ID are an awful company to deal with

Went on live chat and swapped the girlfriend over.
I was getting bored of her anyway so looking forward to the replacement, especially with double of everything.

ID Mobile don't offer thethering and only 250 mins! So thats not a reason not to post this deal is it!

You're welcome not everyone wants thousands of minutes and text i have unlimited texts and i've rarely got over 200 in any one given month! I've only gone over 500 mins once in two years!

Should read 500 mins

Bumhats. Only recently signed up to the previous offer and this is better. Hmmmmpphhh.

ID are an awful company to deal with

I believe they also use the 3 network which is, unfortunately, a deal breaker in many areas.

I just moved from the £5.95 switch deal to this one. I am a low user and it's perfect for me. Thank you OP

I'd echo that!

Quidco are offering £7.50 cashback on this as well. Just ordered

Cold - how is this a deal? been around for ages.

A month or so ago there was a bunch of high data month to month deals, anyone know where I could find something like that again?. I was out of the country at the time :disappointed:

And if you need more mins/data/texts (still on Plusnet) you can always go for the Uswitch-exclusive offer of £7.50/m that gets you 1000mins/Unlimted txts/2Gb data: https://www.uswitch.com/mobiles/compare/sim_only_deals/

Who's protective of their post now? :smirk:

We live in the age of the consumer, I should be able to eat it. Just gotta find it....haha

EE, BT, PLUSNET all are same company in different name thats all so go for the cheap 1

Thanks OP, I've just called them to change from an old Life Mobile plan to this much better one for an increase of 5p per month. Nice one :smiley:

With plusnet was previously on 4gb for £10 pm. Couple of days ago they were offering 5gb for £10 pm. They allowed me to switch to this no problem, smug

Q. I can't see anything about keeping my old number, getting PAC code from current provider etc?
Anybody know anything about this please

I'm with them and kept me same number

Thanks for the info, I'll see if my current provider will match but I doubt it because it's half price.

1500 mins, unlimited texts and 5gb data for £10

I am impressed with Plusnet Customer service

Been with plusnet for a good few months now. I lost my network 2 weeks ago and when I used my phone(when the signal returned) it was showing as a completely different number on the phone I was calling ? . The network came back, but now I cant get 4G anymore. Rang CS and went through the APN settings but still no 4G . Bit annoyed to be honest as it was great beforehand, but im tempted to get this for my boy.Heat.

Rang them up today after seeing the post above
Thank you for changing your plan.

Your new plan now looks like this:

I rang this number : 0800 328 4688

But you could Try this number might get a better reply ?
Sales team on 0800 0791133

Ring them to find out you have nothing to loose they can only say No.

They have just switched me onto this plan (from the 4GB one with UNL minutes and UNL test for £10) very quickly and efficiently using their online chat.

Great deal thanks op. Give it a check tomorrow.

Can I order this sim/offer and then keep it for a couple of weeks before activating it? Or does it need to be activated within a couple of days?
*edit* forget that, it says pay first month up front.

Thanks but I was thinking more along the lines of 25-30gb

Won't let me order, keeps crashing at the card payment screen :disappointed:

Either 2G, 3G or 4G coverage of 99.63% of the UK population as at 30 September 2016. Based on EE data.
This isn't very reassuring to be honest, as most of the coverage could be 2G (unusuably slow) or 3G (very slow). 4G on its own should be 95% coverage of the UK by now but for one of the so-called richest nations on earth, we are terribly backwards with our general internet infrastructure.

I've got a quidco account but how do i use it? Should i buy it on plusnet first? Thanks guys.

Go to your Quidco account, find the Plusnet Mobile page:-

https://www.quidco.com/plusnet-mobile/?st=plusnet%20mob&tr=11550&fn=home&fr=top&si=58f94102f3995&sv=4-MS

(Log into your account obviously)

Then click on the £5 sim option that shows £7.50 cash back, and that will take you to the Plusnet site & order it..

