Thinking of switching network!

Basically been with T-Mobile for 10 years and my latest contract is up for renewal. Had no real problems with them but noticed they now charge for voicemail retrieval. :rolleyes:

Currently pay £35 a month line rental and although I don't use all my minutes and texts I'm happy knowing I won't go over that amount but anything about £30 would still be better.

Anyways, I'm wondering if anyone knows of any deals where you get the phone free/cheap with something like a Wii/PS3 for free aswell? :think:

Don't mind signing a 18 month contract if the deal is right and would ideally like the Nokia N96. I know I'm not asking much!

Thanks. :beer:

I'd be amazed if you could get a free N96 and a free Wii/PS3 on an 18 month contract for £30/month.

Cheapest I can see is Mobiles.co.uk on £45/month with that phone.

How many minutes/texts do you need per month? What other phones would you consider? It could be cheaper to purchase a Wii/PS3 seperately.

I have no idea. Worth a try though!

Not sure how many mins/texts. On a flext plan so it's a mix of whatever you use! Would want maybe 500 texts and 2-300 minutes maybe!

If you do chose to switch networks, make sure you can get a decent signal in your local area with the network you want to switch to.

If you want the phone for free, you can get a minimum 400 min/500 txt for £30/month for 18 months on O2 and Orange

I guess you're on FlexT 35 at the moment, which used to give £180 credit (e.g. 450 min/900 txt split)

If you call up retentions, you can switch to FlexT 30 which now gives £140 credit (e.g. 350 min/700 txt split) and they should give you a free N96. You might get a bit more knocked off as well depending on your additional spend.

That should save you £90 which you can put towards a Wii/PS3, not quite free, but probably as good as you'll get.

Yeah that's the one I'm on!

When I spoke to them a couple of weeks ago they wanted nearly £400 for the phone! :eek:
