Old style pack renewal

I have an old style pack and have used all my data. I used to be able to renew it early by texting NOW. This no longer works, the only option is to buy an add-on, which is a much more expensive option than I get if I could renew the pack. I don’t want to change packs - I like the £1 a week one I have.

is there any way I can still renew early?

Morning @Lclarkson1

 

Thanks for posting on the community. 

 

Have you been able to activate the pack following the advice you have been given? 

 

Speak soon 🙂

 

Leanne. 

I did both of these suggestions last night but a new pack has still not started.

Can you text BALANCE to 150 and let me know the reply?

Thanks @Lclarkson1

 

In this case, please give us a call on 150 or 0800 079 8586. Our Pay as you go care team will be happy to help you with the pack. 

 

Let me know how you get on 🙂

 

Leanne.

Looks like you can no longer buy the old £1 7-day Data Pack. You're gonna have to switch to the new £5 30-day Data Pack (PACK05) but it still works out at 100MB per £1.

Thanks for the reply. Not going to change packs because I will lose an awful lot of data boosts. Will just have to buy the expensive add ons!
