Just to say I recently switched from EE (who are scumbags) to Sky. As part of that while my number did its thing I lost access for a day.

Apart from some minor 2FA issues with other apps the apple side of things was super smooth. Noted the new number, ported things across straight away and did the same when the old number ported across.

It never has been for me. I do check the number in the Phone settings but the last couple of times Iā€™ve switched, even that has updated by itself. I never bother switching off iMessage and FaceTime.

vodafone has the best coverage for me too, particularly in rural areas - never had a problem with their network

Iā€™m impressed that you get personal email from the COO of Virgin Media! Couldnā€™t you use your relationship to get them to drop the price hikes?

This made me laugh - yes Carlo should negotiate for all of us. Iā€™m hoping I can get out of my O2 pay monthly and use Smarty.

I donā€™t seem to have the facility to message you, but I think youā€™ve worked at my work. Can you PM? Just curious is all.

How about now?

137

Is this a subtle ask? Yes you can refer me lol

138

I probably would but I am having an error haha. The one thing that I donā€™t quite like about Voxi is their website is sometimes a bit temperamental and there not being an app, but they are hardly big issues for a mobile network.

Done. I think you can disable it now and may still allow to message

Well doesnā€™t sound like theyā€™re too far apart from O2ā€¦ as long as the service works and the price is right Iā€™m happy.

O2 is slowly getting there. Vodafone has always been a good all rounder.

Three is also worth via Smarty (includes roaming and MMS)

Never been abroad. I was considering opting for the Manila office but that didnā€™t pan out :stuck_out_tongue: (re. Job in PMs)

Me and the Mrs have been using Voxi since a bad experience with Three last year when the stopped me roaming in Portugal. Canā€™t fault Voxi and the signal is reliable and itā€™s been fine roaming abroad when you apply the Euro Pass.

Looks like my O2 cooling off period finished, not looking forward to 11% inflation increase and 3.9% RPI increase in April. Think that is what it said in the text I got :frowning:

Edit: itā€™s 17.3 according to Carlo
