Guess I should have listened to the top comment about poor service.
1. They lost the first sim in the post
2. Replacement sim wasn't sent
3. Next replacement sim arrived but couldn't be activated as systems offline. Told to call back next day.
4. Following day system still offline.
5. Asked to speak to manager as 12 days after placing order I have been charged but cannot use sim. They put the phone down!

Look elsewhere guys, these monkeys will waste your time!

COLD!
Three are doing 30GB for £18

I saw this before and its a pretty sweet deal if you aren't a speed freak. I hear that VM are restricted to 25mbs download speed. I haven't the foggiest if this is actually true and nor if upload speeds are reduced compared to EE either. To be fair, it's not a deal breaker if that is the case. More of a deal breaker for me is potentially affected services in congested areas. EE will have priority if masts are under heavy load. This will be a frequent occurrence over in London and other major cities.

I had a deal with EE for £18.90 a month for 20GB 4G data and that was pretty decent. Obviously not 90p cheaper like this deal though.

Is it Virmin that offers certain free SM connection that does not effect your data use , looking for a sim around £10 a month with 4gb data minimum for my son

I wanted to do the £12 deal for 8GB/month. It mentioned 2GB (the old deal). Has anyone gone ahead with these deals?

I always think it's odd they offer unlimited/ lots of data but pretty much all networks charge to send a mms picture message (unless you use an app like WhatsApp). Surely datas data?

Word of caution, their data roaming is a shambles and doesn't work in a lots of Europe. Also their customer service is the Philippines is disgusting. They are treading a thin line at the moment. In this instance you pay for what you get. My experience if them is pure cr** and soon leaving I'd rather pay more money and have a proper mobile company whom supply roaming and a quality customer support service .

I've been with Three since day one, purely for their unintended data, but I'm sick of them now and want to try someone else. Do VM offer discounts for home BB customers?

Can't see why this is a good deal with three are offering 30gb data simo plan at £16??

If you are on ee sim only... And due a renewal next month... Call and they will beat this price. Need to specifically mention this deal. Gl.

I've been looking at sim only deals for the past few months with great interest as I want to change mine & have a new mobile. I need a change from my LG G4. I've been with Tesco Mobile (runs on O2) since 2012 & I'm in the process of switching to Plusnet (formerly LIFE runs on EE). Never had any issues with them just going for a cheaper sim only deal but better overall package. The deal is exclusively on Uswitch (or so it claims on their website). It's a 30 day rolling sim with unlimited minutes, unlimited texts & 5GB data for £10 a month. The choice of 30 day rolling sim options is quite limited compared to 12 month sim only deals but I thought it was good enough for me. The Tesco rep sounded reluctant to give me my pac but after trying to "match" the deal after speaking with his manager (also known as putting you on hold for a moment then coming back with a counter offer) he did so.

I have a good reception in my local area with O2, EE & Vodafone but not so much with 3. I've read some of the Plusnet Mobile reviews on Trustpilot which is somewhat unsettling & doesn't make for happy reading but I'll give them a chance first.

Hmm, I'm sure three offers 30gb for £20 unlt mins and texts

This is a bit of a winner hotukdeals.com/dea…153

100gb, ul mind & texts with 3 mobile for just £7 more. Or for an equivalent deal, 30gb, ul mind & texts for £18pm.

This deal is good if your buying the Note 8 Handset rather than paying monthly on the Note And Sim

Whats wrong with their customer services? ive never had an issue with them yet and been with them for 8 months

Why does one of largest Broadband provider need to piggyback on EE. Why can't they create their own mobile network.

For anyone who cares, I work in retentions for Vodafone and can offer 20GB for £20 with unlimited minutes/texts and 12 months entertainment . (Existing Vodafone customers only).

If interested send me a message I'll get a colleague to get in contact.

I'm on the same deal for £5/month. I tether just fine.

Decent deal. I almost moved to Virgin but they said they do not offer tethering on their sim only plans.

(still voted hot btw!)

I've always had a great experience of their customer service

I'm already with them and have tried TWICE in the past to upgrade by phone AND through my online account.
Phone said it would 'refresh' to new tariff at next refresh date, both times it didn't.
Tried through online account (even just 2 minutes ago) and got the message 'Oops, something went wrong'.........
I get the feeling they don't want people's money / business.........

So does plusnet offer tethering also?

Does this work if you're an existing Virgin Mobile customer?

EE

Their customer service is awful - be careful..

Shame ive got 10 months left my contract

This is a cracking deal. Paying £9 for 5GB with VM. Not sure whether to go for this or wait for a Voda or EE deal with cashback for cheaper.

Decisions, decisions...

Good deal.

On same deal but monthly rolling contract for 15 a month. Tether all the time through phone to tablet and other phone. Not a problem, never had warning from them. Customer service has been excellent when I have rung to change billing date and ask about using abroad.

Absolutely terrible customer services :disappointed:

Virgin Broadband customers only? Otherwise its £24

Yeah, the rep told me tethering is not allowed but people do it. But I’d rather have piece of mind. However, I’m sure they’ll just allow it soon enough

The 8GB plans at just £12 looks quite good too?

I'm on the same deal for £15 and I tether too, albeit with an iPhone not a laptop.
