Mobile Network Comparison

We recently wrote about OVIVO Mobile – the only network in the country that gives that’s completely free to use. For the grand total of just £0/month you get an allowance including calls, texts and data with no contract and no minimum top-ups.

But, there’s more good news as we’ve just been able to confirm that all OVIVO Mobile customers are getting a Valentine’s present this February. Customers using the Freedom 0 and Freedom 5 plans have had their monthly allowance bumped up from 200 minutes to 250 minutes!

OVIVO say that existing customers will find this little present on their next renewal day, and new customers will be able to enjoy 250 minutes straight away. Even better, this is a relationship that will last as the change isn’t just to celebrate Valentine’s – it’s a permanent bonus. So you get an extra 50 minutes to talk to your loved ones, and you can use them all year round! In total, that’s 250 minutes in both Freedom 0 and Freedom 5.

Don’t forget that OVIVO also have data-only deals specially designed for tablets. Also, if you find that 250 minutes completely free isn’t enough for you, there are also price plans with even more included for £10-£20.

Regular readers will be aware that the free allowances on OVIVO have ebbed and flowed over the years. But it seems that OVIVO are doing better than ever at the moment and that they are here to stay. They have proven so far that the ad-supported funding model really works and we expect to be able to rely on them to provide this level of free usage indefinitely.

We’ve also finally published our in-depth review of OVIVO’s full service. In it we go over the history behind OVIVO as a network and the expertise behind the company as well as how their SIMs perform in real-world use. We also compare their rates and signal strength with that of the competition. So if you want to know more (or even if you’re an existing customer) please head over to check it out. We’d also love to get your comments and ratings on your experiences with OVIVO.
