But we don't know how the OP uses his phone. Does he just text and phone to the same mobile, only 2 or 3 numbers, does he only call landlines etc. Only thing we can do is point him to several companys and let him work it out on his usage.
From MY usage, virgin offered the best tariffs and the best coverage in my area. I dislike Fresh due to the fact they ripped my of once, and easy because I do need like giving operators my bank details or credit card details so they can take money out of my account when they feel my balance has dropped too low.
Its up to the OP to work it our himself on the info given in the companies tariffs, the coverage, and the horror of owning a fresh or easy mobile sim.

They dont take money out of your account when they FEEL your balance is too low. It is at a pre-determined amount. The original posting of Virgins tariff was highly inaccurate as already pointed out. Coverage of Fresh and Easy is exactly the same as Virgin as they use the same Network, T-Mobile.

Thats exactly the same thing! Its pre-determined by EasyMobile, not by the customer.

Depends what the OP uses his phone for. You decided to miss out ALL of easymobile charges, probably cos the list is too long. That too is highly inaccurate.

Also - Virgin to Virgin texts are 3p.

I would rather be happy spending 5p on all texts, than saving 2p texting a handful of people on virgin, when you are charged 100% more at 10p a text, texting everybody else on a different network.

Everyone will have a personal, we (my family) are all on O2 the old genie online sims with the 300 free texts & 300 free wap mins & 150 (?) free mins the following month for every £15 you top up this month & a % back in call time periodically & now thanks to this board "treats" and bolt ons (not free) but useful to customise it to get the best deal tweaked to suit yourself.

But I think everyone will agree, it's cheaper to be on the same network as the people you call most often, hence we are all on O2.

If your wifes going to stick with orange & most of your calls are to her, perhaps that's the best one for you.
