I switched from #BT to #EE (who are in partnership with BT), because I thought I could move my whole family's mobile phone SIMs over.

Guess what? I have to pass a #CreditCheck, even though I've been a reliable customer for donkey's years. My credit rating is fantastic, but the most I can transfer is 3 SIMs. I'll have to wait 3 months for another credit check.

And because I've switched broadband I no longer get a discount on the remaining BT SIM. #WTF

Eeyupp...

compared to the #9EuroTicket which you could just buy with cash on a vending machine and only had to write your name on to make it valid [since it's not transferable] the #49EuroTicket is a massive #downgrade that is #SubscriptionOnly and does shitty #CreditCheck bs.

BOTH are only done to enshure those that would benefit from it can't get it - like poor people with trash #CreditScore|s and kids that ain't eligible for #SchoolBus #ticket schemes.
