Thanks mate,
When I said I wanted to leave O2, the first questions they asked was "why?" and "who was I going to?"
I said thinking of moving to Tesco, and O2 said "they are just a virtual provider that use the O2 network anyway"

So reception should hopefully be the same. :yesnod:

Edit: Oooeerr - Psymon's got me worried now... :woowoo:

How happy are you with the phones you have now?

- 250mb is a shocking amount of data (barely covers email, WhatsApp and updates to phone apps), so I would be asking what you use your phone for beyond making calls? (no offense!)

If you plan to use data a lot more... I would *massively* recommend the Virgin SIM package (cant recommend the exact name)

- £15/mth
- unlimited Minutes
- Unlimited Texts
- Unlimited Data (first 3.5Gb/month full speed, anything after that down to 3G speed)
- 30-day contract
- Uses the EE Network (so Orange / T-Mobile)
- Works on tethering (Ive been using a laptop off it when at my new flat for the last month waiting for broadband to be installed... no charges!!!)

Only oddities are if you get a MMS message, you need to retrieve it online (MMS is an ancient tech) and dialing voicemail calls your own number on the screen - but Ive been really impressed.

That's £30/mth with no scary blips to the bill ;)

MGF Register - North Wales Rep
TF135 in XPrimerGrey ;-) - Toyo manifold, TTMK3, ZnF Remap and stripes when Lee gets his ar*e in gear :) .... Oh, and a GREEN SUBFRAME!

Haha - fair comment mate :P

I didn't want to upset either you or Dave, so went for a Nokia Lumia 820.
500 mins
5000 txt
500mb data
bill capped at £22.50 (so no nasty surprises)
£20 per month

Have to say, i like windows as the OS... :yesnod:

I can see you ending up with a small barefoot runner with a cleft stick to fetch messages for you, yet... :yesnod: :nonod: :yesnod:

Ain't it funny, how time slips away...?

I'm loving the fact that when I updated my Hotmail contacts list yesterday on the PC, my phone contacts were automatically updated. :yesnod:

Just one of the reasons why I'm liking Windows mobile so far. :broon:

With some of the bright coloured cases you can get for the Nokia range of handsets I have to admit they do look a bit 'Chad Valley'.

Mine is black BTW ;)

And going off subject a bit...Paula says "ahhhhhwwww - they are sooo cute!"
I'm not so sure about the one in the middle though, looks like he might be trouble when he grows up...

Always better to act your shoe size than your age Ben, in my experience. Growing up is way over rated...;)
