    Include pay as you go tariffs

    I don't you my mobile phone much (probably about 60 minutes and 60 txts pm). If the site compared pay as you go tariffs as well as monthly ones it would be 10x more useful for people like me.

    Status: started

    Pay as you go tariffs behave very differently to contracts - We hope to get them in as soon as possible but we want to make sure the site does a great job of representing the particular ways in which they work.

    virgin mobile for bill assessment please

    Status: under review

    Three is next on our task list due to their popularity. Although if you have a Virgin account then keep voting, it will certainly help us prioritise what to work on next.

    Include Mobile Broadband deals as well

    As mobile broadband deals are also sold on contract/pre-pay basis (sim cards+modems), I think they should also be included including a rating of their quality of service(We all know they advertise and say a lot but reality proves otherwise - and this is especially useful to avoid getting stuck in... more

    include email on handset separate from data

    email can be offered separate from overall data allowances and ability to use email on phone is key for many customers. Suggest you separate generic data from email support.

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I will see that it gets to Mac, our resident plan doctor.

    tell us how to deal with 2 phones on same account?

    some of us have two numbers (ie our own and our partners phone) with same provider. Would be good if we can check both numbers using your system.

    Status: planned

    If you can run your bill through BillMonitor and email feedback@optimorlabs.com with your session id (the link we send you in the email) that would be fantastic! We only have a few beta users with multiple accounts, and it takes us some bills before we can train the system to deal with things like this.

    Thanks -- BillMonitor Team

    Let people specify voicemail usage

    Some people use voicemail a lot. This might affect recommendations.

    How about including other utilities?

    Can your engine be adapted to compare gas, electricity and water charges?

    It can, but we want to nail mobile first.

    Let me remove weird periods from my assessment

    I called home from abroad a lot one month which is very unusual for me. The assessment took this into account - it would be great if I could choose to exclude periods from the assessment.

    We actually have an idea for removing periods like this automagically! Stay tuned.

    Support CarPhoneWarehouse online billing

    I review my 02 bill via Carphonewarehouse.

    Status: under review

    I think T-Mobile or Three are likely to be next on our task list due to their popularity. Although if you have a Carphone account then keep voting, it will certainly help us prioritise what to work on next.

    How minutes and pictures are handled does differ per vendor.

    You don't take into account how O2 handles picture messages. Unlike other vendors a picture message will consume 3 texts from my allowance.

    so considering a user with X texts and Y pictures unlike other terifs this equates to texts = X+(Y*3) and not X texts + the cost of Y pictures which I think... more

    Let me pick multiple phones and give me a list of tarriffs supplying any of them.

    Currently you can only choose a single phone, but in fact there are several models that I like, and the only thing that separates them is what they are going to cost me. I'd like to be able to select several phones, and have it give me the best tarrifs that supply any one of them.

    Allow selecting phones by features

    Add a system so that rather than specifying individual phones, you can specify "any phone running the S60 operating system" or "any phone running the Google Android system". Those are the most important. After that "Any phone with a N megapixel camera" and "any ... more

    indicate if unlimited data covers using the phone as a modem

    I connect my mobile to my laptop via bluetooth and then I can get any network services, i.e. email and www. My provider seem to "allow" this to happen and it is a major saving as I do not need to pay for a dongle or additional extras but a colleague of mine cannot do this. I think havin... more

    help me to choose my contract based on signal strength

    For people who live outside cities, signal strength can be a deciding factor in choosing a contract. Could BillMonitor search according to this somehow?

    Add Family/Friends on Same network effect

    several networks offer benefits for same network users
    eg O2 give users on same network free calls.
    Orange offer a Magic No per 6 months

    When reporting best plans, these need to be included in the assessment comment.. so users can assess impact./choose lower total mins.
