This afternoon I was on the phone for 90 minutes to Virgin Mobile, talking to 4 different people but I got what I wanted in the end.
It seems at 4pm this afternoon if you put
http://store.virginmedia.com/virgin-...nthly-sim.html into your phone you were given cheaper prices than putting exactly the same address into your computer. The first three phone people would not accept this and in the end told me to ring 08001 831150.
I was put through to a charming gentleman in Manila and while his computer loaded he quizzed me about UK weather. He immediately grasped the problem. I have 3 mobile accounts. My own is on a 6 month half price deal so I am not changing that at present as I would lose the discount. The other two I have changed to 2Gb 4G 30 day contracts, one for 10 pounds a month and the second for some inexplicable reason 9 pounds.
As the price is 12 pounds when the website is loaded onto a computer I am happy, especially as in the conditions he had to read out it does include 0845 and 0870 numbers
