EE SIM Only - Blue Light Discount?
I'm thinking of switching to the EE 20GB SIM that's offered via BT for £9 a month. I'm currently on a 1pmobile £10 data boost but the 10gb isn't always enough.

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.

To warn other forum users, if your credit card expires during the period of your Lyca introductory offer and they are unable to charge you to auto-renew your ‘bundle’, you will not be able to update your account with the new expiry date and renew the bundle.
