So far spot on. They answer within seconds so no waiting on hold for ages. Every time I've called they've sorted whatever I've called about there and then.

I can't fault them at all.

Question for long standing customers.

Since this is a 30 day contract when Life mobile have changed the cost of the monthly tariff or the number of included minutes/data are you still paying/getting the old plan or do they automatically move you/change minutes/data to the new plan ?

My number got ported to Life to today and so far very happy. Every time I rang customer service they picked up within 1 ring and new what they were doing.

When I rang ID mobile they seemed clueless on the phone.

So if your an existing member you can't just upgrade to double minutes with the same cost.

aty - you'll stick with whichever plan you signed up with! :smiley:

+1 - I opted for the £5.95 deal via USwitch - will be getting 1K of Calls, 5K of Texts and 1GB of Data; more than enough for me and will allow me to move away from Vodafone who are charging me far to much.

glad everyones took advantage of this deal! this hit main page! :wink: -op

​thanks for the info, I managed to get the contract in the end :smile: its been hard opening a contract for a while now so this was a good post :smiley:

Sod's law - just read about this AFTER I applied for it online! :disappointed: I'm unemployed so I'm hoping this will go through - just have to wait for Vodafone to provide me with the PAC, so I can get away from their increasingly expensive network.

do they perform credit checks?

The uswitch deals are no good now just had a look might as well just go on the life mobile site now still cheap with plenty of minutes.

Thats brill, thank you! I need to keep an eye on a 14 year old girl lol x

Why are people obsessed with customer service, think I've phoned my mobile operators twice in last 10 years. Who do you need to phone them up all the time?

These SIM cards come with a £5 cap already in place. A quick call can reduce that to £1.

Thinking of this for my daughter. Does anyone know if usage can be capped please? X

​i would rate them a no. 1 customer service in the UK. I left them because of 3G, but was sad leaving them and rang customer service to say 'thank you' for being very kind and helpful and 'sorry' for leaving them.

I hardly use any minutes or text, around 200 mins and 50 text but use 2GB a month: can anyone reccomend my best option?
thank you

what network does life mobile use?

yes, prices are big higher since I joined them but still one of the best at the moment. I used uswitch offer (£6) about 5 weeks ago. so far so good. customer service is spot on probably because not so many customers so no waiting when you phone them. they work on EE network but only o 3G. in my area (Belfast) I have H+ and speed about 15-20 mb down and 2-3 up. it's much better than what I had in giffgaff 4G (2-3 up and down). I have transfered my number with one phone call and waited 24 h. what else. there is no dedicated app or live chat but online you can check your allowance, bills, statements etc. after two years struggle with GG I'm finally happy.

Thanks OP, I've gone for the 5.95 uswitch tariff. Was gonna get I'd mobile but hear a lot of negative about their customer service.

They are great, the coverage is the same as EE and their customer service is high up there.

Beware if you are porting a number from EE or an EE backed network (like the Post Office).

This is their one major failing. I was without a mobile service for 6 days and without mobile internet for 18 days. They do state that the service may be interrupted but come on...

I was heavily compensated though. 3 months free line rental (£18) and a further £18 credited into my bank account.

Number porting from other networks is reportedly much less hassle but if I were to have my time again I would have just signed up and obtained a new number.

You just change the tariff number (on the Life web address) when you buy any sim card.
The 5.95 deal is tariff 100

tpo have some nice deals atm

3G?

which ones? Edge, HSPA, HSPA+?

h+ have got to15mbs on weekend. get 2mbs at work at lunch when giffgaff gave me 0.1 if lucky. i got broadnbandchoices deal 6gb for 13.45 seems better than above?

Is this 4G?

lol, there logo is not inspired by eBay..... :smirk:

Still looks much better than GiffGaff's current goodybags.

click the life mobile and will come up on the top first one

What's their coverage like?

lol, I know. The other guy was saying that the uswitch price was the same as direct, and I was asking him to prove it.

You need to go via uSwitch:

Where on the Life Mobile is the £5.95 deal?

its on both websites so no cheaper in fact you get more mins on life.

Ah, it seems they are directly owned by EE, so there should be no problems. I only need a few texts a day and a few hundred mb data a month so the mainstream plans are too expensive. Of the low costs suppliers, I've tried the Post Office (if you run out of credit you can't top up via your mobile! and the website payments was always down) and Asda (complete ****) and someone else I can't remember but obviously weren't that good either!

This seems like a great deal with Life Mobile via uswitch, too.

So far spot on. They answer within seconds so no waiting on hold for ages. Every time I've called they've sorted whatever I've called about there and then.

I can't fault them at all.

Wow. They've upped their prices a lot since I joined last month!
