Mozillion and OTP texts
I am considering moving to Mozillion because of the EE backbone. I'm aware that some users on Spusu (also an EE MVNO) have a problem receiving OTP codes, especially it seems, if they are using an eSIM. Can anyone on Mozillion comment on whether OTP's are working OK for them? Thanks.

EE third party carrier's
My Vodafone contract is almost finally up. I wish to move back to EE. But are third-party EE carriers worth while 1p mobile looks a good price cheaper than what my Vodafone price is now.
