the important stuff
Here’s a summary of some important terms:
- On our subscriptions your inclusive allowance covers standard mainland UK calls, texts and data and roaming within the EU and selected destinations for periodic travel, subject to our Fair Usage Guidelines. Special numbers and services (such as roaming charges, international calls, premium rate numbers and some 08 numbers) are not included. Sometimes the allowances may change, but we’ll always let you know in advance if they do. Check honestmobile.co.uk for more details about Charges and our latest rates so you know how much your usage will cost you.
- Our Service isn’t available everywhere in the UK. The Services are not fault-free and the speed and quality of your connection, for example, can be affected by things like the thickness of the walls of the building you’re in, technical issues and the number of members near you trying to access the Services at the same time. We’ll carry out maintenance on the Network from time to time. We use reasonable skill and care in providing you with the Services and will attempt to re-perform disrupted Services when possible.
- Content on your device can sometimes contain minor defects or bugs, so it’s a good idea to always keep your Content up-to-date.
- If we believe you’re using the Service fraudulently, illegally, to make nuisance or spam calls, to threaten, harass, stalk, abuse, disrupt or otherwise violate or infringe the rights (including but not limited to copyright, rights of privacy and publicity) of others or in a way that harms our Network or the experience of others (amongst other things) we will cancel your Service.

the charges
In return for your payment of the Charges we will provide you with the applicable Service.
You can purchase access to the Service by signing up for an Honest Mobile subscription.
You can pay the Charges using a Honest Mobile-approved debit or credit card that Honest Mobile accepts for your first month of subscription, thereafter a Direct Debit will need to be set up. By making a payment you confirm you have permission from the account holder or cardholder to use it.
Free calls are at no extra cost for the first 60 minutes per call, after which the call will be charged using Charges applicable to standard UK mobile pricing.
We may increase or decrease the Charges at any time (including the introduction of prices for aspects of the Service previously provided at no extra cost). Where we increase the Charges significantly for the elements of the Service you are using we will notify you before the changes become effective by email and/or text.
You must ensure your Bank Details on your Account are kept up to date at least 24 hours in advance of application of any attempted charges.
It is your responsibility to ensure your bank, debit or credit card account has sufficient funds to pay for the Charges. We shall not be responsible for any additional charges which may be imposed on you by your bank or card issuer.
We reserve the right to block or bar your SIM Card if we have reasonable cause to suspect fraudulent use of a Bank account, credit or debit card.
We shall have no liability to you in respect of any loss incurred as a result of delayed or incorrect airtime credit top-up, Auto Top-up or Bundle payment.
Roaming pricing applies when your SIM Card is used outside of the UK.
If your SIM Card is lost or stolen:
- It shall be your responsibility to contact us as soon as possible, and to cancel any Auto Top-up, Queued Bundle or Recurring Bundle associated with your Account; and
- We shall have no obligation to refund you in respect of any airtime credit or active Bundle on your Account.
You may be charged to receive certain premium rate text messaging services and multimedia messaging services. We will not notify you of charges for premium rate services operated by third parties.
Unless otherwise stated, a fifteen second minimum call Charge will apply to all chargeable calls made within the EU. Outside the EU a one minute minimum call charge will apply. All calls are charged in one second increments after the minimum call period has elapsed.
Charges include VAT unless otherwise stated.
subscriptions
A Subscription lasts for a calendar month, starting from the first of the month. In your first month, your subscription starts from the moment you successfully make your purchase (i.e. the day of purchase counts as one full day, regardless of the time of purchase, and is included in the monthly period) and the Bundle is allocated to your Account. It will end at the end of the calendar month. Any remaining credit will be pro-rata credited on your next monthly bill in the first month.
Where you have an active Subscription on your Account, each time you use the Service, your Bundle allowance will be reduced according to the duration and type of call/message or the amount of data used.
Standard out-of-Bundle Charges apply where you have used up any of your Bundle Service allowances and continue to use the associated Service. From time to time, Honest Mobile may provide functionality to allow you to purchase a new Subscription early or a bolt on additional services. If you elect to take this option, your existing subscription allowance shall be replaced by a new subscription allowance.
Bundle Service allowances for calls and texts are for standard UK mobile numbers or standard UK landlines (starting 01 or 02 or 03) only. Picture or video messages (MMS) are excluded unless otherwise stated. Call forwarding to standard UK mobile numbers, standard UK landlines (starting 01 or 02 or 03) and your voicemail is included within your Bundle Service allowance. Calls and text messages to other numbers may be charged at out-of-Bundle rates as set out in the Charges.
We reserve the right to remove or vary the terms and/or allowance of any Bundle (activated or not) from time to time where reasonably necessary (e.g. to improve the service you receive or to manage our costs). Where we vary the terms and/or allowance of a Bundle you are using to your disadvantage, we will notify you of this by text message and/or email 30 days prior to the change. For queries/complaints go to www.honestmobile.co.uk/support.
Please note that you will be unable to cancel or claim any refund in respect of a Bundle once it has been activated on your Account. Your legal rights are unaffected.
From your second month of subscription onwards, you’ll receive a pro rata allocation of a 5% annual discount for each year you remain an Honest Mobile Customer subject to any increases in subscription charges. The maximum discount any member can receive is a 30% discount on current retail prices.
Bundle allowance details and associated terms can be found on honestmobile.co.uk.
