    No adverts here either. It's slow by comparison with other networks for me, but for the money (and occasional use) it's unbeatable.

    I have been using Ovivo for a few months. No connection or quality problems. Once I called Customer Support to clarify something. They were courteous and knowledgeable.
    Couple of gripes though! If I need more minutes in a particular month and buy a paid package, I will lose free allowances of the Freedom package.
    Calling abroad is expensive; like 20p per min to European countries.

    So, I still have accounts with couple of other companies. That means using more than one phone. Thinking of buying a multi-sim phone at eBay.

    Even giffgaff charge 16p.

    Orange PAYG charge 14-25p for UK calls. Calls abroad cost £1/min.

    I've been on Ovivo since november,no problems except I cant receive mms messages but that might be because my phone is rooted.
    I have yet to see any adverts when browsing either

    Not seeing adverts (you and me both) probably means, in the light of the recent email from Ovivo, that unless we change our settings in the next few days we're going to be effectively cut off.

    I can't get a data signal since about lunchtime. Bit annoying but it is free. They seem to have reactivated the adult content filter as well, via Vodafone instead of Ovivo
