I now have a choice of mobile provider. After being with o2 for so long I have no experience of the others on offer.
Best deal is with T mobile, what are they like ?
Next best Orange
And worst 02

I am worried the coverage and service will be not as good as 02
Your coments please ladies and gents.
Thanks Kev

i have 'three' which is great over most of the contry for racing and riding. changed last year from being with t mobile since 1989 when they were mercury to start with.
c also does well on vodaphone with a good deal and coverage, even at your house kev

its quite good us both being on different networks cos if one has a prob then the other usually has a signal.
both of us had cheap calls when we were in assen this year so good in europe too

I would touch orange personally, had nothing but problems with coverage also they use a hard handover between cell sites and can drop your call.
this is only my opinion though

I have an Orange personal phone and a Vodafone work phone and between the two its Orange every time for me. If you go to the orange shops to sort out a contract they allways used to match any other package on the market from any other provider, i had to ask for this at the time as they don't advertise it.

Cheers,

I am with T Mobile as no one else had coverage at my house.

They have been great. I was on fixed £30 pm then got a free phone upgrade and this year they offered either an upgrade or 1/2 price monthly fee (which I took). Mine has 200 minutes a month thrown in....

Thanks very interesting.
Looks like 6 of one and half a dozen of the other !!

I've had most providers at some time or other, and the best I've had are Orange and Vodafone. I'm with Vodafone at the moment, and they are a touch more expensive but the performance is worth it. I'll more than likely be sticking with them.
