Re: caved in...
If you get the three plan Netflix doesn’t come out of your data so in effect it would use none. I dont know how much it would use otherwise

caved in...

I’ve got this problem now since I got the cataract surgery. Distance vision is great (for the first time in my life) but I can’t read at all now without reading glasses. Have a look at ThinOptics. I’ve got a full frame pair attached to the back of my phone in a very slim case and another set of folding specs on a key ring. They’re not cheap but great design.

I average about 6gb, mainly listening to music over the air wavays and rendering hi-def sv650.org animations Giffgaff 10gb a month (£10), unregistered SIM , VPN, I still have some of the privacy you desire - in fact I've been guising myself as you for quite a few years so I'll have to change that now.

Re: caved in...
Her-in-doors bought me one about a month ago. Not made a call or sent a message on it yet. Used it to check the weather a couple of times.
It might help if I actually gave the number out but even if I do I rarely have it with me, and on two occasions the battery has been flat anyway. Before retirement my company phone was always with me, and almost in constant use - calls, messages, emails, Whatsapp. Hate the things with a passion.

Re: caved in...
Im with voxi as it happens but I don't quite know if setting as a hotpot to share the 4g will be counted as one of the data free apps.
I can watch Prime Netflix Youtube and others in pretty much interrupted 1080p all day long though. I've been with them a while so I've earned myself an upgrade to 20GB/mo and the unlimited socials/Video addon for £15mo, rarely use more than 2gb these days |

Re: caved in...
Think Sims get deregistered if ununsed or activated for 6 months