So they let you downgrade? Can I ask which option you chose in chat? Ie Upgrade, sales, support etc. as I tried to change to the 5Gb unlimited 1500 min £10 deal via on line chat last night and they told me to ring them. I only ask as I haven't had much success over the phone.

BT do a similar deal if you have their broadband. I've been on this deal for the past 2 years. I'm now with Plusnet after I switched to their infinity package. The only difference is with Plusnet if you go over your allowance you get charged £1.50 per day. So make sure you don't go over.

Anyone managed to order this yet as I still can't get past the card payment screen. BT's deal is 400 mins and 500gb by the way.

I just spoke with EE retentions about this deal and they offered my 4GB double speed 4G, U/L mins and texts and full EU usage, inc data, for £9.99/mth.
It was on their MAX plan, whatever that is. Seeing as I go abroad a lot, and have EE home broadband that gives me an extra 5GB mobile data for free, I thought this was good enough for me.

Good deal! Looking at the upgrade offers the nearest I can see are £13 or £15 over 12 months.

Let the one with the most deserved heat win

Heat but was tempted to press cold on the basis it's the 1st time I have seen 4g and not 4G in any title deal :innocent:

That does make me laugh jumpman :wink: i'm not at war and never will be! Good day to you sir

are you with Halifax? I keep getting the same thing...an error when I 've entered in all details!

Nope, not Halifax. I tried 2 different credit cards too and still no luck.Used live chat and she said clear cookies so tried that as well and still no joy! I ended up booting up an old laptop and used that and it went through first time.

And cheers OP - heat added. FWIW, the id deal just doesn't have enough minutes talktime for a PHONE. :smiley: And cheers for the quidco headsup too. :smiley:

This is a 30 day contract, does that mean i can keep it going for as long as a i want?

what were u getting for 4.95 on old life plan? thought LIFE WERE MUCH MORE COMPETITIVE

i get unlimited mins texts and 4gb 4g data with these...:smile:

that's a failed credit check right there :wink:

"Plusnet, we'll do you proud ..... "

:-)

Nice one!.

Yours is not under £6 though right? (and I'm assuming your also referring to Plusnet too like?), or ..... thanx :-)

Ouch!.

Lol

Far worse deal with deservedly less heat. So the complete opposite to what you've stated....

LOL :smiley: It's pretty unlikely to be honest. :smiley:

You can keep it for as long as you want. Because it's not a 12/18 month contract, you could hand your 30 day notice in at any time & leave

I've also been lucky. I think I keep getting previously Life Mobile employees.... they were superb

They can also say yes :-)

still getting the £1 deal and £5.95 for 1.5GB deal

sshhhhh

Careful with these deals guys! If they structure the plan so that they are giving you 'free' stuff, such as doubling your data, be very careful that the 'free' part isn't time limited. For example, TalkTalk gave us very low priced sims with very low data etc but with very very high additions, on a 30 day plan. After 12 months the additions were removed (without them telling us) and the price shot up!

Dumped GiffGaff and gone with this.

Cracking deal, although did take an hour to sort it all out (didn't recognise I'm a plusnet broadband customer, doesn't make any difference to anything, couldn't remember wife's giffgaff logon details, spent 30 minutes trying to find out how to cancel giffgaff contract).

I've tried work and personal laptop no joy yet, I'll try another browser on personal when i get home, can't get anything except chrome to work on this one.

I've thrown out the welcome pack - does anyone know what/who I text to get a port going?

https://www.plus.net/help/mobile/
Try that mate

I ordered one for my son last month and activated it a couple of days ago without any issues

I'm not sure that that was what the person Postings at comment was asking?, lol.

I think they were querying about keeping the SIM Card in leu for a few day first, BEFORE then having to cash out and pay for noted Rolling Contract fee, etc?.

They then obviously realised that that probably wasn't to be the case again or whatever?. :-)

A few people above, have already commented on that Deal ...

