This plus a £120 well reviewed Chinese phone are making me feel like a fool for paying £35 a month for 2 years for an s6!!!
Apparently (according to a customer services rep) some great 4g deals for new customers due out at the end of the month for new customers.

3G? Really?
Spose you get what you pay for.

Depends what you need. I found this deal for my mum as the most data intensive thing she does is WhatsApp.

EE 3G is really good, you can get over 20mbps if you live in good masts. Plus that doesn't matter because after 6 monthly payments on life mobile, you can upgrade to 4G :smiley:

Totally agree. Been doing that for past 4 years. I can also change/upgrade my handset for another £120 annually with the latest models and still be quids in! The brand snobs are really jealous now.(and stuck to a mediocre data plan).
Life mobile are OK for what they offer with minimum fuss and call centre is more knowledgeable than the mainstream gougers.

What do mean you can upgrade to 4g on life mobile after 6 months?

After 6 Monthly Payments on your 30 Day Contract, you can call them to upgrade you to a 4G variant of the Network

Interesting. I was looking at Three deals but their 4G coverage around here is nothing compared to EE's. My only concern is - do Life customers get as good a service as EE customers?

No, they don't. I used Life Mobile for six months and their data went from being really great to hardly ever working in north Hampshire. I suspect that it's being throttled, and there were a lot of signal issues when an EE sim in the same place was fine.

4g never comes, many promises I had before I gave up

4G is available once you've qualified for the upgrade. I'm on their 4G plan and it's solid so far.

I was offered 4g when I asked for an extra sim a couple of weeks ago on top of 2 sims I already have, I declined and got the 1.5gb (3G) data 1000 min plus 5000 text plan for £4.50 pm

I'm on that plan and I pay £5.95 where is it available for £4.50 as I'd rather be paying that

4g is coming as is a name change they will be plusnet mobile at the end of the month.
Been on their £4.95 a month tariff for a while now, brilliant value.

technically no, there are more minutes, texts and data in the 4G than their current website packages but saying that no one ever paid the Life websites prices always cheaper through the brokers like this deal.

the Three deal of 4GB uld mins for for £9 seems better its also 4G and once you recive the sim, you can upgrade to 8GB for £12 a month, add in cashback and fact its 4G its a better deal, only downside is 12 Months contract

I've been with life for over 6 months, I currently pay £5.95 each pm for 2 sims, the third one was discounted by 20% (£4.50) when I requested an extra sim a week or so ago.
I already have plusnet bb and phone line, so there may be further discounts down the line

Looking at the rest of the Plusnet packages, they are very, very average, compared to the current Life Mobile tariffs!
I see that there's no mention of discounts for existing Plusnet customers, but part of me tells me that if I want to get a decent Life Mobile tariff, I'd better do it right now, rather than wait for the allowances to drop due to Plusnet's greed!

How much data are plusnet offering with the £10 offer?
Thar to ganon
14 Nov 16#34

Ordered one yesterday. I'm with vectone at the moment. Been good but looking for more data for a few quid more. Was paying £10 pay and go for 3gb data, 3000mins and 3000 texts. Was really good.
Giving this company a go and see how good they are.

I'm on the Life 4g deal 500mb for £4.95 a month prices seem very similar to Plusnet but all the same company really.

Im with LIFE and have this exact deal for 12 a month. cold from me! PS HURRRY before it changes to PLUSNET MOBILE AS THEIR NEW DEALS LOOK PANTS!

So can we existing users get the £10 offer?

15 Nov 16#39
Plusnet usually are a easy company to get discounts from, I've had my broadband with them for a few years now and I've never paid full price, currently pay £2 pm for unlimited.
Ive read existing bb customers get double data, so 1gb 4g for £5pm and 2gb 4g for £7.50, I presume they will let you have the £10pm deal as well
swfarrington to matlock67

Agreed re Plusnet. I was with them for BB for 13 years until this summer. Only reason I left them is that I wanted Fibre and the BT cabinet I'm connected to is in the 'no hope of getting Fibre in the next decade' category. A PITA as all my neighbours are attached to a different cabinet which offers Fibre.
I've pre-registered with them, see what it's like. I can't see any details on the page advising if they will allow tethering though. Not something I use much but useful to have on those occasions when the tablet is the better option.

I'm tied in to a cheap fibre deal with Plusnet until July 17. Hoping for a good deal for my two Life SIM's.
Do you have a link for this double data deal for existing customers?

I'm the same, I cannot get fibre, only box in the area without it, I live about 100 yards from the exchange so get 22mb+ on adsl
