What Provider to go to for basic Nokia

rose28454

My husband has a Nokia 5210 on an Orange PAYG contract. However his phone is a bit nackered and he wants something similar. He is looking for a similar phone on a monthly contract ( he uses about £25.00 per month on PAYG) and wants to keep his number. I used The Mobile Outlet for my sons contract last year and he is taking them to court for cashback. Therefore a good deal rather than cashback would be preferable. Any ideas?

To keep the current phone number you need to call up the current provider and ask for a Porting Authorisation Code (PAC). This stays valid for 30 days. You then pass this PAC onto the new provider, tell them who the current provider is and with a few days the number will port over.

I suppose it depends on who your husband calls.

Vodafone have an add-on called Vodafone family for £5 per month you can have 4 numbers or £7 for 6 numbers, you then have unlimited calls between these people. Only one person has to pay the £5 or £7 and all have to be with Vodafone, and any of you can call the other for free (each call for up to 60 mins, just hang up and re-dial if you want longer free time).

You can add Vodafone family to either a contract or PAYG.

T-Mobile have a MyFaves tariff where you can select 5 numbers and get unlimited calls and texts to them, though call rates outside the low inclusive calls are high.

T-Mobile have their Flex tariff too.

O2 seem to have a few tariffs that look good.

Have to say can't really see any that impress me anywhere other than Three or having Vodafone family and others on Vodafone.
