Hi

I'm currently on the virgin sim only £10 a month for 300 mins and 300 texts

but i have terrible network coverage, it is shocking. so i'm thinking of moving and treating myself, and geting a phone with the internet on.

my friend has this phone
http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/shop/mobile-phones/phones/pay-monthly/sony-ericsson/c905/overview/

it says that you get this
Flext 30 (18 months)

<LI class=bestdeal-list>

FREE phone <LI class=bestdeal-list>FREE mobile internet (worth £5 / month) <LI class=bestdeal-list>£140 worth of calls and texts each month <LI class=bestdeal-list>That's 700 mins or 1400 texts or any mix you use
[*]All for just £30/ month
Right again i'm a bit non technical, so does that mean

that i can use the internet anywhere, in the street etc, and when it says any mix you use, can i get so many mins and so many texts, and do i need to ring them up and get them to sort this out. And i know i can get £73 back through quidco with this deal



Or one better, does anyone know of a deal like this but a bit cheaper,

thanks

Quentin

As it's a mobile phone you can use it in the street!

The free internet use is subject to a fair use policy (1Gb a month).

No need to arrange your mins/texts with them, the idea is you can use any combination you like (1 min call = 2 texts in value).

Slightly more expensive, but you get much more allowance if you pay an extra £1.50/month for flext 35 (1000 mins or 2000 texts).

thanks for that,

so it is a good deal, i can't seem to find one better anywhere else, but i'm still looking

There may be no improvement in the reception - doesn't virgin use t-mob?

must be having a dumb day, i just remembered that

i'm having a nightmare with this virgin sim

only got 1 bar on the phone now, and getting error when sending texts

i went through the buying process and it did say that, i could return the phone within 7 days if signal was bad, as i'd done a signal check which came up as very good.

Saint Chris, have u tried sim in a different phone? just in case its the phone rather than the sim

if it is network - avoid t-mobile as u will have the same problems

pearoneys - yeah that deal ended - here are the new ones
