Smarty Account Closure
Hi I have been a Smarty customer in the past but my account is now closed and it looks like I can re-join with a new customer deal. Does anyone know how long, if at all, your account remains open after porting out? I would maybe have used them more but for the need to use a different email for each new deal. Many thanks

Price increase on EE, 1 week after starting contract
Afternoon all, So I just agreed to a new 24-month contract with EE and a new handset as part of the deal.

Lebara/Lyca 'Bundles' = Contracts?

I had just paid (mistakenly) for another 30 days with Lyca, and they claim their 'bundles' aren't refundable, even if you port out your old number. My understanding was that any contract ported out/cancelled by sms…
