Can I limit my daughter's monthly bill

superglue922

My daughter wants a contract phone. Are there any deals that sets a limit of say £40 a month. then she has to prepay all calls after that.
Many thanks

I believe some networks used to allow you to put a cap on the bill that could be accumulated per month, but it didn't work for reasons best known to themselves and they scrapped it. Best going in to a phone shop and asking, but DON'T let them talk you into some ridiculously overpriced contract. Sorry not very helpful I know. And why on Earth does your daughter need a £40/month contract?! Have you any idea how many thousands of minutes and texts you can get for less than that?

I think for a limit, PAYG is the only option.

even £40 of payg credit would get you a pile of minutes and texts.

I thought on Flext with T-Mobile you had to top up once you'd used up your allowance? Not entirely sure though x

Someone else mentioned a T-mobile tariff that allowed that earlier on today in another thread but then mentioned that they couldn't see it on their website. So I don't know.... lol

No, that's their U-Fix tariff in which you top up once your allowance runs out.

On Flext you just pay for calls and texts on your monthly bill once your allowance runs out

Ah, I have a vague memory of when Flext first came out of being in a pub toilet with my friend trying to top up her phone cuz her allowance had run out, they must have changed it
