worriedsik

Hi
Does anybody know how this works ? ( its advertised on there web site )

http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/shop/pay-as-you-go/deals/

i seen it on there web site iam looking for the best deal available at the moment as i wont have my contract anymore as going bankrupt so will be putting mine and my daughters contracts in with the bankrupcy iam in a very bad financial state at the moment so looking to cut every corner possible

i want a pay as you go as i dont use the mobile often & my daughter is going to uni soon she likes her contract but unfortunatly i cannot afford them so we each need something

Anybody have any ideas for me ? i would really apreciate it thank you in advance

How does it work - it says so on the site - you give them £10 a month and they give you "free" texts for life.

Definition of the word "free" has changed from school days I think.

O2 do a good sim only deal (look at dialaphone web site).

you can get 600 mins and unlimited texts a month - £20 a month but you claim back dosh over 4 months and end up effectively paying £10 a month.

One month contracts with 30 day notice periods (think you have to keep the first month). Lose cashback I guess if you dont do it for 4 months.

You top up £10, you get unlimited texts NEXT month.

Rinse and repeat. If any month you don't top up the £10, you won't get the bonus the following month.

You will however be part of the deal for life so the above will always be available to you.

Don't see it as a single £10 and then unlimited texts for life. You have to top up £10 each month to get the deal continously for life.

T-Mobile do one for £15 a month... but its neither of these deals are suitable because its a contract, which she is trying to get out of. PAYG deals dont touch your credit rating.

worried.... have a look at '3 mobile' skypephones like S2.

One off charge for the handset, about £40. Then you can phone each other on skype for life with no top up. Skype runs on the phone, and a call is almost as simple as doing a normal call.

Its a PAYG phone but you are not toping up at all for the above feature.

greyster.....i lost my phone 2 months ago so had to buy a cheap one anyway and my daughter still has hers
i will be going bankrupt soon and got advise on the bankrupcy board in regards to whether T mobile will take the phones back and the advise was probaly not so she ( my daughter ) will still have her phone i kinda hope because she loves it
also both contracts were in my name so she may be able to get something in her own name

thank you
