  • Just avoid Vodafone at all costs. Contention is horrendous - I'm on 80mb sf2, but I'm lucky to get 5mb downloads at peak times. Netflix etc are unwatchable.
    Currently having to go down official complaints/ombudsman route as they failed to honour my cooling off period.

    I think EE inclusive calls cost:


    £4 landlines
    £8 landlines & mobiles


    a month
  • I took the deal with Now broadband for £18.00 to include anytime calls including mobiles. Chuffed :o)
    Yeah, I had a quick look and it's a mixed bag, BT & Virgin both charge for mobile calls (Virgin have a £2 a month add-on to negate this, didn't check BT).

    Sky, NowTV & Plusnet do include them in their anytime packages at least.
    If I ruled the world.......

    I hope you purchased via Quidco for £90 Cashback. :beer:

  • Did you also take advantage of the £70 cash back offered by TopCashBack, lowering your bill to under £13 a month?
  • Nope didn't apply for any cashback deals because I have done so in the past many times (mainly car insurance) and never had a penny back from Quidco nor topcashback

    I binned the whole cashback thing a long time ago for this very reason.
    Now if it was guaranteed cashback it would be a different matter.

    I took this same £18 NowTV internet deal with the free calls earlier in the year and received £85 Quidco cashback no problem - so it works for some. :eek:

    Best to clear your cookies immediately prior to purchase.

    It’s always worth trying to make a purchase through TopCashBack et al if it’s financially prudent to do so, imho;...nothing ventured nothing gained.

    I do agree about the car insurance cashback deals though,...they do flatter to deceive.:(

    However, I’ve had plenty other ‘cashback’ that’s actually materialized over the past few years.
    Have a look at my post #7 from yesterday, in this thread:
    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6052376/4g-mobile-router-to-buy-or-not-to-buy-that-is-the-question

    Earlier this year I made a substantial purchase from a company called BetterBathroomsUK;..the purchase was made through TopCashBack and promised 10% cashback.

    A few days after my goods were delivered ‘BetterBathroomsUK’ ceased trading and were in the hands of the administrators. Bye-bye cashback ;....or so I thought,...however, to my absolute amazement I received said cashback in full about 4 months later.

    The cashback sites don’t always come up trumps,...but it costs nothing to try.:money:
