I am in contract untill october,i have had a iphone3gs for over two years i dont use £37 worth a month any more this looks a good deal for £10 a month.Any decent price for a Phone that has apps etc to buy outright?.
Agree if you can afford to purchase a phone outright these deals are very good. Its worth knowing exactly what you use if you want to carry on with a contract, try this website http://www.billmonitor.com/ gives you a breakdown of exactly what you use and tells you what tariff you should be on
If you're in until October then more than likely the iPhone 5 will be out. You'll be looking at £400 odd quid for that though.
Can't afford that also dont want another iphone.Any cheaper phone you reconmend?.
Just got a HTC one x on contract through Dailaphone for £26 a month for 100 mins (I never ring anyone) Unlimited text and 1.5g internet.
The battery life isn't great due to the 4.7 inch screen but just charge it every night and it's fine.
Cracking phone.
Or the Samsung galaxy S3 is great too.
Better than I-phone and you don't have to pay a bizzillion pounds for the hand set on a cheap tariff. Check out techradar website for in depth reviews and a run down of the best deals around.
The Samsung G S3 looks a good phone.Thats what I don't like about iPhone you have to spend over £30 a month.Insurance is something like £12 a month for a iPhone rip off.
I have a sim with them since the start but hardly ever used it as I couldn't top up via my work mobile scheme. So only used it a few times but managed to double the amount of credit I have on there. Cheap and cheerful and you can earn cashback from inviting others and also contributing in the forum.
They have had a few major outages over the last year as well.
Ordered a sim 2 days ago. Out of contract in september, my mum is giving me her iphone 4 when she's also out of contract. £10pm is an absolute steal and plus there's unlimited internet.
Can't wait to say goodbye to 3 mobile who are con artists.
Been using GiffGaff for a few months now. £10 a month does me. Uses O2 network. There was a problem a month or so back but otherwise very happy. I did try it abroad but expensive- seems you have to use pay as you go rather than allowance from the monthly 'goody bag'.
they're ok, been using it a while, you can top up using o2 vouchers...if you try asking about them in an o2 store they go a bit quiet about it and change the subject!
Perfect for me as an expat who uses a UK SIM for a few weeks a year. Buy a goody bag for 10 quid plus a tenner for overseas texts and it does me for a whole trip. I have to use it every six months or it will expire but as roaming is more straightforward than Thai phone providers, I use it when I travel anywhere outside Thailand so not a problem. NB in Thailand you buy your phones; there are no contract deals like in the UK.
So, I recommend it to any overeas Addicks who are in a similar position to me.
I've been using a T mobile Sim whilst I'm here, and I can't believe how many times I have to keep topping up. its only used for UK numbers, yet I'll do 30 quid in a week. I am on the phone a fair bit tbh. is the tariff rates a lot better with Giff gaff?
My mum has been on t mobile PAYG for years. She recently retired and as I have her a new phone I got her to go on a sim only contract loads of mins and texts for about £13.
She then wanted Internet and they do 250mb for an extra £2.50 a month which they call "basic Internet"
She asked for this and two months later they tell her she owes them about £60 . Had all sorts of rows with them and told them they can stick their contract at the end.
I've been with every network one to e or another and they're the only ones I would never go back to

Think I'll be doing it in October.

It does work abroad but check on the site for the roaming charges. Bottom of the page.... http://giffgaff.com/index/pricing
The only support is via the web site.

Have a read of the forum to see if it's for you.
