The People's Operator now offers 4G, and this is a cracking tariff for newbies only. For £3.99/mth you get 1,000 minutes, 1,000 texts and 1GB of data.
TPO also offers 700 minutes, unlimited texts and 2.5GB of data for £6.99/mth. Posted but voted cold
Launched in 2012, The People's Operator is a piggyback network running off Three's signal. The company has had mixed customer service feedback in the past, but it's taken steps to improve since. It will also give 10% of your monthly spend (pre-VAT) to a charity of your choice – a nice touch.
Need-to-knows 30-day rolling contract; contracts terminate at the end of the calendar month in which you give notice. Runs off the Three network. Calls to UK mobiles and landlines included. Calls to 084/087 numbers extra – see call costs. Use up your allowance and you'll have to pay 3p/MB and 10p/min. You won't be credit-checked, though it'll carry out a basic ID check.
No credit check either just id check and also low out of allowance usage! Not sure about roaming but eu will be included

I've been with Three for many a year now. Have experienced no worse a signal issue than with other providers. All subjective, I know, but I'd say the whole overall poor signal on 3 thing is a bit of a myth nowadays
this is the 700 min, ult text and 2.5gb deal but not voted hot but still some good deals coming from TPO recently!
Not sure about customer service

Does anyone have any anecdotal evidence of getting throttled data with these guys compared to Three? I'm with Three now after having a horrible experience with dead slow data at GiffGaff. A little bit worried about going back to an MVNO. On the face of it, this looks better than the PlusNet £5 deal due to the lower out of allowance data charges. PlusNet charge £1.50 each day if you run out - ouch!

this looks like a scam to me. when I click on the get deal button it take me straight to a page where they want my details, but if I look for the deal myself I can't find it
. In London they give free sim cards with minutes and data at many races and major stations

Piggy-backing off Three, that'll be a bust for many hoping for such a privilege as a signal.
