What kind of phone do you have?
« on: August 10, 2020, 10:41:13 am »
Mine was a 110 euro smart phone I bought 3 years ago, great phone,use it for calls, texts, google maps, youtube etc . I honestly don't think you need to be spending much more on one in the taxi game. The main reason I wouldn't buy an expensive phone is you may as well have a bundle of money lying on your dash, it is just asking to be robbed if you are ever mugged. no mugger would want my 3 year old phone.

I’ve seen some very expensive handsets in full display in taxis, usually stopped at a set of lights with the window down.

Galaxy Note 9 for work, unlimited everything with Virgin €25 per month.
Galaxy 6 Edge personal phone, Tesco €20 per month 20GB, and more mins and texts than I use.
Would like to switch both to Vodafone, but the right plans are too dear.

Bob. You could move the personal phone to Voda for €20 a month payg..... Unlimited any network calls and texts and 10GB of data. If the 10GB is enough for you you are getting a much better network than Tesco for the same price.

I haven't topped up my personal phone in over 2 years. I only use it if im going out. I divert my calls from the taxi phone to another taxi mates phone, then bring the 2 phones out with me, if any of my mates want me they ring my personal phone, if im looking for them i ring them off my taxi phone.
