    3 Stars Should you relax? 13/08/2006
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Different priceplans to suit everyone

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Expensive call charges if you dont top up large sums

    I'm one of those people who is always open to changing networks if a better deal is to arise, and have therefore had phones on the networks of Orange, BT Cellnet, before it became o2, and then o2 itself, Virgin and T-Mobile (Before and after the name change - why not just stick to the first name, less confusing!) I have however, now been with t-mobile for well over four years, so they must be doing something right! I had been on the same contract with t-mobile for about 3 years, on the everyone 200 priceplan which I don't even think they do anymore(!), and had consistently gone over my bill ... more

    4 Stars T-mobile pay as you go (text appeal) 07/09/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages cheap texts to all networks on text appeal, variety of price plans available

    Disadvantages Disadvantages phone calls expensive, network coverage not brilliant

    I've been on t-mobile pay as you go since 2007 (although I've just gone onto contract with them) and I have been using their price package known as 'text appeal' since the start. From memory t-mobile has something like 3 pay as you go packages - one is for cheaper texts, one for cheaper phone calls and one is mates rates. I chose 'text appeal' (the cheaper text option) as I very rarely call anyone, but do quite alot of texting. So what does text appeal get you? The main selling point of the text appeal plan is that you only pay 3p for each text to any UK network and considering that the ... more

    1 Star T for Trouble 15/11/2006
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages None that I can think of

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Restricted online top-up, staff do not know what they are talking about, expensive phone calls and texts.

    Last Christmas, myself and my partner decided to purchase a mobile phone for my step-daughter. She does not live with us, so it is a great way to keep in contact with us, as well as keeping up with her friends. It's nice to be able to send little texts back and forth with your family and loved ones. We spent some time searching around for a good deal on a phone that she would like - and we opted for a flip phone which had all the usual stuff that teenagers like - camera, polyphonic ringtones etc... The best deal for the nicest phone happened to be on T-Mobile, and I hadn't heard anything bad ... more

    3 Stars Relax man! 03/05/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Same tariffs for all networks

    Disadvantages Disadvantages confusing price plan, no benefits for all being t-mobile

    I was first a customer of one-2-one, back in the days before t-mobile existed when I bought my first phone aged 13, year 2000. During 2002, 2003 (I think, don't quote me on this!), one-2-one changed its name to T-mobile, and with it, the price plans. Price Plans: £10 a month credit-30p calls per minute, any network and landlines 10p texts 5p per minute WAP usage 35p media message Free voicemail £20 a month credit-20p calls per minute, any network and landlines Same as above £30 a month credit-10p calls per minute, any network and landlines Sam as above £40 and above credit a month-5p calls per ... more

    4 Stars Horses for Courses. 13/12/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages 3 price plans to suit different people, not locked into contract.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Usual PAYG disadvantages - Expensive for lots of calls.

    I am a dedicated pay as you go user - I don't want to be locked into a contract and I simply don't use my phone enough to make it worthwhile. Before switching to T-mobile, I'd been on PAYG tarifs with both Orange and Vodafone, neither of which were particularly satisfactory in terms of cost or customer service. I bought a T-mobile SIM card on impulse (for a fiver - although they are now advertised at 50p, so I feel slightly cheated) after seeing their advert for 3p texts and talking to a surprisingly helpful salesman in store. I was later astonished to find that it was actually possible to ... more

    2 Stars The UK's best deal - no longer 28/05/2007
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Simple prices

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Stingy policies

    Today's best deals are pay as you go - contract customers over-pay big time for the handset subsidy - and this is the best value on the market for general calling. But it has been changed recently to be stingy in a way that will upset many people - and I'm presently changing the four family mobiles off T-Mobile. Sorry! Having said that, the great news on this plan is the 12p/min UK call rate. Are you paying 35p for cross-net calls? This is nearly three times the calling for the money. But... When I signed up, the minimum call charge was a few pence. Now it's 10p. So all those short calls cost ... more

    2 Stars AVOID T-Mobile. 19/07/2005
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Simple price structure

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can be expensive, bad coverage

    Their plan is simple, use under £10 a month and calls are 30p a min to everyone. over £10 its 20p and over £20 its 10p per minute. I never use my mobile very often, so it turns out expensive to me. Texts are standard at 10p, 2p cheaper than Orange's equivalent. However, i live in the south east of England, and my coverage is terrible. I lose signal all the time, and im fed up of not being able to make calls. I dont understand it, my mother is on Tesco, which uses T-Mobile transmitters and she always has better signal than i do. This is something i would like to point out with T-mobile, they ... more
