What's the best contract for Blackberry Curve?

arte

Hello,

My contract with O2 has just expired but I'm browsing around and checking for the best deal before getting myself into another 18months contract with them.

I'd like to get a Blackberry 8900 Curve and I wanna use it for emails and calls/sms both in UK and abroad. Which network offers the best deal for it?

I'd also really appreciate to know your opinion on this handset.

Thanks

It may be worth speaking to O2 upgrades or retentions to see what they will offer you.

I have just renewed my contract with O2 and got

Free Blackberry 8900 curve
600 minutes
1000 texts
unlimited data (uk only)

£20/month on 18 month contract.

I am looking for a similar deal.

I don't need so many minutes/texts

300 minutes/500 texts would be more than sufficient. Has anyone got a deal like this at £15/month? That's what I'm looking for.

Can't call them until Feb27th, but would be nice to go into the discussion knowing that someone has had the deal I am looking for already.

Kevin.

Sounds like a good deal, I'll try that.
Are you happy with the handset?

Very happy with the handset, though the keys take some getting used to as they are quite small.

What about Blackberry Bold? Or are they a lot more expensive?

The Bold will cost around £35 a month on 18 month contract. You'd have to pay £50 for the phone.

Just for info, before I took my Blackberry 8310 offer, I was offered the Bold for £25/month/18 months and £48 for the phone, or £27/month for 24months and free Bold.

Same net cost, but no initial outlay on the 24 month deal.

I highly recommend Blackberry Bold 9000. Yes I am a proud owner, but the device is the best blackberry model EVER. Even better than the over hyped Storm!

I managed to get Blackberry Bold for FREE on £35 PCM 18 months contract with VODAFONE. In return i get

£50 waived for the purchase of Blackberry Bold 9000 phone
£70 quid in credit (first four months half price)
200 mins
