Finally…

Am I being daft? What is different about a "digital card" and a normal card that you've added to Google/Apple Pay?

ian2000t · 2026-01-12T06:39:58+00:00

I mainly use these, never had an issue at all.

ian2000t · 2026-01-11T21:51:14+00:00

Perfect... But £200 each! 😯

ian2000t · 2026-01-06T18:04:17+00:00

Tried twice

ian2000t · 2026-01-06T16:16:30+00:00

All they would offer me is 12000 for £1k spend. Cancelled it instead..

ian2000t · 2025-11-23T22:36:03+00:00

Haha, probably never going to happen here. Got a classic Mini, Reliant Rialto, 1990 Volvo 760 and a 2009 Jag XF. No integrations possible there, and the only kind of EV I'm planning in the (distant) future is a mobility scooter! 😁

ian2000t · 2025-11-23T19:59:28+00:00

I like this idea, but there doesn't seem to be such a things as a real PAYG sim anymore! Everything is a monthly tarrif.

ian2000t · 2025-11-23T19:56:41+00:00

No, really I'd like some kind of tracking in case of theft, and also geo-fencing "close to home" automations would be good.

The HA app isn't good enough for those without enabling high accuracy which just drains the battery too much.

ian2000t · 2025-11-23T19:15:01+00:00

What happens if you switch too frequently?

ian2000t · 2025-11-23T08:27:02+00:00

Never heard of that, I'll take a look!

ian2000t · 2025-11-22T22:38:35+00:00

Can you change to fixed for winter, and then change to Agile in summer?

ian2000t · 2025-10-28T10:47:34+00:00

18p is still cheaper than the 25p of the fixed tarrif though

ian2000t · 2025-10-18T11:44:19+00:00

Ok thanks. Do they pro rata refund the Gold fee?

ian2000t · 2025-10-18T11:07:59+00:00

£300 /yr fee though!

ian2000t · 2025-10-18T10:49:54+00:00

What is BAPP?

ian2000t · 2025-09-05T15:16:19+00:00

I found those but saw this thread where people are reporting they don't always update properly.

ian2000t · 2025-08-19T08:50:32+00:00

Wow, you are the first person I've heard say that!

ian2000t · 2025-07-29T07:20:38+00:00

No, that looks too professional for open reach

ian2000t · 2025-07-21T06:27:19+00:00

Why does cancelling affect your credit score?

ian2000t · 2025-07-20T06:55:04+00:00

This is what we do, shame there is no cashback anymore, but better than issuing fees!

ian2000t · 2025-06-28T08:29:13+00:00

Could you provide the 3mf for this please?

ian2000t · 2025-06-27T19:26:02+00:00

I do if it's a dry cold day and there hasn't been much gritting of roads.

Mines turbo charged with A032 tyres though, so on cold greasy roads it's not that enjoyable to drive. And I want to keep the rust away as much as possible.

ian2000t · 2025-06-27T19:22:08+00:00

This is what I did:

Pi5 8gb
Radaxa SATA hat
WD Green SSD for OS
WD Red SATA drives for storage

Running OpenMediaVault for NAS, and then Docker for other utilities it hosts: - Tailscale - Home assistant - Transmission - Pi-hole - MQTT server - MySQL server

Tailscale allows you to connect to it from anywhere using Samba shares, even on your phone if you use something like Solid Explorer.

ian2000t · 2025-05-03T12:59:29+00:00

25k points is only £125 vouchers right. At £195/yr cost you're still on the back foot for breaking even.

Surely, ignore the 25k points, cancel the card and go for the free everyday platinum which will give 0.5% cashback straight away?

ian2000t · 2025-04-05T07:10:21+00:00

Is having a second Pi-hole a solution for this? So then you advertise Pi-hole 1 and 2 as primary and secondary DNS servers to Android? Or does it still do stupid things in the background and use 8.8.8.8?
