A Guide to Choosing your Network [PAYG/UK]

[awelsh]

I've covered Orange well I believe, as only Racoon has a different rate to the Flat Rate, which I've pointed out. Vodafone has some little plans which aren't really great enough to focus on. I've pointed out how Virgin has Add Ons, please do read carefully.

Im on virgin mobile, its 10p a text to any other network and 5p to text virgin mobile. It doesnt matter if your on the daily bonus. Also another thing with virgin:

Great customer support, for every £100 you top up you get £10 off a new phone.

Ah well, seems I can't edit now
I'll have to have a Mod sort it.

How are Verizon and Sprint mad pplz?

No idea; but I can't accurately do one based on US providers.

[Dentafrice]

Oh.

My package for Verizon is quite nice ^_^.

We pay $128.00 a month. This has 4 phones on it.

Each phone gets 700 minutes per phone, per month, out of network (non verizon customers)

Each phone gets UNLIMITED IN network calls (verizon customers)

Each phone gets UNLIMITED text messaging (in and out of network) as well as UNLIMITED picture and video messaging

The only thing we don't have is the DATA plan.

[hamheyelliot]

You pay $128?
Which 4 phones do you all have then?

We don't even get Family Plans =/ But who the hell cares.

What about these plans?

Orange
Just talk
Classic PAYG
WePay

Vodafone
PAYG Original
All Calls
Smartstep
Surestep

All still widely available and used, just not publicised

All the information is correct prior to the official providers networks, Virgin has given me the information stated.

So they told you about Vodafone, Yeah ok Did they tell you they are not a proper network, they piggyback off T-Mobiles network? They are a vitual network.

Do you know Asda and Tesco's network piggyback off o2?

[hamheyelliot]

JustTalk is the Flat Rate on Orange
Classic PAYG is nowhere to be found :S
WePay is on the Three Network, and New Customers can't use it, so :I
All those Vodafone Tariffs aren't any good either.. They're not for new customers.

Also, I do know about these 'piggybacks'; the correct name for them is an 'MVNO'.
This makes them none less a network.
