Rollover minutes

I am trying to find a new phone deal ....I have only 2 requirements apart from outlay. The phone must be bluetooth Nokia and the contract must rollover. Everytime I get close to nailing something, I find that the contract doesnt do rollovers. Does anyone know of a mobile comparison site that will allow you to search on those features.

Thanks

    If that is really the case that could be why I am having difficulty:rotfl:

    Thanks for answering.

    So I should rephrase, does anyone know of any networks that do rollover on their plans?
  • This was the twist with all mobile providers in circa 2008 ...
    It's also advisable to check how much they charge when you exceed your monthly minutes too. I was shocked awhile back when I exceeded my special deal minutes with Orange and found the 100 extra minutes I went over cost me £35! The next month (and previous to that I went over) I would have had 200 rollover minutes each month! No matter what I said to Orange they would not budge on the 35per Min extra so if I ever have to speak to their billing section I start with 'Hello thieves'! LOL

    I bet the operators are falling over themselves to help you after being called that.....
  • To my knowledge, no network does minute/text rollovers any more?

    However, with (for example) The SIM Only One Plan from 3 being 5,000 texts, 2,000 minutes, 3,000 3-to-3 minutes, 1gb Internet, is it really needed? (£25/mo). There are some other cracking SIM Only deals out there from £5/mo if you don't mind buying your phone outright to begin with?
