I'm new to 1pMobile and so far I've been impressed with the value offered. I'm a light user and don't need massive data bundles. It's good that there are still networks out there that cater for people... See more

Mobile service is great, the same as my previous EE contract but better price and roaming included. No complaints with the mobile service so far. Would be 5 stars if the 1p website was more stable as... See more

I changed from my existing provider to 1PMobile mainly because I wanted to use the EE network, which has better coverage in rural areas, but I didn't want to pay the EE price. The transfer, includin... See more

Very confusing pricing structure

Very confusing pricing structure. I was with them for just over a month on what I thought was a £15/50gb a month plan...I spent over £61 in that time...not sure how though partly the issue was 1p treating Ireland as a foreign country when other people companies don't (living in Northern Ireland a lot of of time is spent in the south). (Was previously with Sky on their 40gb month deal and NEVER used more data.)

Excellent value and signal what more could you ask for!

My Dad is so pleased with his 1p mobile sim. His previous network had no signal in his house and had to go outside to make a call.. not helpful if you are elderly, not feeling well and its raining. He now can get signal anywhere in his bungalow and it has improved his experience of mobile phones enormously. Thank you. If my network let's me out of the last few months of my contract I will certainly be joining 1p!

Superb service and excellent value for money. I am so pleased I discovered Penny Mobile after my previous operator let me down. Customer service staff very helpful and sorted out a query I had immediately without any fuss or redirection. 5 stars very well deserved.
