    Just got an Email saying phone has now been blocked and that they will charge £5 for blocking it - and that I have a -£4.97 credit on my phone!

    A few weeks ago I requested and received a PAC from easymobile ...

    Can I still use it on the Fresh sim I have ordered even thought they say I have to have a new number ?
    I think a PAC has a life of 30 days. Check this, but you may need to ask for a new one
  • woo hoo! Have got my Fresh SIMs through the post at last. Been through the porting process online so me and ds will be able to carry on using our phones and keep our numbers. Hopefully it should all go swimmingly from now on and I'll worry about unlocking the phones when the Fresh credit runs out but £15 each should last us both a few months as we rarely use them. Thanks to everyone who has been of help to me :)

  • I had a text from EM saying that the service would carry on until my port has gone through to Fresh.
  • I got my free Sim, then a week later got another one! I called Fresh up and I asked if they wanted me to send it back? they said I could keep it as would cost me £ to post it back to them. It has £10 on it and is a new no but hey I dont mind.

    They can't block the phone, only the sim.

    I had the same message and can't ring out or text, but for some reason people can still text me and call me on it :confused:

    I had a text saying that on 3 December. But I checked on the website the following day and my balance showed at -0.53. I was furious that I had been allowed to get overdrawn. I had notified them much earlier that I didn't want an overdraft facility. I only used the sim to text other easymobile users at 1p a text and the odd competition. My credit just seemed to disappear. I'm ignoring the minus credit at the moment, I'll see what happens. :confused:

    Oh well, it was good while it lasted. Back to my old 02 sim now. :snow_grin :rudolf:
  • My fresh sim finally arrived today. I ordered it on the 30th Nov!!! Meanwhile I've seen a better deal on PAYUGO from T Mobile. Order one online and you get free texts evenings and weekends for 30 days every time you top up with £10. http://www.t-mobile-campaign.co.uk/sim/ TOC's here: http://www.t-mobile-campaign.co.uk/sim/toc.php

    So I've connected to them instead of Fresh and I'm porting my number though to them. What should I do with the fresh credit, just use it up? How long does it last?
