Advantages: cheap calls, looks cool on your phone "Virgin"

Disadvantages: check the service in your area.

I moved to Virgin by buying a sim card which costs £12.50 including £10 of airtime, so thats a good start. Although the service is 50% owned by One 2 One I have found Virgin to be better all round. You have all the benefits of a contract but with all the benefits of a Pre-Pay package. You can have E-mail to and from your phone using your standard Pop3 account that you use with your ISP, the email service costs just £10 per year with each E-mail sent costing the same as a standard text message (10 pence). Calls are a very cheap at 15ppm for the first 5 mins then it drops to 5ppm for the rest of the day, Virgin even send you a text message to alert you when the calls have dropped in price (nice touch). All the standard services are included and there are even some that you may not expect i.e. listen to the radio!

Where Virgin really shine is there customer support, its superb. E-mails are answered promptly and with the information you require and if a call is made to "The Team" they always seem to enjoy what they are doing and try their hardest to solve any problems fast.
