PAYG but have to have big bundle?

[UK_sparrow]

I just want PAYG, whereas what's on offer is more like a monthly contract. Not the same thing. I rarely use my mobile so £10pm is too much. Looks like that is automatically taken, so I would need to try to keep my balance below that. A hassle. Hoping I've got this wrong! Missing network 3,but not option.

O2 want your money month by month whether contact or disguised as P&G .....

I've just spent a month going through all of this with O2. There is no simple PAYG tariff (there used to be) - unless it is very, very well hidden and the live chat people have not heard of it. It always ends up as a monthly payment. Even BIGTALK, which will take your £10 credit as a monthly payment as soon as you use the phone once. I now have an ASDA SIM where you have the choice to have a monthly bundle or not.

The Big Talker is a simple PAYG tariff, but how it operates seems to be causing a lot of confusion. There is no regular payment required with that particular tariff, as was explained in your own thread. But I wish you all the very best with your new provider. That at least is the advantage of PAYG

As we pointed out at length on the other thread ^^^.
Really, people shouldn't advise on what they don't understand !
