Virgin imho

T-Mobile is expensive, Fresh were just crap (last year when I used them) but I've had no trouble with Virgin and they're cheap too!

I think Virgin are great but Fresh seem to have cheaper call and text rates than them, i agree T-Mobile are expensive but i am on them just now as i have just bought a new T-Mobile phone, but im just wanting opinions for if i want to move networks as they are the only 3 i can get since its a locked T-Mobile phone.

ive never used any of them, but i would also think Virgin would be the best as it has some good deals on the costs of texts. I have never used t-mobile, because frankly its a rip-off

I use Fresh and am very impressed. Its not exactly PAYG, more pay monthly in advance

But i get itemised statements, very useful.

They are also the only network not to charge minimum call charge (apart from some contracts)

Virgin wern't bad. Call prices were good but I had to keep topping up nearly £30 a month because I am a heavy texter so i've moved onto o2 Online and have saved alot of money.

Virgin now have text bundles the most you can get is 800 texts for £24 and the least you can get is 100 for £7.50 i think. Its all on their website.

I'd say T-Mobile still...even though I've found out their more expensive, I still liked their service better out of the other two.

Virgin to me felt cheap?!

Not so much the network signal itself...the brand and its reputation.

I'm a classy guy...it takes a lot for me to be impressed lol
