Best Sim-only Deals guide Discussion

I have just had a live chat with ID Mobile who I have a rolling one month contract sim only deal with, it was costing me £10 per month and I was getting 9gb data, unlimited calls and texts. I mentioned to the customer rep that I had found that Smarty are offering 30gb data for £10 per month, ID came back to me and offered 50gb data, unlimited calls/texts for £10 per month.
Its way more data than I need but at least I wont have to worry about running down my allowance.
If you are on ID Mobile contact them through live chat and get yourself an improved deal.

Dumb question. I've just switched from vodafone to Lebara. My port date is the 25th. So do I carry on using the Vodafone sim until then?

Yes, and when it stops working switch off your phone, swap SIMs and start up again. Should all go smoothly. I'm impressed with Lebara so far as a no-frills but good value package.

Thanks 
Good to hear your Lebara feedback. £45 a month cheaper than my current vodafone price with exactly the same data/mins!

Just signed up to Plusnet  sim only for £6 a month. £28 cashback through Quidco. Had Sky before same price etc with £30 quidco. So over 2 years works out at £3.58 a month.

It’s a great deal but just in case you weren’t aware or they didn’t let you know - there is no facility for short code/ number texting with Plusnet. This can be awkward if you need to pay to park etc

The guide indicates that Virgin Mobile uses the Vodafone network. I just wanted to check, as I think this incorrect.
For 2G, 3G and 4G I understand that Virgin still uses the EE network until "Autumn 2021". IF you use Virgin 5G network then this is currently Vodafone. The SIM changes dynamically.
Just wanted people to be mindful if they move and the network coverage isn't as expected.

ADVICE - I am currently with THREE and my deal ends tonight (11th).

I have just seen this for £8 (£6.50 with £18 cashback) via 3 party, same usage plus still with THREE!!

I have just spoke to THREE and they confused the hell out of me, stating about PAC codes/Numbers BUT stated my deal (was 12 months end tonight).
What do i need to actually do here? Three make no sense at all on the phone, just kept repeating they are matching deal but no third party (obviously).
Anyone advise? 
Thanks
