Hi HampshireIan!  I used www.mobiles via a link on MSE last year and had no problems with getting the promised cashback or with the service in general.  Hope that helps.

Thanks very much for the reply.  That's put my mind at ease

Just received email from Virgin Mobile.  The're changing my tariff from 300MB to 2GB and increasing my monthly fee from £5.53 to £8.00. Says I can cancel if I don't like the new deal!   Cheek!!  Been with them since I got TV service in 2008 .  I'll search for a new deal now.

These days there is no such thing as brand loyality anymore.

I have decided to end my contract with EE.  I phoned them on February 9th to see if they could match a deal I saw with 3.  They wouldn't budge so I asked for a PAC code, which I got by text straightway and was told this would expire if unused by 9th March.  My contract ends on 3rd March.

I have been with EE (and when they were Orange) since I got my first phone and have never had cause to leave before so not sure of the procedure.  I read various times that you must give 30 days notice.  Does this mean that, as I phoned on 9th Feburary, I can't get out of it until 9th March or can I leave free of any termination fees on the 3rd.  My worry is that they try to charge me from the 3rd until the 9th.  Is asking for the PAC code enough to intimate your intention to leave or do you have to notify them with 30 days notice that you are definitely going to use the code and not let it expire?

Thanks in advance for any help.

You need to use the PAC (the C stands for code, so no need to call it a PAC Code!   ) and that will give the notice.

Do NOT cancel the DD whatever you do

Do any of the networks NOT have a 'fair usage' or other limit on using your data in Europe?
It's great having 30, 50Gb or even unlimited data but will you still be able to use it when roaming?

Vodafone Basics through MoneySavingExpert link - 5 gig £10 per month unlimited calls & texts
Vodafone Basics through uswitch  - 10 gig £10 per month unlimited calls & texts
Come on MSE best you negotiate a better Vodafone Basics landing page for your readers...
Very poor from MSE when the uswitch landing page offers DOUBLE the data for the same money...

I had an existing sim only deal with 3, which was up for renewal. They quoted me £12 for 8gb. When I rang to advise of this link for £8, they matched it immediately! Score!
