O2 or Tesco Mobile on Pulse?

[Guest alfabet]

Hi,

I have a Pulse on order from T-mobile, but their 3G reception isn't very good round here so I'm planning to unlock it and use another network.

O2 have the best reception at home and work so I'm either looking at them, or an MVNO who use their masts like Tesco Mobile.

The data packages are:

O2 - £7.50pm

Tesco Mobile - £2pw

Does anyone have any thoughts on what the best option might be? Thanks!

Giffgaff.com - £0pw until 25th May, and they use the O2 network too. If you like use my username as a reference - Georgeelliott. Don't know if you get anything for using it but I should get some free airtime.

Thanks for that... its £2 per week as opposed to £7.50 per month so it does work out to be a little more expensive...

alternatively 3 do a £5 per month data bolt on if you get a decent 3 signal

For £15 p/m you can get unlimited SMS and unlimited data on O2 online PAYG!. I have the SIM and I use the unlimited SMS only option for £10 p/m, but will shortly be paying the £15 p/m due to my recent accquisition of a Pulse - wonderful!.

I don't know if you meant contract or PAYG, but mine is PAYG and I have no regrets. If you are interested, the O2 tariff I am talking about is called "Text and Web".

Thanks! :)
