Advice needed on right contract
Hiya
I'm confused and need help!!! I am currently on Tesco PAYG and it costs on average £7.50 a month. (top up by £15 a month, and get 500 free texts - the next month I use the £15 for texts instead etc). I also spend £10 every 3 months topping up an O2 SIM in order to get O2 broadband for £7.34 a month. So all in all, just under £20 a month.
My boyfriend has just upgraded with O2 and got a Nokia 5800 for £20 a month including unlimited texts, free web browsing and free home broadband upto 18meg. I take it I can't get such a deal with not being on contract already?
But what can I get for similar amount? I really only need a mobile for texting and web use (free web use would be ideal) and I want to keep my O2 broadband too. Is there a cheaper deal where I could have free web browsing on my phone instead of call time? And could I not get such a snazzy phone without paying extra? My main motivation here is getting a better phone and going onto a contract.
thanks!
