Beware of the VOLT package - WARNING

[Bobbybiscuit]

I signed up for this package because it was the beat around deal finacially. 

However, I am stuffed now because I upgrade my phone with Virgin Mobile because they want me to take a phone and sim packagewith them but I have a O2 contract which I was effectively blackmailed in to taking to get a good deal. Virgin wont do a phone only deal unless you buy outright. Oh yeah I wish!! 

So the alternative is an O2 deal with phone and sim card as an upgrade. two things wrong with that. 

1) 02 not so good as EE. Takes ages for notifications to come through. One voicemail took day 2 days to arrive!! 

2) I lose the sim deal of £25 all in. Must have a new contract and I would get less for same money.. Not even happy with 02. 

So be careful what you sign up for. I regret it now.

That was not on offer when I phoned virgin Media. The deal as it was under VOLT was all signing and dnacing package with an O2 sim card (thats because of the partnership with o2). If I had a choice I would have had Vodafone as they are a much better network where I am located. However in my case there was not that option. Eaier said than done I am afraid.
