However due to a recent difference of opinion with the Chief Executive of
www.ovivomobile.com when I called him at 11am one Sunday morning on his mobile (when his customer service department were closed all day) about his repeatedly defective mobile internet service (as in for the last four days and when my home broadband has also just gone down) I recently changed mobile provider to Tesco Mobile on a one month contract SIM with 2Gb of data and 750 minutes of calls a month for £12.50 per month.
He may be the Chief Executive but I do not think it is right to call him at the time you said you did. The fact that your home broadband has gone down is nothing to do with Ovivo Mobile and any issues with the Ovivo Mobile service, or any mobile service for that matter, should be reported to the appropriate department.

So I have now started making all my daytime landline calls on my mobile instead of using 18185 as I always used to make nearly £5 worth and this allows me to immediately recoup several pounds per month of the Tesco Mobile line rental. If Post Office Homephone does go down the indirect Access blocking route for some or all of their customers, at the behest of Opal Telecom the wholesale arm of the TalkTalk group, I suspect many people may consider getting a cheap contract mobile instead with lots of minute rather than paying £5 or so per month for Anytime calls to PO Homephone.
Opal Telecom changed to TalkTalk Business quite some time ago.
I don't quite understand the
Tesco Mobile SIM Only packages. That page says that for £12.50 one can have 750 minutes, 5,000 texts and 2GB of data. Yet for £15.00 one can have the same number of minutes, the same number of texts but 1GB of data. Both these options are on 1 month contracts.
