Tesco Mobile

Anyone here use Tesco Mobile? I have just bought a used iPhone 4 to replace my old phone that's about 6yrs old. I don't want a 12 month contract but notice they do monthly contracts with a plan that suits my needs for about £10 a month.

For that I get 250 mins talk time, 5000 texts and 500mb data.

Is this a good deal bearing in mind I am a very light user and doubt I would need more.

Thanks

Re: Tesco Mobile

My mother is with them and they're pretty good. They use the O2 network.

Re: Tesco Mobile

If you're a very light user PAYG may be cheaper than any form of contract.

Re: Tesco Mobile

Tesco Mobile performs better than GiffGaff. And you get free 4G (not that that matters, without a 4G phone)

Re: Tesco Mobile

Giff gaff are trailing 4G anyway and will have it a couple of months.

So Tesco on O2 performs better than Giffgaff on O2 ?

Re: Tesco Mobile

GiffGaff has 4G, it's just overpriced

And yes, that's what I said.

Limited, existing customers only trial pricing.

The normal pricing:
With 4G: £12 a month, 2GB data
Without 4G: £12 a month, unlimited data.

And that's on a network that's already widely known for having speed and capacity problems.

Oh well the block does not work I can still see and reply to you and any quotes posted you can still read. Plus I doubt you have blocked me you seem like the type who would want to know what is said

---------- Post added at 22:13 ---------- Previous post was at 22:04 ----------

Tesco only beat Giffgaf if you take a 12 month contract @ the £10 range, The future Giffgaff charges are £10 same as Tesco for £12 quid you get 250 mins unlimited texts and 2 GB of data for £15 you get 500 mins unlimited texts and 2 GB of data

Tesco's rolling month have more minutes less data untill the £17.50 which unless you chat a hell of a lot is almost all you can eat.

Looking the best Tariff is £15 on Tesco if you take the £12.50 and add a gig of data but it is a contract giffgaff is not a contract although its half a gig lighter than giffgaff but 250 mins more

Also if you go over your limit on Tesco the call charges appear to be a hell of a lot higher

Tesco 25p per min to mobiles etc Giff gaff 10p Tesco Text 10p Giffgaff 6p. Do Tesco do free Tesco to Tesco like Giffgaff does?
