Just a couple of months ago Three did what other networks are rolling back on, and unleashed its monthly calling plans from data caps. “Unlimited means unlimited,” Three said. Now the network is rolling out unlimited data for its PAYG customers as well.
To get unlimited data Three customers will need to buy a PAYG All in One 15 or 25 add-on. All in One 15 costs £15, and gives you one month of access to unlimited data, plus 300 minutes and 3,000 texts. All in One 25 costs £25 and offers 500 minutes, 3,000 texts and all-you-can-eat data for a 30-day period.
Out now | £15-£25 | Three
O2 is teaming up with Mi-pay to automate your mobile top ups. This means you’ll be able to set an automatic top up through your credit or debit card, and you don’t have to spend a fortune either. Log in through O2, and you’ll be able to set your mobile top up to drop however much you want into your PAYG account on a weekly or monthly basis.
Jonathan Earle, Head of Consumer at O2, said: “We know our Pay & Go customers want to stay connected to their friends and family. This service allows our customers to keep control of their spending but with confidence that they won’t run out of call credit.”

Vodafone is now giving one thousand free minutes to anyone who tops up £10 on Vodafone PAYG. The minutes are for UK calls to other Vodafone mobiles, and will expire after 30 days. If you top up another £10 before the month is out though, another whopping great pile of 1000 minutes os added to the pile, to use the month after. That adds up to a lot of talk time, and should mean that you never run out of minutes.
Of course, it also comes complete with a new Freebees TV campaign. Click through for the video.
