    I was getting

    600mins
    500 text
    3gb Internet
    + Free Booster for £13.22 ex vat plus a £6.25 line discount

    I was happy to stay on this contract but when I called to continue the operator said Ofcom says you cannot be on contracts longer than 2 years so could not continue the offer which I have had rolling for the last 2 years.

    So i decided to get my PAC code. Was he telling me porkies or was he just misinformed?

    I was on 600 minutes 500 text unlimited internet and a extra booster i chose unlimited t mobile calls, for £5 a month (£10 discount.)

    Rang up today to renew was after same deal and the lady said no and would only do it for £8.66.

    PAC code requested will wait a week for call backs but if not bye t mobile. Cant believe I have been with them for over 7 years and they didn't seem to care.

    £8.66 was what I was paying - it's a good price. Paying £5 for that is an exceptional price.

    I would gladly accept paying £8.66.

    Yep i was on similar 600 mins, 500 text, web'n'walk+ and 1 free booster, called up for PAC even said i'd be willing to stay on same contract, no can do apparently....

    Bloke said i should just remove the web and walk plus and use the unlimited internet as my booster as there was no difference in speeds! Not sure about that and T-mobile wont seem to confirm it in writing.
    TESCO EVERY LITTLE change to the t&cs HELPS
  • I was told you could only renew a contract twice before you have to change. I assume this is to avoid having customers on old t&cs for to long.

    just got my 3 sim only deals renewed for another 12 month's

    to be honest was panicking a bit, after reading several posts about not being able to renew after 2 years etc

    after a bit of twoing and frowing with one of my sim only deals

    I got put through to Cancellations (probably retentions) from speaking to somone in an Indian call centre, looks like I got put through to UK cancellations (retentions)

    anyway I asked if he could renew all three on current rates etc
    No problem, yes I can do that for you

    2 x
    300 mins
    300 texts
    1 x booster
    for £5 each

    1 x
    500 mins
    600 texts
    1 x booster
    for £10

    result, back of the net :j:j
