Atasas

Call me an devils advocate,, but one more MVNO is on the way out?
It is always, that business, the one's that don't look after customer interest either profit big or go bust or...
orI talk load of cobblers...

Something like "attempted competitive" of an offer?

But Tethering is not allowed!

2.13 Data usage under any UK Plus Pass is for mobile internet services and data consumption actually on your handset. It does not include using file to file peer sharing or using your handset as a modem to connect other devices such as laptops and tablets - also known as "Tethering".

Take it or leave it sort of a thingy

Don't suit me, but somebody might want to have a go?

Plenty of good, but not good enough for me deals, as 6gb isn't quite enough for me..

Had response- explanation- its "Three", they are using for UK, for other European destinations, those are different... (I believe the same frequencies, as Three, just different service masts in accordance to the Country)... if 100mb is worth dragging your dongle over for

Not an option, I'm in a vehicle during the day (not constantly but this is the crux of the problem).

Same as me! oh the joy of needing sending photos etc back to the office and regardless of BS what networks say about as why they charge the money, very often I end up- failed attachment etc.


Although in my case, I need load of data for tethering, it is harder to get "providers" to come to the sense, that it is still my data, currently I am almost stuck with half price offer deal from EE for data SIM.
Since BT swallowing it, it doesn't look as if similar offers will be anytime soon.

"Can't beat them, join them!"?
If you are being riped of by BT for home Internet, £5 discount might make their service almost bearable, other way its Three and currently other MVNO's don't offer (aren't allowed) many sensible deals.

Some of the brands are atrocious for service quality (vodaFv4s, iD), some are really slow- (O2 resellers, as GiffGaff), some are in 20'th century with their web-support, but all as one are after your money!

I can not stand more than 30 day contract idea, complicates things a bit, but before you'd sign any sentence to your wallet content, you doing the right thing, researching the best deals-(PROMISES), you can get for your money.

linky again

I've recently had a really good discounted deal from EE, so they are still offering discounts.

Linky or it didn't happen!

Haven't seen no more decent promotions from them, since take-over...
Still on a half price 25gb plan, but I could register for a new account no probs!:cool: as some say, I've become less loyal than Nectar Card

I posted both deals I got, I had unlimited talk/text and 4GB for £11.99 and now have unlimited talk/text and 16GB for £19.99.

The 16GB deal was available to all but ended yesterday, sorry...

Great work again Atasas. How would you directly compare Talkmobile to Tello?

Atasas

Thank you for a praise good man!

Tough one!
Importance- value of service, from my perspective
1- Amount of data;
2-Speed/quality of data connection
3- CS and and in general support

Hence I can not split the hairs, as TalkMobile has few and Tello has some different advantages and disadvantages, but might have different degree of importance to you?

1- Amounts of data- Both have equally good, for low data usage/cheap plans. I, having to use different SIM's and Tello's need to have data main SIM connection has put it in slight disadvantage, comparably, in my circumstance, to TM, that is using better 2G network for coverage in rare circumstances(2g-phone calls).

2- Price the same, but I love plain KISS pricing of Tello. speed, as little I used, they seemed to work different speeds, but no clear, single winner, in that respect=Both absolutely equal in my tests.

3- Customer Support, on the phone TM- 7/10 (as I don't like going through "monkeys bars", in punching numbers/sections/departments etc); Tello-9/10! (not joking!)
CS web support and convenience as top-up somebodies else's number option, clear pricing, Pay-Pal support, checking calls listings and general cleanliness of site- Tello- 9/10; TM- 2/10

Based on that and decent (big data consumer deal ) offer end at TM, it still has good place in my multi-SIM phone for making calls priced £0.10p up to an hour call (mine usually lasts up to 2 mins anw),
Whilst for a separate phone, I will order one more new SIM from TELLO

Compared with the rest of rip-off nuisance of the networks, these 2 stand shoulders above others, your pick! , I'd recommend both, as I believe, you are not using as much data and in current day and offer period, there aren't good/suitable sized data offers for me anyway.
