3 really is great for low users, if the signal is poor try Delight on EE, same 321p rates, no free data but £3 for 500MB.

You will get 4G on 3 but no 2G service, whereas Delight is EE 2&3G

If there's no 2G does that just mean there's no 'non smart-phone' signal.

Like for example; using an old Nokia phone to send or receive an sms?

Yes, only 3G upwards. Unless 3 get approval to buy o2 it will remain such.

So, Delight is the new leader.........as I would need a 2G signal too as often I use a 'brick' for it's durability and battery life.

Though there's always at least one major flaw with all the companies - As you don't get any data usage on Delight and so would have to buy a 30 day bundle.

Does anyone know which network Delight use?

Why do you have to? You can PAYG 1p/Mb.

EE

Unfortunately in the mobile shop I went to you couldn't buy PAYG EE sims - only bundles.

Still waiting for the post then.

EE

Sounds okay, if it's an actual MB and not 'one MB minimum' - every time you access 3g.

Edit; The EE signal seems to be the same as o2 here - bad. I received an EE sim card through the post - 'new number to be sent as soon as I enter the sim card into an unlocked phone'.

No sms several hours later. But when I was down town - bing! There it was - the sms message.

So it appears there's no network coverage here - though website says good indoors and outdoors 2g coverage for my address. The fibbers!

The search continues...........

No not since CPW sold it, now run by Vodafone as a arms at length sister company, you can only order online or call them. I ordered Sat and it arrived Tues at 10am...quickest sim delivery I have ever had. Doubt very much any CPW still have stock of sims, if they did they probably would be disconnected past its sell by date or as old stock (unless returned to CPW head office) as I think it was March this year the Vodafone buyout completed.
