this offer looks interesting was thinking of getting a sim card for my daughter but the terms are not very clear to me I understand you pay £10 and carphone whearhuuse pay £10 so you have £20 of credit. How long do you have to use this not sure what decremented means? I take it you have 30 days to spend the £200

The way I read it you have 30 days to use the £10 free promotional credit but it isn't very clear:j :j0 -
I know Fresh(CPW) use the T-mobile network, anyone got any idea what Easy Mobile use. Could make a difference to people. I have great indifference to T-mobile, bad call quality/coverage and dreadful customer service. Prefer Orange or Vodaphone.0

Just had a look at easy mobile, they use T-mobile as well, am going to give them a try as my orange contract is ending and I dont use my phone that much to justify the contract!0

Thats how they'll make their money0

moved to the Mobile Phones board as the offer runs until June it's a more general thing rather than a Grabbit0
-
personally, fresh mobile is a better deal than easymobile. and with fresh, you can walk into any CPW for customer service. to keep the line, you only need to make a call or sms every 60 days.0