And not all were good either?, I personally don't have either? (do wouldn't know either way?). :-)

Hahahaha that's actually really funny considering the deal you refer to had received it's full heat allocation and this was still in the early stages so to compare them at that point was incredibly foolish. Yes the opinion of the masses does seem to conflict your own somewhat strange views. It's ok though I must be too dull to comprehend your backwards logic.

Read your comments, can't understand most of it. I see your name on so many posts and you rarely make any sense at all.
Are you having some kind of nervous breakdown?

"Prices, content and terms may change at any time during your contract. We'll tell you about important changes in advance, and if a change is detrimental you'll be able to end your contract without any fees."

Might they change it back to normal after a few months?

Well its only 30 days notice so just change! There will always be some sort of deal available. Considering the £1 month deal is going a year after it started I wouldn't really worry about it.

Am I reading their pricing right £1 a minute to call Spain from U.K and 0.04 pence to call U.K from Spain

Yep, just called again and they were able to change it. I think my first call went through to a offshore call centre as they were busy, but this time spoke to someone in the UK.

*Cold* - I agree this is a bad deal. I currently have this with them.

1000 minutes (i.e. double this offer)
5000 texts (i.e. 5 x this offer)
1.5gb 4g (i.e. 50% more than this offer).

Yet, it costs me only 5.95 per month. An extra 95p, for far far more.
It isn't available right now, but no doubt they will be back.

Is your deal 3G or 4G ??

I hit Like instead of Reply lol
Anyway , it all depends whether you are a low user or not. I had the same £5.95 deal but I never used the allowance so why should I pay more for something that I don't use nor need... Plus now I have 4g :-)

I did and they said Yes :smiley:

I am on Three with only 500m 100txt and no data for £5 so this really is a deal.... I hardly use my 500m and like you(OP) I have only gone over few times in the last 6yrs since I agreed a retainer with them. Similar with txt only gone over at one new yrs eve sending all a HNY and never noticed my limit(no not drunk I don't drink) but just excited.... never again once I got the bill I just send all an email now :smiley:....

anyhow my tariff is for my life or until Three's or if they change there T&C's and as I don't need internet out of home/work I will not leave Three yet but if I needed it this would be a cracking deal.....

Qudico £7.50 CB making it just £4.37/mth or TCB £3 but make sure you go through the respective CB site not click on Get deal first....

Went on live chat and swapped my uncle over as he was on the 250 mins one.

Thanks OP!

I'm going to need to cancel my giffgaff account, how did you do it?

And when it is, we can switch to it. And as said above, why pay for something you are not using anyway (which I won't)
I used to have an unlimited data deal for £16 a month 2/3 years ago but I use 300mb a month on average so no point in paying for it.

What's the £1 deal?

"Plusnet Mobile double everything, 500 mins, 1,000 texts and 1gb 4g data great for low users - £5.00 Month"

4G, as per the OP's Deal Title ...

:-)

Good deal thanks for posting

yep me too got a £6 sim from them for 1500 min 1GB. Nothing can beat that minutes lol

£9 4GB, UNL MIN on Three

Went on live chat and swapped the girlfriend over.
I was getting bored of her anyway so looking forward to the replacement, especially with double of everything.

Hot deal if you don't need that amount. I'm currently surviving on 250mins & 250Mb data!

Why buy a 7 seater car if its just me & the girlfriend.

12 month contract?

Request your PAC code.

There doesn't seem any other way to cancel or contact them.

SIM arrived quick - ordered yesterday lunch time, came in this mornings post!

Don't you hate when someone deletes out their comments when they have already been quoted

There are so many better deals currently with'3'

Of course your deal is for life.. they're giving you relatively nothing!

Was she 4G?

took out the £5.00 for 1GB deal then asked Tesco mobile for PAC and got £5 for 500mb (inc 250mb loyalty deal) which with tesco xtra discount of £3.00 and 200mb gets me 700MB for £2.00.

Anyone else getting Plusnet Error 500 page after Payment when going via the Quidco link? Have tried on numerous devices and cleared cookies/cache etc. Plusnet say they are not aware of any issues from their side...

Yeh, I kept getting that but it worked o.k when I used an old laptop. Someone on another thread about another plusnet sim had issues too.

