Information for new Encel customers
Welcome to Encel, one of the fastest-growing mobile networks in the UK. You can go almost anywhere in
the UK and use your Encel phone. Our service now reaches up to 85% of the UK population. With Encel you
have total freedom and can talk, take messages or send text message practically anywhere, at any time.
In a recent questionnaire about mobile phone networks, people voted Encel the top service provider in the
country. We take our customers seriously and want to make sure that everyone receives the services they
expect.
The easiest way to buy talk time on your phone is by credit card. If you haven’t done so already, please let
us know which card you’ll be using. Then, whenever you need talk time, call 440, free of charge, and tell us
the amount you want to buy. If you do not want to use your credit card, vouchers are available from many
stores.
You can also send text messages with Encel phones. These are a quick and inexpensive way to contact
friends. They are perfect for when talking is difficult – when the music is too loud or when you want to keep
something private. Sending a message costs as little as 5p but receiving one is free.
Encel also provides an information service for its mobile phone users. This service gives you recorded
information, 24 hours a day, on sport (all the news, plus the day’s football and rugby results), weather and
finance. Just call 166 from your Encel phone. Calls cost 20p per minute at all times and are charged by the
second.
With Encel you can also receive text messages to remind you of important dates. When you register with
Encel, you should enter your diary dates, for example friends’ birthdays, into a personal calendar. You will
then receive a text message, with plenty of time to spare, as a reminder.
The answer phone service provided by Encel includes facilities for you to record a message. It’s also
possible to change your message whenever you like, so you can let people know exactly what you’re doing.
To record a message on your Encel answer phone, just dial 234 and follow the instructions. When callers
have left messages, it costs just 10p per minute to hear them.
The cost of a call depends on the time of day that you make it. It is normally cheaper to make calls between
6.00 p.m. and 6.00 a.m. However, with Encel, it is possible to choose a different period. You have the choice
of morning hours (7.00 a.m. – 11.00 a.m.); lunchtime (11.00 a.m. – 3.00 p.m.)¸ or afternoon (3.00 p-m –
7 p.m.).
