    i use giff gaff goody bag 3gb,, 3g data for £12.50 pay as you go. if you dont want to go onto a contract. check your signal first before committing to either.

    I believe this is £12.50 per month where as the other one is until you have used up the data if an infrequent data user this is a good option.

    I still use my PAYG dongle I got from Voda many years ago where the credit never runs out have only topped it up once.
    I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.

    Giffgaff is the way to go!

    This site is doing an offer, if you order via their affiliate link you get £5 extra topup when you activate

    :SPAM: offer.web.com/order-sim

    Ovivo closure sure had brought out the GG spammers....

  • You guys might know. I've just changed to 3 topped up £10 and my3 says I have the 150mb allowance.
    Had a quick look at the internet and now my credit is £9.99...and the allowance is still 150mb..... is that right?

    Marvin, Yes I am an infrequent / low rate data user (no txts or calls). I think the EE SIM looks almost as good at the Ovivo one for that purpose.
    TBH, I did think the Ovivo SIM was slow at times and the Ad pop-ups would always pick the most inconvenient time to....pop-up.
    Apparently I'm 10 years old on MSE. Happy birthday to me...etc

    I NEED HELP!!

    Is it possible to have the same PAC code with 2 different phone numbers?

    Basically I have 3 Ovivo accounts, one for me and 2 for my parents.

    I requested PAC's for all 3, received email confirmation for mine only. I then checked -
    http://ovivomobile.com/pac.php

    and found that there is a unique PAC code for mine but the same PAC code for the other 2 Ovivo accounts. Is this possible?

    After 3 days of porting the number to 3 Mobile, my Ovivo account has been disconnected and connected to 3 Mobile. But the other 2 are still connected to Ovivo.

    Any ideas of what to do now?

    Yes it does seem to be possible to have the same PAC code for mulitple numbers. I ported 4 numbers from OVIVO and they all had the same PAC code. All 4 ports to Talk Mobile seem to have gone through OK today.

    Hubby with them. Never had any issues. Except his first bill for some reason he was charged twice but 1 call sorted it straight away and they were most apologetic.

    Ordered a 3 321 sim
    Does it have to be a special sim? I have an unactivated 3 sim several years old; if I fund it , won't I be on this tariff automatically ?

    I have requested porting to 3, but so far I that appears it has only partially been completed.
    If I ring out with the new 3 sim card, it displays my original Ovivo number to the receiving phones.
    If some one rings me on the original Ovivo number, the phone that has the original ovivo sim rings.
    When I removed the original Ovivo sim from the phone & left the new 3 partly ported sim in a phone,& I ring the original Ovivo number, it comes as " number is not recognised."

    Also my3 online a/c, wont recognise using the original 3 number or the ported ovivo number.
    Has any one else experienced anything like this?
