The Retirement Thread

What's this thing called 'sunrise' you speak of. Is it peculiar to Scotland?

Nah we get it in Lancashire as well. 7.30ish today

Tesco PAYG £5/month for 100 minutes, 100 texts, 250mb of data. When I get close to the data limit I switch it off and save for an emergency. It's called Rocket Packs.

I can also change the amount I buy each month. When we go abroad I pay £10 and get 4gb of data.

Works well for me.

I'm with Talk Mobile - £5 a month for 500 minutes / 5000 texts / 2gb data.
I'd rather have less minutes / texts and more data.
I'll have to get on to them to see if it's possible.

Crime update.
8 police at the back now. Forensics kitted up in white searching the immediate area.
Must be a lot more than a basic car theft.

@Dirk nice looking deal. Is it PAYG or contract?

Aparrently, last night, a guy was shot and dumped at the hospital. They were in a black car, which this car is. (Its even blacker now).

Yes, been using Tesco/O2 for many years. I was first attracted to them because you could "cap" the bill, which meant I could provide a Phone for one of my daughters, who has no problem talking her way through 5000 minutes per month, without worrying about the size of the direct debit taken from my account each month!

Over the years I have only good things to say about them On the very odd occasion when the Network has been "down", they have refunded a portion of the monthly rental, without being asked; we have travelled extensively "abroad" with no problems; they even give club card points on the bills, which I can use to obtain discounted Tunnel/Ferry Fares.

We (self, Mrs, and daughter), are on a SIM only contracts £9/month, 5000minutes; 5000 texts 4GB Data.

Just seen an ad for something or other on tv. They're telling us to keep an eye out for a chap dressed in red with a large sack. Erm...
