Appalling network coverage Talk mobile don't do 4G that's why Update: Quote 4G signal Sometimes we’re asked why we don’t have 4G signal. Well, it's really a matter of timing. As a fair-minded value brand, we'll offer 4G once it's available to everybody in the UK. We don't expect this will be too long and we'll let our customers know as soon as it's an option. https://talkmobile.co.uk/about-talkmobile/signal Edited March 18, 2017 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did offer me a 2 quid discount if I signed up for a 12 month deal but I politely declined their offer. I now need to start looking at other options EE seems reasonable.

Davkaus Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) To those countries you're going to get bills through the roof with any provider. Is getting a local sim in those countries an option for you? Maybe even just for data, in conjunction with a VOIP app?

That was my first thought, but i could do without the faff of dealing with numerous sim cards .. Some providers offer daily bolt-ons to your data/call allowances which would help, but there doesn't seem to be one provider covering all the countries I visit.

Guest av1 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Silly question because I'm getting no joy with O2, when you agree a contract, say £40pm for x amount of calls/text/data, is that £40 inclusive of vat? I ask because they are charging vat onto of the agreed tariff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
