Why choose a Tesco Mobile phone contract?

Tesco Mobile uses O2’s infrastructure, which means that where O2 has coverage Tesco Mobile does too. That’s good news, as O2 has comprehensive 4G coverage, and it offers 5G in thousands of towns and cities.

But why pick Tesco Mobile over O2? Simply because it often has great value tariffs, which regularly undercut many other networks.

Tesco Mobile is also rare among networks in that it offers 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36-month phone contracts. Most networks only allow 24-month plans, but here you can choose a shorter contract to pay your phone off faster, or a longer plan to pay less per month.

Added extras

Tesco Mobile rewards Clubcard users by giving them 1 Clubcard point for every £1 spent on their plan. Clubcard users can also get reduced prices on some contracts.

Tesco Mobile also caps your contract, so your bill can’t unexpectedly rise through you exceeding your allowances. And the network offers Wi-Fi Calling, 4G Calling, family plans, and plans with up to unlimited data.

Data roaming

Tesco Mobile offers free roaming in 48 destinations across the EU and beyond, and you can use your full allowances when roaming in these places. Most networks either charge for roaming or have a fair usage limit for data, so Tesco Mobile really stands out here.

Tethering

Tesco Mobile allows you to use any or all of your monthly data allowance for tethering (also known as a portable, personal or mobile hotspot), meaning you can get laptops, tablets and more online using your phone’s data.

How can I keep my number when switching?

Simply request your PAC code from the network you’re leaving by texting the word 'PAC' to 65075 from the number you want to keep. Then, once your Tesco Mobile account is active, text 'PORT' to 23424 from your temporary Tesco Mobile number.

You’ll get two texts in reply – one asking for the number you want to keep, and the other for your PAC code. Respond to these and you’ll get a final text with the date that the port will happen – this text will arrive within 24 hours.
