What neylscout is
neylscout is an independent write-up of all seven major UK mobile networks — Three, O2, EE, Tesco Mobile, Vodafone, Sky Mobile, and iD Mobile. We try to explain plans, coverage, roaming, and switching in plain terms, without leaning on jargon or sales language.
What neylscout is not — said plainly
- Not Three Mobile, CK Hutchison, or VodafoneThree
- Not O2, Virgin Media O2, or Telefonica UK Limited
- Not EE or BT Group
- Not Tesco Mobile or Tesco PLC
- Not Vodafone or VodafoneThree
- Not Sky Mobile or Sky UK
- Not iD Mobile or Currys plc
- Not an agent, reseller, dealer, or partner of any company on that list
How we try to stay even-handed
Every network gets a write-up of roughly the same length, following the same structure. We pull from the same independent sources for each — Ofcom, umlaut, RootMetrics, Opensignal — rather than leaning on what any network says about itself. No one pays us to feature more prominently or to leave out anything unflattering.
What happens if you get in touch
You'll be talking to our own small team, not a network's support desk. We'll say so straight away. We have no access to anyone's account, can't process a SIM swap, and can't take a payment on a network's behalf. For anything account-specific, the network itself is the only place that can actually help.
Why we leave pricing out
Figures shift often enough that publishing them risks misleading more than helping. We'd rather explain how each tariff works and let you confirm the actual number with the network when you're ready to commit.
If anything here ever reads wrong
If a page ever sounds like we're speaking for a network rather than about it, tell us through our contact page and we'll fix it.
The full version: neylscout (neylscout.online) is run by independent researchers, not by any mobile network. We write about Three, O2, EE, Tesco Mobile, Vodafone, Sky Mobile, and iD Mobile because people ask us about them — none of these companies sponsor us, pay us, or have any say in what we publish. We are not a reseller and we never sell airtime, SIMs, or contracts through this site, and you won't find a single price on these pages, because prices move too often for us to keep accurate. If you ring the number on this site or fill in our form, you'll reach our own small team — never a network's official support desk, and never anyone able to touch your account. Every brand name and logo colour you see here belongs to the company it names; we use them only so you can tell which network a page is about, not to suggest any partnership. Treat everything here as a starting point for your own research, and check the final word with the network directly before you commit to anything.
And on safety: We will never ask you to read out a one-time passcode, your card's security number, or your online banking login — not on this site, not by email, not on a call. Genuine network staff don't need these either. If a call ever feels off, end it and ring back using the number printed on your last bill.
