iPone 13-" eSIM compatible and network-unlocked"
I am on the verge of becoming an iD customer with a new iphone 13 mini. I want to use the Airalo app in Turkey so I can make a call as soon as I land- there is no WiFi at the airport. The app is asking me if “eSIM compatible and network-unlocked”. I am not mega tech savy with mobiles and this will be my first ever new…

Getting a new PAYG
Mobile novice here, only ever had one mobile! On a Vodaphone PAYG now, looking for a new mobile (old one is glitching) that is PAYG. Do I need to get something that is 5g compatible, I hardly use my mobile, nearly all my internet usage is on my PC? I have a local Carphone Warehouse but I am such a mobile novice I can see…

Talkmobile
Hello I am currently with Plusnet mobile. I've heard they may be closing soon, so I'm looking to move elsewhere. My first thought was to go back to Sky or Tesco but have been reading bad things about the O2 network, So I'm thinking of trying Talkmobile on the Vodafone network. Does anyone have any good/bad thing to say…

RWG
Hi, I was ready to swap to Asda Mobile but then I saw RWG being mentioned here a few times so have looked into this. I'm a bit confused how it works. Is this correct: If I don't buy a bundle, the SIM is free but I need to buy a top up and get charged 5/5/1 (voice/txt/data).If I get the ukrwg0 (FREE £5) bundle, getting the…

Switching from Lebara -> Lycamobile
I can request a PAC code from Lebara, and then port my number, but Lebara say I have £10 credit with them. I'm unsure how this came about because I signed up to the £5/month MSE offer some time ago and don't remember paying an extra £5 to start the process off, and their records don't seem to go back that far. Lebara don't…

EE PAYG roaming charges
Hi From June 6th EE are going to start charging £2.50 per day (or £10 for 7 days) to access my pack allowances when roaming in the EU. I don't want to move from EE but I do have a dual SIM (but not eSim) unlocked phone so I was wondering if there are any cheaper options available? It would be mainly light data use (general…

Help me out with Lyca Mobile SIM Deal
I have a plusnet SIM currently, but after they have given the option to go to EE (more expensive) or go elsewhere I found Lyca offering a better deal. I've never seen much about them about ordered a SIM/bundle but I am confused. They took £2.95 initial payment for the sim but there is no info in the confirmation as to how…

Phone stuck in bootloop.
Hi everyone, My daughter has a Poco X3, since yesterday it's been stuck bootlooping. It's running stock rom, not rooted. It came out of her bag doing this, so no rom update but maybe an auto updating app? It displays the Poco logo, and then reboots straight away. I've tried all the normal ways to get it out of the loop and…

Tesco Google Pixel 6a deal
Has anyone tried the Tesco google pixel 6a deal which reduces the phone charge to £234 if you take out a 1 month rolling sim card? I've read about it on hot uk deals but some people are suggesting that they are being charged the full price of the phone, if they cancel the sim card after 1 month. Anyone tried to cancel the…

Lebara - data cap
Dear All, Might seem a stupid question but when you reach your data cap, for example I have a 5Gb data bundle, will your data use stop or will Lebara automatically charge you for any data you use above 5Gb. Ideally I want a data cap and the choice of paying more for extra data rather than automatically being billed so…

1p Mobile.....can they do this ?
I took out a sim with 1p mobile which seemed reasonable at first but then 2 things happened. First of all they changed the contract terms which now allow them to take my money if I don't spend it according to their new rules. I contacted them and asked them to cancel it all and just refund me my balance, which is over…

Lebara - No VAT Invoicing
Having just switched from Three to Lebara, taking advantage of the MSE SIM only deal which is excellent, I have been in touch with Lebara via their chat and informed me that they can't give me a VAT monthly invoice. Wondering whether anyone else has had this issue and hoping there is no underhand reason?
