Talkmobile, British mobile operator with SIM-only plans

Talkmobile is a UK mobile phone operator that focuses its offering on SIM-only plans, meaning voice and data tariffs without a phone included. The company presents itself with the slogan "Real good prices for real-world people" and sells its plans on 30-day or 12-month contracts.

Its proposition is based on unlimited minutes and texts, claimed coverage of 99% of the UK population and automatic access to the Vodafone and Three networks at no extra cost, which according to the company expands the available coverage. The company operates under the structure of Talkmobile Limited, with registered office at Vodafone House, The Connection, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 2FN, and registered company number 04154716.

Frequently asked questions about signing up and porting

The company explains that to join Talkmobile you simply need to choose a SIM-only plan, available on a renewable 30-day or 12-month contract.
