T-Mobile new tariffs launched

doing my upgarde and there is a new tariff with t-mobile: flext
worth considering as you pay say £35
and you can spend upto 900 min on calls, or use 2mins up on sending one text

this way, you dont have to "pre-pay" on texts
you can also use your "allowance" on mms
i.e. if you are person who looses their allowance on some months, you dont have to, you can just spend them a different way!

plus they are offering 25% discount on new contracts
but after a bit of haggling they might give existing customers wishing to upgrade (i.e. renew the tie-in) the same deal
they did for me

launched 1 march 2006, so the 25% discount should be good until end of march

    The 25% discount will be good until the end of April apparently (according to some T-Mobile reps in a few mobile forums).

    Best of all, T-Mobile are *apparently* going to introduce new GPRS packages in the beginning of April...unlimited GPRS for £7.50 per month

    Bear in mind they are 18 month tariffs, however the idea is great. If theyd have launched them with 12 month tariffs I image the uptake would have been loads better.

    It would have been better but the amount we've been selling amazes me. Most people have been more than happy to sign up for 18 months as they realise what a good deal it is (plus the 9 - 15 months 1/2 price line rental on top selling handsets helps!).

    Hello All,

    Just renewed my contract with T-mobile. I got the new Flext tariff (Flext 35 - 18 Month contract) for £9.25 a month including VAT. Didn't get a phone but who cares!

    If your due an upgrade, I'd advised you to talk to T-mobile now!

    Thats a brilliant deal, the cheapest I could find was about £15 a month with a Motorola L6.

    I have just spoken to T Mobile regarding upgrade and was offered £10.00 amonth for 300 of peak calls plus 30 texts and a new phone or £5.00 amonth keeping my old phone. So I took the second option and I am pleased with that, If I use the phone during the day I just put credit onto the phone but this way I know my monthl bill will only be £5.00 for 300 ofpeak minutes and 30 texts.
