New Things are happening

Today we managed to hit a major milestone in our efforts to improve our mobile bill tracking feature. Thanks to Ben’s efforts the engine is now so fast that once the crawlers have successfully retrieved a bill we can process it in real-time on the site.

So, what does this mean?

Real mobile bills are now treated in exactly the same way as the statistically generated bills we use for our tariff calculator. You can now filter by handset, contract length, and operator as much as you like – the engine will always return a recommendation based on our very latest plans.

Unfortunately the drawback to this is that all our old stored recommendations are no longer available. If you have submitted a recommendation recently you will have to resubmit it. Your new recommendation will be valid forever, and will automatically update as we get new plans. That means that if you bookmark it you can come back at any time to see if there are any new deals that would work better for your usage.

Phew.
