Data prices. Am I missing something?

[Pest]

Just had a quick look at the Uswitch comparisons for monthly plans, I pay £10 a month on O2 for 300mb of data. There are loads of other providers giving considerably more data for less (£8-00)

 Is there something I don't know, they are big providers like 3 and Virgin with big coverage and speeds. 

Confused..

You can get a lot more for £10 with O2

Hi @Pest 

There are plenty of providers who may give you a better deal than O2. However, a good deal is pointless unless you get excellent network coverage. I stay with them because I go for sales and deals and my network coverage is fine.

You have to shop around and go for the one which suits you best when you consider everything I've said above..

That's perfect, thanks. Immediately came up with 1GB of data for the same cost I am paying. All I need, thanks!

Thanks, I got an upgrade to 1GB by using the O2 dal comparison. Shame they don't just automatically notify you when there is a better plan based on monthly cost. Cheers.

Glad you're sorted

Lol! 

The order system is borked (maintenance) at the moment, I called them and even the operator couldn't upgrade me. I even managed to get the software to give me a better offer! 

 It's vanished now  but i got a screen shot. 🙂
