I currently have a business account as was self employed but no longer. Are there pros or cons to switching to a Personal Account? I have to mobile and two Watch data plans.

@Smythg1 A business account gets you VAT billing as that’s required for VAT purposes after this there’s no difference really.

In the dim & distant past, business accounts had access to a few extra network features that domestic users didn't. Those days are long gone, and if anything, a personal account has advantages because of data sharing now.

Thanks for the replies.

i don’t need VAT billing. Data sharing is more useful. Plus better prices / deals if there are any.
