I have a good SIM-only deal and I was saving up to buy an 8 GB Nexus 4, but am seriously tempted by the new Lumia 520 as it is so cheap and the user reviews I have seen have been very encouraging.

Mobile Internet
I was in a restaurant which offered free wi-fi access. At the time my Mobile Internet was off. I was going to use the free wi-fi access - The Cloud was offered but they required too many personal details for my liking.

Best time to buy galaxy S3?
I'm thinking about upgrading my phone, but rather than go for the newly released Galaxy S4 I assumed there would be a lot of price drops for the S3. So far I haven't noticed too much in the price of contracts for the S3 and S4, will the S3 drastically drop in price or am I just being optimistic? Has anyone found any good…

No minimum term on mobile contract - can I cancel it?
I'm sick and tired by the extremely poor customer service I have received from T-mobile. On multiple occasions, I have called them with basic queries only to be treated rudely by staff, have the phone put down on me etc. I have made an official complaint about it but as I'm in contract they don't really care. It's been so…
