The hack didn't result in any customers losing any money, and the emails were sent as a precautionary measure for you to keep an eye on just to make sure nothing went wrong. So that is completely irrelevant to this thread. Good deal and good store support from Carphone warehouse.

Good deal but data allowance is very poor if you have a smartphone you should have minimum 1gb.

Beware iD, appalling customer services if you ever need them, shame as some good deals. Think very carefully before signing up and check out customer service reviews with Google.

beware of ID, I had a terrible experience and ended up cancelling after 3 months.

"if you have good signal coverage with three", that's a joke in itself.
HaraldBB to furiousjammin
15 Oct 152#6
No, it's not. It's actually probably the best coverage ever. Took Mifi from EE to my holiday this year and there was hardly any signal available. And when available - it was 3G only. 3G in one place, download limited to 0,17Mbit.
Luckily I had phone from Three with decent data allowance - signal was weak, but usable. And in most places it was the only one network available.
Unfortunately they cut all retention deals and customer service is getting worse. ID Mobile appears to be good replacement - same coverage, more countries covered than Three at home (in takeaway tariffs). Just waiting for a good deal (one above is not "takeaway")

Be aware you can't turn off voicemail, keep trying but they keep saying soon... Only thing you can do is set it to 'extended absence'.

Ok so where's the joke ?
I have brilliant signal here where i live and most of the country get's good signal they are the second best for signal.
As for custom service take a look on here for Vodafone and then you see bad custom service but saying that nearly all networks have bad custom service you can't go on that now days.
If you don't need custom service like me again then there's nothing to worry about.

i didnt say anything about the signal in YOUR area. So where you jumped to that conclusion from, you need to check again
I was with Three for last 5 years until this year. Signal and internet speeds were brilliant. But it seems with the cheap contracts, and all you can eat data, their customer base got too big for their network. and dont even get me started on customer service.

@blakester I couldn't get no decent deal,nothing but lies from EE first offered me a S5 at £26.99 with 500 mins text data, then a HTC desire 626 I think it was at same price.
quickly looking on the site it was cheaper at £18 to £21 and got declined a lower in price its because I was orange customer who they are screwing over, glad I left.

@ssduk2 I can get better allowance from them after been with them for 6 months the data could increase to 2gb but just joined them
specially after EE refused to match any deals the same deal offered here on a retention deal is £31.99, they are forcing orange and T-Mobile to move onto EE and paying a premium for 4g.
So after I've cleared my final bill with them and paid virginmobile first month of the sim only I'm in better state to then look at new contracts.
but I'm holding off till Dec or Jan be better deals, in OK with my nexus 5 32gb with Android 6.0 St the moment.

How often are you people ringing customer service of mobile companies? I think I've spoken to EE once in 2 years and that was just to renegotiate my deal.

I'm already on the shockproof plan that gives you this for £12.50 so can I change my plan via the app or web to match the price?

Amazingly...no. ID Mobile dont let you change tariff. They suggested I switch from their 1month sim to another networks payg, then back to them if i wanted to get this deal and keep my number

Tesco isn't bad at 750 min/5000/2GB(4G) for £12.50 + potential family perks/loyalty bundles. Most importantly for me is that you can cap the maximum overspend to as little as 2quid more for those who exceed allowance. Have seen too many horror stories.
Heat for the deal but never heard of before.

Giffgaff are good for pay as you go. £7.50 'Goody Bag' gives you 250 mins/ 500mb (4G)/ unlimited text and free Giffgaff to Giffgaff calls . A £10 Goody Bag doubles the Mins and data. They run on O2 network.
mattyh333 to yorks123
15 Oct 15#38
I agree ! Giff gaff all the way if you don't want to use an actual network . Would never use any other virtual operator again. ID are so over protective giving any information at all ( yet they are based in South Africa

I'm on iD ...... couple of points.... cheap and you get plenty of allowance for you're money ... downside 3 don't have a 2g network which means basic phone coverage is not as comprehensive as other networks, 4g speeds are not great, customer service is pretty poor

F*** this company. They got hacked and sent an email to everyone telling us to contact our banks asap. Was only with them a week or so. Service wasn't brilliant I remember. It was the best deal at the time but i'm not voting either way.

Think I'll go with 3 as TPO made a loss of over £2 million in 2014 so might go bust.

15 Oct 15#30
I would keep well clear. First off only.the takeaway plans are free abroad, so this tariff isn't. If you get a takeaway then they don't cap your plan and even though your phone may cap it will not be accurate. I went for 2.2 gb on a 1gb contract as my phone misjudged my usage and got hit with a £60 bill. 2 weeks later and no response from customer services. Avoid like the plague.

Same here, runs circles around Giffgaff for 3G and 4G speed
Me too. I'm looking at payg as I mostly use whatsapp for calls and texts now.
Can't decide whether to go with Three or TPO.

Why not get postoffice mobile for 5quid month ( no contract whatsoever)
500mb/250mins/3000 texts
I always thought I will go over the data and 500mb won't be enough, but I have never done that...
Used to get by with 100mb a while ago, but that was really too little.

Nice to know.
Now go check Ofcom speeds across the UK.
