I have wireless in the house, but want a dongle for when out and about. The only two providers in our area with any decent sort of coverage are O2 and Vodafone, but I've never dealt with either so would like opinions from you lot. Overall, which one do you think is best for coverage and customer support? Cheers!

I haven't had 02, but when I had Vodafone I thought it was good...

Laxie you doughnut - might have helped some people if you'd told them you're living in the 18th century in Oirland.

Sigh.............I gave the two options based on my location and was only asking people's opinions about those two companies. Didn't realise they'd be so helpful in suggesting others as well! Apologies folks, but yes - middle of nowhere south of Ireland and only two to choose from. On the plus side, we do have running water and electricity.

No one's mentioned O2 yet, so I will. My mum uses an O2 dongle. It's a bit flaky. Get a Vodaphone one imo.

I know nowt about Dongles, but I might get one.
Where do you top up your pre pay balance? I guess you can do it online?
How much coverage would top up get me? Does it go on minutes of usage, number of websites visited (like wap) or some sort of download allowance?
How slow are they?
