examples of how crap they are:-


1.see this link here:-

200 mins and 1000 texts if you top up by £30 a month.

click on it and see what happens! ring 'em and ask for it!

They also advertised the above in the daily star about a month ago with a link which when you clicked on it didn't work. shoddy.


2. check out the terms and conditions for "PAY AS YOU GO Free Text Trigger"

condition 11 states "The Reward is not available in conjunction with any other reward or promotion, except the Free Evening Calls Promotion and Text Extras, unless otherwise specified"

So I rang them up and asked for it - they said it wasn't possible as I have the evening calls promotion - I wrote a letter of complaint 2 months ago and got a reply stating that it was an error on the web site - despite this they are still misleading customers with incorrect terms and conditions. shoddy.

Am I missing something in the maths?
yeah you are - you get 300 texts if you top up by £10 or 600 if you top up by £20. for your £10 you get 3 times the number of texts compared to virgin with the loss of 34 mins talk time.
