Dot MobileI was walking through the student union the other day, where I noticed a stand from Dot Mobile, it's not the first time Ive seen them there, but it's the first time I've really taken any notice of them and have gone home to do some research.
Dot Mobile claim to be able to save students money off their monthly bills, so who are they and what do they do?
Units
Dot Mobile do not have a specific number of texts or calls in your allowance per month, instead they have what are called 'units', basically your calls and texts come out of one pot of units, for instance if you have a tariff which involves 300 units, you can use a mixture of calls and texts to use up them units, one month you could use 175 units on calls, and 125 on texts, where as in the next month if you wanted to you could spend 200 units on calls and 100 on texts.
Tariffs
So that's the units explained, now how many units do you get for your cash? Or most importantly how many calls and text do you get for your cash? Please also bear in mind you can receive a free phone on most tariffs
350 units - £20 1500 units - £35
700 units - £25 1700 units - £40
900 units - £30 1900 units - £45
2100 units - £50
Texts only take up half a unit, whilst calls take up 2 units per minute
Value for Money
It's very hard to say here because every person is different in their usage, but i would recommend not joining the 350 or 700 units as these work out quite expensive and there are better offers out there, but as you move up the scale you get much more value for money, and you students should take a closer look, if you have any questions, drop me a comment or email me
