PAYG Mobile Deals Website Updated!

My website http://mobile-networks-uk.weebly.com/ is now fully updated with only the best hand picked Pay As You Go mobile bundle deals available.

The main changes are to the very important bundles pages.

This change has been brought about by Three's quietly announced price increase to their very popular PAYG bundle which gets you unlimited data, 300 minutes and 3000 text messages.
The original price was £15 for a 30 day bundle. This has now increased to £20 for the same bundle.

In my mind (and quite a few others'!) this £5 increase has pushed this bundle firmly into the realms of contract pricing - In fact, Three's cheapest unlimited data tariff is £17 a month on a 12 month contract. Whilst this gets you unlimited data and 3000 texts, you'll only get an allocation of 200 measly minutes - and a shocking 35p/minute charge if you run out of minutes!
- Also, don't forget that Three will now increase your payments annually in line with RPI increases, so after a year or so you should really be looking around to check for a better deal.


Giffgaff are also meddling with their monthly bundles from the 2nd of September - 4G will be standard, though the choice of specific 3G and 4G bundles (aka "Goodybags") will be consolidated, leaving some customers with a poorer deal.
- I'll update my website again when those changes come into play.
