Frequently asked questions
A mobile phone is a portable telephone that can make and receive calls wherever it has connection to a mobile network.
Most digital mobile phones now support a variety of other functions including text messaging, multimedia messaging, internet access, satellite access, Bluetooth, gaming photography and more.
Mobile phones can largely be split into two categories - smartphones and non-smart phones.
Smartphones tend to be powerful touchscreen devices, with lots of different applications and functions.
Non-smart phones often have physical buttons, and are primarily for calling, texting, though some can also connect to the internet and take photos.
Smartphones can be split into two major categories based on their operating systems - iOS (Apple's operating system) of which the latest version is iOS 16, and Android - the latest version is Android 13.
Some smartphone companies are developing their own operating systems separate to these two.
If you're looking for a phone, you can get one with a Pay monthly contract or a Pay as you go contract.
If you're just looking to connect your existing phone to our network, we have a great range of SIM only deals
We also offer a range of other options including Broadband deals, Tablet deals and Watch deals
The 10 most popular smartphones change often, but usually the latest releases of smartphones tend to be the most popular at the time.

What's Battery Refresh?
If our Battery Refresh Tool shows your phone battery is struggling to keep up, we'll replace it. Simply visit us in store and we'll send it off to be replaced, free of charge. Our Battery Refresh covers you for two to three years, dependent on the length of your plan. See terms and conditions

Buying a refurbished phone has a lower carbon footprint than buying a new one
Substantiation:
A life cycle assessment study (Pamminger, R., Glaser, S. and Wimmer, W., Modelling of different circular end-of-use scenarios for smartphones. International Journal of Life Cycle Assessment (2021) 26:470-482) found that a refurbished phone (used for an average 1.93 years) can have a 55% lower contribution to climate change (or 'GWP') compared to a new phone (used for 2.5 years) (according to the study results shown on page 479).
Based on this study, buying and using a refurbished phone can be considered to be kinder to the planet in comparison to buying and using a new phone, because it has a lower negative impact on climate change.
