T-Mobile. Free evening and weekend texts and 3p texts in the day.

agree with ryanwilliams479 T Mobile is prob the best for calls and texts on PAYG. calls 12ppm flat rate across the board, 10ppt per text

Tesco mobile extra tarrif is 10p calls any network and 5p texts, You have to topup with £15 to be on the extra tarrif but depending how much you use your mobile this isnt a problem.

If you have or can get virgin media they do the 3 for £30 or 4 for £40, meaning tv channels broadband landline and a mobile sim card, the sim card has 300 mins and 300 txts per month. You have to have it as part of a virgin media package but works out good value imo. Its not exactly payg but its not a contract either because you can cancel the sim anytime you want after the first month as far as i am aware.

I think all the networks charge to speak to CS (on pay & go anyway)
O2 charge 20p/min, the others i believe just charge a flat rate of 20-25p

It's funny when I could hear T-Mobile said I'll be charged a flat rate of 25p or something like that yet its never taken from my credit.
