It's much more tempting to go with the Rolls Royce of networks now.. SIM only as I have a handset....
Any thoughts on anyone agreeing with me?”
The price increases (from All in one 15 to All in one 20), and now the amount of data on the All in one 20 (ex 15) is suddenly now limited.
Can one really be sure now that there won’t be another price hike and data reduction of the now All In One 20 a few months further down the line?
20.00 for AYCE data on PAYG after they increased the price of it was fine. But now you are forced to pay a second extra fiver for the second time in the space of a few months if you want to still receive AYCE data but also receive an extra 200 minutes worth of calls that you are unlikely to ever use.
12GB of data per month for AYCE data on PAYG for 20.00, you may think still that’s fine nobody else does it on a permanent basis (it still more than meets most peoples needs on PAYG from the 31st), but the seeds seem to have been sown now of further and further data reductions and price hikes on the former All In One 15 package.
I don’t wish what was the All In One 15 eventually becoming the All In One 25 with a limit of 6GB of data on offer at a later date, and then a later date still becoming the All In One 30 with a 3GB data limit. I wouldn’t call three competitive if they continually do such things to a very popular plan because it would eventually turn into a very unpopular plan instead.
