Bounce.mobi/PM-Connect Scam
I was recently subscribed to a wrestling content club without my knowledge. £2.50 was added to my phone bill after interacting with an advert that took over my phone screen. The advert had no available options to dismiss, and appeared taking over my whole screen more like ransomware. I could not dismiss the advert, so…

Calling 03 numbers from a mobile
Well, having asked Mr Google and reading various websites, including Ofcom, I am still perplexed. I took MSE's advice last year and opted for a 12Gb Lebara monthly plan, with unlimited calls and texts and am generally very happy with it, so much so that I bought plans for my wife and our grandson. However, we have been…

I'm changing my sim only contract from 3 to O2. I've filled in all the details for my new O2 provider, including PAC code. Do I have to do anything to notify my old provider, 3, or do they know I'm going because I asked for a PAC?

We then discovered they excluded 01, 02, 03 and o7 numbers with a charge of 45p per minute. (Obviously we should have been a lot more careful in reading the…

I took the sim only deal with a £40 voucher at the end of 6 months. Found the signal great, working well as we travel through Spain, no roaming charges. Reached the end of the 6 months, they've written to me, and I've claim my Amazon voucher, absolutely no problems. But what next, do I cancel this contract, and and start…
