What's the catch? Why is everyone talking about guff gaff instead of this?

There is no catch at the moment ....what everyone is concerned about is how long it will continue but as far as I'm concerned it's make hay whilst the sun is shining

There is no comparision between Giffgaff and Ovivo. I was on Giffgaff but moved to Ovivo in August.

You have to pay for Giffgaff (PAYG) whereas Ovivo is completely free (NoPayasYouGo) after the first £10.

Ovivo is on the vodafone network - reasonably reliable

Giffgaff is on the O2 network - sometimes goes down.

Why would anyone consider Giffgaff, contract phones or whatever?

When at home he can use the internet through wi-fi of the home internet connection and disable the data connection through 3G...It's rubbish anyway..Pathetically slow and rather useless. I always connect to the internet through free wi-fi hotspots when out and about.

500Mb is a huge data limit for a mobile phone especially for a 12 year old. Ovivo gives you 100Mb for free and that has been plenty for me for use in emergency (well it was not a real emergency but anyway I mean the occasional use).

Do you know if their SIM will work in a locked Vodafone phone?

It's gone up to 200 Mb now
