Switching mobile provider
I am a complete numpty when it comes to mobiles. I only have one primarily as an emergency measure - vehicle breakdowns, or contact when on holiday - so I rarely use the thing. 3 times a month if that. Currently I am with Vodafone who charge me £16/month. Firstly - is this charge reasonable? If not, how painless is it to…

RWG Mobile - Call Forwarding - Is a certain mobile number used for Call Forwarding?
I have one of their deals where I paid I think £5 and it resets each month with an amount of minutes, texts and data. Looking at Call Forwarding, I noticed that there is a number that the calls are being sent to that I don't recognize. I'm not sure if I should say what this number is? Is this, what looks like a mobile…

Lebara Data Munching
Having had mobile phones since the 90s I've always been aware of usage. Have just moved to Lebara and my usage for 3 hours, doing online SuDoku, was 200Meg of data. I was previously on Tesco and that would be about 3 weeks data. The phone is flooded with Vodaphone Ads too, whilst it's cheap it may be a false economy as I…

Tesco Mobile "premium rate" text that isn't
I've been with Tesco Mobile for over 20 years and always been happy with them, but the current situation is ridiculous. I am on a Pay Monthly contract and calls and texts to 01, 02, 03 number are inclusive. I recently sent a text to a UK landline 01420 which is the dialling code for Alton in Hampshire. I was surprised to…

Networks that allow group accounts and 1 payment
I’m trying to organise my parents mobile bills, they’re paying far too much for what they really use. Is there a network which allows group accounts/multi sims and 1 payment per month? Ideally an MVNO so no annual price rises and not with the o2 network thanks

Talk Home Mobile EU roaming
I recently took out a rolling 1 month contract with Talk Home Mobile via Moneysavingexpert at £5.49 for 15GB I understood (and it says on Talk Home's website) that the entire allowance was available for EU roaming. However, looking at the app it shows the 15GB in one box per my plan and then another 4GB in another box for…

Lebara “Free Roaming” Con
My husband and I have recently signed up with Lebara. The deal was recommended on ML website. Our main criteria when choosing new provider were supported Wi-Fi calling (we live out in the sticks with bad signal) and free roaming in Europe (we travel often). We opted for a deal with Lebara that ticked both boxes at a very…

I transferred the telephone number number from O2 to ID and was going to transfer the other number from ID to O2. I have changed the O2 to ID and now been told i owe nearly…

MSE O2 Sim only offers O2 claim new offers (only) for new phone number
O2 claim MSE Sim only offers are only available for a new phone number, ALTHOUGH I've been doing this for several years with my existing phone number. O2 have misled me on other counts, including a 12 month contract, not available through O2. Now, yesterday, the day after I agreed 2 new 24 month contracts, (50GB x £10 a…

Mozillian 30GB/month for £108 upfront, 24 months
Is it wise to pay upfront for 24 months to get this deal? Can't seem to find any major complaints about Mozillian SIM deals. There's just the risk of the big upfront outlay. I seem to be considering it. 30GB is far more than I need but will cover the odd month I need more rather than relying on RWG add-ons at the moment.…

Unlock iPhone 6
Anyone have experience or advice on unlocking an iPhone 6 which is currently tied to the Vodaphone network. Currently using an O2 PAYG Classic sim on an old Nokia but they have sent me a message that they are turing off 2g & 3g so need to find a 4g alternative. As I already have this old iPhone 6 laying around thought I…

Cheapest way to port numbers from same network?
Hi, Found an amazing deal for a contract and it's with the same provider I'm currently with 3. I'm on a one month rolling sim only with 3 currently and my new sim will also be 3. I have got my PAC code but what's the cheapest way to get a pay as you go sim without topping up £5/£10 to activate the sim? Must be a better way…

Wi-Fi calling on RWG?
Recently my RWG SIM card stopped working for calls from home which I suspect is down to a large tree right next to the building I live in blocking the reception, particularly when it got cloudy and was raining. I am wondering if I turn on Wi-Fi calls will RWG charge me extra or deduct data from my data allowance if they…

1p mobile - short verification codes not coming in
Hi. I have just switched to 1p Mobile and I'm very happy on their unlimited mobile data plan as signal is dire where I live with any other providers, except any short verification codes (4-6 digits) won't come to my phone. I have a Samsung S23 and it's a dual SIM. My Smarty SIM is still working until my PAC code goes over…
