O2 have a contract on for 15.50 that has 200 mins, Unlimited texts but no internet.

Net bolt ons however are £3 for 100mb, £6 for 500mb and £10 for 1GB.

I got the 500mb one bringing my bill to £21.50 and a free Xperia Arc:
Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc - Full phone specifications

The phones you can get on the deal have changed now I believe but still worth a look.

I've followed the example of several people on here to Giffgaff (which runs on the O2 network) as I didn't need a new phone being happy with my iphone 3GS.

250 mins, unlimited texts and internet for £10 seems a good deal to me. I rarely use many of the mins but it's still cheaper than PAYG.

And if you need a phone to go with that, get an Orange San Francisco at £99 plus £20 top-up. You can remove the network lock and install a custom ROM without any hassle at all.

Do Giffgaff do the little simcards to fit the iphones now? Or do you have to cut them?

Anyone ever gone from o2 PAYG to Contract; Twas wondering if anyone had any experience in ringing them up and asking for money off the contracts/if it works/what to say.

Personally i'd go for this...

http://www.dialaphone.co.uk/offer/24VF279008/

300m UTM / 250 Data - 20.50p/mth free handset. obviously no cashback involved but you've got the added security of increased allowances meaning your bill is more likely to be £20.50 p/mth each month

Would rather keep it around the £15 mark tbh; the deal that I posted came to around £23-4 on the o2 website..

Use cashback websites, check out topcashback and quidco, and get much better value.

You still have to pay £21.50 on that contract btw Gwad - the reduced line rental was effective monthly cost - meaning if you apply for your cashback etc usually at 5 trigger points during the contract - like months 6,10,15,20,24

Alot of people forget to do this etc, so if you're good at organising yourself get this - if not I'd go for the one I linked

I just looked at the cashback ebsites, don't really understand it... where do they get the money back to give to you? :S

cheers lads :)

Quidco return any cashback to your every 2 or 3 months (less the first £5 you make per year which is effectively their income for running the whole process)
