  • Buying a Mobile Phone
    Buying a mobile phone Getting started A SIM card is the small chip that goes into mobile phones allowing the phone to connect to the local network. Making calls in the UK using your own international SIM card is likely to be expensive so you might want to buy a new SIM or buy another mobile phone with a SIM included. It can sometimes be cheaper to buy an international calling card that will let you make calls home from a landline, mobile phone or phone box. You can buy calling cards from the newsagent’s shop opposite the Parkinson Building. Currently, when using a UK SIM, you will not be charged extra fees to use your UK allowance of minutes, texts or data plan when in countries within the European Economic Area (EEA). Some providers may also have offers for usage in other countries such as the US, so look out for this. There are two different ways to buy a mobile phone: pay-as-you-go or a contract. Please read the following information carefully to see what you will need to get started. Pay-as-you-go You can get a pay-as-you-go mobile phone or SIM card very quickly and it is easy to keep track of how much you are spending on calls. You can buy credit online, in supermarkets, newsagents, petrol stations and at some ATMs. You will also find a free pay-as-you-go SIM card for Lebara mobile in your Welcome Pack that includes £1 pre-loaded credit. You may be able to buy a SIM card in the UK and use it in your own phone from home.

  • Broadband and Mobile
    Benenden Parish Plan Communication: Broadband and Mobile Issue 1.1 03/05/2014 Benenden Broadband and Mobile Key Points Broadband Introduction of Superfast Broadband should be complete by March 2015. 96% of postcodes within the TN17 4xx Benenden exchange area will attain Superfast Broadband speeds (25 Mbps and above) Only BT and Talk Talk have their own broadband equipment in Benenden Exchange providing maximum speeds of up to 24 Mbps. Other ISPs use a BT Wholesale connection enabling service at either 24 Mbps or just 8 Mbps (e.g. Sky) WiFi Broadband may be available for some households in Benenden from CallFlow and VFast 4G Mobile services will enable broadband comparable speeds beginning in Benenden during 2014 Poor broadband performance may be due to electrical interference and internal (or external) wiring problems. Mobile O2 have plans to improve 2G and 3G coverage and also introduce 4G services in 2014. Home coverage can also be improved by using a signal booster (femtocell) PAYG SIM cards can be a useful tool to determine the best provider in addition to online network coverage maps. If you decide to change provider your current mobile company will inevitably offer you inducements to stay (e.g. lower charges, improved terms, free femtocell). This also applies to Broadband. Broadband DSL Broadband (Digital Subscriber Line) The most significant (but not the only) factor limiting Broadband speed is the physical distance between the household and the equipment in the telephone exchange. Rural telephone exchange areas tend to be larger than those in urban areas and therefore people are more likely to live further from the exchange and consequently suffer from poor broadband performance.
