Default Re: PAYG Internet

So, overall, what should I go for - T-Mobile or Orange?

Does T-Mobile ask for you name, address and occupation like Orange
does? I don't like the idea of these companies having my details and
sending me out crap in the mail.

Also, is it difficult to set up the PAYG Internet, or is it already
done for you via your SIM settings?

Thanks again,

Marcel.