Same issue here

This deal

http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lifemobile-1-month-2000-minutes-5000-texts-1-gb-data-1-00-2456652

So no longer available, and in fact Life Mobile themselves no longer seem to exist (redirects to Plusnet).

how do you apply for more than one sim? i need 5 and would prefer them all to start at the same time

Ask an agent :smiley:

You can request a pac somewhere on there website just ask on the forum, someone will reply in about 2 minutes :smiley:

Looks like EE will offer a similar deal but on a 12 month contract. EE retentions gave 1000 mins, unlimited txt, 1GB data for £4.99.

4G, what a joke! Just switched from the Life 3G plan to this and the speed, sitting at my desk in the same position has gone from constant 15Mbps with 3G down to 5-10 Mbps with 4G! At home I now can't even get H+; I'm down to 2G signal even though "4G is excellent and 3G very good" according to the Plusnet chap.

I am going to see if I can go back......

On my phone in Settings->Connections->More networks->Mobile networks->Network mode I can select between these mobile network options -
LTE/WCDMA/GSM (4G/3G/2G)
WCDMA/GSM (3G/2G)
WCDMA only (3G only)
GSM only (2G only)

Try WCDMA only to see if you pick it up

I have tried all and gone back to auto selection; at home it was going through E, H, H+ and for an instant 4G (when I held it up to a window). When you have only occasionally one bar signal it doesn't help too much. Might check out your suggestion, though. Thanks.

Good suggestion; now hitting 17-20 Mbps here at work. have to see if it improves things at home.

YAY! I ACTUALLY HELPED!! :laughing::smile::wink:

Yes, probably more than their tech support would have!

Madness; just used 0.5Gb doing speed tests!

Even worse, I have been charged for data as they have not set things up correctly at their end. Everyone should check their allowance is correct.

Has anyone on the old Life deal £5-95 1000 mins 5000 texts 1.5gb on 3g upgraded to 4g at no cost,I rang and got 2 new sims sent out but when i rang to register them they said no you'll have to upgrade to another deal to get 4g.

Just got around to sticking this sim in and logging into my account for the first time and I notice it says 2000 texts. Not that it matters as I'd never use 1000 but might be worth looking at your own accounts.

and I guess they don't take the first DD as the first month is upfront by CC??

Have tried 3 times to order and just keep getting the 500 error (and the bloke holding his hands up) at the very final stage. Nothing wrong with my card details or anything and now I am worried that each time that I have ordered they will have done a credit check.

Thanks for nothing Plusnet! Great way to alienate customers.

I don't understand. Why did you order new SIM's? Did they make you believe you could upgrade to 4G but still pay £5.95?

Yes, I and a few others have had this problem. I had to use a different laptop to get it to work in the end. Does it matter if they keep doing credit checks then? If it helps, nothing seemed to happen until I got it to actually work.

It's never good to have multiple credit checks in a short space of time on your credit file (each stays on 12 months) because it makes you look desperate for credit!

And a credit check is far more detrimental than a soft search for someone wanting to get a mortgage/loan/cheap credit card in the near future. Thankfully none of that applies to me but I'd be really annoyed if trying to get a cheap sim messed up a future credit application.

By taking your date of birth and time at current address they are DEFINITELY doing a credit check. And I am worried that they have done one each time I've had to resubmit because of their naff 500 error.

After 3 tries I gave up and won't be trying again.

Right, I see - thanks. I'm also not in any desperate need for credit so it shouldn't affect me either but it's not good that this is going on.

No i was told by someone on here that they had been upgraded to 4g on the £5-95 plan.I rang Plusnet and was told yes but we have to send new sims to get the 4g.When i got the new sims i rang to activate them and was told sorry you'll have to move to a higher price to get 4g.Anyway i upgraded yesterday to the £8 4g deal and i am waiting for new sims to come.

Has the "double everything" ended? Now showing 250 mins.

Expired mate

Cheers, a pity I didn't need it earlier.
