Uswitch services are provided at no cost to you, but we may receive a commission from the companies we refer you to. If a deal is "promoted" on Uswitch's tables, then it has been lent additional visibility as a result of us securing exclusivity on a great deal, or a commercial agreement to showcase what we believe to be market-leading value to consumers.

Tesco Mobile offers two great ways to get the most out of its network: a Tesco pay as you go tariff and a Pay Monthly SIM only tariff.
Customers who opt for the SIM-only tariff benefit from a choice of three plans with monthly flexible credit, which they can use as they choose.
Other advantages include half-price calls and texts to your five favourite numbers and a one-month contract.
Plus, if you manage to use up all of your flexible credit, you're charged at a flat rate of 20p a minute to all standard UK mobile and landlines and 10p per text.
Pay-as-you-go customers can also choose from three tariffs: Standard Plus, Extra, and Value. These differ in the combination of minutes and call charges they offer, so customers can choose a plan that closely meets their needs.
Customers on both Tesco Pay As You Go and Pay Monthly plans get 30 Clubcard points for every £10 they spend on top-ups directly with the company - that's 3 points per £1.
If you’re moving to Tesco Mobile from another network, you shouldn’t have any problems keeping your existing mobile number. All you need to do is text PAC to 65075 and your network will send you your PAC code. Then, after you’ve signed up for your new Tesco Mobile deal, simply provide Tesco with your PAC code by following the instructions that should arrive with your phone.
