I joined Tesco by buying a PAYG 3G phone a year ago. Signal coverage has been very good and no problems with the service. I did find however that the promised free credit when topping up never happened.
Call and text charges are reasonable but I found using the web on my phone cost a fortune. When I checked why its so expensive I found Tesco charge £4.00 per 1MB of data !! compare this to ASDA PAYG who charge 20p per 1MB shows how much of a rip off Tesco are. I had a load of hassle getting the phone unlocked from Tesco so that I could change networks. The codes they EMailed didn't work so I had to send them the phone to get it unlocked. I've now moved to Asda and am very pleased with this network.
