tell the VM marketing team to change it to 1,000,000,000 minutes 1,000,000,000 texts it'll bring in more punters. So if they don't allow tethering. what about 4G speeds? |

people want to thether on their phones now. it's 2013. not the year of the brick still. I read somewhere that Three themselves said they're happy for you to download 1,000 GB's a month. 3.5GB makes Virgin sweat? |
Re: Vm mobile price increase
They claim their data allowance is for mobile data, ie mobile phone use only although I doubt they would notice if you looked at just a few web pages every so often but using it daily you would easily hit the 3.5GB FUP limit.
When I moved house and was waiting for broadband to be re-installed I tethered my Three mobile to the computer and laptop and easily downloaded 80-100GB in that month. My galaxy s3 is the older non-4G version so was using Three's DC-HSPDA at around 1.4Mb/s (12mbit) speeds. It made being without fibre broadband totally painless. The Tethering and data allowance made all the difference. |

Incensed at price increase. Nearly a pound more each month. How can I afford to smoke 40 a day and feed the kids.
Has Virgin Mobile no compassion their customers in this dire economic climate. |

Re: Vm mobile price increase
A few people in here are saying why moan its only a few pence. Well This is why im bloody annoyed at this.
My Tarriff is 30.99 per month for 2 years. Basically x amount of that is for the cost of my mobile and x amount is cost of the actual tariff ( as in calls, text etc etc ) Lets say 15 a month is for cost of phone and 15.99 a month for the actual usage. This means when I took contract I paid them 360 for my phone. As they are increasing the 2.9% on the whole 30.99 they are actually now telling me that even though I signed a contract and agreed that I would buy my phone at 360 and pay 15.99 a month for usage they have now decided to increase how much I would pay for my phone. I spoke to someone from VM a minute ago and she actually stated to me that yes the increase is actually increasing the cost of my phone purchase from them. This is unlawful. I will be writing to ofcom to complain about this. I do not mind if they increase the cost of using the phone but to charge me more for the actual hardware that I purchased the day I signed the contract ( and paying for monthly ) is outright bloody wrong. I also asked about cancelling the contract due to the price increase. Now legally I should be able to cancel and only pay remaining months * % of Tariff which covers cost of device but no I would have to pay remaining months * full amount to cancel which means I would pay for usage which I can not use. |

Still too upset about this price increase to go out for my daily 10 Lotto Scratchcards so borrowed £300 from Cashlady (Gutted Kerry Katona no longer the face Cashlady as she went bankrupt again.) and got myself an Ipad from a really nice guy on Gumtree. Sent the cash off today so should getit by the end of the week. Can't wait to get online to do the Lotto as I am sure my numbers will come up. A steal at £150 for the top of the range. It's BNWT. Says he has pal who works for Apple and gets 70% staff discount. Well pleased what a bargain. Decided to splash out on a couple of crates of wine with the rest to celebrate my good luck, got a £40 off voucher through the post and thought too good waste given my current state of mind. Anyone up for joining in my Facebook campaign to see if we can get Virgin to reconsider the price increase, my 10 have already signed up. |
