Difference between "Rolling Plan" & "Big Bundles"?

[CJME]

Hi,

I was going to get a contract £8 25GB data per month

My contract was refused

Can I get a "Rolling Plan" or "Big Bundles" pay as you go?

What's the difference?

You seem keen to join O2. Just to say that O2's PAYG is like stepping back in time. There is no 5G, no Voice over 4G and no WiFi Calling to name a few conditions.

You also said giffgaff was bad in your area so O2 will be equally poor as it's the same network.

@CJME 

If you get a Big Bundle SIM and put £10 of credit onto it via a voucher, you can have unlimited calls and texts and 8Gb of data for 30 days. 

That will give you plenty of opportunity to test the O2 network in your location and to conclude on whether it is adequate for your needs. 

If it isn't, try PAYG SIMs from the other networks.

@MI5 my Mum had O2, went to Gifgaff, had to go back to O2, no problem since

But what are the differences between the Big Bundle & Roll Over? & how r they different from contract?

I've been reading but don't see the difference except pay by credit card???

Same as contract by paying every month but you can leave at any time

Different from contract for which you get WiFi and 4G calling, call waiting, call forwarding etc

On contract you need to take out a 12 month contract to get the same or better data allowances, you get detailed usage each month and can check on a daily basis calls made, texts sent and to which numbers. You can still leave at any time but you would need to pay out for the minimum term remaining

Do check this before making your mind up.....

Use USwitch

https://www.uswitch.com/mobiles/compare/sim_only_deals/o2/

Choose the deal you want

This will automatically redirect you to the O2 website

Just follow the prompts and complete the deal and choose to keep your number during the sign up

Volt benefits will apply if you also have Virgin broadband at home as will possibly a 3 month extra such as Disney+
