    Troops,

    Having lost my phone while on holiday last year I have been using my old IPhone 4s. This phone has seen better days, the top button does not work so I have to use the assistive touch function in place of it. The battery is shocking and cuts out at 30% sometimes all of which have made me want a new phone.

    I am currently on a sim only contract as I intended to use my HTC with sim only to save a few quid each month however I lost the HTC and I'm stuck with the old iPhone.

    My my question to the good people of the forum is about providers. I have been looking around and Tesco mobile seems to have the best prices over ee. Has anyone on the forum had experience with Tesco mobile? Any feedback on th signal / internet connection?

    Apologies for the non bike chat but thought I would ask.

    cheers

    Giff gaff are good and cheap, but you have to get your own phone. £7.50 a month I pay and get a iPhone 5s for £80 from eBay. It runs on the 02 network, so any phone unlocked or locked to 02 will work.

    Been using Tesco Mobile for 4 years now and have 3 Phones with them.

    Cheap as Chips and they use the 02 Netwwork, WIN WIN imho

    30 Day rolling SIM only Contracts
    £12/Month, 750 mins, 1Gb Data, Unlimited Txt per Phone

    We buy new Phones for Cash on Tinternet SIM Free, tiz the cheapest way if U can afford the upfront cost of a decent Phone

    Tesco were good when I was with them. Only left because I moved and there was no o2 signal there.

    Cheers all, going to have a look round and see what the best deal is once a little haggling has been done.

    Never had a problem with Tesco mobile, customer service is very good, and some good deals
