Alex Watson
Senior researcher — UK telecoms and consumer prices
Alex Watson is the senior researcher at Recharge Vodafone, focused on UK telecoms (Vodafone, EE, O2, Three) and consumer-price tracking. Their work involves cross-referencing official price lists, cell network status pages, government-published data sets and consumer forum reports to produce reliable answers to "how much does X cost?" questions.
Alex's research approach prioritises primary sources — official brand support pages, gov.uk publications, ONS data, BBC reporting — over secondary aggregators. Where price data is ambiguous, articles document the range and evidence rather than picking a single number.
