I bought a £4 Talk and Text bundle yesterday.     

Does anyone know when they debit your account balance?

It should take me under £5 and trigger an auto top-up, but it hasn't yet.

I know that when you buy a bundle via a web browser the option to use existing credit or make a payment is given. Have never tried it by any other means.

In the past, my credit has immediately been debited but maybe things have changed?

Re Asda PAYG - lol, sort of lol, we changed from Three to Asda a few months ago and then Asda hypes prices.

Just by way of an update and FYI...

Checked my linked credit card statement this morning, and it shows the £4 debited for the bundle.    

So your phone balance stays unaltered, and they just take the bundle cost off your registered CC.    Job done, easy!!


I think if you didn't have a saved CC, then they would deduct the cost from your balance, which you may have had to top up first.

Anyway, just thought i'd let you all know.
