Pay as you go

This sort of thing annoys me. I know they're bonuses but like I'll top up £10 in a month then it always runs out at the worst time (normally start of a month) then I have to wait an entire month for my bonuses.

They should be applied as soon as you top up (which isn't the case with VM).

Credit lasts indefinitely. You can convert credit to add ons at any point. It's instant. For a very light user I doubt there is a much better deal. That £5 or £10 top up could last months.

I assume that Three add ons can't be stacked, so you could concievably run out of minutes and move onto the 3p a minute rate until the 30 days are up. I've not tried it yet.

On Ovivo - yes plenty of people aren't going to exceed the usage, but if you do it's 8p a minute, 5p a text, 16p a megabyte. If anyone does exceed the usage it could start to sting pretty quickly.

Hmm.. I think I will switch to them and probably link back to them if I find their service good which judging by the replies in this thread I will

Just thinking - An Ovivo SIM could be a nice one to have for an android based satnav where you only really use data for live traffic.

You need to make a call from it every so often to keep it live, I think they do data only cards with a bit more allowance tho, I've just had a look on their website and apparently now getting 1gb for your one off payment of £20, says for nov, not sure if its just for one month or a permanent thing?

Never heard of this company before is it safe to pay by debit card.

Yes I have purchased few ovivo sims using my debit card. Not had any problems.

They do a data only version with 750Mb of data, designed for tablet use.

Ok I've just paid £20 an get £15 credit on my new sim can't wait sounds amazing deal we save money an can even use the data which I never did with O2 because had such a low data limit.

Update
