Yup..the number of folk round here threatening to dump EE and move to Talk Talk or to leave BT and move to Plusnet. They all use the same infrastructure and that's all managed by Openreach, which most people ought to know.

Openreach are blaming the council for not granting permission to close the road for two days and the council are saying Openreach never contacted them.

I get signal on the mobile if I drive to within range of the next mast over. I had a Google Meet yesterday which meant driving ten miles to get 4g at sufficient strength for the video call. Not optimal 🤣

Evening all 😊

So, O2 have been calling me recently on a daily basis 😩 offering me a new contract which is £47 a month with all the unlimited things and a shiny new iphone 😍 or do I say no! and stick with my sim only for £23 a month!?

...or go for for a sensible SIM only deal with another supplier for around £5 - £8 month!

I pay £7 per month on a one month contract for 50Gb. Unused data rolls over and EU roaming. I suppose it depends on how much data you actually need (and use?).

Very truce👍 Most of the time we're connected using WiFi, so a large data package is petty much irrelevant (I checked my usage and use less than 1gb a month) ... making sire I kept EU roaming was important for me

Completely agree with SIM only @geoffers - I bought my phone outright a couple years ago (Amazon warehouse deal) and pay £10 a month for my SIM which gives me plenty of data for when I am out and about and not using WIFI 👌

Thank you @geoffers @WizzyWigg @meldrewreborn

I am clearly being over charged and need to shop for some new sim only deals! Anyone recommend where I could try?

I don't require much data as when at home connected to the WIFI and if I am out it's mainly to check important messages so nothing else. 😊

Morning @Indyk_EONNext I've used Lebara for the past 2 years. I know not everyone likes Vodafone but had no problems. Rather like @geoffers never use anywhere near the limits.

@Indyk_EONNext - if you look at @meldrewreborn 's first post on this thread...

So I’m switching to ID mobile, 40GB of data for £7 on a one month rolling contract,

I'll probs move there too when my O2 SIM only contract runs out
