Steer clear. They charge you to top up and they also levy a charge if you don't use enough minutes. There are exit charges too.

Better with Tesco, there are a few tariff and here's a link:

To avoid top-up charges, you can set up an auto refill that will replenish your balance everytime it drops below £2. Quite a handy feature I think, and oh yes, they dont charge you for it.

The 75p charge is pretty crappy ...... but its only if you dont use it spend £5 in 3 months........ its then charged at 75p every month until you spend £5


I think easy are great ..... free £5 from a referal ........ and you get your £10 back through quidco

and i won £10 in there number draw

I wouldn't bother with easy mobile, try Tesco's Value.
Easymobile are far from easy to deal with. They have plenty of little charges for inactivity, top-ups, and closing the account. Their customer service goes all deaf if you have a problem.
Either read easymobile's T&C with your solicitor first, or shop around for a cheaper better deal.
There are plenty of Tarrif finding sites about to match you mobile use.

Yes I know.You mentioned it before in another post. But PAYG customers don't always want auto topping up.

Good for you. I am letting other people know who may not have read the other post.

hurrah

If the service is that good. Why have punters left in droves,and why is the subscriber base so low?

As per my post in another thread, punters leaving in droves? Do you have any evidence of this. Subscriber base may be low as they initially did not offer handsets, only SIMS, and have only been available in the High-Streets since March 2006. They also probably do not have quite as much money to throw at advertising as 3, o2, vodafone and T-Mobile have done in the last 12 months.
