I am on Orange. Personally i think Orange has been very good for me over
the years the Network maybe slow but the service is "5 Star"

O2. I've been on it since it used to be called BT Cellnet. I am still on it because they give me money back on my pay as you go and give me free texts and calls even becuase I have like a half priced bolt-on (so half are payed for and half not). Plus they take money off when you buy a new phone because of loyalty.

I get exactly the same, its great!!

Personally, I despise Orange, had problems with them from day one. And 12p for a txt ***.

I also used to be with T-Mobile, untill they started charging 20p per minute for ponecalls on PAYG.

However,..

I think 3 are the worst network you could possibly have. I got a phone on 3 when the network was starting, and it was awful. The minimum top up was £15, and automatically £10 would go to minutes only and the other £5 would be for downloads and txts. The most annoying thing about the top ups is that if you did not spend £15 in one month, your balance would go back to £0 and you owuld need to top up another £15. PAYG my ***! However i do understand that three have changed there price plans for the best, but there are still some problems with getting a signal.

One more thing, Virgin Mobile use the same network at T-mobile, so there just one network with different price plans. Most of the time, virgin sims will work in t-mobile locked phones and vice versa.

Sorry for my long rant at the network Three, but i just had to say it! lol

Enjoy :)

o2 - because it was the only network that I could get my phone on.

Both Virgin Mobile and Tesco Mobile are virtual network operators. That is, they both piggyback on other networks: Virgin -> T-Mobile and Tesco -> o2.

Orange - £10 per month = £4 free internet access, 300 free texts and free evening calls to orange phones =D

And the whole family is on it so I can just like ring them for free when I'm out.

O2 - Came with my phone I have now, and my old phone - So no need to change numbers. And Im with them because most of the people I text/phone are on o2, so i get special rates for that when my free texts run out. And I send at least 20+ texts per night. :]

virgin mobile - purely becuase ive had this number for 3 years and dont want a new one, theyre deals are crap though and it costs loads becuase no one else is on virgin :(

but now theyve given me some bonus thing so i get 5 free texts when i send 5 and 5 mins of free calls when i make 5mins of calls or something like that :P

and yes virgin simcards work in t-mobile phones

and 10p texts is ok I suppose, and now the new 15p a min call charges :D :D all good

Orange because when I got my first ever phone it came on Orange and since then iv never realy had any major problems with them. Their customer support is brilliant and if you buy a phone from them over the phone before 5PM, chances are that phone will be with you in less than 24 hours which is good because I live on an island and some companies tend to use that as an excuse not to deliver quickly.

They also have the best contacts, no other network even comes close
