Was on a good Sim Only deal for 12 months.
It has just gone up by £6, I threaten to leave & get the same deal + 250MB data extra.
Happy now!

OK i realise the phone companies are in it to make money & lots of it.
But how many people barter for a better deal?
And i did lay it on thick that i had been a customer for 15 years!

Will look around next year for other deals as i do have a sim free phone.
 
I'm pretty much the same however for the past 3 years O2 have categorically refused to give me any more

Been with them for almost 10years now

600mins
1000texts

two bolt ons worth £7 each (i think)

1. 200 extra mins
2. unlimited internet

= 800mins
1000texts
unlimited download/web (fair use policy)

Cost?

£12.50 per month

Pffft aww well, maybe next year


I forgot to add i'm on a 1 month contract sim only thingy. I have to give 1 month notice if I want to leave. Suits me fine

I always do, a couple of weeks back my provider said I had gone over my 2gig data allowance for the month by 6gig and it would cost something like £60 on top of my bill, after speaking to 3 different people and threatening to leave, the extra £60 some how vanished :thumb:
 
I'm on Giffgaff PAYG sim
I get

500 mins
Unlimited texts
1Gb of data
All for just a £10 and no contract
 
With Virgin, 400 Minutes, unlimited texts, 1Gb bandwidth, Sim Card only, no contract, using iPhone 4

£6.49 pcm :)

My two year contract ran out with them last May and they phoned me up mid-April trying to get me to sign up again for another one or two year contract. I said I'd be going elsewhere and that deal is what I got.

I'm not a great one for rabbiting on the dog and I always have minutes left over every month.

Call their bluff, believe me they want your custom at any price.
 
I have a good deal but only as each year I threaten to leave my supplier!
But always good to shop around, as good deals to be had.
And so easy to take your number with you these days.:thumb:
