit, I've had networks on that before which withdrew money before the specified date and that ended up causing me problems. I know…

Replace mobile number on O2 after banking impersonation scam?
My mother in law has been the victim of a banking impersonation scam, with crooks managing to gain access to her bank account and stealing half her cash before fraud detection kicked in and blocked any more attempts. Mercifully it sounds like the bank will be returning what has been lost. We're now very conscious that her…

Wifi calling on Tesco Mobile PAYG
Tesco use the O2 network. O2 don't currently offer WiFi calling to their PAYG customers, which I assume is why Tesco don't offer this service. I believe O2 will offer this service to its own customers by the end of the year. Does this mean it will also be available with Tesco.

Lebara - What counts as a new customer?
Hello, I am looking to move from Virgin to Lebara, for 2 reasons: 1. The greed in their price hike and I am days away from the end of my 12 month contract. 2. I want to stay with Vodafone network. I was previously with Lebara 12 months ago. My question is, if I move over does anyone know if I will still be regarded as a…

Lebara - Best way of getting back onto a MSE deal?
Hello,I've been with Lebara quite a while, and I'm now on their standard pricing. MSE tells me they're doing cheaper packages for new customers. Is my best option to port away from Lebara to a different network, and then go back after a month, or are Lebara happy to move existing customers onto deals? Thanks.

Vodafone continued charging my Pay Monthly after I moved to PAYG
My Vodafone Pay Monthly Contract ended 9th July 2024. I asked them to move it to PAYG. On 13th August 2024 my PAYG Simply plan was activated and I was buying their £10 Big Value Bundle, each month. Then this year 2025 we were planning on moving house all was going well when we got a call from the back saying we had…

Lebara 100GB rolling plan – what can you actually do with it?
Bit of a daft question, but I don’t want to look daft in front of a friend.
Friend is switching from O2 after a messy cancellation. Tried PAYG but kept topping up too much. She’s now looking at Lebara’s 100GB rolling plan. International calls are nice, but data is the main thing – she can always use WhatsApp for calls.…

No true ‘Pay as you go’ on Smarty/ID mobile?
I have a spare phone that I like to keep for emergencies. I also like it to be on a different network to my main phone (EE). It’s currently on Giffgaff but the O2 reception in my area is very poor and Vodafone doesn’t work at all so I’d like to try Three. I keep a small amount of credit on it and only use it for a call a…

Using MSE link for O2
People might be interested to know that O2 makes it very tricky to keep your existing O2 number if you go for one of MSE's SIM-only deals. The deals O2 offers on its website are so expensive, so I used an MSE link to get a much cheaper deal. But when I came to transfer my number, I couldn't find out how to do it. After…
