Will Orange and T-Mobile merge their networks, so that all mast carry both
networks? If so does anyone know when. Ideally I would like my Virgin sim to
be able to connect to the local Orange mast which has a strong signal.

Why not simply port your number to a Lycamobile 075 sim on Orange?
UK calls 10p per min, and free Voicemail

Eventually they will yes. It's meant to be later this year but no news
about it recently - only the mention on the EverythingEverywhere website
last month.
I'm looking forward to being able to use T-Mobile on my Orange phone.

Lycamobile has the most confusing website I've ever seen. Nowhere does
it say what the difference is between 074 and 075. Nowhere says how
long a top-up lasts. It claims that costs to UK numbers are 1p/minute
yet you are recommending a service saying you prefer to pay 10p
minute.

They are pushing their new Lycamobile plus sim on O2 with more
favourable rates whilst running down support for their old 075 sims
on Orange.

Leaving those who need Orange coverage little choice.
Problem is Orange have always been a reluctant provider for Virtuals.

Lycamobile 075 are easily the best virtual on Orange still offered.
Currently 10p per min UK calls, free voicemail.

OK so it sounds like Lycamobile 075 is rubbish and Lycamobile plus is
cheaper and the way to go for most of us.

If the O2 network is OK for you, i'd recommend Giffgaff.
Half price bolt ons (goodybags) till the end of August and you
can stack another one before the end of that month.

Their free 0800 is useful for callthroughs.

The first choice when picking any deal is the network and
it's coverage in the areas you want to use the phone.
The greatest rate is of no use if you don't have coverage.
