Thinking about pay-as-you-go

By on October 25, 2007 in News

You know I’m getting wound up by T-Mobile UK disconnecting regularly. Not on every call, but regularly. It really is a wind-up.

I’m considering swapping to Vodafone pay-as-you-go.

Strange. I never thought I’d write those words.

No matter how you paint it, ‘pay-as-you-go’ has a reeeeeeeeeeeeeelly bad reputation.

I just don’t know whether arsing around with a series of monthly contracts is worth it. I spend about 200 a month on T-Mobile. I’m more or less ‘committed’ to that because of the price plans I’ve selected.

I wonder… really, wonder… if I swapped to a pay-as-you-go SIM for a month and took advantage of one of the other operator special offers (‘unlimited’ texts if you top up on a Friday or whatever)… what would my bill look like?

Hmmm.

    You’d think spending £200 a month (like we both do) on T-Mobile would get them to take complaints seriously…Obviously not.

    But, Pay As You Go? If I was on Pay As You Go, I’d be spending around £400 a month (and I have unlimited weekend calls too!) – it’s just not worth it, Ewan.
