Advantages: Different priceplans to suit everyone Disadvantages: Expensive call charges if you dont top up large sums
...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 for about a year or so, when my sister ... ...also T-mobile, and on the T-Mobile Pay As You Go priceplan.
THE PRICE PLAN
Once you get the hang of it, it's quite easy to get used to... here goes...
**Priceplan 1**
£10 per month or less (so if you put £10 of credit on your phone or less in the period of one month...)
Call charges - 30p per minute to any UK landline, any UK mobile, at any time of the day. So basically, call whoever you want, whenever you want for a flat charge of 30p per minute. ...

Advantages: None that I can think of Disadvantages: Restricted online top-up, staff do not know what they are talking about, expensive phone calls and texts.
...note that price plans for T-mobile have now changed and they have different offers).
Everything was fine, we gave her the phone, lots of hugs and kisses followed, and we topped up initially using an e-top up card, as with were with her. We promised her £20 a month top up, as a further part of the present, and therefore we needed to register for online top-up. This was easy enough to do, the only problem being that we did not live at the same address, ... ...wanted. I mean, did T-Mobile really want my money? I was beginning to wonder.
We struggled through with this for a few months, as they happened to be doing a good offer. If at least £10 was used during a month, £10 would be applied free at the end of the month. This, however, ran out in October. Then the problems really started. All of a sudden, the website would not let me top up at all. I registered another card, just in case of card problems, ...

Advantages: Same tariffs for all networks Disadvantages: confusing price plan, no benefits for all being t-mobile
...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
... ...However whenever my charges change, t-mobile send me a text telling me this and so I am allways aware of how much my calls cost. But I think 30p a minute (I am a cheap student who refuses to pay anymore a month!) is a bit steep and I try not to call. If I have to, I get the person to call me back, particularly if its the parents as they have free calls on contract. However there are no benefits from being on the same network as my family, the call ...

Advantages: 3 price plans to suit different people, not locked into contract. Disadvantages: Usual PAYG disadvantages - Expensive for lots of calls.
...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 speak to human beings at their call centres without waiting on hold for more than one or two geological ages, and moreover, human beings who actually knew what they were ... ...unusually user-friendly too - the T-mobile PAYG (Relax) system offers three different price plans, and I was able to switch to the one I wanted in a matter of moments. These three plans are a key feature of T-mobile's PAYG, so here are the details:
EVERYONE
12p/min calls, 10p texts. Pretty standard PAYG rates, useful if you make a mixture of calls and texts to various networks and landlines, but don't use your phone enough to warrant a contract.

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 ... ...I signed up, the minimum call charge was a few pence. Now it's 10p. So all those short calls cost three times as much. And if you study your usage (on-line if you are a PAYG customer, on paper if contract) then, surprise, surprise, a very high proportion of all your calls are under 30 seconds. That made me look around, and frankly I found that by looking hard at on-net prices and the mix of calls and texts I could do much better for the family.

Advantages: Simple price structure Disadvantages: Can be expensive, bad coverage
...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 sell their network usage to people like Virgin mobile, easymobile, tesco mobile and Carphone Warehouse's fresh network. These all charge under 20p a minute for calls inbetween other customers. The cheapest of these being Fresh, where i believe their calls are just 15p a minute to everyone with ...
