If you haven't heard already, I'm thinking about getting a new PAYG phone and I was wondering which network's best?

I'm on Orange and I like the fact that you get reserve calls when you run out of credit - you're never totally out of credit.

I only make a couple of calls a week and rarely send texts, so it isn't really important how much these are.

Which network is best for reliability and customer support?

My previous PAYG phone was on Vodafone and I did like Vodafone Live!

There seemed to be more content than Orange World.

I don't know when you were last on Vodafone Live! but its had a facelift in the last few months, its better than it was.

Its bigger and more colourful.

About a year ago.

I've just noticed Sky Mobile TV on Vodafone.

Is it any good?

I like the look of the News and Sports pack for £5 a month.

I am on three contract as it was the cheapest around, and i like it.. But PAYG options for three wasnt very intresting..

However working for Virgin Mobile, I would recommend them - Plus they are bringing out a newer tariff which looks very nice

I'm on Orange and I quite like the fact that when I top up with £10 in a month they give me 1MB Orange World access and 300 free texts - never got that on my other network.

The TV packs are very good on Vodafone, i have BBC1, ITV and other channels for £3 per month, its there cheaper TV pack.

I really think you'll like it on Vodafone.

You probably already know about Free weekends, Stop the clock and Vodafone Family so i won't go into it, but its 3 more reasons to consider Vodafone.

02 I have been with them 5 or 6 years and have been 98% happy with them and they give you 10% back on your top ups every 3 months.
Some say Virgin and T-Mobile are ok but they only got a 60%-70% covarage in my area.
Orange seem fine so I have heard but as I have never used them I cant say.
A good few seem to like Vodafone. I have never used them but have never been very keen on Vodafone for some reason.

O2 have been doing that for years.
