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.

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  wink

As we pointed out at length on the other thread ^^^.
Really, people shouldn't advise on what they don't understand !
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
