It will be interesting at contract renewal time

I have both Vodafone and Three contracts @ £9.00 per month so I'm thinking obviously just one contract come next April

According to latest blurb

Access to both networks in 6 months

https://www.vodafonethree.com/.

Better yet, customers don't have to wait to feel the benefits. Within just six months, around 27 million Vodafone and Three customers will automatically be using each other’s networks – connecting them to the best coverage available, at no extra cost.

It will be interesting to see what happens to the MVNO's such as Honest and also to the Scancom data only sims..

But could be interesting to watch, as well as what happens to billing and migration of platforms, as this seems to be nemisis of all networks

Prices are supposed to held for three years ; it seems inevitable that, at some point, many of the cheaper Three tariffs will disappear. 👍

That only applies to direct MNO customers and not wholesale and MVNO customers

Voxi and Smarty will make an interesting proposition. Really they cater for different markets but two MNVO's owned by the same parent company I can't see surviving

I have a feeling Smarty will be the one out of Smarty and Voxi to survive, but can see it been the end Talk Mobile..
