I don't think so. BT bought plusnet years ago. BT recently bought EE who owned life. It made sense to change the name to plusnet....

Maybe EE will now be renamed BT Genie

Id mobile is 1gb data, 5000sms, 250mins for £5/M

https://www.idmobile.co.uk/shop/plans/sim-only-deals

My friends had no issue with them for the past 3 or so months.

Original Direct link with Uswitch, but the above link is here
https://www.plus.net/mobile/deals/1gb/double-data/uswitch

Also the possibility of TopCashback too (not sure tbh)

I got a great deal two months back. Unlimited texts and calls, 6 GB Internet for £12.95 a month. One month rolling.

No TCB with uswitch double to 1GB as TCB is for 500MB data £5pm only. Quidco was offering £6 cashback compared to £3.3 TCB but not sure if still available

Dug out a non Uswtich link, and the URL also appears to still be plusnetrather than uswitch, so there is a chance it will still work.

Decent enough, this deal was for plusnet customers only but now seems to be for anyone (until the promotion ends)

the id mobile contract uses 3 instead of EE, and it doesnt allow tethering
does look even better for haggling existing provider though

Tesco allows Tethering, what other companies allow it ?

Isn't there a current promotion with 2gb unlimited mins and text for 7.50? Would assume that might be a bit better.

can you keep your current number with this deal?

meh, they all allow tethering if you use pdanet+, allows tethering hidden.

I have signed up twice with PlusNet, one through uswitch and the other as a PlusNet BB (mates rate), the TCB came through on the latter and not the former. Because I have already signed up once as PlusNet mobile I cannot use Quidco as it was for new customers signing on. Also for those interested, you may have read about PlusNet problems but they seems to have overcome those initial setbacks. I have been on twice to reduce the smart cap for both sims and port over the old numbers and were both were done seamlessly. The port does take about 2 days. Good luck

Not according to virgin themselves, checked with them 2 days ago and there is lots of complaints on another thread because of it.

Couple of comments about plus nets customer service, we went with them when they were with life, customer service was excellent, could speak with someone very quickly couple of minutes and they tried to fix issues quickly. Took out three sims and two took up to five days to port numbers across they were very helpful and gave account credit for the delays. Signal was hopelsss so left and recently went back to them with their 4g, but the sim didn't arrive in time to move from my existing supplier. It took 45 minutes to get through to department 1, they then had to put me through to another one another 45 minutes and that after having to call them on a couple of other occasions to find out where the sim was with similar delays. The guy tried to offer credit to get me to stay but the time wasted that was it.

I'm with Plusnet at home and was going to move my mobile over too but so many comments about length of time moving your number over, confusion as to what numbers are free fone plus if you send more than 3 texts to a number it then becomes an MMS and your charged for any further texts.
So I've held of for the moment.

Plusnet horrible customer service

A pity they discontinued the old Life tariffs.

Plusnet took over LifeMobile.

Got that deal last month (uSwitch ) and so far so good - no problem with activation, 4G speeds ok, porting number ultra simple ( sending PAC in text ) and done in 2 days. Web-panel quite "web 2.0ish" but very easy to read and navigate. The only downside is international calls charges - after short 6 min new year call to destination in Europe got a warning text about my £10 cap being used in 80% - that's of course my own oversight but nerveless still quite expensive.

Or £4 if you don't use much data and can cope with 250mb. A lot of the elder generation in my family are on this network and have had no problems for the past two years

I did a port request on Boxing day so far my old number has been disconnected but not ported to Plus.net mobile

​I use my phone tethered to a laptop when away with work on a daily basis. No issues at all. I'm with Virgin Media

Old LIFE MOBILE DEALS WERE BETTER!

ty

Great service so far. I'm still on an old Life tariff.

Voted cold.

Customer service since BT (who own EE / Life Mobile / PlusNet) booted Life Mobile over to their PlusNet brand at the end of 2016 has been very poor.

I've spent the past few weeks banging my head against a wall with them, being told outright lies, and once a port to them is complete I'll be moving two numbers I have with them away to a BT Family plan. Yes the 'BT Group' will still have my money but I'll get better service.

Oh dear ! I've just emailed the CEO of the company [email protected] hopefully that'll do the trick !

I been with Life mobile over the year, the difference I have noticed that SIM only plans is better off elsewhere than Plusnet mobile, example I paid recently bill for my mrs usage £12 as she used up all the data 4GB + cap buffer. The BT mobile has better plan for £16 p/m (as I am BT broadband user)

I am still on this one

Thinking switching to Three mobile so I can feel at home.

Went for the 2gb deal for £7.50. How long does it take to get a confirm email? Still waiting after 24hrs.

took one day to port. no problems. turned the phone on and off a couple of times as instructed.

I have got it now - I must have got stuck at some manual operator check.

My port to lifemobile took a day. Then switched to the 4G lifemobile and they sent new sim. Sim swap took 3 hours.

what apn settings have you guys got on your mobiles, please list them here ta. Both Pn/EE saying problems in my postcode Liverpool with local mast, call/text seems ok just no Data, also showing connected to tmobile 3g!;

Deal expired this morning :disappointed:
Customer service said new deals will come this Wednesday. No information about the new deals.
