Which mobile network are you on and why? - Page 2

I'm with O2, was on a contract but binned it, just wasn't using the phone enough, went pay and go. £10 per month free texts to other O2 phones, £15 a month free texts and calls to O2. I use the phone so little the tenner can last me two months but you lose the free entitlement if you don't top up again after a month.

I'm on three. Have been for years. They seem to have a reputation with people that they have poor signal but that is true of any of them. There data connection is by far the best of the one's I have tried. I use the 4g when around Manchester and it really is a lot faster.

Tesco mobile. Has to be the cheapest 'cos all our kids are on it

Uses the O2 network so no coverage problems.

I'm with EE but had been on Orange forever, only moving when I upgraded from an iPhone 5 to a Samsung S5. I've had the same number since I was 14!

4G signal is fantastic but then again I work in the Square Mile so they're bound to have invested in the infrastructure to attract business customers.

Lucky you can get 3G on a good day but venture off into the countryside which is only a mile away and no signal at all.
Still steam powered down here...

I use o2, used to be on t mobile but the signal was so bad it was unuseable. The house is in the middle of nowhere so there all pretty bad. User the landline most of the time. Mobiles cut out too much.

Currently with O2, but not happy as poor signal. Contact ends soon so looking for another provider, probably back to Orange/EE?

May cut it down to £5 per month.

Plus a few of my friends are on GiffGaff which is free for calls and texts, which is very handy especially the ones who like to chat...lol

Was on O2 but now giff gaff ... most of the family on now .. so mostly free calls .. and 5 quids every 3 months top up.

, still on my small pile of referral payments
