1p Mobile - Data charges on day of boost auto-renewal
Just a warning for anyone that has their data boosts set to auto-renew. I noticed that I had been charged for data between 0000 and 0059 on the day my boost renewed. When I queried it I was told that it was because it can take 30 min for the new boost to be applied, leaving a gap. They credited the 80p back to my account…

Lycamobile - Roaming cutting out after a couple of days
After being on a 3GB data deal with Lebara, I found that it was a bit tight and I wanted a bit more data. At the beginning of the year, I found a 4GB data deal for Lycamobile, with a new customer promotional period of 6 months, using the tools on this site, so I switched to it. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to…

Mobile Phone Network Marketing
I recently received two letters delivered on the same day to my home address from my mobile phone network. However, both of the letters were addressed to people who do not reside at my address, and who were not known to me. I immediately thought that my account had been hacked, and contacted the network urgently. After a…

Looking for cheap basic handset / contract sim with cashback redemption (like the old days)
For many years I've taken out cashback (via redemption) deals for myself and family members. It has worked out cheaper to get them with a basic handset rather than sim only when taking into account cashback. The last one I took out was through Fonehouse for a 30GB Data sim (Talkmobile) with a basic Doro 6040 mobile (The…

Cheapest SIM to receive texts on?
Hello. I'm looking for a SIM that would only be used to receive text messages on. Rates per minute / text / MB are not that relevant, as I'm not going to use those, unless I have to to keep the number. The important thing is to keep the number indefinitely without having to top up often. Suggestions welcome.

getting confused on roaming charges
Hi folks, Please do fill a knowledge gap for me here. Lyca Mobile, we have a package that includes EU data roaming, there's a lovely big tick saying as such. Which seems to infer that data costs would be included when we head over to Poland next week. But, these days, perhaps thats not the case. The more I read, the more…

MSE Mobile Comparison Tool - Fake Deals?
Do the deals the comparison tool advertises actually exist? Tried to click through on a couple now and get taken to a generic page on the retailer's website. I guess MSE still gets the affiliate money even if you end up going for a more expensive deal on the same site once you've been misled into clicking through.
