  • 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.

  • TRUPHONE SIM Registration Instructions
    TRUPHONE SIM Registration Instructions Note: These instructions are provided to assist in the registration of TruPhone SIM cards which may be included with certain Haute Solution’s products. Be aware that TruPhone may change their procedures at any time and their online or printed instructions should be used as the ultimate authority. A phone number needs to be associated with your device before you can set up your security and authentication. Your Haute Solution’s product may come with a TRUPHONE SIM pre-installed. Before you can use the device, you will need to set up a TruPhone Account, select a Phone Number for your device, and then Activate the SIM. Although the TruPhone SMS rates are very competitive (Incoming SMS = FREE, Outgoing SMS = $0.10 each), you do NOT have to use the SIM card (or service) provided with the device. If you wish to use a different SIM card, from another supplier, simply replace the pre-installed SIM card with one of your choosing. You must also ensure that no PIN lock code is set on your SIM card. The following steps outline the process to set up an account with TruPhone and Activate the SIM which is pre-installed in your device: (These steps are current at the time this document was developed). 1. Locate the TruPhone documentation packet that is included with your kit. Inside the doc packet you will find the original SIM distribution card. It is about the size of a credit card and the SIM card has already been removed and installed in your device 2.

    20200316105259 Kansas Corporation Commission THE STATE CORPORATION COMMISSION OF THE STATE OF KANSAS Before Commissioners: Susan K. Duffy, Chair Shari Feist Albrecht Dwight D. Keen In the Matter of Addressing the COVID-19 ) Pandemic in the State of Kansas. ) Docket No. 20-GIMX-393-MIS EMERGENCY ORDER SUSPENDING DISCONNECTS This matter comes before the State Corporation Commission of the State of Kansas (Commission). Having reviewed the public record, the Commission makes the following findings: . 1. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID- 19 virus a pandemic. On March 12, 2020, Governor Kelly issued an emergency declaration for the State of Kansas in response to COVID-19, authorizing the use of state resources and personnel to assist with response and recovery operations in affected counties. On March 13, 2020, President Trump declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency. As a result of the actions by the WHO, Governor Kelly, and the President of the United States, the Commission exercises its emergency powers under K.S.A. 77-536(b) to prevent or avoid the immediate danger to the public health, safety or welfare, and directs all public utilities under the Commission's authority to suspend the practice of disconnecting service for non-payment while customers and communities are experiencing potential hardship from the COVID-19 virus. 2. Several utilities have already voluntarily suspended disconnects due to the pandemic. The Commission extends its gratitude to those utilities. 3. Pursuant to K.S.A. 77-536(d), this order is effective immediately. The suspension of disconnecting service will remain in effect until April 15, 2020.
